Meenas PoemsThings have to be done
a let off would lead to a halt
that be the motivation behind
going with a deep involvement
the factors being pointed out
the figures being worked out
the graph being drawn
the strategies framed with skill
a lot of attention being diverted
the outcome would have been wonderful
if the time had been in favour
so that goes by the belief
be there in the right time
at the right place being vital 
then you catch the opportunity
with that you get off the mark .
To become a judge
men pay money nowadays
with that how do you expect?
law and legal candidly
. 
A man who pays high
becomes a judge with aplomb
using his high office
with an eye on money
Gets he millions at the back of his chair
multifold of what he has paid to occupy
where do you expect?
law and justice in the frame.
Seeking recommendation from the powerful
he deigns the robe of justice
succumbs to the vile practices
was he has to gift handsome rewards.
That which he spends to acquire
has to come back to him in his tenure
the vehicle being his office of a judge
he makes a lot more than what he could
That being so in all circumstances
then where do you expect?
impartial judgement in the court
which turns into a commercial hub.
Court of Law is a sanctum
where there lives the justice
which has to be put in high security
without getting exposed to the guile of currency
The rays of the sun keep falling
with a shine and bind
that enhances the growth
pushing a photosynthetic activity
a great way to expand
and a great means to exhibit
the sun being the giver of light
also contributes to the life
with the sunlight there be benefits
innumerable difficult to enumerate
that be of supplements of vitamins
adds to the rejuvenation
there also be a fund of other outcomes
that go in to make the sun the largest provider
let that be so in the run mostly I assure
now there comes another product from the sun
the solar energy that would bring marvel
as the dependence on man-made supplies getting defunct
A girl in her teens
goes by her fashion
that of wearing everything short
glamorous she looks
with a beautiful face and blonde hair
her skin being so silky with no blemish
and her features looking sharp
she goes about with much fanfare
trying to attract all
that does not look decent
as it is typical of a stylish snob
let her be moderate in dress
with a dignified look and grace
she would win more hearts all along
than being so vanity personified.
It is a long time deliberation
as why it happens only to me
all others get their rights
I being denied of all them right
I
ponder and I wonder
both being of no avail
I sit back with a sigh
blaming myself for all the deficits
only that I can do freely
as others around me go with my share
living happily and joyfully
never thinking of my plight
Oh! that be my misfortune in sight
let that be, I stand up again
with a renewed vigour and thought
let bygone be on the go
let me accept life for whatever it is
as no long could I go and fight
with the age going up with the years
resignation settles in with a lasting feel
might be another few more years
I would be around both alert and agile
living those years with a peace
and with a contentment is my goal.
Stop it said my girl
Taken aback I stood up
Stop it again she commanded .
I became dumbfounded .
Stop it shouted she
I got amused and chuckled.
Stop it she thundered
I laughed aloud .
Stop it she cried
I burst out with a guffaw.
Stop it she wailed
My laughter resonated.
Stop it she cried
I burst out with a guffaw.
Stop it she wailed
My laughter resonated.
Stop it, sobbed my little girl
I got worked up now really
Stop it,wept my little one
I embraced her with love.
Saying 
stop it meekly
she placed her head on me .
Whispering stop it softly
she dozed off peacefully
Placing her on her bed
saw the tears drying up
all over her rosy cheeks
Patting her gently
I cried all the more.
the kids are playing around
what a cacophony they make
shrills
of joy rant around
cries of pain resonate through
with a great willingness
they enter the field
with a greater exhaustion
they depart from the place.
looking at them ,I wonder
not on their enthusiasm
that be found in youngsters
not on the stamina they hold
that to be part of the youth
but on their creativity
how many ways they find out
how many way outs they discover
that too being so small
many of them just the age of six
I feel ashamed of me
having been living long
have not thought of anything new
going by the same procedure
set out by the elders
calling myself traditional and conservative.
Really ,I hold no equal to the little ones
out there causing a cacophony .
The words come out
as we write with ease
jumping out of the heart
processed by the brain
typed by the hand
while the eyes see all in print
the mind reads it with attention
call it proof reading
but before it could finish
certain other topics rise up
he heart deliberates for a moment
as it records them one by one
being a prologue
then a dialogue 
finally an epilogue
all come with such precision
the brains gets halted
the hands ache for a minute
but the heart propounds
more and more with such gusto
that all other faculties sit back
yearning for a break and a stop over
unable to cope up with the poet’s thoughts
but never the heart pulls out from the game
as spontaneity is its by word
there comes with a gush
all the emotions that are recollected
with a delivery great and best.

The blades of grass so far gleaming and sharp shining with dew over them glimmering in the day light looks so pale and brown turned so for no rain withered and haggard they appear in the morning light . A noteworthy sign of prosperity
now to a dull dry coarse yarn render a feel of sadness in the tone there be a strain and a drain imploring for copious rain that play cats and dogs all through signifying a parched lifeless land.

The consent being given
the order being drafted
the draft being signed
the original being sealed
that too in a court of justice
months later there be a rise
there be a call for amendment
going back on every clause
saying this and that
attributing various factors
that escaped by oversight
appears so cheap and deceitful
they are not men in real frame
being chicken-hearted not to be so
they be not right-minded beings
they be not righteous and even minded
their reaction could be termed as
fickle and unfaithful, heinous. and shameful.
