EXAMINATION
Exam Time
No time for play,
Or even to rest.
No time to watch television,
Favourite programmes are all gone.
No time to catch up with friends,
To send some SMS es.
No time to read a novel,
Or laze around with newspaper,
Google and Yahoo, a big Boo!
Orkut and Face book go kaput.
Now, intensive study time,
Grades are the deciding factor!
Other pleasures can wait,
A time for it all will come.
Study table strewn with books,
Time for revising over and over
Till the head spins round and round
Even in sleep, figures and facts haunt,
Exam Time.

ITS NEW YEAR
New Year arriving
time to make resolutions
heart is filled with joy
bitter memories gone off
walking ahead elated

FOLLOW TRAFFIC RULES
Look to the left, look to the right
They did not pay heed
The rules of the road they did not follow.
A terrible noise…..
Crash! The two motorbikes grazed
against each other
Drivers down!
injured legs and hands
Thank your stars!
It did not happen on the main road,
there was no other vehicle passing by….
Look too the left, look to the right
Heed Traffic Rules.
Better to be Mr Late
Than Late Mr.…..

OLD WOMAN
Wearily she walks
sunburnt skin shrivelled and dried
stooped and bent with age
trudging along she ponders
if the night would see the day

MOTHER'S DAY
It's going to be Mother's Day soon
A wonderful day! A boon!
As I think of a present for you
I know that nothing would compensate
All that you have endured for your brood
Adjusting with people in the neighborhood.
Your strictness and discipline
Was used for us to grow into level-headed adults
The values and lessons learnt have
helped us rise whenever we had a fall,
And be sensitive and considerate to all.
While Dad was around
You were a pillar of strength to him
Helping him take the right decisions
Towing in line with him
Following him like a shadow.
Without him around now
With equanimity and poise,
You have managed to
Collect the threads of your life.
Your blessings for the children who live yonder
Makes the heart grow fonder.
(As every mother is, mine is special too. She is not educated in the true sense, yet she has a heart of gold. She is warm, considerate, loving and caring -in short an unsung heroine.)
