poverty
Plight of people
Overlooked by the rich
Verily the selfishness
Eternal greed of man
Raucous vintage
Truly the savage
Yearning for more and more

An army of grief
An army of grief
Knows me well
Rampage and rout
At me it spell
Musings are dead
Somberness spread
Availing loneliness
Quibbling and press
Invidious emotions
Ballistic motions

sparrow And Cat
O sparrow
O sparrow
Either you are week
Or delicate
It does not matter
For flabby cat
She catches you
To eat you up
You are for her
Wine and a cup
You shrilly shriek
Can not awake
Sympathy in the slake

thy Delicate Lips
Thy delicate lips
Thy delicate lips
Ye talking eyes
Yond curly locks
These velvety hands
Cone shaped Fingers
On a Brittle wrist
Milky white feet
And prominent nose
Under lucky forehead
Are well arranged
As a rhyming scheme
In a classical sonnet

I See Dreams
Sometimes, I see
Peace and harmony
Justice and integrity
Sometimes, I see
Love and prosperity
Shaping the destiny
Sometimes, I see
Tolerance and Respect
Among the whole community
Sometimes I see
Goodwill and Equality
Faith and unity
Sometimes, I see
Affluence of commodity
End of poverty

Song of millionaire
Money O money!
Come on honey!
My aim is?
My game is?
Each and every
Cent and penny
Money o money
Come on honey
Will keep you
Will heap you
Don’t astray
From my way
Night prevail
And horror hail
To vale dark
Where skylark
Do not coo
But I boo boo
Will worship
And will sip

Sense of loss
About you I think
Then could not blink
I gaze in the skies
With wandering eyes
Those feelings of love
Why kept I above
I think about the days
Falling of the rays
When do we play
On the ocean’s bay
I sob for the days
Sob for the past
That could not last
Left me all alone
To groan and mourn
The loss of emotions
I mourn and bemoan
Love’s sojourn
I swear of my soul

The Secularism
What love is and what is hate
What is destiny and what is fate
Think not of such ethereal things
Be carefree and carry on the binge
Of thy heart not of your mind
Live a life of special; kind
If you ponder over your fate
Abhorrence for highs it will create
About your destiny if you think
Animosity for usurpers it will link
Arms and ammunitions of thy emotions
Waste not on the futile notions?
Look around you and find love
Live a happy life like that of a dove

I lament the so called liberty
I lament the so called liberty
That has made me the slave
Of my lust and lost me into dust
Oh! I was wife and a celebrity
Then was able to enclave
With my husband in a gust
The awry, times have gone
Boys are there to make friend
I am devoid of husband
Marriage replaced its very form
Dating become the new norm
Gone has peace and the calm
Men devised the novel trends
The love affairs in dating ends
Wife is not there and husbands

The POWERFULL
I am the power
Below my bower
Are decided
The bullet’s shower
I am the power
If you are rebel
But are capable
I would help you
Like the crow’s pebble
I am the power
If you are weak
My help is bleak
Let you not shriek
Due to oppression
I am the power
All kinds of “cracies”
Are my policies
