WORD STREAM (18) GAMES,WE PLAY

GAMES,WE PLAY

******************

 Primitive game-we play,

Is the love- game,

Where start is, devotion,

And end is the same.

We play amid mass,

To claim the top,

The show goes on,

And we never stop.

We play with friends,

And equally with foes,

A life-long game-

The conflict of egos.

We play with a child,

To seek our past,

To probe the innocence-

We have lost.

We play with animals,

With pets; to boast-

Next to animal kingdom-

We are super most.”

We play with Nature,

The whistle we ignore,

That,foul game is fatal-

Knocking at our door.

Luck gives us an Ace,

But option is there,

Life is a single game,

Play foul or fair.

WORD STREAM (14) Cost of happiness

          COST OF HAPPINESS

*****************************

  

 I am glad to attend this party,

 It is in full swing, with merriment, 
  All are dancing and shouting,
Climax of hilarity is present.

People pretend to be happy,

The whole circle, as they seek,

They are happier in advance,

And become happiest, at the peak.

I feel all this is a magic,

Which is live- show, to perform,

All are acting till drop-scene,

To exhibit, the maximum charm.

My' happiness' be the top most,

If it lags; it is a curse,

This happiness is meaningless,

Unless, I compare it with others.

I pay for happiness, to buy the same,

Spending the money is no trouble,

If this happiness is a thousand deal,

The two thousands, may earn the double.

With the bundle of happiness, I come out,

It is raining, in the darkness of night,

A poor boy is dancing on the road,

Mud-clad, bare naked, shining bright,

His dance? no rhythm, no steps no sense,

He is playing with an old rustic flute,

 My happiness is with respect to others,

But his innocent happiness is absolute.

I spread my arms to acquire happiness,

As if-it is any technique,any magic,any art,

I wander here and there to find the same,

I forget- happiness lives in the core of heart.

WORD STREAM (20) YES SIR

YES SIR
**************

(---Once, once only,
Give me courage to say -NO SIR.)
*******************************************


I do not apply my reason,

Here logic is to err,

Simply close the eyes and mind,

And always say –yes sir.

Known as short cut to success,

A square to lift the life,

Where four directions open,

This is number five.

I flow with the current,

In the river full of fog,

And float on the wave,

Like an inert log.

Instant success is my aim,

I am afraid to fall,

Neglecting the will and logic,

I shake head- that’s all.

Can I swim against the flow?

Can I dare to say “NO”?

Can I stand across tide?

Or, bow down and - let it go?

Worshiped are those, who say-no,

For the cause of their mission,

All yes-men are living toys,

Dancing puppets; of exhibition.


Am I always, gone with the wind?
Am I weather-cock,floating fur?
Once-once only -O,SELF- in me-
Give me courage to say- NO SIR.
