*********On My Mom's retirement day***********
“Kalyani” -- The modest, simplest, selfless, patience personified, mentally strongest lady I have ever seen!
She can face any challenge and come out successfully.
The hurdles were faced with a smile on her face.
The multifaceted woman performed all her roles perfectly.
Mom you meant the world to us.
Thanks for giving us good education.
Thanks for guiding us the right path.
The list is endless.....
Thanks for all that you have done us.
Our today's joy, luxury, health, strength,
Were drops of your sweat
Which you shredded as blood
Enough living a life for others.
Now it's high time to live for you.
Happy days are here at last.
The days of 9 to 6 are past.
You have worked all your life.
Now just do what you like.
Your ever-loving daughter
Lakshmi

Heart Aching......
Turned a newspaper
Went online to browse news
Switched on TV news channel
Lunchtime chat with colleagues
Talk of the town, Talk of the world
All topics were shaky shooky...
Bad to hear, Hard to digest
Nuisance to imagine
Makes us feel diffident
Though we have Seven Wonders
Though we have heavenly places of visit
Though we own a cozy couch
Though we are in telecom epoch
This world DOESN’T allow perspiring peace
I see a rupture in the eye veins
Waking up with loads of bad news
Sandy Hook open Shoot, Delhi Gang Rape,
Kidnap, Massacres, Brutal Murders, Suicide,
Bomb attacks, Accidents, Divorce, Corruption
Terrorism, Scandal, Protest, Stampede
Where are we marching? How long is this journey?
When will we quench this thirst?
Aren't we supposed to lead a amiable life?
Don't we deserve a secure life with solidarity?
Can we have the faith to return home safely?
Can the children hop to schools with laughter?
May we have smile in the threatened eyes!
May God extend his warm arms to wrap!
May all human being behave with humanity!
Let us adapt utmost decorum
Let us have a good night slumber
Let us enjoy gleam of burnished sunshine
Let us admire the morning glory blossom
*****Pandora***********
Seem to be a Pretty Perfect Pandora
But when you go near,
And try to wear
Each charm is weird,
One is hatred
One is jealous
One is ego
One is cunning
One is false
Mysteriously glitters!!
Teaches you a truth,
All that shines are NOT GOLD
Seem to be a Pretty Perfect Pandora
But when you nigh,
And try to garb
Each charm is weird,
One is odium
One is green-eyed
One is futile
One is sly
One is made-up
Mysteriously glitters!!
Teaches you a truth,
All that shines are NOT GOLD
*******Nitish 5th B'day Invite*************
I felt I was a Xerophyte in a desert,
Till my Little brother joined my life.
I took the pride to announce the world
Hey "I have a Little brother !"
I feel proud to say I named HIM "NITISH"
I was busy pampering HIM.
I was busy crawling with HIM.
Hand in hand we walked together.
Now I am happy to Run, Jump and Play with HIM.
He annoys me, I chide HIM.
I yell, HE hugs.
I weep, HE wipes.
HE teases me but looks up to me.
HE wants to be glued up with me.
Together WE chitchat & share laughter.
Now if I turn back,
Its a quinquennium journey with lustrum of joy.
YES! My dear "Naughty Nitty" turns 5 On Apr 23rd
Please join us to double up the joy !!!
