Indian Political Tribe!

They administer and legislate
and seemingly sit down to debate
We vote and bring them to 
power in this sorry state!

They shout and brawl
causing progress to halt
They destroy the parliament
for no apparent fault!

They come asking for
 votes and election seats
We fall for their 'promises'
to do impossible feats!

They take our votes and 
corruption rages on
Before the scams are exposed
crores of money gone!

They never speak of reforms
and progress
They only malign the opposition
which definitely does 'impress'!

They are present on our 
doorsteps during election times
They disappear with money and
power without leaving a dime!

Now even criminals sit on
those dignified seats
As now crime and power
perfectly meet!

Do not allow them your
votes for shameful bribes
Beware the antics of
this political tribe!

Our votes,our rights and duties
 are terms which describe 
The way we improve India
and THE INDIAN POLITICAL TRIBE!

I was Born Rich!

I was born rich,with comforts
anything i wished for i got
I had everything others prayed
for and usually sought!

On my 13th birthday i threw a
  party my friends never forgot 
And the older i grew my mother
on me still continued to dot!

I could study any 
course i ever wanted
And the fees for it by my
 mother was eventually granted!

I never liked the house chores
so the servant would do
Never to see the servant's face
i eventually grew!

I  never saw my father
but i never needed him
When my mother and her riches
could fulfill my every whim! 

I went to buy the latest phone
and roamed around the new mall
At the food court i saw, mother
 working at a fast food stall!

Struggling part times and her job
to cater to all my damands
Fulfilling my life by sacrificing hers
making it rich and grand!

I cried when she came home
just right at dawn
To my crying questions her answer was
"I BECAME RICH AFTER YOU WERE BORN"!

Corruption-We are being looted

We are being looted
before our eyes
By a system,that contains
various corrupt ties!

The people we choose
to get our jobs done
In turn ask us to
pay astronomical sums!

The money we pay and the
services we get
Are far below  the
expectations we have set!

The few corrupt officials
keep getting rich
And the poor who pay,
into debts get ditched!

Into Swiss Banks, crores of
black money flows
And 'India is a poor country'
that is said so!

We sell our conscience by
bribing these people
Our one 'NO' across the
system can send ripples!

And  the citizens of India
should support change's waves
We can earn and progress
far more than we 'gave'!

So corruption is a curse
which definitely kills
The neccessity to spread
honesty and goodwill!

This practice out of our
lives should be quickly booted
For because of this
Corruption-We are being Looted!

Chirping,chirping all the way!

Sparrows here, sparrows there
sparrows,sparrows everywhere
And now they seem so rare
for we really do not care!

The sparrows now are
no where in sight
For they are dying out
in broad daylight!

The cell towers and radiation
are killing these little birds
When was their chirping
by us last heard?

The sparrows are dying
for our latest smartphones
Their many species extinct
for this reason alone!

The sparrows are a part
of nature's voice
Their chirping disappeared
in the city's noise! 

One day all of them shall
be gone
And they shall never see a 
new dawn!

But we can still save these
sparrows today
And soon they shall be
chirping,chirping all, the way!

Poetry

Poetry is a road to the heart
it is where the journey starts
To rhyme it you use your head
with all the words your heart has said!

Your heart and soul are into it
as you read it bit by bit
A whole new world, created by it
where everything perfectly fits!

Poets write, with the touch of the pen
waiting for their readers to read it then
Letting their feeling flow with it
magic with verses closely knit!

They write about everything under the Sun
with it they have their share of fun
During leisure when they begin to write
their heart is in a place very right!

A topic to write always comes around 
if you search, it is always found
From the universe you derive inspiration
line by line an entire creation!

Poetry is art some would say
it is here definitely to stay
It is music for the soul
that is poetry's true goal!

Happy World Poetry Day!

On our world we sit and debate!

The temperatures are rising, the
warmest days and nights till date
Global warming  has struck
while we sit and debate!

Our waters and soil,polluted
leaving in our mouths,sour tastes
They keep getting poisoned
while we sit and debate!

Disasters are striking to and fro
their scales of destruction,great
With properties and lives get lost
we sit still and debate!

 Our animals and trees dying
and are left in their pathetic states
As we cut and hunt them down
we sit here and debate!

Our resources are vanishing
with increasing population rates
As consumerism still rages on
we sit here and debate!

Our cities and villages,diseased
are facing a terrible fate
For toxic wastes just lie around
as we sit still and debate!

When shall we all act
and till when shall we wait
Our world is in danger here
as on it we sit still and debate!

Our beautiful world is losing
and it maybe too late
Its fragility maybe destroyed
as WE SIT AND DEBATE!

An Ode to my life-Cheers to me!

I sit in my ultra posh office
upon the city i look
From the 21st floor and reflecting
back the years that it took!

I am 27 years of age
from birth,a lucky one
With abilities and looks
a genius,God's masterpiece done!

The ranker of my school by twelve
the top scorer in college by sixteen
I  went to the great Harvard
on scholarship i mean!

Four years by my tech venture,
earning lots of dollars and rupees
More money was to come
in various, different currencies!

My career reached rocking heights
and Google bought from me
Of course with a lot of money
more than any one had seen!

Since i had nothing to do
to India i came back
I started a new venture
and greatness, was back on track!

Recession hit the markets
for my rivals,too much to bear
But i was to great for it
another success story to share!

The markets and media love me
everyone knows my name
A business magnate of power,
money and international fame!

I look at this city now
a dream my life seems
My Boss shouts from his cabin
and there ends the Day dream!
