Poem49. To Be Free

To  Be Free

A parrot in the sky
flies this way that way
in pursuit of food
for herself for child
she goes out wander,
not thinking of hunter.

Another in the golden cage,
walks inside as in rage,
trainer has trained to talk
some easy words during walk
imported food, mineral water
gives with love, the owner dear.

Give the bird a choice of these
we know which she will choose.
Sure the first where she can be
her own master happy  free.
To be free , be ourselves
we do wish but seldom can.
Entered for Thursdays Poets’ Rally week 38

Poem48.Not Happy

 Not Happy 

I am not perfect
and I know you are not
then, why perfection you expect
from me I wonder.

Not happy on me
and my due performance
how can I work, the way in your mind?

The way of thinking different
way of doing contrast
I can only try, to do it your way.

I have tried so hard
now too on the road
but whatever I do
you are not happy.

Poem47. A Dream

A Dream


Dream a home near woods
one to live alone,
with harmony nature
true to my dear self.

no duties,bindings
no sounds,yellings
calm and peace dances
where I do wish to live.

let the wild ones come
as and when they wish
we will sure share
a bond unique of love.

Tigers,elephants,bears
monkeys,oxes deers
names of some of them
who will come home.

Will this wish come true
in this world of chaos
can I find woods where
I can live alone?

Poem46. Believe me

 Believe me

Believe me if I say
I dont have any aim
believe me when I say
I dont have ambition.

Tried to think hard
atleast a small goal
but no I dont have
a wish to hang on thee.

Each day sun rise
as if to wake me up
do chores expected
as from wife mother.

Come the day to end
body will get tired
but mind still wander
where all, not clear.

No better tomorrows
nothing to expect more
each day pass by
without saying bye.

Night when I lay
awake in my bed
I do pray to Thee
let this be my last.

Written for Jingle's POETRY POTLUCK - Aims, Goals, and Ambitions...

Poem.45.The Influence

                                          The Influence



Bricks red made of mud
baked in the furnace hot
turned into strong lot ,
ready to face the weight bold.

Child soft is also shaped
 baking little everyday
shadow of days passed
make you grow by each day.

 Sure we think ,do all things
with our body mind and thoughts,
do we do the things same way
if our background not this way.
The childhood,teens and past
seem so distant dream like,
but  influence, it sure has
on each decision we do make.

Written for the Magpie tales- where we write a poem or short vignette using the picture prompt.
