Poem44.Live in Present

Live in Present

Leaning on an elbow
peering out a window.
View the road nearby
morning flying by.
 
People moving,
vehicles going
children running
horns are sounding

Busy on their own walks
each of them  in journey ahead
what they do,where they go
who knows, who cares.

Want for a bright future
forgets to live todays.
we run,work , gain fortune,
but health deteriorates.

Thriving for better lives
makes us run very fast.
What happens if we decides
sure,do live in present.

Death a dangling  blade
hangs on each one's head
Better for us live today,
tomorrows who can say .

Poem43.Hesitation

Hesitation

Being within home for long
effected me more than I thought
was never aware until recent
when the family tree gathered.

A blow so strong it was
deep down struck so hard.
disturbed I feel in group
worries,will do some blunder .

But for that day I knew
somewhere something wrong
if in this shell any long
will go mad, thought rang .

A healthy person ,yes I am,
no visits ,seldom visitors .
Family see, morning evening,
they always move out and in .

Shell of my own creation,
tortoise with me if competition
who will put their head out more?
ha, dear turtle will win the race.

A parrot in a golden cage ,
with mineral water,packet foods,
both of us bothers not
what happens outside confines.

Hesitation to go out mingle
excuses a lot we have.
Man as social animal
why oh! God you created?

Poem42.Oh! Santa where were you?

Oh!  Santa where were you?

Oh! my Santa where were you
we had gathered to welcome you
from dear kids to great grandma
aunties, uncles waited your way.

Around a camp fire we gathered
songs and dances of all kind
jokes,plays all was there
but all was waiting you oh! dear.

Enjoyment in the open ground
nobody went away from there
all the family around the fire
celebrations went  without you.

After midnight when all  tired
each went inside our own houses
we were so happy be together
enjoying with all for  first time.

But then you were on our  mind
why and why you didn't come,
Oh! Santa did you forget ?
or were you  busy somewhere else?

Poem41.Was all these necessary?

Was all these necessary?

Splitting head
bleeding mind
clouded face
confused inert.
 
bleeding body
medicine heals
bleeding mind
how to heal?

mistakes might have done
views two different so.
tried to explain reason
never thought it so grave.

words harsh aimed at me
to hurt to core,in anger.
time subsided the temper

regret only remained then.

every action for each person
there sure is a definite reason.
be ready to hear them proper
don't assume and shower your anger.

now also remains a question
"Was all this necessary?".

Poem40.Yes, I do write

Yes, I do write

Before,
words,sentences unspoken
circled through my mind
thoughts, not so clear
lots of them disturbed me.

Now,
words,flows through hands
to the notepad on my desktop
thoughts,getting clearer
more order,feel calm.

When thoughts comes to me
without any reason,without any order
say, 'I will look,just a minute'
they seem more clearer.

Yes, I do write in my own way,
with my limited vocabulary.
I do fly ,not so very high
but,enjoy the feel of going away.
