The time bound relevance
The grandfather’s death anniversary
Was observed by my father till he lived.
Now it’s no more emotional to us.
So is the Independence Day to us now.

Rely On You.
While you play a game, you don’t pray to God.
While you play a sport, you don’t think of Him.
While you play, you play to your potential.
Your life is your play; must you spend in God?

No Time To Serve
Entertainments extract most time.
Sports and games exhaust energy.
Manpower is spent without growth.
Man has no time for fellow men.

Freedom to India
Freedom to the people
Who lack strength to support
Or defend it outright
Is perilous to them.
Freedom of the adult
Is not fit to the child.
Vincent Churchill was against
Granting freedom to India.
Should I say he is right,
I am not a patriot.

One’s Loftiness
One buys or spends to impress others liked
Or to not impress those who are disliked.
To buy or spend for one’s personal taste
Comes only next and thus comes one’s loftiness.

Causes Of Divorces
Growing with siblings toughens tolerance.
Bringing up children strengthens one’s patience.
As a lone child from the family planning,
People are sensitive to break relations.

The Smooth Transition
.
Grant me loss, but sustainably.
Cause me pains, but tolerably.
Give me shocks but bearably.
Take me, Lord, being unaware.
Give me blows, not violently.
Send me down, not abruptly.
Wear me out, not drastically.
Take me, Lord, without any clue.

The Secret About The Secret
A secret is a burden to carry.
To keep it under a seal is a worry.
Share a secret that is much disturbing,
With someone discrete and understanding.
Burry a secret of who matters you,
If it is harmful in revelation.
Hide not a secret from one close to you,
Even if it can harm relationships
As learning it from someone can harm more
Especially when it is deductible.
Hold a secret about an insult you got.
Hold a secret about others’ weakness.
A man of secret would maroon himself.
A woman of secret would seclude herself.

The Mother Superior
The mother, whose love is for you,
Will never leave you
Because there are many reasons
To give up,
But will find, somehow, one reason
To hold on.
I feel even at seventy
An orphan.

Observe, Instead Of Musing.
On your way when you are idle,
Don’t spend your time in just thinking,
Which might land you in anxieties.
Instead, indulge in observation
Of what would be around you there,
By which you learn new things unseen
And keeps you in tranquility.
To observe is to concentrate.

Be Not Below A Beggar.
Don’t sell service; don’t sell information.
Don’t sell knowledge if you have other means.
If you do, you’ll earn only bitterness
And place yourself lower than a beggar.

Heads And Tails
A head has more options to choose from
And more loads to carry, also with risks.
A tail has a few options, less loads.
To lead without any load is man’s wish.
To evolve without efforts is man’s wish.
He wants choices without confusions.
Be a head or a tail as it suits
Rather than as you wish to become.
Heads fan egos and tails sleep safely.

Loyalty secured, one can be honest.

Be Fair Yet.
To expect one to be fair to you
Because you are fair to the one is
To expect a dog not to bite you
Because you don’t intend to bite it.
Lives consist of preys and predators.
Be fair yet and be cautious as well.

Human Errors
Some I have praised and some I, abused.
Some I have wished and some I, cursed.
My actions went wrong and I got regrets.

Woes Of The old Continue.
Desires shrinking, fear looming,
The old ones are left to themselves.
The old are not heard when they moan
Unlike children whose cries are answered.
Isolation tortures the old.
Humiliations maim the old.
Neglects are borne without murmur.
Body-pains are borne without anger.
I did not know till I grew old
How my grandpa felt his old age
And how my parents felt their woes.
My progeny don’t know my sores.Sep., 2013

No Way Is Ever Good.
I ate an apple a day
And landed in the tooth decay.
I ate tomato for C
And got stones in the kidney.
I ate what money can buy
And ran the risk of attack.
No path is good till the end.
You cannot ever escape.

Don’t Count Before Hatching.
Who would be there to help me in the end?
When would be those fatal days for my end?
Not to take chances, I extra pleased them:
Aunts and uncles; brothers and sisters;
Sons and daughters; more their children.
Even nieces and nephews were not spared.
Friends and neighbours were picked to add in the list.
I did not harvest any seeds I’d sown
As either they left me or I left them.
I pass my end alone in an asylum.

Exercises Wasteful
To convey in dances
The plays of the gods
By signals and symbols,
As if of the Stone Age,
Even after inventions
Of languages in place,
Is a wasteful exercise.
To convey on canvas
The images in mind
With brushes and paints
As if of the Stone Age,
Even after inventions
Of photography
Is a wasteful exercise.

Is Not Man Fortunate?
Lions are kings and held in esteem.
What are their fates when they are old,
Weak, ailing or just handicapped?
They can’t catch preys and die starving.
No one is to feed or care them.
No right to hold or inherit;
No old age home, nor asylum;
The same is to all except man.Oct.,.2013
Ownerships Give A Hold.
I love to plough;
I went for a piece of land.

The land and the wife
Give me a sense of ownership.

One’s connectivity

To one’s unbiased views.

Traces On The Earth
I left no traces on the earth
Before I got my birth. No regrets;

After I leave by death. It’s my wish;

The latter would soon vanish.

Bharat Ratna
He played for himself; he used his best skills.
He amazed huge wealth; he stuck to the game
By getting a long rope from the selectors,
And at last quit it quite unwillingly.
He had made many records hard to break.
He is the youngest to receive the crown
And the first sports person to receive it.
He is not to blame. Then who is to blame?
He has been conferred the highest honour.
