VILLAGE LIFE

 

VILLAGE LIFE

 

 

Infinitesimal aspiration lack lust,

Rustic humans work hard a must,

Accustomed to the vagary of weather,

Cultivation of their culture enamor, (1)

 

Green fields village pond cottage,

Dusty road connect thank amaze,

The creepers, vegetables, flowers,

Backyard deep well bath showers, (2)

 

Cattle, straws collected, a sight,

Patch of vegetable leaves delight,

Potato, tomato, green chili, grows,

Onion, garlic, and cucumber shows, (3)

 

A jackfruit inlet to home curries,

The fresh banana plate is leaf hurries,

Wooden hearth silver bowls plate,

Mustard oil cooking aroma wait, (4)

 

Spices village home cook reminder,

Urban life is different taste wonder,

Fish from ponds or rivers are plentiful,

Hens innumerable eggs tasteful, (5)

 

Milk, corn, fried rice, milk product,

Villager leads lives at minimum cost,

In the village square, there are trees,

Tea shop, wooden bench precise, (6)

 

Place of gossip life enjoys evening,

Back home home late night thing,

Rest peasants sleep no fan beds,

A mattress, oil lamp, life threads, (7)

 

No way, inferior to urban life,

Village festival community sway,

The bond variety of cakes sweet,

Symbol of the people exists neat, (viii)

 

Look at the beauty of the village sight,

The cow herd evening sight right,

Dust glows behind cows, bells ring,

Distant hills, nearby river string, (9)

 

Schoolchildren play on the ground,

Headmaster personality sound,

Respected by villagers to advise,

At night darkness thick reminisce, (10)

 

The utter silence and peace present,

Left village life to city lot resent,

Job forced many of us to leave sad,

The noise pollution city is like mad. (11)

Come June leader as ruler a weaver. (11)

SISTER

 

SISTER

Insurmountable trouble often visits,

Sickness, undone, bedridden defeat,

Laments human wakeful night sad,

Worries more painful children mad, (1)

 

Hospital visit medicines treatment,

Unfinished works, though nascent,

Tear, silent face, sorrow, she observes,

Feathery touch compassion dissolve, (2)

 

She is white apron cap, attends at night,

She alerted, night long presence sight,

Watchful of digital signals or saline,

The curve signal of life drips, define, (3)

 

Tomorrow will be dawn, released, period,

No more sickness, hospital accord,

The time comes to be discharged, good,

Caught sight of sister in tear brood, (4)

 

Her few words, take care, sympathy,

Forgets human, back home apathy,

Those rare moments, life battle sad,

Sister near the bed care no reward, (5)

 

Forgotten the mysterious world fit,

Saving lives, sister fights day and night,

The timely medicine injection jobs,

Unparallel her duty wellness, throbs, (6)

 

Her happiness no one knows right,

A family is saved from disaster, lit,

From the window she observed all,

Today, the sick man released, recall, (7)

 

She remembers those silent nights,

Crying that man family his frights,

No one to earn support family prays,

Her soft touch healing hand sway, (viii)

 

Calm and quiet, she saw life fights,

Innumerable chances lost sights,

Morning family gather socked sit,

Not everybody lucky untimely quit, (9)

 

Sister, today not sad, praying quietly,

Lord helps the sufferer, loving sweetly,

Knew her yet her midnight duty,

Misses her husband, child, security, (10)

 

Sister, her devotion, saving lives,

Precious human life, she believes,

No praise, accolade for her white dress,

Released a patient tearful impress,(11)

AGONY

 

AGONY

Lament trepidation look through,

Prevalent summer heat kills true,

Blinding skylight less cloud clean,

Shade under the tree differentiates win,(1)

 

The hot wind blisters parched lips,

Thirst a glass of water eagerly sip,

Eyes are burning, dust penetrates,

Walking under the sun frustrates, (2)

 

Umbrella of little use heat painful,

Human life to work miseries rule,

Travel on duty distant places sadly,

Lack of sleep life is sufferer madly, (3)

 

The river is dry bed sand quarry busy,

Construction works continue easily,

Observed the laborer, his wife, his child,

Child on a cement bag wife shield, (4)

 

Aluminum bowl rice, water, onion,

Salt chili fried vegetable companion,

Surprise, they smile, defeating summer,

Work their best time money spinner, (5)

 

Got tears, poor man's life winner,

School colleges are closed in fear,

Heat stroke loss of life warning news,

Villages suffer lack of water reviews, (6)

 

Cracked fields open, farmers wait,

Pray for rain comes sowing duly met,

The cattle, thirsty, throng to the pond,

Surprising there is a human bond, (7)

 

Crowded well ponds, village women,

 Summer water scarcity costs mainly,

 Ripen fruits summertime market,

Flushed supper malls juice target, (viii)

 

Cricket mad country summer night,

A million throngs of noise deafen sight,

Hill stations are crowded on holidays,

Children amidst nature dismay, (9)

 

Memorable wait for summer again,

Hill stations mesmerizing train,

Summer heat generates clouds,

Rain only comes after, life shrouds, (10)

 

Squall comes thunder symphony,

Apparent summer heat, not agony,

Invitation for rainfall harvesting,

Agony is sweet-sour to harnessing. (11)

BARBED WIRE

 

BARBED WIRES

Impassioned the day born loved,

Linked family friend pain solved,

New visitors, an honor celebrated,

Education result due calibrated,(1)

 

Gathering ceremony discussed,

Courage, strength, story blushed,

Young man, tall, muscular stand,

Left his parents, calm, withstand, (2)

 

Bear the infinite pain, leave home,

Mother looks at her son, handsome,

Just married, got a child, two tears,

Leaving his town frontier no fears, (3)

 

The call from the armed forces is urgent,

The border is under threat, insurgents,

The train, a coach full crowded of men,

In military dress singing, omen, (4)

 

They shall fight to secure the frontier,

Intricate their planning weavers,

Threading path of progress slow,

Under the grass behind rock vow, (5)

 

Wait patiently for hours search,

Make sure no enemy stays lurch,

Offensive action bird's nest match,

Guards alert, stay forward catch, (6)

 

The hunting fight escape survive,

The fight unfortunate life deprive,

Long miles of border barbed wire,

Military men and women face dare, (7)

 

We sleep comfortably at night,

Fight election long queues delight,

Safe is democracy weaver protect,

Defenders, you mean chess detect, (viii)

 

How many families faced disaster,

Lost their men for life as sufferers,

Earn money, get a job, properties,

Prospered life children securities, (9)

 

But supreme sacrifice gave blood,

The soldier in the frontier is bold,

Weaver with salt from the motherland,

Fight defeat enemy life a garland, (10)

 

Remember his birthday, the pain,

Removed once but revived in vain,

His planning barbed wires secured,

War games fighting future assured. (11)
