By ripping cheeks,
with cold breeze,
with twitter of sparrows,
Autumn came!
...
Politicians - Satire
They preach democracy,
They practice hypocrisy,
...
I am mute
till her song,
entered my flute,
I played notes of beauty,
...
The Prophet- Parrot Astrologer
Under a banyan tree
A parrot-astrologer sits,
...
When I encountered death,
'Ego' Evapourated!
Finally Death delivered final verdict!
All pain for power became in vain
...
Sky filled with stars
Tree filled with flowers
Ocean filled with waves
Mind filled with dreams
...
Soldier’s Wife
She is waiting,
Waiting with eyes filled with dreams,
...
Stone converted to sculpture
By series of strokes!
Bamboo converted to flute
...

Made In India
Made in India
They stirred the smart children
to get ranks,
to fill banks,
to join money race,
to forget humanity trace!
Children are grown up
They don't inhale petals of rose
spends nights with heavy booze
They don't see sunrise,
their elbows raise with sensex raise,
Least bothered about 'East',
tries to settle in the west,
They don't salute to 'National Flag',
Always surrenders to 'Statue of Liberty',
They have dollar dreams,
underneath indian screams,
we are indian,
Mera Bharat Mahan!
Dear Sri Rao The poem is nice one - a true reflection. But bit local for outsiders to follow for many local issues involved. regards Hrushikesha
