Good Morning. Morning, Morning. Good Morning. Morning, Morning Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Good morning,
I too said with the accent on the first,
God morning,
Again said he, good morning,
I too responded,
Morning, morning
And lo, we two morning-morning,
Good morning.

Many people know the etiquette,
The manner of greeting,
Many maintain it not,
Feel awkward in exchanging pleasantries
Or feel goodies,
Keep silent
And greet not
While meeting.

Many Indians rustic Indians know it not
How to sit, how to talk,
How to mix with others,
If not, say you, namaskaram,
Which the modern British girl too can say
Namaste India as the mascot
Of British Airways.

Not the Indian Maharaja
Turbaned and moustached
And dhoti and kurta wearing mascot
Of Air India
Or travel Britain and India
Advertisements
Or those of air hostesses or airport ads.
