A Compendium of 4 Winter Poems & all other supplementary poems. by By Ashwini Kumar Goswami (easy readers TXT) 📕

cadre !
He also helplessly desired and directed outside negotiation,
With the litigant scheduled caste and his local association !
Thus we had to accomplish that having alternative, no any,
We were obliged to settle the battle by paying hush-money,
In order of thousands to satiate even the delinquent defaulter,
Under the force of labyrinthine law upheld at every quarter !
Justice thus seemed to be denied to us all along in the case,
Under the umbrella of an apparently partial law on face !
This amounts to violation of our fundamental right of property,
Which is still being encroached upon by any counterpart entity !
Over and above the dogmas of constitutional right of equity,
Thereby demurely demoralizing our constitutional sanctity !

“I-N-D-I-A”
*********
Literally deciphered and defined She stands,
“INDEPENDENT-NATIONAL-DOMAIN-IN-ASIA”
Hers heterogeneous habitation ever expands,
Despite family planning so observed ex gratia !
If major illiteracy of the nation is made to diminish,
Such huge manpower may be more resourceful,
The more the people are educated aptly to flourish,
The more the country rises enough to be boastful !
It may then help enrich our national wealth viably,
Gradually undoing fiscal fiasco endured invariably !
We people must pledge to convey our knack around us,
To create renaissance among all hoi-polloi ambitious !
SO ALWAYS UP-KEEP THIS PHILANTHROPIC AIM,
IRRESPECTIVE OF OUR STATUS, NAME AND FAME !

4) CORRUPTION
“Illusions Of Eradication”
************************

Contamination, Corruption, epidemic, illiteracy, pollution, poverty,
All are these targets of eradication on priority !
Every old or new Government made merely its agenda,
The lesser is achievement, the greater propaganda !

Most dreadful demon dominantly is corruption,
To bifurcate that is founded anti-corruption !
This evil haunts both inside and outside,
Major portion is vitiated mostly inside !

Beneficiaries of inside are our ministers,
Unmindful of any resultant sinister jitters !
Next category under this evil are ranky officers,
They share the booty with invincible pressures !

Corruption thus being shared from top to bottom,
It spreads just like inside quilt, the cotton !
Outside corruption is lightly like digestive dessert,
Lower level personnel are therefor expert !

Corruption is, hence, prevailing as choice of all together,
So its eradication infeasible, as no one eager to bother !
Total generation being mostly mere money-monger,
As money makes everyone mighty and stronger !

*************


“COMMISSION”
**********
Government when faces strong opposition,
And when it is saddled in a fuss,
It adopts tactics to make people hush,
Seating a Commission is sole supposition !

Though this tradition is no any solution,
But a cunning device to create an ado !
Opposing people left then nothing to do,
For very long, it undoes noisy pollution !

Retired Judges or Administrators,
Any of them of Government’s choice,
Gain re-employment to silent the noise,
Acquiesce assignment as Investigators !

Government and the people then only await decision,
As long as their judicial process,
Calling evidences entails too long a recess,
Repeated extension then avails the Commission !

Decades are gone thus to reach decision,
By then changes even opposition,
Government too changes with fresh supposition,
Unsolved even then stands inquisition !

Commission is hence a powerful precision,
Whether as an Investigator or an agent,
Hush-money is also its another patent,
Both are applied for favour of decision !

When you start a plant or machine,
It’s also called it’s initial commission !
All Commissions need a remission,
In cash or kind to make us serene !

Commission is thus a workable panacea,
Silent is introverted intelligentsia !
In India, elsewhere or beyond Asia,
It may be called an implied ex gratia !

“Private Practitioners”
*********************

Whenever anyone happens to consult a Doctor,
He asks for troubles as does a Proctor !
Save a few people, mostly hesitate with ado,
The Doctor then goes ahead with his own clue !

He writes down medicines with timely dose,
Looking seriously with his frowned eye-brows !
X-Ray, ECG, TMT, Eco-graph, CT Scan,
To be undertaken as early as one can !

In the meantime to take the medicines prescribed,
And to re-visit then on the date as advised !
5 to 10 thousands have to be spent anyhow,
The patient complaisantly obeys as a cow !

Fraternal and friendly relatives are there,
Willy-nilly offering sympathetic flimsy share !
In the second phase of repeating the visit,
The Doctor advises admission to his clinic !

The patient thus falls under sibylline state,
Watching calendar ‘n’ mirror date-to-date !
The patient fears but the Doctor doesn’t fear God,
During practicing without sparing the rod !

Clinical expenses are too exorbitant,
Like a thunder-bolt on the poor patient !
Private Practitioners cherish a lucrative greed,
Unmindful of poverty of ailing Indian breed !

Commission available all the way in the deals,
Which works as a grease to run the rusty wheels !Exceptions are though available anywhere,
Certain veteran Doctors are yet quite fair !

Poorest patients are found there in queue,
Rich patients hence choose elsewhere in lieu !
Why not our Government enforces any such law,
To quash and scratch such practiced piercing claw ?
***************


”BEWARE OF OPPORTUNISTS”
**********************
Whenever we satirize any opportunist,
Chameleon is the name, aptly to subsist !
But if we divert to all other sides,
Opalescent people are spread, besides !

Opportunely, people turn renegades,
So as to gain more lucrative grades !
Main such roles are playing political leaders,
Union Leaders and Practicing Pleaders !

Bootlickers are such notorious elements,
To succeed always to acquire supplements !
The Divine Law is unforeseen destiny,
Facing that all seem quite too mini !

End of opportunists or renegades,
Any day may fall for years and decades !
So......
Give wide berth to opportune bootlickers,
Lest they be never-detachable stickers !
This vigil may make you always easy,
Least fearful, you may then be busy !

“FATUOUS FLATTERY”
********
Powerful corridors are inflated by flattery,
Flattery survives as a chargeable battery !
Arithmetic, algebra and geometry,
All these applied to keep up symmetry !

Flatterers always play a role of factotum,
Subservient are they, losing no momentum !
Top to bottom are falling its prey,
The sun while shines they make their hay !

Fatuous flatterers create a mockery,
Without any hitch to cleanse used crockery !
Also adopt they practice of brokery,
Such is their introverted Naukari !

Wives and children are workable source,
Flatterers serve them to create a force !
Dignitaries for them empty their purse,
As they can it simultaneously reimburse !

All this affects all general hoi-polloi,
Flatterer, ergo, becomes each employee !
Sustained are all people in general,
They die in harness, undergo a funeral !

******


Estranged Spouses
******************
There are several examples of the estranged couples,
Living arrogant and introverted life without scruples !
Obstinate they ever remain among all others in society,
Egoistically remaining aloof to ratify their propriety !
Consequently they are deprived of lures of human life,
As are blissfully enjoyed in living as husband and wife !
People in general jeer at them ever with blinking eye,
Hesitatingly not asking them about any how and why !
Such quandaries are also faced even at top ranky levels,
Upto the length of choosing seats in ceremonies or travels !
They always prefer everywhere their similar alter ego,
Whenever they happen to participate wherever they go !
This is none so desirable on humanitarian grounds,
Such stubborn attitude of theirs yields crackling sounds !
Consequently people shun them away ever willy-nilly,
They have to thus pass their lives inter alia unhappily !

“Tests & Contests”
?+?+?+?+?+?

The idiot box happens to exhibit idolizing of contestants,
By displaying artistic performances of the participants !
On the sets of traditional literary and/or musical stage,
In order to adjudge winners via bilateral media coverage !
A jury of experts on first part mark and preserve rating,
And then to keep final decision via vox populi awaiting !
The latter part concludes with declaring someone idol,
On the basis of majority duly obtained by voting tidal !
Such modus operandi not only demoralizes dogmas of art,
But also leaves aside admitted ethics of academic chart !
If electioneering is applied on such competitive tests,
Then where the sanctity of Many an academy rests ?
Decrees or degrees, if awarded, by majority of vote,
Why then scholars would long for study to devote !
Admittedly elections rarely ever yield fair selections,
For which we usually utter lamenting interjections !

5) RICHNESS/POVERTY
“Gold”
*********

There is a saying ‘Old is Gold’ ;
I say, ‘Gold is never Old’ ;
Reality is that ‘Gold is Gold’ ;
It’s not what is otherwise told !

Rich are those who hold much gold,
As it is always at par sold !
Keepers of gold need to be bold,
Lest they be looted and made cold !

Utility of gold is quite manifold ;
Nation’s currency depends on gold ;
Goldsmiths dominate market-hold ;
Gold may provide you with anything sold !

Though it’s derived from sand and dust ;
Wherever available, glitter it must !
Every nation up-keeping global hold ;
Its gold-stocks ever need be controlled !

Those found its loose care-taker ;
They lose credit of exchequer !

“Money matters”
*************
Virtually, though, it’s a minus money,
Duty-man takes it as surplus money !
We all happen to call it “‘hush- money”,
Minus or plus to adjust, if any !

Hush-money is most powerful element,
Used
