Repenting over his being seen outside office at betel shop !
Swore for never going outside office
And consequently facing remark of “Outstanding” !

"SCOPE OF HOPE”
*************
“Hope is a good breakfast, but a bad supper” !
Follower of this credo seems somewhat duffer !
Where is a will, there is a way,
Optimists always found to so say !
Life starts and continues on hopes,
As hopefully traders open their shops !
Hopes let live everyone so busy,
And make hard-work even some easy !
Pessimists are apt to become paranoid,
Doubtfully piling works that they avoid,
Thereby the works falling into arrears,
Causing in daily life, uncalled barriers !
Hope is only a dose to start,
To keep going always our life’s cart !
It’s thus aptly called a good breakfast,
Though sometimes, a bad supper in the last !
Parents nourish children with good hope,
They provide them with prosperous scope !
Students-Teachers similarly hopeful,
To make their careers ever fruitful !
Doctors-Patients, Agriculturists-Peasants,
Customers-Sellers, Goldsmiths-Jewellers,
Artists-Scientists, Communists-Socialists,
Government-Servant, Supporter-Dependent !
Infertile Couple or Expectant,
Dominant-Subservient, Owner-Tenant,
Desert-Forest, Homeless-Resident,
Independent-Dependent, Parliament-President !
All remnants, Exclusive elements,
None is existent without any hopes !
Hopes thus always appease sentiments,
Enabling us to cross any bars and ropes !
Hope is atop in our Natural Chart,
It keeps us always dutifully smart,
So, remain ever hopeful, never lose heart,
Until Divine Law forfeits our ongoing cart !

“VIRAGO INVINCIBLE”
*****************
I was watching TV, witnessing a cricket match,
A brilliant sixer snubbed by a fantastic catch !
My wife bade me send one any for vegetables
Of our choice and also some eatables !
I had to turn my chair, opposite to table,
Asking her then kindly to fetch my purse !
Subsequent attempted sixer was invisible,
Match was a draw, people began to disperse !
Last these moments remaining unseen,
I continued still facing the TV screen,
Vegetables for cooking were an instant need,
For cricket, I had then paid no any heed !
Came out of kitchen, my dear virago,
Causing fear, as if in vertigo !
Sustained, as I was, by her such attitude,
I kept mum as a device to elude !
Snaky-sensed then my wife came quite near,
I asked her, “What is the trouble, my dear ?”
She didn’t reply, causing same fear,
Left was too little to hear and bear !
Loudly she asked me to leave the chair,
And find what’s happening here and there !
First of all, she showed me the kitchen,
Before she would tell what I couldn’t listen !
The boiling cooker was exuding acrid smell,
As pungent as by burning tyres,
Whole house then was feeling unwell,
L.P.G., too, was flaming fires !
My wife carelessly felt all immaterial,
As she was now indulged in TV serial !
Which she was missing while in the kitchen,
Now that she has completed her mission !
The choosy serial was all cause of the fuss,
The vegetables asked for as a pretext quite thus !
I myself had to set right everything,
Queen when happy, so would be the King !

”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 !
Boot-lickers 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 boot-lickers,
Lest they be never detachable stickers !
This vigil may make you always easy,
Least fearful, you may then be busy !

"THE PRIME PREMIER OF INDIA"
**************************
Since Independence, India stood under wings of 14-Premiers,
Among whom included were both Juniors and Seniors !
Shaking hands willy-nilly, as if, each-other’s fellow,
Chronologically their names are enumerated below:
J.L. Nehru, G.L. Nanda, L.B. Shashtri, Indira Gandhi,
Morarji Desai, Charan Singh, Rajiv Gandhi,
V.P. Singh, Chandra Shekhar, P.V. Narsimha Rao,
A.B. Bajpayee, H.D. Deve Gowda, I.K. Gujral !
On date, remains reigning Man Mohan Singh,
Opposition calling him Puppet in Sonia’s string !
Behind the screen aspirant hidden is Rahul Gandhi,
Though as usual denying like his Paa Rajiv Gandhi !
None among all names proved at par of Late Indira,
Whose tenures were unquestionably Golden Era !
Her achievements were superbly over them all,
Operation Blue Star resulted in her fatal fall !
1971-War was India’s memorable victory,
Which glorified the nation with a Golden History !
Unmindful of Foreign threats of VII-War Fleet,
India won the war both in the West and the East !
10-millions of the hoi-polloi of East Pakistan,
Were succoured with well-wishing efficacious plan !
Resultantly born was Independent Bangladesh,
Pakistan was thus conquered and it eclipsed his face !
Further thrilling achievement was of nuclear power,
Displayed in 1974 at Pokaran with thunderous shower !
Indira was thus appropriately a unique entity in India.,
Well-said, “India is Indira, Indira is India” !
Also by her name Indira even exceeded India by ‘R”,
Politically, diplomatically, she was India’s Superstar !
She is an adorable personality of Global repute,
This assessment ever anyone can hardly refute !
Surname Gandhi has proved ever charismatic,
Mahatama Gandhi, Indira Gandhi prove this arithmetic !
Successor like Rajiv Gandhi cherished such instinct,
Center-forward Rahul Gandhi must accomplish the link !
****************
"DELIBERATE DWINDLING DYNASTY"
****************************
Post-British-Rule India turned to be the Republic !
Nehru was the chosen leader who scored a hat-trick !
Until his breathing last, he dominated unchallenged alone,
Emotional Indians thereafter chose Indira to adore the throne !
Hereditary virtues made her a superb Global Idol,
Until “Operation Blue Star”, which endangered her survival !
Consequently, her Bodyguard Sikhs brought her to ruins,
Thrusting nation-wide agony with ever-saddening tunes !
Sympathetic vox populi bestowed its instant favour,
Rajiv Gandhi hence stepped in to savour ruling flavour !
One-after-one from family of Superstar Jawahar Lal,
Succeeding and coming forward for Congress Rule to stall !
Well-taught were all the ingratiating members of this clan,
Everyone on turn appeared better in one’s own span !
Unfortunately like Indira, Rajiv, too, was assassinated,
By unscrupulous delinquents clandestinely instigated !
This agony of distress is an unforgivable stigmatic blame,
Which will always defame India with the tone “shame-shame” !
Despite sustaining a couple of such unwarranted sacrifices,
The rest of the clan has not yet given up all future enterprises !
Advancing forward now appears ultimately a luminous star,
Eagerly, emotionally, hic et ubique, perambulating without car !
Apparently fast forwarding Rahul is well conjectured next star !
Opponent quarters might be peering through doors closed ajar !
Such a popular perambulation of Rahul is peculiarly picturesque,
He is efficaciously canvassing among the youth from dawn to dusk !
His political terminology advocates mainly homologous instinct,
Which is, of course, a way towards a renaissance quite distinct !
Madam Sonia Gandhi is all over well controlling and umpiring,
With sense of complaisance to honourable martyrs’ aspiring !
May God bless them with potency to achieve the target,
Through benevolent hands of ambitious Rahul at his best !
The weight of clean-chit, endowed patriotism and honesty,
Unquestionably stand in favour of this well-known dynasty !
No any such clan else has ever yet appeared parallel,
Rahul Gandhi thus would succeed well in his travel !
Charismatic has proved invariably “GANDHI- SURNAME”,
Sacrifices through assassinations have exalted its fame !

"A BANANA REPUBLIC"
*******************
Early in 1947, the British ended their rule in India,
Comprehending situation with an invincible awe !
Indian national leaders including Nehru, Maulana Azad
On behalf of Congress blessed with Hindustan Azad !
Mohammad Ali Jinnah and Master Tara Singh
Per pro Muslim League and Sikh each distinct wing
Agreed to transfer of power and independence !
India thus faced her segmentation, thence !
Pakistan was born on the west and northern-east,
Displaced were Hindus and Muslims as if in retreat !
During 1947-56, Pakistan was Dominion State
Until 1956 when it gained a Republic fate !
The Civilian rule then was stalled by a coup d’etat
By General Ayub Khan becoming President thereat !
During his tenure Pakistan waged a violent war
Against India in 1965, despite being below par !
Demurely defeated was then Army of Pakistan,
Successor later was then General Yahya Khan !
East Pakistan then had to face a devastating cyclone,
Causing casualties upto 5 lacs as far as known !
Subsequently, 9 months’ guerrilla warfare emerged,
Pak. Army and Bengali Mukti Bahini were indulged !
Resultant was third India-Pakistan war in 1971,
India won the war, Bangladesh born in this turn !
Civilian rule again revived during 1972-77 term,
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto then gained the momentum !
Third Martial General in power was Zia-ul-Haq,
Who was Zulfikar Ali Bhutto’s a fatal bad luck,
As Zia sentenced Bhutto to a merciless death,
Which cursed Zia also to die in a plane-crash !
Benazir Bhutto then grew up with
And suddenly started weeping and murmuring,
Repenting over his being seen outside office at betel shop !
Swore for never going outside office
And consequently facing remark of “Outstanding” !
