Amusing


Amusing

He made faces,
Jumped, rolled, mimicked
Yet failed to amuse
Till he looked in her eyes 
....and asked
What can I do to make you laugh?

….And she laughed and laughed….

No amount of doing helps without being

A plea


A plea


When I am not,
Love is.


When I am there,
Betrayal can be.


Please forgive me
or
Cast first stone at me.

Dense clouds


I thought moon betrayed me,

But it was clouds covering it.

Time taught its lessons.

Betrayal ?


Betrayal ?

Love is like a
Fresh breeze refreshing mind,
Blossoming flowers filling heart with splendor,
Shower of rain cooling soul,
When it is there
feel blessed
Enjoy it.

When
Breeze pass
Rain go and
Flowers fall
Can I complain?

Old Notebook


Old   Notebook

Notes on matters
That consumed my existence,
So important then
…..Now irrelevant.





Notebook dumped.






Left me wondering
What remains important forever?

Weed


W e e d

Useless
Unwanted
To be thrown out
Yet
Your part
You may not care
Show concern
Still
Please let me be
Just let me be
With you.

You will find love in me
Soon
Just let me be
With you.

Just let me be 
With you.

Obsessed about cleanliness

A letter to Respected Prime Minister from a common man.


Dear Prime Minister,

Subject :  Spirit of constitution

Dear Sir, in your letter when you asked Shri Anna Hazare to follow constitution in its spirit, your anxiety to maintain order of law can be well understood and appreciated. As a law abiding citizen I too will not want my country to derail from the path of peace and growth even for one hour.

By the same token, in the true spirit of constitution, I envisage that an elected PM in a vibrant democracy must go after corrupt ministers. Nothing can come in his ways, least fear that Government may lose its majority. Politics of coalition is not a permission to tolerate inefficiencies and practices that may even create doubt about corruption. It is absolutely against spirit of constitution.

Sir, I think it is still not too late. Please act in true spirit of constitution and save our nation from going into the state of anarchy.

1)    1)  Go with full force at your command against doubtful /corrupt practices.

2)   2) Give parliament an opportunity to discuss Jan-Lokpal Bill as drafted by civil society (Now represented by Shri  Anna Hazare and his team). Let parliament decide. Isn’t parliament supreme in democracy?

3)    3)  Make it clear by your actions that you stand for clean and efficient governance as a PM of this country and chances of Government losing power or Congress party returning to power in next election is not a matter of consideration for you as a PM.

4)      Sir, I think people of this country deserve this.

Sir, you have nothing to lose.

Jai Hind.
A common man

Spirit of the matter


Spirit of the matter

It is felt
Deep within
Respected, held dear
Close to heart.

Followed intuitively
Wide awaken or in sleep.

When followed as such,
Gets embedded within,
Inducing same in others.

Those who cannot accept it
Stay away.

Those who love it
Come closer,
Strengthening it further.

                                                            Harshad

Gossip


Whisper when spread
Soon turns in to a gossip
Hurting someone deep
