One fine day hubby dear announced,
Silicon Valley be the place, where he will bowl.
I could not go, tears rolled down.
Two months more, he was sure,
When we will be three,
together we will spree.
So, when I bore a lovely little boy
The proud dad sure was overjoyed.
Off we flew down to the valley,
and landed straight in the Electronic City.
A beautiful sight, Valley in the night,
Twinkling stars and bright big lights.
My neighbours too were a pure delight.
Mrs and Mr Rao had a daughter bright,
who played with Neo everyday at twilight.
Their son too a techie, matched the sister upright.
Sometimes I felt lonely, such a strange city.
We soon had company, too my surprise.
The kohlis and Duttas were soon to arrive.
The brotherly Mr Kant, was the only bachelor to survive.
The Shuklas and Singhs too had blissful married life.
Off we all went partying at Maharaja's in the night.
Bannerghatta and Lal bagh were destinations in bright sunlight.
Life was a roller - coaster ride,
when, on Silk board- Hosur road,
The B-company had their drive.
Jallianwala Bagh was an open ground surrounded by wall
Being a garden, also there was a solitary well
Unarmed men, women and kids peacefully assembled
But armored vehicles and formations were called
Oppressor arrived to act against the unarmed
Although all along all remained calmed
Shut was the only small and narrow outlet
Showered over the crowd was successive bullet
The screaming of unarmed civilians and kids was more
than to the pouring bullet sounds from positions before
Several hundreds were dead and wounded in minute
Whole India raised, resisted and revolted to revolute
This shameful chapter added insult to the injury
Set the staunch struggle solidly against colonial armory
Wounds and wailing of our warriors still echoes
With searing memory, India salutes its brave heroes
Tho’ General Dyer shamelessly unleashed the fury
The fire of bravery remains alive even after a century!
HIS LOVE
- BASUNDHARA BAGH
A era of year,
A girl was born with new tears
She decended from heavenly kingdom,
With all his wisdom
She was blessed with dreams and power
Thirsty of nature and wants to be a good creature.
One day he warned through her dreams,
But the girl reacted like a bad dreams.
She went to a walk in her world,
Attracted by devil whorl.
She was happy in a wrong way,
“I DEMINISED YOUR GRACE ",he say
She left the bright,
Started to feel dark in a closed eye.
Devil stretched and asked "MAY I”
Smiled and opened her sight,
With no might,no grace,no light
Demon laughed , “ONE MORE IN MY HEART"
I rose ,i failed.
I walked,i stumbled.
“STILL I HAVE THE LOVE
YOU SMILED IN MY LOSS
FORGETTING THE VICTOR IS IN MY SIDE"
And she turned back.
