Roses are red
Violets are blue
Though the love must spread
Today it's no more than for two
Buy those overpriced red roses
From the merchants making a kill from love
At exquisite places take pictures while striking poses
Isn't Valentine's day an iron fist in a velvet glove
Meanwhile an imaginary "men's conference."
To save the man from the demands of the day
And thereafter the wallet exudes no difference
He heftily parts with his gold and silver either way
Therefore show love to the wife of your youth
See her joy even from the humblest gifts from your hand
Let that material gift express the immaterial truth
With anything from a pendant to even a piece of land
There is no love without giving
Your avoidance of spending still hasn't made you rich
The gratitude and reciprocity that you haven't been seeing
Is there in the generosity we hardly preach.

Trial
Is he not supposed to be a witness
This jelly fish who sounds witless?
Look as he’s is by the Suspect mauled
Feebly, out of Court as he crawled!
Hear the Prosecutor’s questions
Leading questions teach us lessons;
He might be a Suspect’s clever aide
On his payroll being heftily paid.
As the Judge’s eyes wisely sparkle
Are they not tuned by Devil’s knuckle?
He talks less scribbling something-
Damn it! He’s writing NOTHING!!
Justice system is now full of holes
Escaping to liberty a criminal’s ball!

In the name of god
Six men silently went to do a theft
In a house of their neighbor
Successfully they broke into
And fortunately got their hands
On substantial amount of wealth
After completing the operation
Heftily they came back to their den
In a forest under a small cave
Merrily the boss sat down round
As a leader sits with his executives
And equally distributed the booty
He could cheat them easily
But he did not and that is called
The honesty of thieves.
Here is a man educated
And does a white collar job
But his greed is so much
He tells lies, takes bribes
With a slightest opportunity
Sells his honesty and swindle money
As if he is educated to cheat people
To kill trust, with expert hands
To do crime leaving no clue behind
Who is better this educated man
Or the leader of the thieves?
