The Leaves Fall
I tried to wink but eyes refused
I uttered something but got confused
Why was it not responding to me precisely?
I preferred to remain calm and observe wisely
I go back to my initial days and tried to probe
The different wind was blowing across the globe
There were slightly diminishing areas
My repeated request was failing as useless pleas
Joint families are vanishing very fast
It has survived long but not difficult to last
The sweeping changes are coming from all direction
At no stage we can point any of their single actions
My lips are not opening fully for any music
I used to sing when child’s entry was so much symbolic
I had dreamed he may take me for walk one day
Take my full care and not leave in the middle of the way
I am not sure whether that has proved true
What more have I to wait for and view?
Their changed attitude with so much pain!
Think of not good but bad conduct and sin!
I used to be what I am today and same this before
There was no less contribution and expectation more
I did whatever I could do in my ordinary position
Brought them up in nice way and formed good composition
It is all changed today and may not alter
I may be denied my existence even this after
I have been shown exit and shunted out
What to reveal of tragic tale and talk about
The leaf may fall from out lived tree
That may be nice end to feel free
All tales may end with my departure
But some untold stories may remain there for sure

Tell on face
My father will not hesitate for a moment to tell on face
If he was convinced that pursuit will end in tragic race
He was ordinary but wonderful personality in any case
He may sometimes tell frankly everything to us
Those were the days when elders were treated with respect
Today whole trend has been changed from bad to or worst
Son and father don't see eye to eye and find it difficult
To pull on under same roof and some times trade the insult
People say and admit and new generation is very fast
Their plans are novel and certainly enduring last
Science has made tremendous progress with scope
To scale the ladder fast and remain always on the top
In making scientific progress it has lost the human touch
We had never expected nose dive approach as such
The personal relations are hardly built up
As everybody thinks of scoring very fast with jump
I had heard many stories from father and grandfather
They used to give top priority and affectionately bother
Whole of the family members were treated equally
Main burden for care and everything was shared wholly
Today is not the same as was yesterday
We are proving yesterday as better than today
No one knows what will be future for tomorrow?
But certainly not better for traditional family value to grow
Nothing has, in fact, changed to warrant large gap
Yet we observe it and consider it as slap
How come you value sentiments with that of material gain?
When everything is achieved after passing through considerable pain
Today we are intolerant society with zero understanding
We have failed to master the art and increase misunderstanding
Whatever progress you make or attain should be for benefit
The mass should feel it beneficial and consider it as marvelous feat

Love symbol
I have assessed any analyzed number of times
The role of female in life, but occurred only sometimes
Though they deserved it from clear point of view
We have never given them their due with sincere review
Where should have been my position without her?
What would have happened if she did not take care or bother?
Bulk of the responsibilities shared exclusively by single handed
Still all the times under captivity and with the problems landed
I was given free hand to worry only for raising the fund
That should have met and won the first round
It would have been difficult to survive the on going race
We would not have been able to stand bravely and face
I might have barely thought of going ahead
It would have been impossible to think and lead
The role and responsibilities are clearly defined
The life as such stands fine and shined
I look back and see or visualize her association
It was her frantic effort for the elevation
No one could have cared so much as females do
This is basic fact and very much true
I should not have dreamed of any better position
We had nice and very good composition
The days were passing like smooth river water flow
We were very happy in life even though laid very low
No male will admit the domination of female
It is like challenging the role of whale
Both remain indomitable in any case
Still admiration or respect will never be less
Some of the touchy aspects still hunt the mind
Same beautiful moments are very rare to find
Can we dream of those lost moments for a while?
It would have been very difficult to cut even extra mile
Sometimes I would stare at main door and wait
She will slowly enter not to make the presence very late
I appreciated her presence of mind and admired
She will never spoil the mood and stay smiled
We could have barely survived for few more years
We could never cross the threshold of fifty or more barriers
It was her sweet company that made us to survive more
The relation remained same and never turned sour
She influenced me all those years and more
I have seen her beauty and fully adored
All glorious moment that you do not miss even for seconds
Through out the period your presence was precious like diamond

A Girl from a Little Town
In a little town, close to a park,
Lived a girl in a small house.
She had a dog, who liked to bark,
And always had a cold, black nose.
This girl grew up in the town at last,
And dreamed to leave the city fast.
Her dog was unhappy and sad,
But she decided to follow a lad
Who lived in a very big city
Without any nice dog or cat.
The boy was nice and even witty
And bore a funny, little hat.
The girl dreamed colorful dreams
About the future, interesting life.
And she thought: “I’ve got a good wheeze,
I’ll be a beautiful, young wife! ”
The boy sensed the coming prose
And vanished fast into thin air.
She had to remain in the small house
With the happy, black dog to care.

I Better Be Good
If I ain't cool
My daddy gonna send me
To Military School
If I ain't nice
My girlie gonna freeze me
With cold shoulder ice
If I'm real late
My teacher gonna use me
For alligator bait
So, I better be good
I better be good
If I jump on the gas
The cops are gonna jump
All over my back
If I smoke too much
Doctor says he's gonna
Put my lungs in a crutch
If I'm caught without my pants
Consuelo's dad is gonna shoot
Until he sees me dance
So, I better be good
I had better be good
You better be nice
You better be nice
You better be nice
You better be nice
Nice, nice, nice - you better be
Nice, nice, nice - you better be
Nice, nice, nice - Uh, uh, uh, uh
Nice, nice, nice
Nice, nice, nice
Nice, nice, nice
You better be nice tonight
If I spray it on the seat
Lady gonna tie a big knot
In the meat
If I spewey too fast
Lover's gonna stick
My Wrangler in a cast
If zipper grabs skin
I'll know I had it out
When I shoulda kept it in
Ow.
I better be good
I better be good
I better be good
Ooh.
You better be nice
You better be nice
You better be nice
You better be nice
Nice, nice, nice - you better be
Nice, nice, nice - you better be
Nice, nice, nice - Uh, uh, uh, uh
Nice, nice, nice
I'd better be nice tonight - yeah
Nice, nice, nice
Nice, nice, nice
Nice, nice, nice

A far end
I visualize the far end
It had always remained my trend
To thinks of foes and friends
To support and ready for good wishes to send
I have sensed the futility of such hunt
Life had remained difficult and bore the burnt
It has taught me to be tolerant and submissive
There lies humbleness in not to take but to give
Why is that I have been hunted all along?
I find it alright and absolutely nothing wrong
Why people offer me brickbats for simple song?
I am always with them finding nicely among
It may be nice way of repaying in their opinion
It may be best way to offer the opposition
I still find it right and best composition
It pays me well with my position
God has given me everything to feel happy with
I never have to express anger with closing the teeth
I go silently and meet the people with open smile
It gives me course and stand to walk for an extra mile
I might have not fared well with inner conscience
It might have been out of tune with its presence
Sometimes it proves deterrent if behaved in nice way
It is landing in trouble and dragging us away
It was sill long way to go and sustain
I did all possible to remain calm and maintain
It proved not to the extent possible
I always found it difficult and impossible
I lie with satisfaction on the bed
I find everything in flames and red
I know it will be just matter of time
I may be punished by some one for my crime
I breathe happily in peace with satisfaction
It is definitely a good sign and indication
You fear it most when reach to the dead end
It does not spare either foes or friends
There is no use to lament and cry
You should not back and ask why?
Neither there is any necessarily to feel bad
Nor is there any use to feel guilty and sad
It is universal truth that one has to depart
You try to retain nothing but impart
It will always give you inner happiness
It will grant you honor and closeness
I may look towards apostles with immense trust
It makes me feel good and it is really must
It will save me from possible embarrassment
I have prepared to leave the stage at any moment

It is you
it is not going to stop
you are always on top
in mind and at heart
looking damn handsome and smart
it had slowly start
i liked and felt like part
it is not going to end
we shall remain as friend
I continue to think and wonder
I understand and here line under
How more to convey and reveal?
It is from depth of heart to feel
I don't know how much we may last?
Life is moving on very fast
We are certainly going to make it success
There won't be any break up or pause
Though I am not supposed to fall
It was earnest and sincere call
It was attachment to be felt within
It was at first sight win
I wish it to happen again and again
My eyes just probe and train
All hopes lie on your single yes
Do it if you want shining on face
Nothing to speak but reflect on move
Love may speak silently and prove
What may speak from here stands to grow
It may reflect and clearly show
It is specially driven and understood
Implications and necessity as food
Is it not the friendship coming on fore
That was feeling not known before
I may err in reading the call
It may prove as very high wall
I may try to scale and be on top
There is no chance to come to stop
You may help me to overcome
That will be nice and welcome
I shall stay safe and secured
The place is very much assured
We got to move forward and claim
There is still full love in game
We got to make it reality
That shows our clear ability
We may sail and move to shore
We have still lot more ground to explore
We may appreciate each other and adore
It needs still more and more
We are no exception but a figure
It may may happen with all for sure
It is first and foremost necessity
It is to be enjoyed in simplicity
It is nice to observe decency
It may have lot of frequency
We may met often and observe
Still do not loose the sight and serve
You may go the to extreme end
We may still remain as very good friend
It is customary to be united in life and stay
We got to remain in circle and pave the way

Old age is fine beauty
Old age is not new phenomenal
Every individual may have to depart after arrival
What even if old man is not cared?
At least old man has taken care of children and dared
There is no need to weep
Remain fit always and composure to keep
If sea wind is differently blowing
Who cares for and eager of knowing
It is unfortunate to target old man
He has lived his life as responsible noble
What did he not do for whole of family?
Now even children live in comfort and happily
Many old age homes are coming
Great plight for all ages looming
What can we do for their honorable end?
Feel in life as very close and intimate friend
Someone told me about nice end show
Foreign currency deposited for when I go
Bid final bye and say thank you mother earth
My only request not to spoil natural death
Do nothing so as to denigrate human being
No parents may ask for lovely child and sing
If bird was to be left alone on road
What on earth can be considered as load?
With weak wings you are downed
With all abuses and finally stoned
Shunted from door to door
You had never been such a poor
Think of that kind of poverty
That may wait for them from almighty
Feel not any kind of remorse or pity
Old age is not at all curse but fine departing beauty

Shed Under Tree
I am misunderstood by my actions
I can visibly read their reactions
Neither can I claim that good
Not I perform poorly or that bad
May be some other definition is awaited
They have always laughed at me and taunted
How could I find out the reason?
As no one is willing to consider me as good person
I would love prove myself very right
Even I shall offer to go for right cause and fight
I am picking little clues about their irritation
I think I am poorly painted with that relation
May be I am little hasty
May be my words are not that sweet or tasty
From the beginning I have lacked the politics
In today’s date it is considered as very basis
I have fewer friends and more critics
They are intelligent people with good sense of clerics
They want everything to be presented in precise terms
This attitude only fails me and turns against
Sometimes I wish for their funeral
Join in procession and offer tribute of floral
But certainly that position may be taken over by somebody else
The position will remain same and not changed hence
Person can remain greedy and self centered
He will be respected and good position offered
People respect and favor the favorable wind
Where is the time with them for true things to find?
I wish to confine and stay alone
But not waiting for times to be gone
As it will amount to be wasting time and be selective
God will not forgive me fore remaining inactive
Life is not meant for simply eating and spending
Animals do the same and thus simply ending
It must be offered not fully but to lesser degree
Like offering shed as is done by giant tree
Life must have some kind of orientation
It need not be puzzled with many questions
It has very short and limited duration
If we can use it for strengthening the relation

An easy escape
I have escaped from jail
Totally free without any bail
No surety for my good conduct
Not to receive any orders or to instruct
Is it good beginning or opening a new leaf?
Is it better to be a blind or deaf?
Why not free self from such clutches?
Before some one comes near or approaches
There is nice happening
It is good opening too
I don’t know how far it is true
I must pass over and get through
It has some purpose
I must admit and depose
Certain things required to be done away
There lies complete open way
I am awakened to new reality
Certainly it has fine quality
There is real aim to stay with and spend
No foes at all but all friends
I feel to be completely free and alive
The burden is completely taken off to relieve
It is deep and nice feeling
I am in for it and willing
There is ever lasting peace
The life is spent at ease
The good will message is to be released
All sort of bad feelings to be ceased
It is not easy to free
It is not easy to flee
The tree can’t hide the shade
The reality is as sharp as blade
You will have to liberate
New ideas to emerge and vibrate
There is opening of new gate
Grab the opportunity and never be late

An end to activities
Day is full of hectic activities and come to an end
Tile to pack up in time and feelers are sent
You are taken off the mind for the moment
Homeward journey with lot of hopes and movements
Remembering all advices given before leaving home
Not to miss a single call especially coming from
No energy is left in body still fell fresh and energetic
Feet move in one direction without being pulled from magnet
It is real home coming with no worries or tension
Days work left in office and not to find any mention
It is real test to hide it in most sober and diplomatic way
Wife too may not notice while serving water in tray
Evening brings special message of making another move
All the fears and anxieties are left behind or removed
The mild wind may blow from all the directions
It is time to get fresh and prepare for love actions
It may be good move by nature to offer timely rest
Human beings may not prefer any break for the test
They may go on working endlessly and achieve the best
Still all creatures prefer to come back to their nest
It is quite logical to be with dear ones and relatives
They are most desirable members and remain active
You are looked after well and supported in the initiatives
Your status and maturity will be appreciated by the native
When you extend your feet in relaxation mood?
It may add to and open up your appetite for nice food
Natural it had to be delicious and quite tasteful
Whole day work may look very nice and purposeful
It is pause period between active and inactive duration
You may be struggling with lot many questions
This may provide golden opportunity to prepare and brace
When you are in office next day you are fully prepared to face
Pleasant and cool evenings are thought ground to explore
It may divert your attention to seek new and more
It may add up to your energy for full conservation
You may be able to think positive with simple observation
Let evenings be not spoiled by hasty actions or lot of worries
Leave behind everything get rid of them by saying sorry
It may certainly create new space for carrying good proposals
You may find yourself in comfortable position for disposals
It is nice to be at home in joyous and happy environment
It may look natural if they remain peaceful without any comments
It has to be congenial at any point of given time
You may think of nice morning with bright sunshine

Father Gave Us
Father gave us freedom
To know about the persons and welcome
To distinguish between wrong and right
Tremendous boost for the life to fight
Certainly he is towering figure
For making and shape our future
He is always there for us to guide
We can, at any time, go to him and confide
He is very much caring and kind at heart
God has taught him very good art
He needs to remain in that posture
Else we may never learn anything for sure
It is nice to feel secured at home
He does it for all us to be at home
It is his dedication and concerted effort
That we are under roof and have nice rapport
Even though mother is at her best to excel
Father is no less important than to tell
We are all are under his supervision
So there remains no uncertainty and confusion
What could happen to family if he has gone away?
Leaves us behind and deserts the way
It is nearly impossible to think about world
We are very much at ease under his fold
Sometimes we feel ashamed of his status
As it creates inferior position for us
But forget not his contribution for our graph
That has made us lot happier to laugh
Even though he might have labored under sun
We were never made to suffer for hectic run
It was his vision and dream that we are today
Never show him discourtesy to feel bad way
He will be broken and shattered
The moments something bad in taste is uttered
He will be disgusted to note that we plan to depart
That may be an end long wait for his devotional part

Today...
Today, the leaves were greener
Today, the sky wasn’t grey
Today, the sun was brighter
Yes, it changed today
Today, people transformed
Today, they weren’t rude
Today, I felt loved
All just today, it’s true
Today, I lived for today
Today, was not for the future
Today, was a great day
Not menial, tiring, brutal
Today, I laughed in silence
Today didn’t make me cry
Today, everything became clearer
But, today, I couldn’t figure out why
And today, if everything changed
And today, if it wasn’t a dream
I don’t know what happened
But today will become everyday, it seems.

Just live a good life
I wake up early this morning
Opening my computer
To read the emails and to
Write some thoughts in my mind
You pop out on the screen
With a big Good Day to me
You were fast on your pessimism
As I sip my coffee and read you
The world is ending
The climates changed
There is so much CO2
Humans have become
Slanderers and blasphemers
And God shall take his day
For this world’s destruction
I ask, if you have taken coffee
A pineapple juice or simply tea
I ask, if you had good sex last night
With your wife or someone else
I ask, if you are writing another poem
I ask, if you are taking a morning walk
With your dog or your son or daughter
I ask, if you have seen the sun rise
I ask, if you had a nice conversation
With a friend or an officemate
I ask, if you are living a good life
I ask, if you are being good and taking
Care of yourself, if you are praying, if
You are on the good side of the fence
You may not answer, I am taking a walk
I have just written a poem, I am answering
Emails of friends, I am seeing a beautiful
Sunrise today, its rays coming out from the trees.

Good Day
The sky is blue but there are clouds in my head,
With big decisions looming ahead.
The sun is out but the room is so grey,
So much confusion headed my way.
Get positive, try to be gay.
News of the world, tea and biscuits in bed.
The headlines said that diana is dead.
She couldnt act much but she put on a show.
She always smiled even when she felt low.
I used to fancy her a long time ago.
So today has got to be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day.
Holes in my socks and I cant find my shoes.
Its no surprise that Im singing the blues.
So many holes in my life still to mend,
And someone just said that the worlds gonna end.
So today better be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Today has got to be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day, good day.
If we blow away the past with a bloody great blast,
Make it fast, make it fast.
So have a good day today because it could be your last,
Make it last, make it last.
Will it light up the sky?
Will it blot out the sun?
Well weve waited this long,
So it better be a good one.
Good day, good day, good day.
Yeah, its gonna be a good day.
Hey baby, if you come back home itll be a good day today.
They could drop a small atom bomb on the city today,
But if you walk through that door honey, you know itll be a good day.
And now survival is my only aim.
I call friends and see if any remain.
Who was that girl who used to be my flame?
Id call her if I could remember her name.
So today is gonna be a good day,
Today has got to be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day, good day.
Hey diana, Ive really got to learn to take a tip from you,
Put on my makeup and try to make the world take notice of you.
Yeah, its gonna be good day today.
Good day, gonna be a good day.

A lot good awaits us both from that morn
100 days today
Since you are away
Days and nights sway
Your sweet memories ever stay
How did I manage
I do not have a thing to gauge
I am seemingly free on stage
But mutely locked up in your cage
You are very thoughtful
Your wise words meaningful
Your care plentiful
Your ways beautiful
True, I feel troubled by your love
Your absence though pinches like a bite of a clove
Farther you, but closer are we as hand and glove
On the day you arrive I will be all above
Daughter, son or grandson
None to your comparison
In company and unison
As you remain the most me-tolerate person
Still more days fifty six
To go before we meet and mix
That long puts me in a fix
Corners me like a jinx
It will be the most colourful dawn
The day you walk back on airport lawn
My pleasure it will be to wait even if long drawn
As a lot good awaits us both from that morn

A life is.....
Life is very easy
Only you remain busy
Don't take it to heart
You stay alive and smart
Not all the days may remain same
You will earn good name and fame
You just take it as bad phase
It will help bad memory to erase
Do take all possible care
Go and see every where
Don't challenge the people to dare
It is not good or fare
Life is full of surprises
It may remain still your demises
What does it comprise?
It has got no prizes
You may feel bad
Some times very sad
You got to live and lead
This message you must read
There may not be any takers
You will be met by fraudsters and fakers
Still you got to know it better
It is full fledged subject matter
They may be very nice and look at you
You should realize and think it true
It may be kind gesture and not be cruel joke
I should think bad and deliver the stroke
There is nothing more to complain
It may prove unproductive and go into vain
You should stick to your point and prove
Try to assert and simply move
You may change the way
Still you got to pay
Hard effort may show you bright ray
You may rally have definite say
You tried to be accommodative
It was very positive and indicative
Not all may be your kith and kin
You should make place and win
There came hard summer
I wanted to say something and murmur
I had bade just now the winter
It was severe and very bitter
I may be a changed lot
I have unnecessarily fought
I always longed for good support
I had eagerly waited for it and sought
I need not waste my energy and wait
This is not something like bad luck or fate
Everything takes its own time and not very late
Love it heartily and don’t show displeasure or hate

A no to look back
I looked back
It offered me only shock
I was standing on top of the rock
It looked as if I was crack
You look the world from zenith
It looks tiny from beneath
You may get little uneasiness to see
As you are on top of the tree
It is easy to reach on top
Once there means a full stop
You got to maintain and stay
This is the only way
Stick to what the philosophers say?
Abide by the sayings and pay
Full attention to what is to be done next
With full throttle force to deliver the best
Can you imagine how much time it has taken?
Can you count how many days it has shaken?
Can you put simple logic to arrive at conclusion?
Was there any external force or compulsion?
Now you have got what was aimed for?
There was no peace or no war
It was race for survival and betterment
There is glorious success for your movement
It should have gone other way round
You could have lost the prestigious ground
That could spell you the doom's day
It was only option for exit way
You never look back when going ahead
You got to be inspired and lead
The fall out is clearly read
You are the only one to head
The fortune may swing in any direction
It may depend only on your action
Whether it is half heart try or full attempt
It will bring some results if you are very prompt
It was all done and forgotten
The achievement was well spoken
You did take it as small token
No were your promises were broken
It has become now more important
To maintain it in spirit and constant
The success has not come as instant
It was well taken as good intent
Try to garner the support
Maintain good will and rapport
This will stabilize the position
Honor and repute will be good composition
It is difficult to remain on top
Some one else may also try to stop
It may be your own capability
That may prove your worth and ability
Love to remain with and among
It will never prove you wrong
You may be hailed as true contender
You will recognized as leader or commander
The zenith and fame comes with the success
It is happening with all the cases
It has to come in any way
It is proclaimed as golden say

A sixth ton
I stood half way with so much satisfaction
New scales were reached to generate lot of excitation
How could one ordinary man achieve poetry feet?
Was it not a simple occasion to wait and greet?
It has become routine now to count in numbers
It brought me to required level among members
It may reach many more hundreds in coming days
Many hurdles still there to be cleared on the way
“Story teller or novice” is fixed on my name
How it looks nice and beautiful when I claim?
Thoughts just creep in mind and I simply rename
Inter weave nicely with delicacy and frame
Is it final stop or beginning of new leaf?
Do I need fresh lease or an extra brief?
It is process of finding new refuge
The task is not difficult but very huge
I may not stand to gain at first stroke
It may vanish in the guise of thick smoke
I shall act as an ordinary and humble
The fame is momentary like water bubble
I shall be lost in crowd and never regain
It should not be seized with or refrain
No do or die situation in the holy task
Cool from outside but hot to remain in flask
What if I go on writing in the natural style?
Will it be stumbling block for a while?
Will it find a favor with reader friends?
Will it ring a death bell or bring to an end?
All mixed feelings and still to fear
Fine composition and smile to wear
Words to be soaked in style with tears
Sorrows and agony to self always bear
What I could give to millions who need?
Only words with deep feelings to read
It shall be deemed worthy if I can feed?
Best possible way to find a place and lead
I am not in position to express my deepest gratitude
I want to be placed at the bottom with my attitude
How sky can be measured with its altitude?
All are humble and can’t afford to be tough and rude
I wish to stand among all having entity as poet
Normal writings with ideas so specific and quiet
I may find its worth in coming days at any rate
Luck sometimes smile and annul the work of fate
I love to b part of small globe
Awakening of conscience without any probe
It may lead me to a place where I should be
Well wisher and friend with views to express free

The Leaf And The Tree And The Roots
if i had to write it again
then i had to, as i must
let you fully understand
the true nature of a vine
the way the leaf swerves
with the wind to give itself
to a fateful fall, the one that
completes its existence as
a leaf to a tree, a part of
a whole, the way it must
settle on the ground and
be with the worms and rot
and fulfills the cycle of its
short existence, and by then
it tells the roots, i am a leaf
i am back and you must now
eat everything in me so i can
be with the bark again so i
can be a leaf again to a tree
that holds me back
and then for another time
lets me fall again.

At sudden death
I know many may come to lay the wreath
They may be very sad at my sudden death
What can be felt at somebody's departure?
Everybody may say it is end of full tenure
You may realize importance and worth
When nothing coming or expected forth
It is really a bad time and critical situation
Life can be lived not in isolation but with continuation
You have lost the cover and head
You will have to carve out and lead
Many things may not be seen and go as unread
You will be facing problems of kind never heard
Well, I will be forgotten after some interval
Some more will be added and welcomed on arrival
Life may move on and nothing will be changed
Everything will be settled and nicely managed
I tried my level best to accommodate
It was well maintained up to date
It is now clear responsibility to go ahead
Whole family should bound together in nice thread
I am very sure that you all can do
This has got some weight and very true
One departs and another takes over
They may now act as shield or cover
It is nice to be found among family
Some may act brave and some may act silly
We got to take them together and stay
No one can afford to remain far or go away
It is not easy as thought over in some quarter
No one can act differently or try to be smarter
It has to go on as single entity or force
For any thing wrong not one only may feel remorse
Every single member is given enough opportunity
It has wide importance and full utility
No one can claim any special credit
No mistakes, but if any, then combined effort to edit
I had taken care to bring them up nicely
They are trained to face it bravely
They may not face any hurdle
They may make the way and not stay in middle
This is how one makes the way
As head he has complete power and say
He may yield power and have full sway
He has to stay there and make the way
If death is reality then survival is big cause
No one can afford to relax or wait for pause
The cart has to be pulled further for reaching an end
This must be the indication and clear trend
