TERRORISM!!


Terrorism!!

We look at the daily newspapers and gasp,
Seeing the rise of terrorism in our country,
We keep blaming the politicians, the system,
But do we ever contemplate, do we ever think,
Do we ever reflect and try and find a reason,

Is it always necessary to transgress,
Is it unavoidable to go astray,
To achieve fame, name and success,
Is it necessary to give in,
To powerful people and commit a sin,

Is it compulsory to give others’ sorrow,
Just because by that we can have a better tomorrow,
We fall prey to easy money,
We commit crime in haste,
But for once, can’t we think pure and chaste,

These influential men tell us lies and give us false hope,
They destroy our conscience, brainwash us,
And compel us to do their dirty work,
And our actions follow their orders,
Though deep inside we know, it doesn’t make sense,

Who are they to teach us how to live,
Just a bunch of corrupt, anti-social minds,
We betray innocent brothers and sisters,
Do we have an answer to give,
To God, to justify our insane actions,

We trust strangers far too easily,
But we always oppose our well-wishers and family,
Right from childhood, we are repeatedly given one advice,
Before we act, we must always think twice,
But those words go in vain, yet again,

We eventually get drawn into a mighty web,
Trying to free entangles us even more,
We get sucked into the Bermuda triangle,
And there’s no way we can survive,
However hard we thrash about and struggle,

So my countrymen, we need to learn,
We need to contemplate, we need to act,
We need to improve ourselves first,
And not fall into the vicious maze,
Of crime, hatred, betrayal and craze,

Tonight, we take a pledge,
We’ll do the best we can,
To save our country; To save the world.
We’ll eventually wipe terrorism completely,
Coz, we are united, like one big family……

To you , my mother!! Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator. Thank You, for everything you've done, I need you, I really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I remember a day of the past, When you held my little finger, Took me to school the very first day. I was crying, terribly upset, Coz i didn't want to stay away from you. I remember how i used to cry, When every morning you went to the dispensary. I needed you then, i need you even now. I need your guidance, your advice. I need your backing, your support. Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator, Over the past few years, You've become my guide, my mentor, I need you, i really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I am indeed very lucky, To have a mother as sweet as you. I am indeed very lucky, To have someone who cares for me, Who appreciates my achievements with glee, Yet equally stern when i am wrong. You have a heart of gold, my mother, Please stay by my sid...

YOU HAVE ENRICHED MY LIFE!!

You have enriched my life!! In an era where happy marriages are an illusion, In you I see love so untainted, so true, It is pleasantly surprising and gladdening, And I feel so lucky to spend my life with you, The twinkle in your eyes; the caring look on your face, I see, as I open my eyes every morning, I feel your soft hands gently stroking my forehead, The moment is beyond doubt, refreshing, I feel excited while coming back from work, Knowing someone’s eagerly waiting for me, And as we sit and share the day’s happenings, All my worries vanish; I feel happy and free, Sweetheart, let me hold you for a moment, And let all the memories flow, From the first time we met, the first time we kissed, To the birth of our children, and seeing them grow, The times spent with you have been priceless, And I can’t imagine living even a day without you, Dear, your smile mesmerizes me even now, I can spend my whole life merely gazing at you. I feel like praising you all the time, For you are a ...

DRAVID: THE UNSUNG HERO!!

Dravid: The unsung hero!! An epitome of perseverance was he, A man of resolve; like a wall he stood, Weathering every belligerent storm with ease, Every single time, without an interlude, An epitome of ethics, an ideal sportsman was he, He made us believe, cricket’s still a gentleman’s game, For rarely he shouted, cursed or resorted to unfair means, Never did we see him bring our country’s reputation to shame, An epitome of selflessness was he, A man who would have walked on fire for his team, He did everything he was asked to do; and more, He would die saving someone else’s life, it does seem, An epitome of humility, a true altruist was he, For never in his life was he seen flaunting his records, Preferring instead to be a shadow, an unsung hero, A man who served; without expecting rewards, An epitome of loyalty was he, Like a mother loves her child since birth, Every step he took was in the interest of the country, Yet who never r...
