THE MUFFLED VOICE!!


The muffled voice!!

Right now, in my Mother’s womb,
Helpless and clueless; I keep crying,
But you can’t see, for you are busy,
Planning my murder; as for justice I keep demanding,

I wanted these nine months to pass soon,
So that I could look at the world beautiful,
To breathe in fresh air, to experience its bounty,
Seldom I knew; to dream of it, I was a big fool,

I wish you could hear me. Dad,
And feel the emotions of your daughter,
I wanted you to be my most favourite person,
Who pampered me endless, and fulfilled my desire,

Mom, how can you do this to me,
Didn’t you love me even a bit, all this while,
I was in your protective shelter,
Perhaps I wrongly felt, my presence made you smile,

Won’t I even get a single opportunity,
To see you, to hug you, to be in your presence,
My parents, to you, I plead; to you, I ask,
Is being of the fairer sex such a big offence,

I wish someone would hear my muffled voice,
Alas, my words would always remain unspoken,
I would soon be brutally slaughtered,
And with utmost care, the crime would be hidden,

Millions like me suffer every day,
Those who survive, die a slow death,
Cursed and tormented for being a woman,
Throughout their lives; till their last breath,

If there’s a God, he will listen to our pleas,
He will save us; he will show us a way,
Helpless I keep crying in my mother’s womb,
Wishing for a miracle, every moment, every day..............

TO YOU, MY MOTHER!!

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...
