Trust




Telling words can captivate imagination
Ruthlessly nails down the blind belief
Under the influence of actions
Silently wins over the heart
To betray in the end

Snakes




Scary looks hypnotizes senses of preys
Nasty hiss can drain away the confidence
Angry chases are hard to evade with survival
Kings of deadly poisons, bad enemy to have in life
Escape is beyond question if it bites with vengeance
Slice of luck and time is required to negate the poison  




Well this poem is inspired by the images shown by Suzy Gneist. Images thanks to :     http://www.derm.qld.gov.au

Hope



High times follow the dreadful times,show patience when life turns rougH
Optimistic actions pave the way ahead,while hastiness can turn you zerO
Peel away the insecurities of the heart, by putting effort and not giving uP
Erase all your fear of losing, by burning your heart with desire to achievE

On a journey through
Umpteen seasons

Shame



Showing some kind of
Heartfelt remorse over actions
Allays the bad image
Made over the years
Earnest apology for mistakes

Get Well Soon




Galaxy of well-wishers
Earnestly lend ears
To hear from you

Words of relief
Elaborating feelings
Longs to see you smiling
Languidly to mark the recovery

Scores of faithful prayers may bring
Odor of divine blessings from heaven to
Optimize your desire to be back on your feet
Nectars of belief may get you colors of life soon

Children





Chirpy voices that makes home lively
Holders of baton of future for parents
Instruments that play rhythm of life
Lake of innocence that charms hearts
Dream of ten months, colors of a lifetime
Regarded as gift from god, to care and love  
Eagerly waits to grow up to be like their idols
Names to rely on when age slows down the senses

Education



Earning a degree
Defines the status
Underlines the potential
Casts as qualified
Although ill equipped
To face life
Industry need skilled
Our system creates
Naïve ambitious muggers

Event mis-Management





So, it’s going to be another crazy rush
Little time left to organize everything around
Done, nobody have any idea to fix this mess
So, it seems there will be huge bills to settle
Much of the chairs are crushed, so is the stage
To greet guests, there is a mad elephant waiting
Do nothing; the whole buffet is lying scattered

Rakhi



River of love between sisters and brothers
Are strengthened by a dam of divine knot
Keyed to the hands of brothers by sisters
Humble brothers swear to protect them always
Intimately, they gifts sisters for their prayers and love 



Today its Rakhi. This is my gift  to all those sisters who consider me as brother. Prompt#7 in  acrosticonly . Image courtesy : Thanks to greetings.webdunia & coolorkutscraps .

Pensive






Pile of thoughts nailed me in a wily looP
Egged me towards my forgotten desirE
Naïve heart chased a blind redemptioN
Settled for small wishes and silly glorieS
Instead of challenging the waves of alibI
Voices of emotions urged me to be a leV
Ending the era of losses towards ablazE

Dangerous




Dragging the life towards
An unknown path out of curiosity
Never presents pleasant journey
Gradual unveiling of shocking events
Encounters the mythical confidence
Rugged path and dodgy Samaritans
Outsources the act of terrifying for big sums
Urge of fighting injustice can turn fatal and ugly
Stay away from the corridors of crime, be safe !

Africa







A land of colors, cultures, and wildlife
From where the ancestors of humans
Rose into prominence in this big world
Ill-treated for centuries in the dark ages  
Carries the hope of millions of deprived
As they try to rise in the new world order

Disgruntled workforce




Gruel some nature of contemporary jobs
Rips apart the high levels of expectation
Impatient peers consistently moves on
Making lame excuses of unbearable stress
All along in this competitive business world
Casting doubts over the human comforts
Exhilarating the demands of parity in pay

Pushing people towards ambitious productivity regime
Hastens their desire to exit for less turbulent pastures
After all everyone wish to work for securing their families
Seeking all their energy and time for unrealistic deadlines
Endangers the harmony of an aspiring peaceful work space

Stuck on a boring job that extracts the skills with betraying pay
Tires out even the hearts of ever-loyal passionate employees
Unless there is motivation in the form of promotion and perks
Mind it, no body wish to live for the sake of working all the time
Better time- frames and work distributions can ease the nerves
Instilling fresh confidence in  an out of sorts insecure work force
Eager to have ample time to enjoy their lives with the loved ones

It was Love at first sight

 



It took me to a world, beyond skies, tears and joy

Was I dreaming or just lived a surprise worth a lifetime!

Love, it has conquered my ever-wandering heart in a flash 

At once, I saw her dazzling eyes brimming with a divine hope

First, it was disbelief, but she swept away my fears with a smile 

Sight, I will never forget that, for all the rich treasures in this world

China




Clouds of aspirations rained powerfully
Heights of ascendancy evident everywhere
In the era of globalization
Notched growth higher than others
Amidst iron fisted communist regime

Drunkard



Dances like a four legged anywhere, while enjoying  
Runs like a three legged in rush to reach somewhere
Insanely sings aloud at midnight, causing big nuisance
No sentiments towards neighbors’ who are fast asleep
Kind enough to hurl abuses, if confronted with any fury

Feeble enough to fall down anytime while walking gingerly
Ends up sleeping somewhere unconscious but peaceful
Earns surprise wake up in the mornings sometimes
Boozing is an easy to learn, but hard to give up
Loved for their entertaining traits after drinks
Emerges as if nothing happened amidst ruins

Predictable antics on display after every session
Reserves lot of emotions inside heart unlike others
Eager to release all the stress into the sky of imagination
Drinks with devotion on all seasons, to celebrate or to mourn
Ill-fated past time that can turn fun into tears with deadly illness
Cruel passion that can run over the hapless pedestrians on streets
The cold-blooded alcohol runs through the veins, decides every move

Cheer Up









Countless people wait for your cute smile
Harping hopes of lighter moments again
Ease yourself from the grip of tame sorrow
Endear yourself to the group of vibrant colors
Rain the blisters of nature’s colors into your heart

Untie the rules to paint on others sullen faces, funnily
Pitch the aura of new life in them with your unique colors 






Cheer up yourself first and then the ones you love, if you see them hiding in the cage of sorrow. Images Courtsey : mdjunction , t2.gstatic
