Madam CM ji, please have some pity,
These lake sized holes and roads dirty
Make my little heart go down
Though envoy,I feel like a clown
Crime has taken a toll
Law & order both went for a stroll
It seems you are sleeping and snoring
While the Delhi is weeping and howling
Please listen to our pleas
Ever since the Yamuna went crazy
A few hopes left now, seem hazy
Anyways, now you have a different case
Since the godsend rain has saved your face
Now you have got something to blame
And save your chair and your name.
But first please answer my question
You may even lose the election*
Which causes more destruction?
Nature or this deep set corruption?
(COMMENT BY SG ON THE FIRST VERSION. B'COZ OF SOME PROBLEM IN BLOGGER, I HAD TO REPOST IT)
ReplyDelete"Nice poem. The last stanza ended as a Tercet. Like others, I want to make it a Quatrain. Therefore, how about, a fourth line as follows:
You may even lose the election. "
Hii SG
ReplyDeletethanks a ton!
I have used that line
Delhi is really in apathetic condition. :(

ReplyDeleteI ma keeping fingers crossed for the CWG lets see what happens now
Dear Shera (A.S),
ReplyDeleteYou spoke the truth. The truth is visible to all except those whom we gave extra eyes and powers to see. It seems that the rise in political status reduces the eyesight.
The Emperor himself is weaving the invisible cloth this time. Manmohan has lost his spectacles.
This poem must be published in a daily newspaper.
Regards,
Ashutosh

It reminds school days to me... and good that i don't work in delhi :)
