COMPARISON
They always compared…
They compared in between-
Themselves and others!!
They compared who was-
The richest of rich and
Poorest among poor.
They compared the rich and poor!
They looked who was
The bravest and the fool!
But never knew-
They were the foolest among all!
They compared-
“Who was the fairest?
Who was the darkest?”
But never knew-
Their hearts and souls
Were the darkest;
Darker than the moonless night sky!
They compared and judged all-
In name of caste, religion, and language
Because they forgot-
The religion of love,
The language of love!
But they never compared a matter-
Of the six feet of fate!
Poetry-2
WHEN IT WAS SHE
The bright morning
Waited with dark clouds for me;
In the call for me
From ICU saying:
“Come quick it’s an emergency!”
Quickly went there.
Met my mother in ICU.
Later, waiting outside
Mourning’s came from another side
Smelling a death
Of someone unknown to me.
My soul was sad for-
Mom and the unknown.
Later, came a body-
Covered with white sheet.
Someone near me moved
The white cloth
From the corpse’s face;
Covering my face-
With paleness and tears;
Of heart break, and sorrow
In the mist of shock,
With shattered voice.
The vision stunned me;
Too deep for me
To see the face of-
My childhood friend
Under the white piece of cloth.
My heart broke out all together
For my mom and
Knowing the unknown corpse that;
‘when it was she.’
