Holi

आँखें खोल कर देखो,
रंगों का मौसम है आया।
सजी हुई हैं थालियाँ देखो ,
गुजिया, पापड़ और गुलाल !

सफ़ेद कमीज़ भी हो गयी है गुलाबी,
ताज़े फौवारों-सी यह पिचकारी।
चढ़ा हुआ है होली का रंग,
रंगों कि दीवाली।

भूल जाओ भेदभाव,
भूल जाओ लड़ाई।
रहो सभी प्यार से,
देखो होली आयी।

Forest

Forests, so dynamic,
Heal our soul.
They quench our thirst with rivers, so picturesque,
Or provide us with a medicinal bowl!

The trees, the giants,
Sooth are body,
Their air breeze and fragments.
Sometimes calm, at times, rowdy!

At times, I wonder,
Why plunder?
The natural habitat,
The animals surrender,
But are we, people ready for tit for tat?
——
People, save forests! Please

The Story of My Fracture!

Recently, I fell off my bike and fractured my hand!
The story's in a poem, so that I can share this with you people...

11th was the day, all happy and gay!
Until it came that moment,
Of tragedy and dismay...

Oh, why I saw stunts on TV,
Why did I emulate the Magic School Bus.
I used to cycle in the evening, freely,
This plaster now, has created a fuss!

Friends, I got over-excited,
My cycle was repaired that day, fresh as new.
On that day, I somewhat became a psychic,
And fell off, breaking the screw!
