Watch Out

Watch out!
When you are alone on a solitary lane,
Because the world outside your home is turning day by day fiercer .
An unknown person with a pleasing smile can be a violent horrible stranger.

Watch out!
When you are alone
Even in your home
Because even your sweet maid 
Can be cruel and ill bred.

Watch out !
When you are out alone
For purchasing in a shop
Because an evil minded can put your life to a stop.

Watch out!
When you are in public
Don't be careless when you speak
Because an important information
You may unknowingly leak
Which can turn your dear one's life bleak.

Watch out!
Whenever you are traveling
Because may be a pervert on nearby seat is boiling
Boiling to give you a doctored drink
So that to his evil designs you may sink.

Watch out!
When a neighbour or a kin
Approaches you out of blue with a sly grin
For lusty whims he may try to win
Life can be an upheaval
If you don't use your IQ level.

Watch out!
Because this world is no longer a paradise
And listen to time's advice be wise
Otherwise you may have to pay a heavy price.

Watch out !
Perversity, terrorism,lust and greed are reigning
Under the veil of innocence and goodness
Only evil is prevailing
Make vigilance your tool
Otherwise you will sooner become a fool....

Papa

One more year has slipped by Of course, now there are no more audible cries. Yet, the pain of your departure is still acutely strong, Nothing can be done to rectify twenty two years old wrong, When you were quiet aware of the chiming of your death gong. And decided to suddenly without any prior intimation to be forever gone. And those final twenty four hours seemed to be so heavy and long, when from human form you were turned into ashes who was once so strong. Alas! that day,  It wasn't you who were solely  gutted in that so called holy fire, So much more was turned into coal and tar, Your younger ones' innocence and elder ones' desires were with you for a while gone. With you gone, Suddenly the warm gusts of this dreary world were chasing your progeny. But law of life is to keep going, Day or night, Dawn or dusk, Alone or with people around, With or without you, Life moved on and is still moving. But though physically missing  Yet, you haven't been completely forlorn....

Tribute to Father

TRIBUTE TO FATHER IS AN EFFORT TO GIVE WORDS TO ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES IN DAV (ONCE MY HAPPY WORKPLACE), JASWINDER SIR'S FEELINGS WHO OF COURSE, ACKNOWLEDGES A MOTHER'S CONTRIBUTION BUT WISHED A FATHER MUST ALSO GET HIS DUE IN HIS CHILDREN'S UPBRINGING. I HOPE JUSTICE HAS BEEN DONE THROUGH  THIS SMALL EFFORT.  At times ,cold as ice yet comforting and balming, hard as coconut but sweetest at core that's a father's pretenceless heart, sturdy as a mountain an unshakeable support, rough and rugged as a road that for sure leads to  the beautiful resorts, Such is the beauty of a father's love. Love that makes no audible noise, That mostly abstains from public display of affection, But round the clock makes sure that the fire beneath the hearth of his home shouldn't ever extinguish, Works like  an ox, Doesn't mind what it takes blood, sweat or tears Every price for his little ones' smiles he is willing to pay.  Often misunderstood,  often underestimated,  oft...

Mom

Motherhood is the most beautiful and satiating moment of every woman's life. The mammoth task of rearing a child becomes the sole driving force behind every woman once she attains motherhood.One of the most beautiful moments of my life was also undoubtedly when l had 21 years ago seen the face of my first born for the first time and another was when the Almighty had blessed me with my younger born 19 years back. Since then the centre of my life became the two children born to me. Day in and day out a silent prayer for their health and well-being goes on in my conscience, and that's what every mother does. My profession the sublimest one i.e teaching has mostly female staff who have a strong motherly instinct and are thus able to relish strong bond with the students. Present day teaching demands rigorous in-service trainings. The teachers like me attended various workshops from time to time in order to enhance their skills. During these workshops we got to interact with the teac...
