Mr Right, Mrs Always Right And Both Doing Alright

Image
By

He loves me like a princess
On most occasions I would say
But if one fine evening I ask him to hold hands
He blames me for public display

His body is all mine
All but his fine ears
They won't budge on my melodious voice
Seems like frozen from last five years

Curiosity killed the cat
And I was murdered for asking someone's name
His stare pierced through my heart 
When I asked him a question in the middle of his favorite game

He buys me finest of jewels
His love is all stacked up in my safe
But a $10 scarf on sale is enough
For an extempore on - We should save!

It doesn't end with sports, money and food
Even my opinion is absurd
Mrs Roy was not being sarcastic
I shouldn't form my views on what I saw or heard

Please, don't blame him guys
He himself is a prisoner for life
Nearly misunderstood by a treacherous soul
His nasty-nasty wife

Between the two of us
We are doing almost alright
He is my Mr Right
And I am his Mrs Always Right

    I laughed out loud, I liked how Mr.Ramakrishnan has put it...It's hard to pick which one will be my fav stanza :) Although I will say I enjoyed the 2nd stanza very much. But beware, this is the perfect recipe that you can find in every successful marriage... There is this Mr.Right and Mrs.Always Right .... :) superbly written and a joy to read.

    Let's try this again, may this time I will succeed in commenting!

    I found this really funny, even if that wasn't the intention. One of those times that give unmarried people like me, immense happiness! :D

    It was beautifully worded, as always, and the rhyme was great too. It was a very light composition so it went like a breeze.

    You should try recording it on Sound Cloud.

    Of course you are the boss
    My heart goes out to Mr. Right
    Unable to express his side of the story
    He gives up without a fight
    Because his missus is Mrs Always Right.


    I tried. Pathetic, isn't it.

Being Human

By
Under the roof of winter, Latches of my door open without making a sound. It's cold out there, Someone lost his ground. My soul shivers, Not that I'm cold. Someone from my land, Sleeps under the bridge while dreaming of gold. How can I... tuck myself in the quilt? When the winter storm is blowing, Hopes they have built. I have to get up, Do something... Before I start questioning who am I? And, they start saying...'Humanity dies.' Let's work out something, Take a resolution. Walk across all kinds of bridges, And, just be human... From centuries people are migrating for work or for better opportunities. But, not everyone has a smooth sailing...some live under miserable conditions. Most heart wrenching fact is nobody helps them, not even people from their own countries. I know, everybody is busy chasing the bigger purpose of life. But don't you think we should help people in need? Let's try to be better human being...

I Am Not Alone

By
Last year blessed me, He walked silently into my life. It was Love, That took me in its stride. One evening we walked holding hands, Then, I told him what I felt in heart. He said we were one soul, Who were living in parts. To bring the parts together, We fought with the world and tied the knot. Being one soul, Gave life a whole new spot. Chirping birds, floating clouds, Nature conspired for us. Always swimming against the tide, Life was in an adrenaline rush. This year cursed me, He walked silently out of my life. It was Death, That took him in its stride.       Yesterday his soul was saying, Fearing memories will fade, he can’t move on. He will stay and admire me, Standing always by my side from dusk to dawn.

Rewind - September 2023

By
 I wrote the following in September. Sometimes, I feel I will forget the art of writing couplets because I am not writing at all this year. I strongly believe you have to practice to hone your craft. And I am not doing that. Perhaps I schedule a time to write a poem. Or I need better time management skills. Date Published 09/05/2023 मुझे उसके जाने का इतना अफ़सोस नहीं हुआ  जितना इस बात का कि इतने सालों तक उसे रहने ही क्यों दिया  Love, Saru
