These are some of the poems(not sure if they can be called poems, they look more like rhymes :-)) that I and one of my friends used to chat in orkut. The poems are no master pieces but the fun that they have brought, the creativity that they have brought out is something that is close to my heart! Don't expect some great poetry here!! You might find it absolute crap!! I am going to present this in the form of conversation because that is what it is; A conversation between me and my friend.
Ah!! How good is poetry..
Makes u forget all
So much that i want to learn pottery..
What say...we call ourselves "kavi" and "kaviyatri".....?? :-)
Me:
Whenever I think of Poem,
What comes to my mind is Linoleum,
And more irrelevant is Petroleum,
How does it matter, life is after all a Colosseum
Kedar...good morning!!
Hope this morning will have good beginning.
And may it result in an awakening...
Let it also be pleasing...
God!!! But I don’t want to attend that MEETING!!!! :-)
Me:
Of course I m enjoying it,
coz there's nothing annoying about it,
I hope I m not cloying it,
But my enthusiasm is buoying it
Sorry cud not reply as I had no time...
but I will if u give me a dime...
also I will mime...
pathetic attempt...but cudnt get a better line....;-)
Me:
Time time time....
Yes, it was lunch time...
Going to canteen has become a crime...
This heat is making me Sublime....
All I want now is a Juice of Lime...
Even if I get for a Hundred Dime...
Me:
Looks like u r very busy,
Don’t work much, u may get dizzy,
Moreover ur hands cud get greasy,
Just relax and get some fizzy!
Yes ...what to do?
I hate the heat too..
Shall we tell the sun boo?
Or else we will have to cry boo hoo...
chalo then ...why don’t we have some BRU?? ;-)
Me:
O yes, I like the coffee brew,
But when there's the morning dew,
And not when the sweat's sticking like glue,
It would be so nice if I flew,
I would go and turn the Sun into cool blue,
No more of heat and no more searching for any clue.
A nice painting i drew...
Which my sister threw...
Into the brew...
And what came out was a mystery of
The mystery consisted of a crew...
with captain called Andrew..!!!(lol)
Me:
Hey, even I like to paint,
I thought of drawing a saint,
But that would make the saint taint,
And it would be very quaint,
Which would then cause people to faint,
Don’t think that I m not good with paint,
That I a'int
Painting is a good stint,
The colors should have given it a good tint,
And I am sure u were eating polo mint,
Or else it wud have become something like a glass flint...
Hmm...then u wud be sure to see my eyes go glint!!
Me:
Polo mint reminds me of FOOD,
Delicious and palatable tastes so GOOD,
I don’t know why some people BROOD...
Over eating and spoil my MOOD.
I pull over my ears and head a HOOD
and forget everything coz i m a DUDE
I was getting lazy...
And getting cozy...
Watching a sick serial called lizzie..
I wish I had had something to keep myself busy...
And not to make things messy... :-)
Laziness is not a good trait,
It makes u weak, u cant even stand straight,
It also makes u put on weight,
U also lose the count of date,
U ll not feel like lifting even a small crate,
Who knows, it may even stop u from meeting ur soul mate!
Hmm..being lazy is good on a Sunday..
When
When we u feel dull and dark like an ashtray....
So, on the floor i lay..
Thinking about the sun and the hay..
Wishing I cud jump and play....
The thought made me get up and i made a doll of clay....
And at the end came to the conclusion that the lazy thought made my day!!
Me:
The day was not made by the lazy thought,
It was made by the idea that u bought,
Hadn’t u implemented the idea that u got,
Your day would have been dry as in drought,
I hope it is my point that u caught,
That the day was not made by the lazy thought!
Talking of skill..
It’s a good way to improve them...than to have them killed..
Better than fancies and frills...
or to grind them in a hammer mill... (Bad one... ;-)
Let’s take it as high as the hills...
It is very important to hone our skill,
It is much better than the sandwich on the grill,
But it requires lot of thought and drill,
Once you get started the thoughts begin to spill,
And there's no way of staying still,
All you can do is shake and trill
Me:
Talents can be of any form...
Paint, Sing, Dance or Act but follow no norm...
Whether in office or in your dorm...
They help to soothe your inside storm...
In cold weather they keep you warm...
Music is livin..
Meant for enjoyin..
That’s why i am learning the violin...
Onto the ears its pleasin...
Ppl in my house find it annoyin..
They feel i am squeakin..
One fine day they will be at my concert, rockin..
And that's why i am still practisin...
Me:
O you learn violin, that deserves a wow,
But I hope it doesn't sound like a dog's bow bow,
Neither like a mooing of an old cow,
Peace of mind is what I expect it will endow,
I also would like to learn the violin, Could u show me how?
Friend::
all u have to do is to gently hold the bow..
not roughly as if u r going to row...
have determination as i take u into tow...
be patient as i show....
and i am sure with effort and praise you will glow
Me:
How can I glow, I m not a lamp,
Hanging on a roof suspended from a clamp,
If u call me a lamp, My eyes will go damp,
And i will not take u along when I go for a camp,
I shall break the violin with a big stamp,
With the broken violin I ll walk on the ramp,
And let ppl know I m a star and not a lamp
Me:
Could not have got worse than this...Sorry for breaking
Friend::
Firstly...I will kill u if u do something to my violin...
Secondly...I think glowing is not a problem....
Confused??
Good! I will explain when time comes ;-)
Me:
Oh No! I don't want to die...
What I said was a big lie...
I ll glow like a lamp even it makes me cry...
Weep and weep until my eyes go dry...
Promise u won’t kill me, I ll breath a relieving sigh...
Thinking about all this has my BP's gone so high...
Life is so beautiful; don’t make me say Good Bye..
Make it colorful with emotions and not with Dye!
Friend::
hmm...good one..
i cant think of anything matching this rite now..
but i will end it for today...
Friend::
As time ticks..
I check the clock and it is six..
Well, at the end of the day...i have no more tricks..
If ppl work beyond six..
They generally tend to stick..
And finally get into a fix...
And hopefully they don’t get in a jinx....
Me:
All good things have to come to an end,
Let’s call it a day and leave this bend,
We ll come tomorrow and try to mend,
After all this is not a dead-end!
Me:
Wah kya baat hai! Congratulations to u....U have brought out the poetic genius of me...How can i ever thank you!
Thanking me is not a big deal..
After all we have got a lot of zeal..
Let’s see if can meet up on a meal...
Or let’s learn how to make a film reel...
U cud also treat me to a chocolate of oat-meal...
Then it wud really be a steal!!
Friend::
Last night i got a dream,
We had formed a team...
To bake a cake full of cream...
But we had also select a theme...
After i heard this i started to scream...
Coz what fell on me was a beam...
Thank God it was not "Bheem"...
Or else it wud have been me who wud have become cream...
Me:
Wow that was some really good imagery,
A good mix of fantasy and drudgery,
The baked cake will need some fine crockery,
I hope you won’t take my words for skullduggery,
Coz they are not meant for any trickery,
I don’t want to blamed for treachery,
And finally imprisoned in a sanctuary
Now is the chance
to get up from the trance
to take a stance...
show some nuance...
and start a war dance..
With a lance....hehehe
I think that was weird,
It made me scratch my beard,
All the thoughts in my head were cleared,
Unintentionally I realized that I sneered,
Coz your thoughts had me steered,
In spite of all this you ll be always revered
U want to revere like a sage..
I don’t think i have come to such an age…
Pl don’t such tell such things...difficult for me to gauge…
it may also send me flying into a rage…
I might go and sit in a cage…
instead dancing/singing on a stage…
Revering is not only meant for sages,
Even a book can be worshiped by turning its pages,
Even bacteria is revered by Phages,
Some people are held in respect in different life-stages,
It could be me, You or even animals in cages!
Ya, thinking about it made realize that u are right...
u have suddenly made life look bright...
At the end of the tunnel i see light...
also u have induced into me the germ of flying a kite...
I hope the string is not too tight...
will u help me loosen it without starting a fight???
Me:
Fighting is not something I look forward to,
I think Life has in store better things to do,
We can find music even in a bovine moo,
Or even in a pigeon's coo,
All we have to do is find the right clue,
And not waste time by s(h)itting in the loo
Me:
I m sorry about the concluding line,
But I thought it fit in perfectly fine
Me:
I like this message a lot,
It is natural after all, that’s what I thought,
But for some ppl it makes their blood clot,
As if the said thing was said-to-be-not,
Out of anxiety ppl jump out of their cot,
But I find it cool and not so hot
For a while let’s shut
or else we will have to stay put...
We all will might turn into nuts...
Lets go out for lunch...
or for a brunch...
Me:
I don’t want you to brood,
Go and have some food,
We ll resume when there's a change in
I was sooo hungry that i thought i cud not last...
and I thought it be better if i were sacrificed by being fastened to a ship's mast...
and as I continued to fast...
my mind was aghast...
so I went and had a feast to end my fast!!!
I just had the one-one
it was so bad that i felt that i was in a pig's pen...
so much that i felt that i felt like pecking like a hen...
Recollected the fact that the sword is less mighty than a pen...
I started to comprehend...
that there were things I needed to mend...
Took a decision and came out of the manager's den...
Hey, I was in On our next project meet,
The discussion was animated and kept me glued to my seat,
As to what to reject and what to greet,
The requirements are huge like a large fleet,
The decisions made were jotted down on a sheet,
How much I felt of having a nice sweet,
But the discussion's incomplete and have to for another meet
Not much from you today,
In snacks did u have many "vadey"?
I hope they were not "sadey"
But now I am leaving for the day,
Anyways, Have a good day!
Let the project iterate
let the features itself animate
be sure of what you are gonna create
onto to
confirm that irritants are in the stage "eliminate"
or else they will tend to irritate
I am sure it will be great
and for a release party, we will negotiate 
Me:
So you do have a release party…
I hope it is genuine and not arty…
It should not be as short as a military sortie…
Military reminds me of the famous Cuban Jose Julian Marti…
Lets the leave the military, I wish your treat is hearty…
At the end of the celebration, everyone will go farty
This release..
We wish it goes on with ease...
I hope its not a tease..
And will please..
And also appease...
O I am sure I will become Japanese...
Me:
Japanese or Chinese, they are all the same,
However much different they are, they claim,
Given a chance they ll run behind the dame,
Even if they have no idea about her name,
Finally ending up bowing their heads in shame!
Oh...they run behind the dame...
That will make the dames go into flames...
Looks they are difficult to tame...
Coz they don’t take the blame...
But you've got to agree that they have fame.
Coz they very well play the game...
why don’t we take a chance to tame them...and get some claim???
Training them is a good choice...
We ll get a chance to raise our voice...
And shut them up when make lot of noise...
And reprimand them with loads of poise...
But we shud remember they are not toys...
After all they are little innocent boys!
Just bcoz there are boys...
they should not be coy...
We need to employ...
a person who will get
surely he should not annoy...
But allow us to enjoy...
Me:
Enjoyment is the spice of life...
It rejuvenates you after so much strife...
Gives a married man relief from his nagging wife...
Whose words cut right through your heart like a knife...
All we have to know Life is full of enjoyment, it is rife...
This reminds me of a story…
Do u know it??? The one about Socrates and Plato???
Story? No I don’t....
Will u tell me, don’t say u wont!
Don’t worry…
As I tell u the story…
The story opens life's mystery…
And will end all misery…
It was all about Socrates’ theory...
Of saying that "wife is life"
unfortunately, his disciple Plato thought on the contrary…
As Socrates’ wife broke onto his head: crockery...
Plato, for his master was sorry...
He changed Socrates’ statement to "wife is a knife which cuts through your life"
It's fascinating to see how the characters unfold,
Poor Socrates, his wife was pretty bold,
How could she kill him, her blood so cold,
Did she have any soul, Or was it sold?
I will to do the work; carry…
I am sure i wont be sorry…
Better than becoming Barry or Larry…
For that matter i want to be potter Harry…
Me:
Harry potter is something I don't read,
Somehow I never felt the need,
I think it is something that children heed,
Somehow I never did that deed
Friend:
Though i did get the opportunity...
I did not feel the necessity...
Nor did i feel the intensity..
I guess i did not have the clarity..
Me:
O So even u don't read Harry Potter,
I don't know what about it makes it so sought after,
I would rather go to a zoo and see Fish and Otter,
Than read that book and go to a Doctor!
Friend:
I agree with this chatter…
That the book has no matter...
My dreams it shatters...
Brings with it witches and wizards on a platter…
They jinx and mix ppl, blood and stuff like batter…
And b/w potter and Sheldon, I prefer the latter... :-)
Me:
Hey that was a good one,
Reading it was so much fun,
Search for flaws, there were none,
That doesn't mean that we are done,
Our poetry has to shine, as bright as the sun,
Don't worry about other poets, we ll give them a run...
For their money and they ll be behind us with a gun,
But we ll teach them non-violence and take them to a nun
Friend:
This is really cute..
Proves that conversations can take place in the mute…
Looks like we have got good loot...
We are surely not crazy coots...
Well i want to wear a boot…
And give a loud, shrieky hoot....
Like Popeye and say "toot-toot" (lol)
Me:
Conversations are more effective in Silence,
They bring out your inner resilience,
Just like the electrons in the orbit
Exchange positions to achieve a balance,
If you want to know your latent talents,
Listen to your heart with utmost silence!
Friend:
U forgot the conscience
Listen to it with obedience…
Also with sufficient patience...
And perseverance…
Coz it is of utmost significance…
When it tells you something with insistence…
Wake up with an idea of renaissance…
And find it building within you like resonance…
Me:
Indeed, We have to be very conscientious...
Life requires us to be extremely scrupulous...
Any kind of mistake can prove very dangerous...
Some people tend to become very religious...
Under the veil of which commit crimes very vicious...
Forgetting that truthful persons are more revered than are pious...
But ultimately it is the truth that overcomes the malicious...
And wipes off the snakes which are venomous...
So it is time for people to stop being barbarous...
And lead a life full of love and not callous!
I could go on forever...The words ending with -ous are numerous!
Friend:
Wow...this is going on so nice…
With lots of salt and spice....
More with virtues than vice...
With absolutely no malice…
We are composing poetry in a trice…
Quicker than the throw of a dice...
Our poetry will fetch a good price...
Let’s make most of it...before it gets infested with lice :-)
Me:
Creativity cannot be killed with infection...
It is an ant-resistant confection....
It has a straight-to-heart connection...
Our quest is always towards perfection...
With lots of ideas, it is a beautiful collection...
There may be case that we may encounter defection...
But to our flow of innovativeness, there can be only interjection...
As it is our heart's mirror showing the right reflection
Friend:
It’s good to work with a motive
To be extremely active
Bad to be passive
Let’s be more creative
Get praises in massive
I feel that's the way to live...
Me:
Today's day dint start really well,
Some things happened which made my head swell,
When I woke up, the day outside had a sweet smell,
And thought it would be so nice if in the house I dwell,
But that beautiful feeling I had to quell,
Is it fair to come to office with weather like this, u tell?
Friend:
Definitely not fair to come to office to meet a boss…
With whom i was cross…
Who is as cold and dirty as moss…
Whose brain works slower than ms-dos…
Yesterday, he sent my mood into a toss…
I vented out my anger on my friend who is as sweet as candy floss…
Then I realized that i turned our friendship into sauce…
I had indeed occurred a loss…
This was really gross
Me:
Friends for life are extremely important,
They bring joy to life, which is otherwise stagnant,
Show us the path to success which is relevant,
Make it a point to meet, no matter how the schedule's stringent,
Life without friends is type of infringement,
So this is an earnest plea, Dont make your friends distant,
They are the only ones to come forward, when there's a requirement!
Friend:
Peace and harmony was something my heart bid…
To the relation which was turbid...
And was sordid...
Onto my fears and inhibitions, I forbid...
I spoke to my friend being candid...
She dint bother about the things I did…
And finally the relation is now splendid...
Me:
You effort to normal the relation appreciated,
The fact that your heart is true cannot be negated,
The proof is the talk, in which you participated,
And resurrected the relation, otherwise deprecated,
The pardon of your friend has been understated,
I am sure you and your friend are more than elated,
This occasion is rare and should be celebrated,
The time is now and this moment should be confiscated!
Friend:
On friendship, I take this oath…
To it, I will be active and not loath...
It is simply cannot go on without both...
On all my friends, I will dote…
Coz friendship cannot proceed in an oar less boat…
All this I just want to quote...
All of us should remember this by rote...
Let the person not following the above be cursed with a sore throat!! ;-)
Me:
Today's day has been dedicated to friendship,
This is more important than any other relationship,
People sideline friends when in courtship,
Friends should not be ignored when sailing in the Love ship,
They are the masts to cling to when in hardship,
So give your everything when in friendship!
Friend:
Reading the blog let other poets dread...
Let them fret, fume and see red...
Lets make it difficult for them to seek their own butter and bread…
Let’s make it clear that it’s not our paths that they should tread...
Else to bizarre tracks they will be lead...
And now that in comparison with others we are far ahead...
Shall we continue with previous poem or start a new thread??
Me:
Nah...Let’s stick to the old one,
We are by no means yet done,
Comparing us with others poets is so much fun,
I m sure we ll give them a run for their butter and bun,
I take this opportunity to thank you a ton,
Without you all this would have been none!
