How I wish to be in control: length,
breadth and height
till I am beautiful, in and out, in colours and light!
And, I need to put on more cement and sand
as I must, on my own, faithfully stand
while the bamboo supports crumble down
with decayed jute knots of grey and brown!
On a journey- at halfway- without ties at the roof,
I’m accused of eating away each pie all aloof;
the future isn’t the hope but an unpredictable malice
where moving forward is a game of dice
as I never understand whether I shall be a waste
even after a final cement paste!
The present and the future appears a wide gap
while I am stagnant without a clear roadmap!
Unpaid too lie my loan to a bank
while BBP, I feel, isn't yet a full resource tank;
but still, your workforce is the only choice now
and I need to be completed anyhow!

Coronavirus and I
My fate is crushed with your rise,
My school has closed to my surprise!
No teacher, no swing, no slide;
Each space is wide, each normal set aside!
Against the wall is hung my bag
Scattered are the books on the rag;
My new dress is in my mom's care
My shoes too are lying bare!
Nursery rhymes no longer thrill
All day long, my fate is at home still!
No more ice-cream, no town for me,
No going out; fewer friends to see!
Back home and jobless is my dad,
Times are bad and mom is feeling very sad!
I'm exiled from both of them by a gap,
I am banned from my grandma's lap!
Amidst the silence is a beam of hope
As, with the gracious kidu, we shall cope;
My country has a kindest King to care for all
Corona virus shall fall and we shall rise bold and tall!
