Happy Birthday Father.

Father, wish you a very very happy birthday 
You guide us through, ensure we don't stray 
You teach us to dream, on every single day  
Your teachings we cherish, in us it shall stay

Dreams our own reflection of desires & fears 
Achieve not, dreams without shedding tears
Following you, desires remain, gone all fears
You show us the paths, lets us shift the gears

Father, we know not, how to pay you back

The traits you inculcate in us, in our bag pack  

Feel your love we can, rock solid- no crack  

Shall never let you down, a promise we tack

Father, wish cut the cake -fill you with cream
From our hearts all of us together we scream
Birthdays meant to be celebrated in full beam
Savor the moments of life, life is but a dream

Sree....

Sweet Heart (Brain)

Me an artist, loving you forever is my only art
Life in me align, my whole self follow the heart
See you my closed eyes, even if we miles apart 
Wish, you besides me always, oh! my sweetheart 

These were the lines I sent you on my WhatsApp
Not a forward, my feel for you on a look close up 
Awesome this feel, much beyond the words I put up 
When heart and heart converse, rest simply shut up

Soothing to mind this state,  never before I was in
Wish to remain this way forever, wish it sinks in
"Wake up, find out  jobs for us through linked in"
Said my Sweetheart, "we need money to live in "

Reality makes sense, in nothing else she believe
Visualize, strategize, brainy jargons in talks she give
Heart or brain? never mind -forget and forgive
Continue the art, the artist in me still kept alive

 Sree....

Happy New Year

Resolution 2020, more family time, I shall try

Full year spent at home, know not laugh or cry

No breaks, no holidays spent the whole year dry

Turned vegetarian, no more Kentucky chicken fry

Was eager to wish all a very happy new year

Pressed the send at exact time to all my dear

Even sent wishes to the aunty residing near

Now controlling myself, to send wishes I fear

But wasn't that worse the year twenty twenty

To rethink, rejuvenate myself, got time plenty

Simplified life, by settling down in my county

Will find another job soon, before I turn seventy

Pleaded to mother earth, please move faster

She did, again a Jan 1- wake up call from rooster

Shall I? till dusk- for the wishes I didn't answer

Hoping a turn around; wish a "Happy New Year...."

Sree....

Male EGO

Sweeping my courtyard early in the morning

Friend asked, from the road near, he exercising

Is your wife with you? Is it ok? everything?
Making tea, me nonchalantly answering

Why are you sweeping? this isn't a gent's job, 

Gent's job? I just want to help my heartthrob

Don't devalue yourself; said my friend- a nob

Onlookers many, agreed with him the mob 

He is right, females do it all with ease, at one go

Performing well, with all the bias they undergo

Privilege by birth, the male hold on to their ego

Ready not to accept, rose the females a while ago

Blame it on the world's design, it's for males

With it came ego- supported by the females

Took a while to realize, now change in the tale

Ego or jealousy, know not, the current rationale

Physically better the males, rest all tough fight

Exploits the softer gender with all of their might

Civilized or uncivilized, no matter day or night

Exists the bias, the ego, this world holds it tight 

Sree...

Listeners

Awesome world this, never left me alone
Everything around talks, even the stones
Debates, sobs, complaints, funny bones
Talk not, listen - look beyond the phone

Listened to my pen, exams weren't a mess
Heard my car, took over in times of stress
Office wall conferred to my career success
Pillows sufficed me with relief in excess

Each droplet of rain has a story to tell
The cloth can teach, fabulous ideas to sell
We  busy humans talk, believe we excel
Rest listen to sight, sounds, touch and smell  

Listen, ready to entice you, the whole creation    
Enjoy the feel, pleasure of communication
Hinders the fun, the sickness- self obsession
Human listeners, a race approaching extinction   

Sree....

Zero Bulb

What is today? - Sunday, Monday or Tuesday   

Does it really matter? for me it's a no workday 

Kept looking at the job websites the whole day

Ad "Online jobs", in darkness- a zero bulb ray

Part time, full time, any time -options in plenty

Easy jobs, perform even with a skillset empty

Must be genuine, ads on websites with credibility

Zero bulb off, it's all for me from the almighty

Make money from home offers one can't decline

A phone call, and got the letter to work online 

To start work pay100 bucks said the last line 

Zero bulb on, enlightened by google- frauds online 

Rightly illustrated, making easy money from home

Fakes make, for else- easy not generate income

Wait, everything will fall in place when time comes

Keep the Zero bulb on, than remaining worrisome

Sree....

Home work

Work from home; schooling from home
Victim house wife, she doesn't feel home 
Surge in the house chores, feels tiresome 
No rest any, crept in more work for home 

Work from home, always busy on telecom 
Figure out the work, require lots of wisdom 
Dress- top half formals, bother not the bottom
Home based period, enjoy!, happen seldom

Mom's mobile phone now the school diary
School WhatsApp pour in, clogs  it's memory 
Keep the phone operational Mom’s worry 
Dad acts like he on Mars, but feels sorry 

Mute camera & mic, kids skills on display 
Music movies games all together they play 
Parents sense it, the kids’ body language say 
Let go, not used seeing kids on a work day 

Sree....
