Our lives obviously have changed

No doubt, we grew up steadily,

somewhere between situations

a silent sobbing to avoid notice,

or crying loudly to seek attention

between several kattis and mithis

turned face to side when eyes met

or a tight hug for a long haul and

keep a trusted pal close to d' chest

 

Undoubtedly, we grew up steadily

somewhere between such sitch

munching 7 panipuris for 1 rupee,

and now panipuris 7 rupees each

between d' real grandpa at home,

and the online grandpa's webinar

crave for mom made home food,

and d' online dainty pizza burger

 

Undeniably we grew up steadily,

somewhere around acceptability

a play be over in a happy ending

or at d' end to endure the reality

Steal eclairs from sister's pouch,

now gifting her most lavish outfit

making mom wait for 5 minutes

or snooze button press to repeat

 

Doubtlessly we grew up steadily,

then with broken pencils and toys

now hurt relations, broken heart,

stamped as errant vagabond boy

Then cry out loud, get what u want,

to fulfill d' wish papa pressurized

now suppress desire, hold d' tears

even completely crumpled inside

 

Presumably, we grew up steadily,

being d' true best friends forever

knew that nothing truly lasts long

even if d' differences are covered

then vigorously wished to grow up,

at present want to be a child again

between the let us meet and plan,

let us plan and meet, we burgeon

  

Finally grew up steadily between,

eagerly waiting and wait forever

between parents clinch our wish,

and fulfilling our parent's chore

waking up sharp at 6 in d' morn

not to be late for d' school bus

and now turned into a night owl,

only a catnap in morning hours

 

Grew up between even and odds,

when we ponder, do understand

silently but surely reshaping ensued

our lives obviously have changed

Dreams can't be a reality through magic

Parent's house,

d' one and only abode,

one can go to dozens of times

casually, with no formal invitation,

even after carrying out a heinous crime

 

Parent's house,

if its entrance door is locked,

assuredly put d' key in d' slot

enter straight with least hesitation,

with no grumbles, no dissent, by default

 

Parent's house,

a house that has loving eyes in wait,

stare at d' door until they see you

if a lousy delay with no valid reasons,

are extremely pained,

yet express no negative view

 

Parent's house,

reminds you of your carefree days,

stability, merriment in childhood

an adorable spot,

your presence sought,

you're hero, judged as a Robin hood

 

Parent's house,

look at d' faces of mom and dad,

a ceaselessly cascading bliss

talk to them, evidently a reward,

an ever welcome moment,

 can not afford to miss

 

 Parent's house,

the house that if you do not go to,

the hearts of d' dwellers do shrink

if dining time arrives,

and d' awaited eaters missing

to have their food or drinks

 

Parent's house,

explore and evaluate,

assess it with extreme care

d' merit of it before it's too late

always lucky are those children

who have to go to d' house of their parents

 

Parent's house,

where two candles lighted up daily,

twin energies to work together, symbolic

work from early in d' morning until night

reminds work, workplace, to be a workaholic

Parent's house consistently tells,

hard work can oft beat d' talent but

dreams can't be a reality through magic

Handles all the muddles and worry

D' rough book bears d' entire load,

likely liabilities of all other subjects

ought to have the worst condition,

never surmise alarmingly to object

 

Fair books found too neat and tidy

deftly maintained, well decorated

enjoy their individual convenience,

rough book's existence not admitted

 

Often kept on d' face to go to sleep,

owner snores loud, its pages flutter

shearing pain felt as if getting torn,

but not a single word it tries to utter

 

Heart shapes drawn on my pages,

1st letters of names tagged together

detached those from me, tied to the

hydrogen balloons to float in the air

 

Wildflowers and withered leaves

again traced if love gets shattered

feel d' metamorphosis of seasons

Summer ensued, Spring departed

 

Carry several half-resolved sums,

scribbled d' insolvable memories

noted in offbeat handwriting and

code words, only he could read

 

Berries kept and ate with rock salt,

in torn pages rolled out to packets

crinkled to paper stones to hit and

to make paper boats and rockets

 

We never recognize d' company of

one alike rough book in our family

who can clear every single obstacle,

handles all the muddles and worry

What's left to settle, dared his mind

I seek divorce from my husband

it might look to be a little absurd

his fighting spirit has died down

not able to tackle me anymore

Mere 18 months of our marriage,

but can't tolerate him any further

looks listless, can't fight with me,

I must approach you, your honor

 

His love is absolutely suffocating

she claimed, unlike one real love

no shouts at me on any occasion,

and on no issues, tries to disturb

Cooks for me without hesitation,

and helps finish household chores

she further stated with emphasis,

pardons even if I make a blunder

Wish to enjoy a quarrel with him,

but that opportunity I always miss

hard to adjust with a docile hubby,

wish honestly to pursue a divorce 

Agrees for anything and everything,

odds and evens on Earth's surface

ready to jump into a well if I urge,

won't hesitate to join a horse race

Even if I commit a massive blunder,

for that also keeps quiet, forgives

can't enjoy an argument with him,

that opportunity also I always miss

Willing to obey and act as I guide,

is submissive to all my commands

does whatever damn ever I wish,

moves along as per my demands

D' judge was surprised to hear this,

a funny case, one of its own kind

if d' husband agrees to everything,

what's left to settle, dared his mind

Least cared for the death summon

"Listen, as soon as I shoot myself,

take my body to d' Chancery garden

no one to spot me out after my death,

set it on fire, no trace should remain"

Bodyguard Heinz Linge got shocked,

heard in silence, he further continued

then go back to my room, gather my

uniform, papers, all d' articles I used

Set fire to all those without any delay,

not d' oil painting of Frederick d' Great

I told my driver to shift d' Anton graph,

safely out of Berlin city after my death

In the last days of life, Hitler worked

slept in a bunker, 50' below d' ground

but took bitch Blondie to d' Chancellery,

to d' wreckage of buildings all around

He asked Eva Braun to go out of Berlin

she declined d' advice, told I'll be here

the Russian troop were coming closer,

d' last 10 days, in fact like a nightmare

Traudl Junge too stayed in the bunker,

till d' last minute, never tried to desert

d' most trusted secretary unfolded, he

could hear d' firings, bombs, gunshots

the last weeks of his life, just horrible,

feeble, fragile, be moved only with pity

whole body shaking, d' shoulders bent,

bravado blew out, clothes unduly dirty

Those gloomy days in d' stuffy bunker,

resolved to marry Eva, d' female friend

and give legitimacy to the relationship,

could write Eva Hitler Brown, her name

Eva gulped champagne at d' wedding,

Hitler insisted on a marriage certificate

he was asked to put an autograph on it,

his signature looked like a dead insect

Sipped champagne, spoke of youth days,

called Prof. Hasey, in a tone high pitch

asked if cyanide capsules, trustworthy?

tested it on Blondie, his beloved bitch

d' test was successful, Blondie died in

a few seconds, he had d' least regrets

finally met his comrades after d' lunch

shook hands, didn't look at their faces

With his wife Eva went inside d' room,

just then, an ear-splitting noise heard

Magda Goebbels screamed at d' door,

at last committed suicide, oh my God!

the door of Hitler's room, broken open,

Eva laid on d' sofa, knees bent on chest

d' bouquet kept there, fallen on d' floor

Hitler had put on his favored blue dress

Linge muffled Hitler's body in a blanket,

and brought it to the Chancery garden

Borman lifted Eva's body in his hands

Hitler's last days mates saw the scene

Tribute paid, d' dead bodies set on fire,

all raised d' hands, shouted 'heil Hitler'

a strong wind blew, whispered d' truth,

in listless steps while back to d' bunker

No matter how mighty one might be,

the scary death can mutate everyone

a true lover only to carry on with you

least cared for the death summon

Now wished to behave li'l naughty

 

D' Whatsapp retirees group of 15,

planned for a catchy get-together

to meet over the morning snacks,

for merriment, chit-chat, pleasure

 

Also funny talks, music, and songs,

of course lastly a sumptuous lunch

they met, exchanged warm wishes,

shook hands, hugged, enjoyed a lot

 

Had good food, drinks, and dessert,

thanked owner for d' arrangements

d' boy brought d' bill,

too many hands stretched

all wished to grab d' bill for payment

 

A strange scene, evidently created,

with each one fought to take d' bill

manager espied d' appealing manner,

admired d' love and their good zeal

 

Each curious to settle the invoice,

finally one amidst the fifteens said

if none permits d' other guys to pay,

how d' bill ultimately is to be paid?

 

He generated an idea and trumpeted,

we will organize a mini running race

all to take a round of hotel premises,

who reaches the counter first, pays

 

D' manager was just amazed to see,

such a decent and a generous batch

he willingly agreed to blow d' whistle,

d' race began steadily without a catch

 

Retirees enjoyed d' party to d' fullest,

today d' 3rd day of d' manager's wait,

d' brief running race can turn so long,

none could reach the counter as yet

 

No wake up to d' call of d' alarm clock,

no meetings, no goals, nor any targets

unlimited time to be spent aimlessly,

but hard to unfurl d' whole happiness

 

Retirement a new chapter, amazing

for all sr. citizens above d' age of 60

acted as austere warriors all along,

now wished to behave little naughty

Be a smoke, spirit, drugs free guy

 

God created d' seniors that day,

guys to last for period li'l longer

but might turn lethargic, inactive,

unless few dispositions in order

 

In His wisdom, He adjudged to

turn them forgetful at that age

could be made to search for d'

ATM card, keys, d' eyeglasses

In the bargain do more activities

walk, bend, hunt, intent probing

and God looked down to assess,

discerned, enacted a lofty thing

 

Sensed there was another need,

made them lose the coordination

drop d' things and to pick those up,

need d' bend-stretch-catch option

 

Now things looked amply well, yet

reviewed it further and reassessed

human beings, a reluctant species,

thus considered to go little ahead

 

More exercise in their best interest,

to get used to, up and downs more

unsure, yet have to march onwards

it's God's will they must remember

Granted additional calls of nature,

often a bit of bladder over function

little extra job allotted to d' seniors,

more trips to d' washroom to be on

                 Life, just a jar of jalapeno peppers,

can relish it at the present moment

unaware to face the terrible music,

d' next morning impotently in silent

 

To be bedridden, dying of nothing,

yet health nuts often appear stupid

active lifestyle, fresh healthy food,

tastes awkward and smells rancid

 

Aging death preferable and decent,

favored to death in disease/ cancer

can't escape from its clutch anyway

why panic, suffer, and get tortured

 

Sound health is merely a possible

retarded rate at which one can die

make life simple, extend longevity,
