Ecstasy and Gravity, The Two Sides Of Life

Ecstasy v Gravity
Life is all about ecstasy and gravity
Ecstasy is getting your salary
Gravity is EMI taking your last penny
No one feels ecstatic, paying service tax for dinning
Everyone will feel gravity more, when it’s for valet parking
Ecstasy is making fun about religion, society and yourself
Gravity is realizing you can joke only about yourself
Ecstasy is about a dream of having good days in every aspect
Gravity is about realizing good day is a brand of biscuit
Settling down in life after all the struggle in life is ecstasy.
Marrying to make it better, is the conspiracy of gravity.
Ecstasy is marriage doubling your relations
Gravity is relations troubling your marriage.
Ecstasy is always reaching office on time
Gravity is boss never being on time
Ecstasy is boy proposing to the girl he desires
Gravity is the girl saying `wait till he abdicates’
Ecstasy is a crying kid going to play home
Gravity is a weeping parent going to old age home.
Ecstasy is when weekend arrives
Gravity is when Monday strikes
Ecstasy is buying an imported luxury car
Graving is driving it on a road without Tar
To get drenched in Bengaluru rain is ecstasy
To not notice an open drain is enticing gravity.

A Mistaken Collection Of Funny Poems

What Was A Mistake?
It was a mistake to assume
At 15, grades meant knowledge.
At 20, a good job meant life.
At 25, marriage meant bliss.
At 30, a pledged home meant asset.
At 35, driving a car meant pride
At 40 plus, my poetries amuse people

What is a Mistake?
Be bothered about the glass than quench your thirst.
To say err is human and worry about six sigma
To assume grass is greener on the other side, standing in a desert.
Get married and accept that it takes two for an argument
Queue up for a free offer and say there are no free lunches in the world
Reluctantly leave office in the wee hours and claim there is no place like home.
Wax about the early bird that catches the prey and claim better late than never
 Entrust your future to an orator and understand that empty vessels make more sound
To say democracy is by the people and quell & sedate dissent.

Was it a Mistake?
My Friends said propose to your girl on the banks of a body of water
With a card, words of love and a bunch of flower.
God only knows, when I did, why she reacted like an angry clover
I gave her my ration card, a cauliflower and in front of a gutter
With romantic words, if not interested, give it to your sister.
It Was A Mistake
Instead of the brake, to press the accelerator
To believe, right turn becomes left, in reverse gear.
Insist on checking air pressure, in the steering wheel.
To confess to my wife, that she is the better driver.


Me, Books, and an Audible Milestone

 I can confidently boast that I am more receptive to technology than most 50 year olds. Right from learning how to use the Internet, to writ...
