THE TEST

The TEST!


“Do not talk while you are doing the test,” 
announced the mean bearded pest. 
Now SHSHOW it, no one lookin’ this way Quick! 
What’s the answer for 1a? 
My chum is all glum and pale “Pss-st!” 
I whisper down the aisle 
Joey is mumblin’ the response in caution, 
Alas! 
I detect a footfall in motion! 
My – my. . 
it’s too damn late! 
He has sealed his fate!  
A pair of brawny hands grabs my pal 
And hauls him up paper and all! 
He’s going to blurt; I fear a demotion! 
The beast is squeezin’ a confession 
No beans spilt no cats let out, 
but Poor sobbing Joey got a rosy butt 
The ugly teacher contorted and yelled 
“I told you do not talk while doing the test!

Baba I miss you.. .

BAABAAAA . . .  Such a small and cuddly human,  yet so strong!  Baba, you were so tender  and so, so soothing.  I miss you terribly.  Wherever you are. You were there when we needed.  You just gave and asked for nothing.  Now you are gone,  I feel a part of me has gone too. In my youth I was horrible,  yet you accepted me,  when others were critical, You gave me hope! What have I given you?  Nothing!  I couldn't even come to your death bed  and cremation. How I try to solace myself, saying you are so understanding;  and will not hold grudge. But I feel guilty and helpless  and angry at myself,  for losing such a precious person  from my life . . .  forever . . .  Wound may heal, memories may fade,  I don't know. But the world without you will be  So much morbid and loveless. That I know.

Educate Him

Wake up Rohan, wake up; today you’ve a test! He eats up Calculus and Calorimeter in good jest, Chews on mundane axioms one, two unto five And belches theorems of geometry dead and alive. Rohan moves to school in nonstop research and reveries, Of his tutors with monstrous knowledge from mortuaries. Oh! Does his face turn turtle or purple? Of course not gentle As he taps, the electronic face spews out data that startle! He ponders o’er not so green a “Green Revolution”! He is rushed to the Pink City o’er the deep blue Ocean He learns of blue litmus that turn rancid with acid And suffers lessons on Yellow Fever and how things go placid ‘Rohaan’ calls the French Madam and goes on to grill On this and that and history of *Courville She checks her watch set on patterns o’ Conjugation And, yells to the class to take her petite translation The great India history is a funny story The boiling point of Hydrogen below Zero degree! Geography turns so dreary with
