Poetry in the times of recession

October 17, 2008

Hi friends,

I am waiting in the queue to join Lnt Infotech, infact i almost had joined on 25th sept. But i guess destiny had other plans and it wanted me to sit at home and do nothing for more time. Ive heard that when the chips are down and things take a depressing turn, it brings the poet inside us to the fore. So here is my attempt at that. Please be honest with ur feedback and post in your own poetic expressions in the thread.

BARDAASHT KARNE KI HADD HAI

bardaasht karne ki hadd hai
Intezaar karne ki hadd hai

rota tha pehle kum tankhwah ke baarein mein
ab toh jaise naukri hi andhiyaarein mein
mandi ki khabron ne mushkil kar diya hai jeena
kisi aur ki naukri jaati hai toh aata mujhko paseena
yeh mere vishwaas aur sayyam ki sarhad hai

bardasht karne ki hadd hai
intezaar karne ki hadd hai..

bharosa naa thaa pehle buri nazar, ozha aur kale jaadu mein
ab lage aisa ki kisine kismat meri karli hai kaboo mein
mandiron mein roz mattha tekta hun
ghadi ghadi apna mailbox kholkar dekhta hun..
ummeed toh thodi bachchi hai magar aatmavishwas nadarad hai

bardasht karne ki hadd hai
intezaar karne ki hadd hai

subah se ladta hun,dophar se chupta hun aur shaam se haarta hun..
raaton ko computer ki madad se apni neend ko dutkaarta hun
khud par se bharosa utth jaane laga hai
ajeeb sa darr andar sugbugaane laga hai
ab toh bas internet ka sahara aur gharwalon ki madad hai

bardaasht karne ki hadd hai
intezaar karne ki hadd hai

p.s guys please be a little lenient if it is amateurish.

take care

    It was a nice one Ashwin. I hope the ending paragraph is really as what you mean to say! Life takes turns very often, but definitely you will have an opportunity and you will have to grab that. Try to give romantic poems from next time! ..poets generally write about love and express it to extreme levels….try doing that next time around :)

    Relax. B in touch. Bye and do take care man!
