One Happy Gurgle



Love is a four-letter word they say
Without it life can go astray
Melts the shackles and burdens of life
It even brings with it for a man a better wife!

Expectations can bring you down when life strikes a bad deal
Look at the big picture and accept some curses of the wheel
Do not let worries get you down
God always has a place to be free and out of the ground.

When things get going to a better place
You are in a better phase
Remember no matter what the drill
Forget the mean voices they drive themselves shrill.

Sex may be the way out of the doldrums
Without a blink you can be in the maudlin dungeon
What do you do when this strikes you in the face?
Do you think of another obscure place?

Nope

Fight it out embrace the prize
The reactive force of a highly charged sex drive
Nothing says happy ever after than the love and kisses of a child
Unconditional happiness personified

Life without that four-letter word called love
Is nothing but anger and pangs of distrust
Some try to bring you down for sure
Forget the losers and their stench of dour
You have the gift of life with a little one
Who gets you out of the doldrums with a cheeky smile and rambunctious song!

You come full circle in spite of negative voices
Ignored their self-righteous choices
You took a stand
Ignored the pied pipers way to implement his brand
Some say the sheath would have prevented the stigma
You let love flow and brought out the wondrous enigma

She stares at you with her cherubic smile
As you laugh away at her beautiful glorious eyes
Pick a name with glee that is synonymous with her aura
Rhymes pretty much with the best every pretty flower
Thank the Lord for all His mighty gifts that He gives you
Venture to a life full of happy and glory
With the little girl who lightens up each and every blessed day

She gurgles with happiness and you sigh at this wonderful creation
That was made in hasty abandon without protection
Love finally brings you the life
Found in the little girl while he sought a wife
No children in his loveless marriage
While you enjoy the smiling one who graduates through school and college
You made a life of happy ever after
And enjoy the love that she radiates with her squeals of laughter

When she brings home her choice of partner
You realize that she has found her happy ever after
Bless their union with cheer amidst sadness
And watch the baby girl walk to a life filled with happiness
She looks back and whispers with tears in her eyes
‘Mom thank you for giving me life …you make me gurgle… uh uh… I mean smile’

In the Bloghouse

Pssssssssst I have a secret that I wanna share with you… I have been diagnosed with an illness called FIMS aka Foot In Mouth Syndrome. I’ve tried many times to get over this, with mind-over-matter techniques, herbal remedies and even self awareness classes online, but to no avail. Trying to soothe a friend who was dumped by some loser dude I listened to her rant and rave about his meanness for some time and then advised her with “forget him, there are many more fish in the sea.” Needless to say that was FIMS playing havoc again which nearly earned me a black eye! All she needed was some hand holding during this period and I advocated the “move on” mantra. Since this has proven time and again to be the bane of my existence, I have decided to do something and get this out of my system ASAP. The first step that I’m going to do is curb my enthusiasm about juicy news that I hear and refrain from spilling the beans to the person being gossiped about! Crappy feeling, but I have to tr...

Can You Chill Out with Your Mom? Can You Add Her To Your Facebook List of Friends?

Whoever said that you couldn’t be friends with your Mom is probably thinking old school mother. I am certainly no teenager, neither am I in my 20’s but getting closer to dotage (uh uh). Over the years, however, I noticed that my Mom was one of the coolest Mom’s in school, college, while I worked, in between relationships and when my marital cord snapped. Let me let on how cool she was and has been through the years. When I had my first crush – she was very disappointed, and rightly so, though at the time I was angry that my secret was out. Here was her youngest with a boyfriend, and in her teens! It was hard for her to digest this since none of the older siblings went down this road. When she found out, all hell broke loose, she screamed at me, stopped me from going out, but she also stood by me. The boyfriend went away as did the friends’ circle. She never left my side, and held me while I sobbed away because he was my one true love (at the time). Ah, the throes of the first dabble...

Narrow Path

When I look at your arms on the cross stretched wide Your eyes filled with love encouraging us to drop the divide But no matter which way we trudge You love everyone without even the slightest grudge. Temptations all around enticing us with its wares How do we ignore these pangs and stop its glares? Many ridicule us because of the road we follow Help us set an example and travel the path of straight and narrow.

Doctor Hungry

I have been the route meeting with so many quacks that I am fatigued at the way some doctors/specialists don’t think twice about ripping patients off. Having said that however, I would like to point out that there are so many earnest doctors who go the mile and are an honor to their profession. This post is not about the earnest doctors, but the rip offs. Sometime ago I sought the professional expertise of a renowned specialist who had an entourage to handle her every whim and fancy. I paid to consult her but was tossed aside to meet her intern! Being ill and hazy, I had no say in the matter but this left me extremely annoyed that I had to stiff up a large bill… for what? With irate friends, colleagues and relatives who have been shortchanged by a few quacks, I have penned a couple of lines below… Doctors, physicians, radiologists, new life healers, and others we have met Treat us with disdain and mere guinea pets A pill here, blood transfusion there and scans everywhere Set...

Beginning of the End?

A short story here... Just read and let me know what you think? I haven't concluded the story just going with the flow. The erratic nature of the power supply left the entire city in the lurch and this seemed to be a frequent occurrence. In spite of pleadings to curb global warming people paid no heed to the warnings and this brought about the swarm …. The beginning was when the entire country was wiped out in darkness and stampedes all over going on well into the night. Headlights of passing vehicles were the only source of light as generators were giving way because of the scarcity of fuel available. Every living being was being held hostage because of the “no power and no water” adage. No rainfall = less electricity = no water = no produce = malnutrition. The crops were in a mess, pets were getting crazed, and livestock was dropping dead by the minute. Drought was at an all time high. Neighboring countries pitched in, but this deluge was gaining momentum across cou...
