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’

Water Woe

Here’s a problem about the water scene that’s plaguing our city with the authorities taking a lackadaisical attitude about our woeful situation. Guess privatization of this inactive force needs to be the hour of the day. What say? The heat at this time of the year in Feb is rather pinching and I really wonder what it’s gonna be like in the coming months. Here’s hoping that some rain will give us a breather and in consequence fill the reservoirs and enable the water man to actually attend to our ardent need. Moving on from the tale of gloom, with the onset of summer it’s time for the sleek and svelte to don the most happening items in vogue and show off their splendid bods. To the rest of us metabolically slow, we trudge the path of heat with the longing that this brand of ‘exercise’ (or lack of it) would shed the unwanted girth! Anyways, it’s a good time I guess both ways, coz everyone maybe a winner because..........the heat is on! ....... but not the ones with lack of water...

Happy Birthday Mama Mary

I sit here thumping away on the keyboard wondering about what to write and it dawns on me…… Many years ago when I was a young girl I was approached by a lady in Church to play the role of Mother Mary. She wanted to put up this enactment about the apparition of Mary to a group of children. I did not know who the person was and was surprised - my first thought was to decline as I was extremely shy. However, she did not pressurize me and instead asked me to think about it and after doing so and sharing it with the folks, I accepted the role. This play went on for about fifteen minutes but they were the best moments of my life. Many years have gone by…but this wonderful memory remains with me always. However, I feel sad at the number of people who do not acknowledge Our Lady. Jesus said “Son this is your mother and mother this is your son” and thus we embrace Mary as our blessed mother. She, as any mother, helps us with our problems, intercedes on our behalf and in return we than...

Cheating

Why do people throw good relationships for a quick roll in the hay? This practice seems to be growing and practically every second person in a committed relationship doesn’t think twice about two timing his/her partner. However, when they are “found out” these individuals don’t think twice about promising the moon and once forgiven you can be pretty sure that they are gonna do (sic) the deed again and again. I think that once they go the entire hog, they just aren’t gonna curb their enthusiasm! Cheaters know their partners will relent no matter what. They preen themselves with having “won”! However, if a person cheats on me, I would tell the jerk to beat it. Rather be single, keep your dignity intact than stick with some douche bag. Not my cuppa … What about you my lovelies?

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...

The Price of Public Humiliation

Two-Faced You know there are people who claim to be pals just to look cool. I had this conversation with a close friend who couldn’t understand why a couple of her Facebook friends ignored her in person. After our chat, it finally dawned on her that the so called friends just wanted a long list to appear hip. She updated her status and vented her frustration. An amusing story here - the same people who ignored her added their two bits about public humiliation and gave it the thumbs down signal. Weird don't you think? Plastic Smiles How would you like it if relatives followed the same principle? In public spaces they turn away pretending they do not know you leaving you dumbfounded. Here is something that happened to a couple of friends. They received invitations for a wedding where everyone attended the blessed event. To cut a long story short, my friends and their families were ignored and treated like social pariahs by closest members of the family! When they came face-to-f...
