Fading Relations
No more love in relations
No more respect for nature’s creation
Man is becoming self-centred
All the world is full of hatred
Cheating in exams becomes headlines
And the same in relations becomes deadlines
The law of Economics
Holds true in all commands
Lesser the supply, Higher the demand
Love and Honesty are just the flaws
And are top most followers of law.

THEN, WHY DO I HEAR these ?
Every third day, when I read the newspaper,
I read that a girl, a woman is raped.
Then, the next day I read,
a huge crowd lit candles on the India Gate.
Then, on the television, it is shown,
that a woman is burnt, by her soul-mate.
So an hour later on the same channel,
some people gather, to have a nasty debate.
Once again, I hear from the elders,
a foolish girl committed suicide!
Then, on the inquiry it was revealed,
that due to her gender, she was tortured to every height.
In an article of a magazine, it is told,
a girl of age ten plus two,
is married to a man, so old,
whose age is more than sixty-two.
In the evening, on the radio they say,
a lady is sold in a far-off village.
For money, she is sold by her own family,
and by her new owners, she is locked in a cage.
The next day, the next day, the next day,
everything is normal & fine.
But again the next day,
against a woman, one more crime!
Laws are made, acts are passed,
still, we women are always harassed.
Is the society illiterate to understand,
that we are the reason for the life on this land.

!!! Kinner!!!
Louder do they clap,
louder do they sing,
swiftly do they glide
softly do they swing…
Broader do they smile,
unevenly do they tickle,
they create a laughing climate,
and sound like fresh tasty pickle
They dance at our births,
They dance at our weddings,
we please them with some cash,
with dresses and some beddings….
But we never feel their pain,
and just count the money that they gain.
we never listen to their lyrics,
They sing in anguish and bitter strain….
They just wish for a girl or a boy,
that can live a life full of joy,
they never wish for a kinner,
that never lives but die as a sinner…
