When I got turned down
Yes. It was a moment
I did frown
I had lost my crown
It was given by Mr Brown
For my act as a clown
All excitement went down
I felt cheated, used and dumped
I felt cold and stupid like a camel with a hump
I was quick to hide my emotions to some
The tears that rolled down
And smile lost shunned
I copied the rejection to a page
Now, before I engage
I read it daily to control rage
It is an antidote with no expiry date
I understood life but a bit late
The virtual world has grown with tremendous speed. There was a time that letters were posted and written. Some reached so late that the person who waited almost expired. There was telegram with few important words within a budget to inform people on the other side of the hemisphere . Then FAX, yes it had trouble with the machine all the time.
As internet stepped in to conquer the old modes of communication became obsolete. Cards were no longer available randomly, people sent and received e-card. Telephone got replaced by Mobile phone and very quickly, smart phones iPod etc. had captured the market. Now most of the calls were made on internet.
Phone bills reduced and internet bills took over. It was cheaper and faster. Now, we didn’t go shopping we searched online and then we visited to purchase or order online. Trips to market got reduced? No! trips to market increased because now we could find items more easily and conveniently. All the sales were announced with push messages. Ladies were happy and gents , not that much.
Then 2020 saw pandemic, the life screeched to a halt. People were afraid of dying which is very natural and now internet played a vital role. Retail, banking, education and information flowed across the world as people remained locked inside their houses.
Sometimes I wonder if this led to all information pouring into the internet and getting caught in the web. Everyone must have logged in and sent some sort of information. Those who hack or monitor the websites know a lot more about us.
But then who cares! Privacy was not present when we sent postcard which literally had everything exposed. Our smart phones locate us and pass our personal data to the satellite. Sometimes I wonder what is the use of it? Except for tracing criminals, or finding money transaction. Normal people hardly have anything to hide and their life was simple before and is simple still.
The little ball of love
Looks so cute
Looks so soft
cuddle him touch his ears or nose
give him a finger
or a fragrant rose
he will smell it
or lick it
then roll
open his eyes wide
and ask you who told?
No one Kuku
I smile as I hold
the bundle of joy
in my arms
close to my hear
tfeeling that love
which rose
in his little heart
that open without force
I find tears rolling down my cheeks
the words were clear as ice
it broke something inside
shattered beyond repair
shocked to find myself betrayed
not by him but by me
although I had promised
no more miseries
here I was with a heart break
How can now I take
Need to shake roughly
Get awake!
You are not
anything more than a waste
So no more time for yoursake
Got better things to do 😉
I said to my broken heart
at the burning stake of love.
