BEING SELFISH FOR MY DAUGHTER

When my daughter inhabits my vision,
Resides the creation in the Creator;
Nature proclaims itself idyllic on 
A fine n boonful ethereal order !
The vast cerulean walls mightily present
The glister'd images of my daughter
That no divinity can well equate
With all the glitters and glitz together!
Melt heaven and hell into the love urn
Of her motherly bosom, with kids' cheer
As i rejoice at the divine sojourn
Across the gliding rainbow of pleasure !!

When my daughter slips from my mental bound,
Do i see tears, deprivation abound,
As follow my tense eyes the sight and sound
Of sufferings; and wretchedness all around !
The plaintiff moans of condemn'd sufferers
Rupture the summer through to the ether;
Under the palls of gloom, and doom, and fear,
The fatigued earth is all tombs and litters !
In countless notes of humans' tragic fate
The reality counts render the dirge;
Divine absolute ain't a bias, yet
The bonded mind cannot notice and purge !!

Love for my daughter is a miss for man.
How can i be selfish being a human ?
And i can't live selfish if to opine,
My daughter, so, is mine, so all are mine :
Born selfish i must live selfish, for her,
And for all others truly enshrined in
Her Holiness, for my soul is ever
Bound in the soul she possesses within !!!

I DO CRY : SONNET 59

I cry, I do cry breathless like a baby. You notice me or not but I do cry-- Whole drown'd in tears--be it night or day it be-- No care if you find me absurd and wry. But I can't be unfair to cry, or vague If crying can protect me from strokes of death  That nothing else on earth can, though I beg With my bowl'd palms held heavenward in good faith. Yes, I do cry. (Whoe’er on earth will not With the betrayer's dagger stabb'd in heart?) But know my tears will flow all through the drought And grow new plants of love ere life does 'part. Maybe to kill the fatal pain the heart bears, Come out generously life-giving tears. -- N. P. SAMAL 

THE RETURN : RHYME 100

Infants gambol about their home With blooms and toys, But they return to mom's bosom For the real joys. Children frolic about the streams, In meads and hedges, But to their home they return for Their real flowerage. Youths do rush about crazy for World's whole treasure, But they return for real living To own life and career.  Adults get sunk into the labour With dedication, But this's the return to raise well Their own children.  The old trudge about the yard Of their nursing shed, But lastly they return for rest To their death bed. -- N.

MAMA'S FRIENDS GO TO SCHOOL : RHYME 90

Mama says 'No!' to monkey who wants To go to her school, The monkey gets piqued and makes  'Growl, growl, growl!'. Mama says 'No!' to squirrel who wants To go to her school, The squirrel gets piqued and makes 'Growl, growl, growl!'. Mama says 'No!' to parrot who wants  To go to her school, The parrot gets piqued and makes  'Growl, growl, growl!'. Mama says 'No!' to sparrow who wants To go to her school, The sparrow gets piqued and makes 'Growl, growl, growl!'. But all her friends do go behind her As she leaves home, And look at her through the window From outside the classroom.  Mama angrily tells them to go back  From her school, But they get piqued and make 'Growl, growl, growl!'. - N P SAMAL
