HANG THEM NOT ?

The question 'sounds deep,
And permeates through Nation's 
each citizenship
A seething anguish 
Over the loosing of the noose
with greasy leash.

 The extreme of violence
Chills down the spine of humans as they
mortally blench
While slips the crooks free
Through loopholes of misplaced morals
and fickle decree.

 Insufferably
The claws of the laws repeat the slips
by impotent plea.
Here beasts roar out laughs
O'er dim decries and downcast cries
of human gaffs.

 Unsolved conundrum
Of dated annals of crime controls
replay the syndrome
While quieten'd Nation
Wait and watch the un-'due process'
with weird expectation.

 And in the forced lull,
A painful vibration of doubt
torments the skull -
If frustrating course
Of 'trial and tribulation' won't end
with final recourse !!!

TELL ME NOT

                     Tell Me Not Tell me not I was once a lad; An open sky that I once had, That offered me untold delight And lit my spirit day and night. Remind me not the days and nights That told me tales and flew my kites; Many a game that I did play With heart and soul unleashed and gay. Jog not my memory I once sailed Alone for miles and there beheld On either side, along the inlet, Many a willow and flowery thicket. Bring me not back the rights all lost,  All things that came by free of cost; Affection, love, all poured on me, Even when I was wilful, naughty. I'm in my time, leave me to suffer From weakness, bloating, bugs, whatever: Let me be in my dying yard; But tell not I was once a lad.   -- 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.
