MAMA : SONNET 129

You may pick her for the Vinci's famous frame,
But crave won't she to being a Mona Lisa;
Neither will she for Michel's arty acclaim
Love, if returns the sculptor of the Renaissance.
For she is Mama, and not like any other.
O yes, so rare is she by brain and beauty,
And by perfection does from damsels differ, 
Yet too unknown for you to hear or see. 
The world is fill'd with magnificent beauties,
What if appears not she for you to notice?
And Nature's ceaseless with pleasant melodies,
What if unheard is her mellifluous voice?
Let her grow in the divine concealment
Till our character's cleaned off defilement.

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 P Samal 

MAMA'S FRIENDS GO TO SCHOOL : RHYME 90

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