Attempt

Once I rode an elephant of the ilk of horses but slower than snails;
I traveled around the world through the mountains, roads and rails,
It took me to the sorcerous country with fairies and flower hails;
To the good and generous peoples who care and felicity prevails;
They received and fed me and my elephant without any assails;
For all I found this new magical land had nothing but sweat of travails.




For the next morning I never wished but surprised to see
Snow White, Ice Princess, Cinderella, Jasmine and Alice;
I saw many fortresses, castles, jungles and the talking bee,
I never felt so magical and happy that I wanted time to cease,
Children of all color and young ones of all animals all were surprise;
I was entertained and celebrated with the most beautiful emcee.




The world I came from was a lot different and I lied
“I live in a beautiful country where with peace all bide;
The birds sing, the cows moo, we eat and no one cried
We live happily and healthily and no one ever died”
Applaud came from all over like a million crackers fired;
My wish came true as as never before I was so deeply admired.




I didn’t miss my home, I didn’t miss my friends, I didn’t think;
I found new joy, new entertainment, new homage and I lost my stink;
I charmed and kissed all beautiful girls and I had my drink,
I roamed around the country and watched everything without a blink,
To write a poem I sat down and dipped my pen in the ink;
Syllables flew, I started likening my world and my heart was going to shrink.




Seven days later handsome, handing and happy I was a lot;
Without a trace of my pen or the ink or the poem or the thought,
My old belongings, my family, my friends and foe all I got
For I was back in my sweet old country and with everyone I fought;
The life of mermaids, magic and mystic I had long forgot
When faded the whisper or whimper or better something naught. :)

ghita's deewani ... :)





Ghita, I’ll wait for you my dear Ghita
Tonight, at our place, do come,
But when you come don’t come as you do…
Usually, empty handed, who else
Is gonna wait for you as I do?…
A whole night, just for you my Ghita?
Show me just one other girl who
Can love you as much as I do!
