Poem : The New Year

Image
Year's end, year's start, In every heart, joy takes part. New the year,new the hope On dreams anew,we gladly float. New the tune, new the life A  song  of joy, hearts inspire. Let all gloom and age be gone, Let hearts with happiness be shone. New the  peace, new the cheer, In  the  new year,sorrow  will clear. New the touch,new the face, In love anew, a sweet embrace. New  the  dawn ,new  the light, May everyone's  world  be bright. --------------------------------- Poet : Dr. Goutam Kumar Mallick

Poem : The Arithmetic of Flattery

(Photo  free download from pexels.com)



The boss's walk,his rise and fall,
His likes and dislikes ----
Keep your vulture eyes busy with them.

When the ripple of his laughter lingers,
Ask yourself --
Do your cheeks raise the same wave in time ?

Make sure the words 
Flowing from your lips
Carry a trembling note of servile joy.

Match your passive smoking
To the boss's active puffs ----
Strive for balance there.

Soften your oily body language,
Mixing it well with  studied sweetness.

And master ----
Don't forget to keep
One sharp eye on the scrap heap !

------------

Poem : A Moment with Conscience

Image
One day I suddenly met my conscience. I said " What's the matter ? These days I hardly ever see you ! " Hearing me, my conscience brust into  laughter. It said, " Earlier you used to keep me in the mirror, And I too would find the chance To sting you from time to time. But now ------- I'm locked away in the deep freez, solid  ice ." --------------------- Poet : Dr. Goutam kumar Mallick
