A friend ( who we'll affectionately refer to as "Small Wonder") and I found an interesting way of Killing time. We make poetry out of scrap! check it out...
SW:
Where art thou?
I'd like to ask thee
How u doin pai?
Are u taken or free?
;)
Pai:
Blessing is it,
Or is it a curse,
Free as I am,
To reply in verse.
:D
SW:
Free as you are
So am i!
Was goin thru friends
And saw sudhir pai.
Pai:
So good it is
To hear from thee
What friendly tidings
Do you bring for me?
SW:
Life is a drone,
It's just work and work.
Is it the same for you
Or do better things lurk?
Pai:
Life, a drone? is it?
A vacation is what you need,
To charge up your batteries,
Your creative cells doth plead.
SW:
A vacation has proved futile
For my sense i havent got back.
Sometimes sane sometimes senile
It's the fun that i think i lack :(
Pai:
Work life is hectic,
But it is not a bore,
I pray it's better,
For you in Mysore.
SW:
Not hectic as of yet,
But yes, it is a big bore
Staring all day at a black screen
Is more than just an eye sore!
Pai:
I thank thee for the pleasure,
I had a great time,
To speak of my listless life,
In lines of decent rhyme.
SW:
Haven't written like this
For donkeys years
Thought you would gladly oblige
For you possess the ear!
Pai:
These lines I’ll cherish,
And keep for posterity,
Some day I pray we meet,
And laugh at our preposterity.
:D, Thanks, Small Wonder! Orkut's never been so much fun! [:)]
Cheers!

good stuff pai!!
long have I waited
to post my comment here
but my words just don't sound as
good as yours, I fear
constraint it may be
to make these lines rhyme
but no better way can there be
to kill some computer time
it's a skill i must acquire
writing rhyming nonsensical sense
for that however i require
a bit more aesthetic sense (?)
like i said...
it gets progressively harder
and the words take over the matter
as the rhyme takes over the sense
and there appear words like wherefore and hence
:D Good Stuff from you guys!
@sam:
nobody's a great poet,
neither SW nor I,
that does not stop us,
from giving it a try,
yours is a great attempt,
I do not lie,
and it'll get better,
so here's a high-five!
cheers!
loved it.. :)
and i...
still smiling :)
Lines of poetry,
could measure a mile,
If only I knew,
It could elicit a smile.
Keep Smiling!
