DELAYS – USUAL AND UNUSUAL


POEM

Sorry for the delay.
It was not deliberate.
Such things happen sometimes.
In a city
where the streets
are broken, pot-holed
and crater filled
where the vehicles
are mushrooming day by day
without corresponding
infrastructure development
where the road accidents
are order of the day
unusual to usual delays
are part of the game.
Until a complete overhaul
of infrastructure is done
we are bound to cope up
with all obstacles and obstructions
along the way
the rhythm of life
goes awfully wrong.
The speed with which
life flies ahead
anything could happen
anytime in this ‘brave new world’.
Despite all these hazards,
no one is confined to
his/her world of loneliness
instead everyone puts up
a brave face and speeds
ahead come what may…
but longs for a

world of all facilities…..
