337. Cracking

Cracking crude crevices
Ruining ruled  remittances
Rummaging ruffling rife
Lewd life lull.

336.From Dusk to Dawn

Ah!  What a day it will be
When humans will beat the summer heat
And stop perspiring profusely
By reversing their timetable
From Dusk to Dawn. 

Work and leisure
Will of course remain
The working hours 
Will however interchange
From Dawn to Dusk. 


Chirp of birds will signal sleep
Star lit night will make us glee
Dazzling moonbeam will show us way
As we rise to start our day
From Dusk to Dawn.

With gleaming eyes and faces bright
Children will turn up in schools
To Study in the hours cool
And play games with delight
From Dusk to Dawn.

Demand for AC and coolers will dwindle slightly
Cooking will once again be a pleasure
Swimming in moonlit pools will be heavenly
In work we will find leisure
From Dusk to Dawn.

Seeing the humans snore
Wild cats,reptiles zebras and boars
May venture out of the jungles in scores
To check our development daily
From Dawn to Dusk.


So, relax and enjoy the view 
If you happen to see
Friends from the wild
Walking fearlessly in your garden and streets
From Dusk to Dawn.

Ah! Indeed it will be a historic day 
When amendments will be made 
In the regulation of A.M, P.M
With the rise in global warming
From Dawn  to Dusk.

335.Windfall gain

The secret was her's
Buried permanently;
She had conceived 
And received
A priceless gift
To call her own
Without ever measuring 
The windfall gain.

Destiny had a different plan
Blood soaked petticoat 
Mocked her loss
Pain numbed her 
Yet lips remained sealed
It never revealed 
The sordid state 
It went through.

She jealously
Guarded her privacy
Without expecting
Any understanding,
Pity and sympathy.
In the tower of loneliness
She relived every moment
It was her Windfall gain.

334.Emergency

Lined up at emergency
Searching for hope
Life does zip pass
Mocking each breath. 

The battle for survival
Moves in frenzied  swirls
While the fortunate click
Gracing different shows. 

Emergency emerges 
Engulfing eloquent etiquettes
Placid parity paces 
Show goes on and on.
