A Doggerel About Love!!!

On feb 13th 2005 i had this wicked idea to test everyone's literary skills(patience to be precise).Read on this little(read long) doggerel.

Just read on if u have guts!!!
Later dont complain that u have gone nuts!!!




the first time we met she was so simple,
i thought she had a nice dimple,
her voice was melliflous ,
wondered what her name was,
like the oyesters were her eyes,
she was a celestial beauty in guise,

when she asked my name,

i was close to fame,
being acquianted with this "dame",
I never again felt the same,

i was always in a state of reverie,

oblivious of things around me,
when she took my number,
how many times i called her up i can't remember,

One day i resolved to speak my heart....,

to tell her that i love her a lot,

i wished to give her a big boquet,

as huge as the milkyway,
i dressed at my best,
and rehearsed for the tryst,

the number of roses were hundred,

of colours yellow ,white and red,
i wrapped the flowers ,
in soft colourful covers,

as she came along,

i broke into a song,
but as her stare was long ,
i sensed something wrong,

i propsed to her,

said i love none but her,
she said she had no such feelings for me,
i felt as if jolted by a "tsunami",
her words hit me like a thunder,
and broke my heart asunder,

then she went away,
never to come back my way,
i stood there dumbfound,
feeling a void around,

i sat on the bench,

not budging an inch,
i looked at the flowers,
still fresh after many hours,

then i noticed a group of old people,

making something with leaves of peepal,
to my way they gestured,
to be their company in this orchard,

i took some flowers for them,

they praised me "you are a gem",
at their sudden affection my eyes moistened,
and looked like droplets on a rose petals's end,
as i bid them goodbye,
i saw them cry with joy,

now my heart felt lighter,

and life looked much brighter,
then i saw a group of children,
picking up rags under the sun,

i gave them the flowers i was left with,

and watched them jump with mirth,
they gave me boats made of paper,
and dolls of chocolate wrapper

my heart's joy knew no bounds,

hearing their shrieking joyful sounds,
rising out from the ocean of despair in which i was drowned,
now to the eternal kingdom of happiness i was crowned,


-Sravan


Never crib or cry over unrequited love, instead shower ur love on people who need it most!!!


Where is the reason for the guy in this poem to be heart broken...he never gave his heart away and it is still intact with him...he was never betrayed either....so this guy remained happy as ever showering his love on everyone without asking anything for return...thats true love.....He is LOVE!!!

PS:Now dont complain you had bouts of headaches and nightmares after visiting my blog:-)
