A lame sonnet!

Happy is the guy who is in the pink of health
Not the person drowned in the sea of wealth
What everyone needs is a peace of mind
Mixed with love and sprinkled with wine
Lucky is the soul who is loved to the core
Not the Investment banker who strays alone!

Year 2009, the time is sweet and is right
To forget worries and give a strong fight
Sweets and celebration: both have come
Confused are few, Merry are some!
Blank out the stocks and the financial downturn
Guess what; you have got an intellectual upturn
Think aside and you’ll find a reason to smile
Stick to the reason and keep it for a while!

Carnival of Яust !

I heal under the open sky
I look at the bird soaring high
Rusted, bruised and devoured
Often wondering about time, people and life
About feelings, thoughts, situations.

I watch movies of different genres
I sing songs without knowing the lyrics
I talk things that confuse even me
Realizing that the mind has immense force
The creator of every need & the whole thought.

I feel educated to the minimum level
To survive, live and breathe for heaven
I have parts working in proper order
Only to deceive me at times of polar.

I question myself and seek an answer
I share thoughts with people unknown
I get ideas but no clear reason
I sense the same ole confusion.

No path is the correct path
No colour is the right colour
No answer is right enough
No discussion gives a justifying verdict
No Logic is convincing forever

I thought for a long while
I found my answer in the common cry
Out of the cocoon the cells shouted
Happiness is what we desire
To be loved and to be free at all times.

Common Sense.

An Obituary printed in the London Times - Interesting and sadly rather true.

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
- Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
- Why the early bird gets the worm;
- Life isn't always fair;
- and maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers;
I Know My Rights
I Want It Now
Someone Else Is To Blame
I'm A Victim
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.
