Dream - Plan - Strive & Continue...

A smart little boy in school, when the Teacher Questioned,
What do you aspire to be - apart from what is Destined;
Thought much for nights Two,
Peers wanted to become Doctor, Engineer, few wanted to Sue;
Next morning he ran to the Teacher & Said,
I would rather prefer to be a Banker Instead...

When the Teacher asked Why? Asa kasa kay? (“Why So?” in Marathi language)
He said because the Sky is so High;
To earn & be the richest will take me so much Time,
Better I manage to accumulate the rich mens' wind Chime;
Percussion will be theirs tune would be Mine,
I would secure their funds with a thin margin Line...

No wonder what he Became,
Dreams fell in line & Came;
He got a job in an ICMC, (Currency Chest)
Bundles of cash at every glimpse he could See;
Weeks, Months, Couple of Years later,
He realized he had been a Waiter;
He waited for Success to come to Him,
Never did he approach it with a Strong enough Limb;
Nevertheless he changed his Mantra & Dream,
The Road to success is Persistence & a Strong Smart Team...

He started his own Bank,
Very soon built a corporate office from lending over a wooden Plank;
Time made him Realize,
Trust & Service to the customer made him Rise;
While the rest were busy drawing & crying over the target Graph,
He served his customers more than he ever did to his better Half...

The difference between what he Was & what he Is,
Is only the perception through this Iris;
Dreams do not come True,
Without even some efforts Few;
One needs to Dream - Plan - Strive & Continue,
To enjoy success with overall Aerial View...

What do we need ?


From the sudden Dawn,
To the delayed Dusk;
From the Queue for spoons,
To the Quick tea dips in rusk…

We feel so anxious to chase a target,
Keep running through to lead the market;
We get soaked into the ocean called volume,
By EOD get banished almost like a smoked fume…

Given a chance to pursue your heart,
Leaving the strained routines apart;
Gifted an Extra Leave or two,
Let’s think what New would we do…

Apart from gazing at the TV within four walls,
Apart from keeping busy updating posts – attending calls;
Apart from lazing on the beloved bed,
Or visiting our HomeTown instead…

Is there something which we love to do,
Some hobby undiscovered – Some interest which we never knew;
Is there something more loved than Sleep,
Shall we dig into ourselves down deep…

Let’s pursue what we Never paid a heed to know,
Let’s get a Direction – instead of just being a part of the gushing flow;
Let’s discover Ourselves before it gets too late to know,
Let’s Cultivate our minds before it starts to snow…

Not every Freedom owns a Flag


Freedom is what we celebrate,
Freedom is what we crave;
Freedom is much thought about,
Freedom is my question very naïve…

Free were the rivers caught by us in a dam,
Free were the forests & parrots so green;
Free were our expressions captured in a cam,
Free were our feet devoid of a cover rexine…

Free were the beggars who shared & ate,
Free were the docks before constructing a gate;
Free were the pigeons without a building around,
Free were the trees without a cemented compound…

Free were the city labour working on a field,
Free were the crops grown today only for yield;
Free were the hills before being cut for a road,
Free were the destination driven vehicles & the people onboard…

Free were the winds dancing before, now sliced by a blade of windmill,
Free were the rays of dawn before, reaching the sunrise point uphill;
Free were the droplets of unpolluted rain,
Free were the stones imprisoned to run the train…

We did this all for our own gain…

We are free & are equipped with an army on borders,
We have the court & a pen to pass all orders;
We have the Freedom to command & change,
We have the right to snatch “few things” in exchange ??
