POEMS OF DR. RAM SHARMA

UNEMPLOYMENT
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, SENIOR LECTURER IN ENGLISH, C-26, SHRADHAPURI PHASE2, KANKERKHERA, MEERUT, U.P., INDIA
Having degrees in bags,
The youth is on crossroads,
They are impatient, sad and helpless,
From where they can arrange money,
To grease the palm,
From where they can arrange political pressure,
From where they can arrange familiarity?,
The question remains
Which way they should adopt?,
To clear away this unemployment

BALAJI
A place
situated between two hills,
Lord Hanuman drives supernatural ,
with his powers,
Pretraj sarkar guards the premises,
devotees come in line,
to get the blessings benine,
Balaji strenghtens us,
to fight against evil forces,
Jai Balaji ki

PHULERADOJ
[ A FESTIVAL OF FLOWERS BEFORE HOLI]
Fragrance fainting us,
Atmosphere of love all around,
Young girls , small kids,
wandering in search of flowers,
flowers of every colours amidst fields,
Placing those in baskets,
they are spreading nature,
in every nook and corner,
of the village,
Dancing and chanting
in full moon,
Each and every,
Is merry

RAM-LILA
People`s fervour,
to act and react,
against the evils,
presentation of Ramayana,
with good acting skills,
Before the celebration of Vijayadashmi,
People`s participation,
with Ram- Ravan,
Lakshan- Bharata-Shatrughyan
Indrajeet-Kumbhkarna-Sugriva-Bali,
Above all destroyer of evils,
Hanuman
religious pangs with simplicity,

TEEJ
[A FESTIVAL OF RAINY SEASON IN NORTH INDIA]
Swings on boughs,
All man, woman under trees,
Man to support woman,
to carry swings to long distance,
Chanting hymns with music,
reign of greenary everywhere,
Women are gathering,
from all corners,
New clothes, new ornaments, new zeal
mixed with nature
hue and cry everywhere
Nature is worshipped
all the day

YEARS
Years,
passed,
of this century,
in the hope,
era has changed,
to see something new,
perhaps,
everything will be changed,
but what happens with thinking,
do something positive
it will take years,
to build
