A welcome note

It feels great to be a part of this blog. Especially when you get a welcome note as a limerick from Vivek; to which I tried to reply in Limerick too. My first ever attempt at it.

It was Neha Thakkar Silam of Mumbai
Said this to her blogger friends, "Hey, Hi
Limericks I will write,
On your blogging site"
They are still waiting for one, sigh! sigh!!

Now that I am on LimerickWala board,
want to write soon, in spite of work load
The genre is new,
The heart says phew,
Still I will try to struck the new chord.

Even the Bees came to watch....

When Mayawati was addressing a rally at the Ramabai Ambedkar Maidan, someone set fire to some bushes in a nearby compound of the Kendriya Vidyalaya and that set alight the bees from the beehive. These bees then moved rapidly towards the stage and wandered around the Chief Minister for at least an hour. After which they formed a beehive on top of the stage. Without fear, the CM went ahead with her speech so that the rally doesn't get disrupted. But an inquiry is being conducted to find out who has done this.'

A minister is the lord of all she sees,
Big Big people are brought to their knees,
So its time to say Whoopee ,
Because just recently in UP,
Mayawati was defeated by a swarm of bees





They say Bees have very sharp sight,
They buzz with the Queen Bee, united tight
They thought it was honey,
But it was a garland of money,
Glistening all white in the evening light.

The party cadre gives with affection and love,
I am sure God is watching from somewhere above,
But like someone suggested,
Incometax are now interested,
In politics you must know when enough is enough....

Fear factor

Womens' Reservation Bill will fill Parliament in 11 years with 99% women: Mulayam LINK



He thinks Parliament is like land;
You grab, you usurp, you take a stand;
You perpetuate wrong,
And it doesn't take long,
To mouth platitudes with an attitude bland.

Female takeover of Parliament he fears,
85% lady MP's aggregate in the next 11 years
Sixty years is not so few;
All these years what did you do?
Except keep appointing your near ones and dears...

If you are honest, evaluate their work,
Don't violate Parliament and run beserk,
You don't need to sin
Honest work must win,
Don't want folks who only enjoy the perks....

A Bride Called Pillow

Now the 28-year-old otaku (a Japanese term that roughly translates to somewhere between 'obsessive' and 'nerd') has wed the pillow in a special ceremony, after fitting it out with a wedding dress for the service in front of a local priest. Their nuptials were eagerly chronicled by the local media. Link

A young man Mr Jack L Hyde
His persona had a quirky side
Whether joy or sorrow
He told it all to a pillow
And thought 'why not take her as my bride?'

Ma, Why is that man attacking the teacher ?

The Saga of Disruptions : Passing of the Women's Reservation Bill LINK





Evictions 7, disruptions nine,days two,
It wasnt to be easy, we always knew,
But hooligan members,
Fanning casteist embers,
They rushed to the well, as if on cue....




Worse than school bullies, with no shame,
Attacking the Speaker, for 30 minutes of fame
Grabbing papers and mike
Throwing anything they like
And lying down on the floor when the marshals came

In the Rajya Sabha the bill has just passed
The screaming gundas have been outclassed
Now the suspense has ended
They have been suspended,
Now its time to pass it in the Lok sabha fast.....

HOLY WATER

The elders decided this year Holi would be 'DRY',
The children objected and many began to cry...
After 30 minutes of dry gulaal and glum-faced chatter,
Somebody went and blasted on the water,
Water-crisis be damned, people got wet and high on the sly!

The "Twittering" Class

One more time :Tharoor, Clarification, controversy Link

He speaks about cattle and tweets like a bird,
Is always misunderstood for misuse of the word,
Now Saudis are "interlocuter"
He tweets from his computer,
Wasting everyones time on clarifications absurd.

We know he's a writer, it doesnt need to show,
And this is not the UN, he really needs to know,
But he loves to air his views
And thinks he is making news,
A few more twits and they may just ask him to go.....
