what to do??

sometimes struck by the feeling,am i doing right or wrong???
"hey whats funny about this thing?""are u sure this rhyme's where u belong?"

"if so move on come on come on"have u ever procrastinated?,
till ur rational thought is all alone,
suddenly u find ur heart is sated by the work thats done and gone.

then!!!! should u proceed? ,will it lead anywhere?anytime?
will it ensure further happiness indeed? or will it styme ,the remaining time

the question's an enigma,an answer to which would require,
a bit of unmigitated GREED,and the RHYMONSTER's special brand of FIRE



GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

dont try and find any deep meaning.it was late and i was zonked.if its good its by mistake.

new beach

t'was on a work sojourn,
hard at it,trying to learn!
time for lunch t'was,
had a heady repast n time to pass.....

wandered further from designated stack,
to find a beach.....time stopped on its track!!!
sandy shores covered in shells,
swaying palms moving in spells!!!

lay on a coconut tree-trunk,heady peace,
no soul in sight,sweet sea breeze!!
letting waves lap upto ur knees,
life lets up , troubles temporarily ease!!

had i, more than an hour's time,
had i, more than my mind's eye,
would have saved up some part of this,
RHYMONSTER, always does share his bliss!!!

GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

with arms wide open

everyone says it,very easy,yes!!!
"ive got lots of friend(s)",
but as we track father time's progress,
words slow down from our end!

the guy/gal who knew u intimately,
is still waiting in an unread mail,
frustrated as u reach out,lately,
no-one is out there to post bail.

each root of your human tree,
requires equal care and comforting,
spend ten mins if u are free,
in wishing some one something ,anything!!


let it be "good day" ,"happy birthday" or even "whats up? doc!
trust the RHYMONSTER,this is the easiest way to ROCK!!



GREETINGS RHYMONSPEARE

PLEASE NOTE EVERYONE IN UR PHONE BOOK DESERVES TO BE CALLED OR MAILED ONCE IN A WHILE,U NEVER KNOW WHO WAS THINKING OF U AT THAT EXACT INSTANT,ESPECIALLY BIRTHDAYS,COME ON, IS IT DIFFICULT TO CALL SOMEONE ON THIER BIRTHDAYS??I KNOW 2 GUYS WHO HAD FORGOTTEN MINE FOR YEARS AND HAD TRIED VALIANTLY THIS TIME AND MADE IT.I FEEL DOUBLE GOOD, EVEN TRIPLE GOOD.AND CALLING FOR RELATIONSHIP BUILDING WITH ANYONE IS THE SOLE TOP OF THE CHARTS REASON ,WHY I LIKE MY MOBILE PHONE....

journey

tis on rolling beast,i did decide,
what doust everyone try to hide?
do thy paths cross squires who hide thier talent?
or calm oceans with angry currents latent!

come across eyes with hidden calculative greed,
or a dame who's independent yet wanting to be freed,
messrs with vanity lurking in abeyance,
the guilty who long for soulsearching penance?

venusian affection for specific souls,
hidden in the shallows amongst the shoals.
a messiah who was altruistic to thou,
yet in need of help the most! how?

ye know,a light rain eventually brings up moss,
but in light of day ye search for cause,
say all"let sleeping mutts lie!"
yet i still seek the missing piece of the pie!!!!!!!



Greetings Rhymonspeare

will i wont i??

will i ,try not to reconsider,once reconciled?
will i,ever stop perfecting,again reviled?
wont i,procrastinate for no reason at all?
wont i,wait and worry about the impending fall?

will i,truly believe what u always see?
will i,reveal the secret or confuse thee?
wont i ,as always appear- so confident?
wont i,assuredly forge ahead in any event?

will i,let last doubts ,cut me off?
will i,think twice about people who scoff?
wont i,dementedly grin away any barrier,
wont i,be myself or "is the rhymonster scarier??"



greetings rhymonster

DAY

WAS DRAGGED OUT ONE DAY,
TO WITNESS YET ANOTHER,
BUT TECHNICALLY THAT WAS THE DAY,
I DECIDED THAT MAYBE HE WAS BETTER..
THEN I GAVE HIM CREDIT FOR OR HIS COMPANY,
ANOTHER DAY -- ALL THRU ROAD AND BEYOND I SAW BLANK HORIZON,
IN BETWEEN WHAT TRANSPIRED UNBEKNOWNST TO MANY,
AS, A FACTORY EMERGED THRU ALL THE HAZE UNKNOWN!
DAY IN DAY OUT PEOPLE RUMINATED,
GOSSIPING ABOUT HIS PERSONAL AFFAIRS,
YET A FITTING REPLY RETURNED FROM HIM SATED,
A WORLD SO TECHNICOLOR,A WORLD REALLY STARK AND THREADBARE!!
TODAY TODAY TODAY,,PERHAPS SHOULD BE TONIGHT,
I RETURN YET AGAIN SAYING "OUTTASIGHT",
FOR NO MERE MORTAL CAN BEAT RAM GOPAL VARMA--YAAR,
CUZ TODAY I ENJOYED A HARDHITTING MOVIE--A SARKAR

Greetings from the RHYMONSTER

linkin park -the truth

most of you have never recovered
from the truth the RHYMONSTER uncovered
linkin park was what improved my world whole!
even if u believe that sorta music is loud hyperbole!!!

still the lyrics unleash a rage ,
thats latent,means :- beneath the surface,
god help the age ,
when it gets out and tries to keep pace.

the music has the right mix,
and my mind seeks it like a much needed fix,
the lyrics teletype thru my mind,
and i match 'em on wavelength and then REWIND

baseline-- "go ahead lie to yourself
uve not heard it my way",
to each his own ,so often affirm to many,
"Linkin Park rulz,,and on this point ive got company!!!!!"

everyday someday

impossible to be cheerful in every post,
especially when boredom sets in,
time to cheer for the illusory coast ,
and let the idiot box in!!!

time for some mindless entertainment ,
discordant images bestowed at the speed of light,
time for couching casts and plotting scripts,
or casting couches and scripting plots-damn blight!!

for,its known to many potatoes,
that once ur down u cant get up,none,
the RHYMONSTER is at least safe in happy throes
"i dont have a couch in the first place,young un"!!



GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

as by now you have guessed ..im contemplating buying a television and the need for it is great i fear!!!oh yeah also i stole 10 words of this poem from "calvin and hobbes" ...ok ...enjoy

hey ya divya

now enough really about the rain,
the denizens are questioning "is the RHYMONSTER sane?"
will this be the day ,i launch into a tirade,
naah!! im just gonna extol the virtues of shade!!!

thats not to say i have anything against the sun!!!
for thats who im named after..his rays..every single one!!
so quick change of mind..do you mind sunny thoughts???
or silly rhymes sans errors or blots!!

Behold- a new visitor,since we are talking of monikers,
she's named after a lamp???brilliant or slightly terse??
whatever yours truly -"sungod' doesnt mind saying,
welcome to the RHYMONSTER's world-"are u straying??"!!!



hey guys new visitor ...dear lady do comment!!!
GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

rain again dawgs

sky going wavy,clouds coming grey,
mind growing heavy,thoughts comfortably astray,

try standing melancholy,when darkness cuts thru day,
god's tears rechristened,as the heavens bestow thier spray,

unwitting silence,restructured train of thought ,
could not escape confinement,by the showers ye are surely caught,

give up on thinking,ideas flow free on spot,
leave it to the rainman above,to twist faucets as destiny has wrought!!!!


GREETINGS RHYMONSTER
GUYS THERE R LINKS NOW ....CHECK EM OUT ..WOO HOOOO

welcoming huuh????

arun ,is coming...oh!joy behold;
arun ,is coming...oh!woe behold;
actually we look forward to his arrival truth be told;
cos he's joyous ,witty,amusing ,a guy pure gold!!
then why this ambivalence of joy and forlorn??
our joy depends on the side of the rhyme he got up on!!!



GREETINGS RHYMONSTER
hey guys this one was waiting for me on a board in my cousins house in PUNE...needless to say im touched and u guys can appreciate the quality of the rhyme
THE RHYMONSTERS SALUTE

rain rain glow away!!!

if i ever dread a thing in all,
is to stay in a land with no rainfall!!
no sense of foreboding,no acrid perfume
great gods of lightning and thunder fume..

every drop drops to where its meant,
in crystallne pools or down a vehicular vent,
to some a basic nuisance, to others manna from heaven,
do u see what i see? blessed peace- a state of zen!

humanity silenced by a few stray showers,
nature unsheathed unfurling her powers,
instant equality be ye man or four footed!!
are u dry heathen?? waters swirling unpolluted.

the rhymonster always enjoys one good rain,
for nature's fury soothed away by monsoons reign,
to be under one of them thunder showers,,
" for a minute there i thought i had super powers!!

NAM

who i for one consider mighty,
are the dudes/dudettes in NIIT,
but specifically the need to mention,
one gal who seeks redemption.

for infinite forwards unattended,
sis,in a mail,i swear,ill end it,
but what i need in reciprocal,
a large comment on this post--"be vocal".

cuz i know u check it every week,
lets face it! this blog is pure plain speak,
or maybe a monarchs mad nest,
at times sad or full of zest.

to sally forth and continue,
i need every one to pay their due,
for the RHYMONSTER thrives on verses,
a wondrous comment or choice curses!!!!1


hey namita how about a comment for this one eh????
love RHYMONSTER
and all that talk of NIIT is a little white lie,..hehehehe

WONDERCOUSIN

we welcome ye to this fair site,
and refer this verse to one-- polite,
who offered excellent advice to one,
oh! alas! confucius has begun!!!

twas one bitter and grimy nigh(t),
myself wondering "where dost i fly?"
when perchance a thought stuck anew,
lets call yonder damsel -me cousin true..

as the verse preceded, baffling mind of thee!!! ,
wonders to heavens--unlock the dread filled in me ..
now am back to windswept crossroads of questioned intent,
do i or do i not..repent??

for the answer to this muddlesome squall,
i have guidance from my genetic good gal,
forsworn i am to try again ,
or admonish RHYMONSPEARE -- thine own self in vain!!!!!

GREETINGS RHYMONSPEARE
this one is written at 11.30 pm after a conversation with my cousin at 9.30 pm..Thanks meeta
ARUN

D- TOX

time stretches out for me it seems, as i wait to embark soon,
but once im on,i look out,thru the window at a solitary loon!

vistas,landscapes,picture perfect.oh yes the journey well begun!
may be neverending waters,lush trees,or a luminescent sun half done.

whatever u see is fleeting even as it stays with u forever,
oh! ur thinkin "contradicting statement"--the RHYMONSTER is so clever.

but as yet whats unseen is what clings to you on this shift,
3 hours of peace and laziness ..u guys get the drift..

for many have complained that im a talker a chatterbox..
too bad ur not with me now in a train,feet up-caffienated brew..D TOX


GREETINGS RHYMONSTER
SAME TRAIN RIDE ..LAST FEW HOURS WERE A DRAG TO TELL THE TRUTH
LOVE YA GUYS/GALS

close encounter of the animal kind

on a lone platform,time passes ye by,
cast thine eyes ,nay! behold(s),
framed against a blurry sky,
a beautiful animal,its wings unfolds.

a majestic haughty cavalier bird,
chooses to rest among mere men,
180 deg swings its vision unblurred,
as it casts its spell,to feed the den.

then floats gracefully away into,
yonder sky infinitely free,
this Eagle, i hope gives thee a clue,
cause the RHYMONSTER suggests-u leave him be!!


GREETINGS RHYMONSPEARE..
NOW THERE WAS THEM THAR BIRDY ..UP ON THE ELCTRICAL RAIL LINE ON THE PLATFORM AT QUILON RAILWAY JUNCTION AND WELL I RECKON I THUNK TO MYSELF...I CAN GIT A FEW LINES OF SOMETIN HERE..ARRRRRR

the bottom one is from left mani,kesri,murtu,aarsh,yours truly,gupta and prakhar in front of the sun temple at konark...those were the days....sigh 

hey guys please note the pics.the one on top is murtu and sameer standing and sarkar,me and mani sitting in front of the taj mahal..isnt it beautiful..sob wahhh. 

she or me?????

she is an enigma.. a vision!!!!
she is unbridled intuition!!!!
she is everything so earthy!!!!
she becomes mysterious, yet free!!!!

i m watching on longing to know,
i m waiting for signs to show,
i m hoping for,striving for ,
i m attracting her to a distant shore,

is my dream so futile?
is there a chance im juvenile??
is my insanity far removed from life?
is my reality in constant strife?

me,i know not who she is?
me,myself and my bliss,
me,is not why im here...
me,the RHYMONSTER wants her near!!!!!!!!!!



GREETINGS RHYMONSTER..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

what life wants from us

did thou ever have the feeling that LIFE was dragging us around,
letting us fly for a while and cutting us to the ground..
i myself like to control LIFE...like a rhyme,
all worries booked and waiting in turn for thier time.

no unknown situations waiting to burst forth suddenly,
all such situations handled with planning and repartee.
a look to the future and thou know what awaits...
begone!! sorcerous soothsayers..i dost know my fates!!!!

to thou it appears that the progress be slow,
LIFE-- its ethereal...sometimes shoveller at times snow!!
unbeknownst to many the RHYMONSPEARE is feral ,
this nature is sheathed in laziness n atmosphere carnivale.

so all u knaves out there in yonder garden,
know this now,cause thou shalst wonder belatedly brethren,,
that the RHYMONSPEARE is loyal to all and fun,
because tis HIS time that keeps coming under this sun!!!!



AYE.....GREETINGS RHYMONSPEARE

air raiders

once again, on the plane
seems like time's, flashed forward in vain
same great moments,solitude does rule,
0.75 times the speed of sound ..coooollll

the food's slipped, a notch or two,
n da service up there,JETs still true,
fun to check in and even to deplane,
u guys all know ,im so insane !!!!

slippin past what looks like canyons of icecream,
dive thru one ,its as hazy as a dream
unending strange vista..magnified n reversed
sudden bouts of turbulence--magic interspersed!

forgot to mention about my co fliers,
silly old suits and nutty babes for hires
striking sudden meaningless conversation,
for they are wrought ,whatever be thier vocation

yet all is lost on the runway,
as the machine begins to taxi away,
brains go to panic mode,feet brace,
as the RHYMONSTER looks on at the human race!




people another visit to pune called for another 4 plane rides includin one between mumbai and pune lasting all of 19 minutes!!!! needless to say the rhyme says it all..
GREETINGS RHYMONSTER

we the people

we do trust in god dont we??
or believe in fate's quiet decree!

we walk long miles barefoot,lo behold!!!
for that one small moment to unfold.

we pray across barriers,hoping,waiting;
or in quiet yet profound voice we sing.

we help others in deed and need,
for the almighty says to shun wealth and greed.

we rever one as heavensent messiah ..emissary,
for we want desperately to see,what miracles wrought HE

for us no distinction between wood and stone
we idolize each, as it helps us our sins to atone!!

wish humanity would just try end suffering -a huge task,
across borders and castes--or is it a huge ask?
FOR WE THE PEOPLE


THIS IS DEDICATED TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE HELPED OUT IN THE TSUNAMI TRAGEDY AND TO THE MILLIONS MORE WHO CAN...(INCLUDING ME)....RHYMONSTER

this is me ok....see ya guys...love ya tooo
