Kids Halloween Party#Humor#Limerick

Captain America was searching for his shield all over the place.

Wonder woman had chocolate smeared all over her face.

Superman needed a diaper change.

Spiderman needed some pocket change.

While I was helping these adorable superheroes, Batman tugged my sleeve asking “Can you please tie my shoe lace?”

Fall in the park#Humor#Limerick

We went for a stroll in the park to enjoy fall

Out of nowhere came a speeding ball

I stooped down and yelled ‘Duck!’

He looked around searching for a duck.

Alas! I couldn’t stop his fall.

The speciality of the above limerick is it uses homonyms . (‘duck’ and ‘fall’) . Homonyms are words with multiple meanings.

Unfulfilled love

 

After 20 years, I met him unexpectedly.

For a fleeting moment
We gazed at each other
trying to fathom the lost love.
Our eyes exchanged countless questions.

American Born Confused Indian#Limerick

To wear a long skirt that stays or to flaunt a mini skirt that sways

To eat homemade rice or to get restaurant takeaways

To speak in English or to falter in mother tongue

Unable to decide, between two cultures, she hung

This ‘American Born Confused Desi’ is bewildered always.

Heaven on Earth

It looked as if it was earth’s birthday;

The sky was showering white snow flowers.

A cold crime

The trees were a victim of the heavy snow;

The clouds sneaked out of the crime scene;

The sun agreed to alibi the clouds by shining brightly than ever.

Written in response to poetry 101 rehab : seasonal haiku

 

 

Farewell or a new beginning?

As I stand teary -eyed waving at you,

It strikes me that I had betrayed myself all these days.

Shed your mask, dear!

 

Who are you, my dear?

I want to see the man behind the mask.

I want to know the real you.

Beloved :Being loved

 

She thought love was holding hands and walking towards the sunset.

She thought love was uploading romantic pictures on facebook.

She thought love was a public display of affection.
