Shut Up or Shut Down

 'The tale of two cities' has been heard by all,
Let's overhear a friend convincing other on a call :


The INTJ effect bonded us well,
And, we enjoyed the fun filled spell;
The potter's wheel was set in motion,
and the clay was fired with a 'friendship notion'.

The frequency was well matched,
The tuning was properly set;
Stories were shared,
Thoughts were paired,
Our discussions made people around,
behave like hearing impaired.

We laughed at foolishness of others,
And made it a point to praise our deeds,
We moved slowly to accommodate talking,
When others were busy comparing their speeds.

My PJs were incomplete,
till it drove you to apex of annoyance;
And you countered it well with 'philosophical theories',
that became a trademark of your flamboyance !

As the things started to settle,
An 'over reactive response' ruined the potter's art,
'Dosti' was put on stakes,
And, the warmth lost it's part.
------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately,
Their ego weighed over value of their friendship,
Certainly neither of them realised the importance of keeping a gem-ship

How to mend the relationship,
They know it pretty well,
But both of them are waiting ,
for other to ring the bell !!!

Train to Delhi

I was busy completing my work sheet,

Not knowing that, a girl was fighting for a seat;

After getting down from my cozy zone,

I realized that she’s someone I have lately known.

She's a character from a wedding story,

of which I was also a part;

and the destiny brought us together again,

On board the same railways cart.

The happiness was evident on her face,

As she managed to get leave for next 15days;

But, the hunt for a seat wasn’t over yet,

And the impatience persisted till the things were set.

My boring journey became a fun affair,

We soon knew that we had a lot to share.

We munched on ‘Taka-tak’ as a means to survive,

The long neglected 'Cube' by us was then brought back to life.

Soon, I was facing a big challenge,

To solve mismatched blocks of the Rubik's cube,

And, before I could express my helplessness,

A written tip was passed, leaving me confused.

I blindly followed the rules mentioned on the chit,

and I was able to arrange the blocks in a perfect fit.

Later, I shared my experience of decoding 2048 game,

But, compared to 'the rubik's cube', it appeared lame.

  

All-in-all, the journey was fun,

and urged me to write (poem) another one....;)
