I read it, this one on Apne is desh
was good,
out it stood
so patriotic
unchaotic
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
Was it Ashu, Asho or even Ashi
our very own veteran writer
or Nisha, Nachi or any one brighter
of a girl, am unsure
though they aren't in courage poor
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
I'm not the one who'd refrain
from giving my author poll
done it each time with no gall
but a strange fear held me still
suddenly lost my skill
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
Thought of what happened
to the two in Mumbai
as in the newspapers lay
made me wary
'twas so scary
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
Having two kids
wife of one hubby
if they catch me
put me in jail
heavy sum to be out on bail
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
Am dying to know
about who in fact wrote it
curiosity's throwing a fit
my hands itch
to click the switch
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
Please, please someone tell me
that too double quick
I think am getting sick
but though word fails to speak
in my heart tis 'speechless'
I liked it but couldn't say
because I wasn't brave yesterday.
