Manohar Bhatia ________ "Change"_________
Change is the change
of identity on facebook,
where you are only on cookbook!
Change is the difference
of doing business in East than West
where crony capitalism is best!
Change is the currency
of notes,bills, coins,
where human capital also joins!
Change is the attitude
of people towards sexuality
where love can be a casuality!
Change is a human nature
for man & woman in relationship
where each struggles for partnership!
Change is the transformation
of parties in hues of politics
where power of money is game of ethics!
Change is the merging
a town of two border states
where upmanship was at stake!
Change is the struggle
for freedom from orthodoxy
where man is buried in methodology!
Change is a change of rule
from one nation to another
where greed and power gather!
Change is a shift
in climate from hot or cold
where Mother Nature acts bold!
Change is a plan
for IPL team for surprise win
where everyone will grin!
Change is a twist
of story in fiction novel
where readers would marvel!
Change is in the thinking
of person from poverty to affluence
where discomfort & comfort confluence!
Change is a change
from one change to another change
where only change is name of change!

Apr 19, 2010 3:24 am Monday Poem:::::::::::::::::: "What Is this Life..............?" #
Manohar Bhatia What is this life full of trouble
all the time for a rumble
but no time for a quiet grumble?
What is this life full of tension
all the time for an apprehension
but no time for an introspection?
What is this life full of discussion
all the time for a confrontation
but no time for an innovation?
What is life full of cocophony
all the time for blasphemy
but no time for hegemony?
What is life full of sadness
all the time for total madness
but no time for little goodness?
What is life full of doomsday
all the time for a death-day
but no time for an eventful day?
What is this life full of richness
all the time for deadly bitchiness
but no time for lovable playfullness?

Apr 12, 2010 8:14 am Monday Poem::::::::::: "The City In Siege." #
Manohar Bhatia Members,
I just saw a photo of this city and this poem came to me::::::::::
"The City In Siege."
This city in the range
is as dangerous a place
as a badge on his shirt
the Sheriff is doing his duty
to wipe out out-laws from ghost town.
Mid-night calm is
as sinister as a dawn
all looking quiet
except the barks of dogs.
High noon on the near-by river
looks suicidal in a summer
for youngsters wanting to swim
invited by the river grim.
A spring evening
looks full of promise
honey-bees collect pollens
buzzing to ferilize in stems.
In the bar after office-hours
the suspence is scary
No soul in sight
only a bartender for a cigarette
to light for a brave soul.
The dusty road
is nostalgic for me
where me and my beloved
were sick with passionate love.
Dons in this fearsome city
are happy-go-lucky
as a child of innocense
giving an endearing smile.
Alas! The Sheriff looks helpless!

Actually,lots of old cowboys movies had the same setting of an old town in the mid-fifties,where constant raidng by the out-laws was the order of the day.The gun battle between out-laws and the Sheriff was an every day affair.I also remember of a beautiful horse-carriage driven by a faithful bearded old man,important passengers being a stunningly pretty rich lady and his escort and maybe laoded with a trunk of gold!
This one is from the movie::::"Gun Fight At The O.K. Corral" ...I think It was Burt Lancaster and......other famous actor..I think Clint Eastwood.

Monday Poem::::::::::::::::::: "Why Switch Off Lights?" Views: 35
Mar 29, 2010 6:57 am Monday Poem::::::::::::::::::: "Why Switch Off Lights?" #
Manohar Bhatia Members,
Since it was an Earth Hour on 26th March,2010,requesting everyone to switch off power from 7.30p.m to 8.30p.m.I thought I will try out a poem::::::::::::::
"Why Switch Off Lights?"
Why switch off lights today?
beacause greed for 'power'is growing
to cater to man's unsatiable thirst
for progress in building new apartments
but succeeding in only in creating unbalanced society
where poor,downtrodden,suffer to eat food
left by noveau rich,celebs,others
Remember,its an Earth Hour to-day!
Why switch off lights lights to-day?
So that all gambling dens close
that may lead to rape,murder,extortion,
where the honest get caught
in cross-fire between 'A'& 'B' company
to be accidently bumped off in this encounter
for their kith & kin to mourns their deaths
Remember,its an Earth Hour to-day!
Why switch off lights to-day?
so that drinking bars have a dry day
alerting regular drinkers to face a test
and compulsive drinkers a forced rest
Also,lady tipplers a moment to ponder
to set their houses & children in order
and release them from this deadly habit
Remember,its an Earth Hour to-day!
Why switch off lights to-day?
so that we save enough power
for the have nots to see a ray of light
in their dwellings not seen for decades
and make them to feel humans too
to seek their trust,blessings,smiles,
which they have never experienced before.
Remember,its an Earth Hour to-day!
Why switch off lights to-day?
so that peace prevails in one hour
for everyone to enjoy some unforgetful moments
of hearing birds humming in the trees,
honey-bees merrily buzzing amongst flowers,
the pleasant sound of cool wind whistling,
allowing tiny waves splash delecately on beach front,
Remember,its an Earth Hour to-day!

F.O.R.M. Poem::::::: Crapsey Cinquain.
F.O.R.M.- The Crapsey Cinquain Views: 39
Mar 30, 2010 8:17 pm F.O.R.M.- The Crapsey Cinquain #
Jack Huber Crapsey Cinquain
A cinquain can refer to any five-line poem with a set pattern or syllable count. Adelaide Crapsey, however, made the cinquain her own. Born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1878, at the turn of the century she was class poet at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie. Before her death of tuberculosis, her interest in haiku and tanka led her to develop her own cinquain patterns, as well as a new form of "doublet," a couplet that utilized two rhyming lines of ten syllables each. Much of Adelaide's work was published posthumously and it was Carl Sandburg's poem, "Adelaide Crapsey," that re-established her and her art form in popular culture.
Without rhyming, the Crapsey cinquain was most often written in iambic meter ("duh-DUM") and had a set syllable pattern. Its 22 syllables were arranged in lines of 2,4,6,8 and 2 syllables, respectively, for lines one through five.
Crapsey cinquains are the most popular but variations do exist. A “reverse cinquain” has a syllable pattern of 2-8-6-4-2 and a “mirror cinquain” pairs the Crapsey or standard cinquain with the reverse. Combining the two "mirror cinquain" stanzas and eliminating one of the two-syllable lines in the middle creates a nine-line “butterfly cinquain.” Link five stanzas and you have a “crown cinquain.” There seems to be no shortage of variations.
Examples:
Lightning
Its flash,
a brilliant test
of nighttime's secrecy,
exposes for an instant, then
escapes.
Cardinal
Red bird,
your glorious
plumage is radiant,
as your male ego is displayed
for her.

Jack Huber Manohar, Dalip and Maya, all are splendid examples of Crapsey cinquains, which now make you Crapsey poets...
Maya, your syllable counts are correct, but you might want to change "buck" to "bucks" (a million bucks).
Good job!

Mar 30, 2010 8:17 pm F.O.R.M.- The Crapsey Cinquain #
Jack Huber Crapsey Cinquain
A cinquain can refer to any five-line poem with a set pattern or syllable count. Adelaide Crapsey, however, made the cinquain her own. Born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1878, at the turn of the century she was class poet at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie. Before her death of tuberculosis, her interest in haiku and tanka led her to develop her own cinquain patterns, as well as a new form of "doublet," a couplet that utilized two rhyming lines of ten syllables each. Much of Adelaide's work was published posthumously and it was Carl Sandburg's poem, "Adelaide Crapsey," that re-established her and her art form in popular culture.
Without rhyming, the Crapsey cinquain was most often written in iambic meter ("duh-DUM") and had a set syllable pattern. Its 22 syllables were arranged in lines of 2,4,6,8 and 2 syllables, respectively, for lines one through five.
Crapsey cinquains are the most popular but variations do exist. A “reverse cinquain” has a syllable pattern of 2-8-6-4-2 and a “mirror cinquain” pairs the Crapsey or standard cinquain with the reverse. Combining the two "mirror cinquain" stanzas and eliminating one of the two-syllable lines in the middle creates a nine-line “butterfly cinquain.” Link five stanzas and you have a “crown cinquain.” There seems to be no shortage of variations.
Examples:
Lightning
Its flash,
a brilliant test
of nighttime's secrecy,
exposes for an instant, then
escapes.
Cardinal
Red bird,
your glorious
plumage is radiant,
as your male ego is displayed
for her.

"Music That 'Cures' Deafness"_______ABNA Reviews
Feedback
Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Reviews
ABNA Expert Reviewer
What is the strongest aspect of this excerpt?
This writer has a curious style – at once childish and yet descriptive. Since it is coming from another culture, I came to appreciate the choppiness of the prose after a few paragraphs. The allegories were fun.
What aspect needs the most work?
Overall, I found the language to be perhaps a bit TOO simple and childish, and feel the author needs to revisit their story for some editing and tightening up of the story without losing any of the essential English-as-a-second-language flavor.
What is your overall opinion of this excerpt?
I found myself surprised that I liked it and found the story engaging. The author writes in a kind of pidgin English that is easy to understand and also very charming.
ABNA Expert Reviewer
What is the strongest aspect of this excerpt?
The story takes place in an unfamiliar environment, the most impoverished province in India (Uttar Pradesh). This draws the reader in, because the reader will be interested in strange cultural practices and strange traditions.
What aspect needs the most work?
The narrative reads: "Brahmin food is pure vegetarian and varied. There is Dal(pulses), Kadhi,(a kind of soup) Chappatis,(Bread)" I recommend that each of these foods be expanded to an entire paragraph. The writer could desribe the fragrance and color and method of preparation (boiling for three hours, baking for ten minutes) for each of these foods. By not pausing to describe the foods, the author has missed an opportunity for providing interesting writing. Also, when we read the character "Suryanavshi," I suggest that the author devote a sentence or two describing how to pronounce this name, and to describe alternate pronunciations, and to describing similar names in India. By not pausing to focus on this name, or on the origin of this name, the author has lost an opportunity for providing some interesting writing.
What is your overall opinion of this excerpt?
This story is refreshing among most of the samples provided by Amazon.com, in that it is easy to understand what is going on, despite the unfamiliar environment of the present story (a remote province in India). In other words, in most of the stories provided by Amazon.com, the authors clutter up the narratives of ordinary, prosaic events, by plunging into details about the weather, or about exaggerated emotions, or about irrelevant things, like traffic. But the present story, about India, does NOT suffer from these problems. Although the prose does seem to be written by an amateur-author, the author writes clearly and it is easy for the reader to see that a genuine story is being developed. I would have liked the author to have added more bizarre customs from India, for example (this is my own made-up example), animal sacrifice. I know, for example, that 150 years ago in India they had human sacrifice in a practice called, "Satti." Therefore, I would expect some bizarre practices to still be in practice in India, and I would have liked to have seen them integrated into this story///////////////////(End of Review)
Manohar Bhatia comments on the reviews:::::;
I do appreciate ABNA reviewers.The first reviewer said that he is surprised at my childish writing and yet likes reading my excerpt.He is impressed by the overall opinion of the excerpt and found the story engaging......I found I have scored here.Although I write pidgin English, but still he found it very charming.
The second reviewer says that although the story is set in the most improvished province of India(Uttar Pradesh),still this reviewer feels will draw the reader in ,so that he can know strange cultural practices and traditions.Overall,he found the story refreshing among other samples sent on amazon.com

You are such a talented and truly magnificent woman, I'm so lucky to be considered among your friends. (Wish we lived closer so we could rage around the town together a bit!) What o what would they do with the two of us loose?

Congratulations on your graduation and your grades, now you can come back to the fold....heh heh heh...oh my devious mind is aswirl...
Let me know when you plan to launch your new radio show and we can have a ball, busting myths about writing, and woes.
BTW, I may need some help setting up MY new BTR show, so when you get a minute next week, let's talk.
Yours in friendship and folly,

Marsha Walker Hi everyone,
School is done and I now have a masters in human services as well as being a board certified human services professional. Of course I am very pleased to announce that I did it with a 3.97 GPA. I am in the process of getting my radio shows set us and then I will rejoin you as before.
I have had some changes in my life and as they say when one door closes another one opens and in my case there was very handsome guy with the most incredible blue eyes standing in that door.
SpeciaL thanks to Lady Diane for all the love and support.
I hope things are good in your worlds and anyone who is interested in contacting me please feel free to do so at
emybaker@yahoo.com
Take care and see you soon!
Marsha

Tim,
please let us all know the URL of your blog so we can go and learn more on the positive effects of Renewable Energy on the environment! And don't forget to post the blog (or at least some part of it) every Thursday on Susan Graves' Green Grove Thursday thread. (Thanks for bringing Tim on board Susan!)
I'm excited about our upcoming Skype interview and will contact you shortly to get the time, day and date so I can let everyone know when we'll be "on the air"!
A hearty welcome from the gang here at WPWU,
Diane T. and furfamily
Energetically Yours, Diane Tegarden

Dearest Lady M,
I'm just busting at the seams I'm so proud of your fantastic accomplishments, despite your personal injury (both to heart and back).
You are such a talented and truly magnificent woman, I'm so lucky to be considered among your friends. (Wish we lived closer so we could rage around the town together a bit!) What o what would they do with the two of us loose?
;>
Congratulations on your graduation and your grades, now you can come back to the fold....heh heh heh...oh my devious mind is aswirl...
Let me know when you plan to launch your new radio show and we can have a ball, busting myths about writing, and woes.
BTW, I may need some help setting up MY new BTR show, so when you get a minute next week, let's talk.
Yours in friendship and folly,
Diane T. and furfamily
Energetically Yours, Diane Tegarden
