Clumsy

Also written quite long back.

Flying, flying
looking around.
Ah! there it is!
The perfect place.
Down I go,
Dive! DIVE!
Tree! Too Close!
Trim wings, SWERVE!!
I'm through, I'm safe!
Must remember this next time.....
Down again,
to land now.
Circle, spiral
tighter now.
Wings flare,
air brake!
Skimming the sand
slowing down.
Feet out,
all ready.........oooh!
BUMP! CRASH! RATTLE!
gravel, stones, ROCKS!!
................................
I think I broke my tail.

Common sense

this is one of my older works. forgive the rambling structure, but i think it makes a fairly humorous read.

It was while traveling in the train
I got a chance to use my brain
Small it is, that I concede
even so, I say, take heed
of what I say shall happen whence
you think too much of common sense.
Where has common sense got us?
Why do we make such a fuss
of sticking to reality
and senseless practicality?
Think sometimes with the heart, I say.
Let it take you far away
from concrete jungles thick and dense.
The cages wrought by common sense.
Using it just makes us see,
with less of it how free are we.
For once, just do what u feel is best
and give that common sense a rest.
