Tagged with:       [Post New]posted on 21 Sep 2007 18:58:47 IST    
Hello people, I m back with yet another poem. Now the interesting thing about this poem is that nearly everyone who has read it has asked me in turn : I didn't get what happened at last. Maybe they weren't that bright.....But I m sure u guys will be able to make out what actually happens....its very easy, I will be waiting for ur comments regarding the same.....I mean u guys have to tell me what happens. Rate if u like the poem.
 

A BOY'S TALE

 
This is the story of a guy
Who never spoke a lie.
He topped tenth last
He was everyone's dear.
Such a fine, simple boy
Who never even demanded a toy.
 
           ***
 
A simple day it was
The teacher taught: Everything has a cause.

The last period was boring

He was waiting for the bell to ring.
With a smiling face he returned to his place
Not having a clue of what he would have to face.
A strange smell came as he entered the house
In his heart, a strange feeling aroused.
He kept his bag on the bed
And went to the kitchen to ask for a bread.
Not finding his mum in the kitchen was a strange thing
He went to the other room searching.
He opened the door and his eyes went red.
He found his mum murdered on the bed
His sister's body was lying on the floor
And his father had been killed beside the door.
Some dacoits had looted the place
He didn't even register a case.
 
         ***
 
One week later, he was in a cinema hall
The next day he was wandering in a mall.
He opened the door 'of his land'
With some CD's in his hand.
He went upstairs and switched on the TV
After sometime, he inserted a VCD.
He did not come to know when he slept
But mind it, he hadn't wept.
The other day, he returned home with a box of pastry
His other hand held a bottle of Pepsi.
All he had was the life of his
He spent the whole month like this.
 
          ***
 
Today, the house doesn't have a living soul anymore
As his blood also stains the floor.
Truly, everything has a cause
Such a fine simple guy he was.
 
 
P.S: I acknowledge that this poem carries a summat negative message.....I don't know how but this idea walked into my mind three years back and I cudnt help but convert the idea into a poem. I apologize if this poem has any negative impact on u.
Cheers..........Don't forget to comment and rate

the moral can be undersood by a positve approach:
we should not be like the person mentioned in the poem
That's IT!!!!!!!!

is it really the puzzle about a guy or its a comparison.the boy did not cry because the teacher told everything has a cause.i guess there is some thing in the last but one stanza couldnot find.
