For a Toss!

Once again the prayers go unanswered
Once again the efforts in vain
Trying to nurture the loved ones
But the life's storm brings no gain

For the nth time building its nest
The white dove finally rests
Once again the rains splurge upon it
Once again their struggle goes for a toss!

The metamorphosis of a butterfly
From caterpillar to a colorful creature
Once again it turns into a spiritual symbol
Once again its beauty goes for a toss!

Making a wish from the falling star
The little girl prays from a far
Once again a star dies for another star
Once again another life goes for a toss!

Pretty dress and a glass of wine
Beautiful sunset at the sea shore dine
She dreams of such a perfect evening
But Once again her dreams stumble across
Once again her love went for a toss!

Little Miss Puppet

Dismantling and Re-arranging
Something keeps her encouraging
Trying for the best desirable results
To each part of her soul she consults
Dreams, goals, wishes
Filling the gap among these bridges
Correcting all her glitches
Overcoming life's luck bound ridges
She keeps her constant moves
In her own rhythm she grooves
Making sure to mould at its best
Letting fate decide the rest
Suddenly she realized
With the sounds of claps and trumpet
That she is just a Little Miss Puppet
