Make it compulsory



Politicians all over the world bank on the same
Catch the nerves of people and earn the fame
 Loot the national wealth and rule the scene
 Such unique creature can never be found anywhere or can be seen

 Why to go in for distant land to search such wonderful animal ?
 He is not season bird but make his presence known on arrival
 He is powerful, holds presence of mind and speak
 We too are all shameless to show him all our weaknesses

 What will he perform after reaching on stage?
 Advise us on all matters and preach how to manage
 He has to gain everything and nothing to loose
 As we always follow him and choose as leader too

 He can fool everybody with legal immunity
 We have made him powerful and mighty
 He can fiddle with legal system and get Scot free
 As he has enough of time to pluck the fruits from the tree

 Judiciary, police and agents close their eyes
 No one questions about their integrity and never ask why
 This all has made  them to act selfishly and above law
 The same situation should not go on or be allowed

 The situation is likely to worsen one day
 No one can save us from being pushed away
 Even mighty ruler also has to fall on ground sometime
That day will be final in his life time

 People are fed up with corruption
 The cases are reported with daily news editions
 Whole country is put into shame by their acts
 Yet they  cleverly  pass on the blame and react

 Some leaders are let loose to speak
With official patronage to leak
Some of the information to misguide the people
And sow the seeds if dissension to avoid trouble

How come country can bear such politicians?
Why can not be they booked and brought to the scene?
Why can not they be made accountable to judiciary?
The need is felt and there is popular voice to make it compulsory

I hold technical qualification like Diploma in Radio/engineering .I have done English and Hindi stenography as well. I had mastered the art in Morse telephony too. I am associated with several welfare organizations and served long time as Union leader too. I am at present working as hobby writer. I write poems on various subjects and invite suggestions from all the quarters. I have written one memoir named “As I see it” and ready for publication. One interesting part of writing I would love to share with all my reader friends. I am not sure weather it may be the same case with all as I do not want to be caught in any controversy. When I sit on my personal computer, there is absolutely no thought in mind as to what is to be picked up as thought and written. These all things I leave it to the discretion of almighty to fill my mind with relevant ideas. So far I have been graced by Him and as result able to compose about 4000 poems. I have be awarded with 4 achievement award from the www.ezinearticles.com for successfully meeting with their standard.
