Padmaja Iyengar Poems

I wonder why folks tend to be slack,
When it comes to posting a feedback
On the works that they read with such relish -
Not knowing, their feedback’s what I cherish.
...

This garrulous lady named Lou
Always managed somehow,
To put her foot in the mouth,
That slid her reputation south.
...

He was a tourist guide much sought after;
His wit and humour evoked much laughter.

Foreign tourists were often referred to him,
...

Words....

Sometimes they gush
Sometimes they rush
...

Trust deficit brings great strife
As it slowly eats away one’s life
Loss of faith, betrayal of trust
Bring extreme grief and disgust.
...

Go ahead, tread the trodden path,
But please don’t let out your wrath
On those that make their own road,
Because they did not yours abode.

On Feedback...

I wonder why folks tend to be slack,
When it comes to posting a feedback
On the works that they read with such relish -
Not knowing, their feedback’s what I cherish.

Anyway, I write for my own pleasure
Without any expectation or pressure.
If any one responds - fine!
Else, the joy of writing's all mine!

However, a feedback helps in knowing
The direction in which I am going –
Whether the reader is able to connect
With what my mind’s trying to reflect…

So, if you’re reading this,
Then please don’t miss
Posting your feedback.
I don’t mind taking flak…
