Battered but safely arrived, in London home
After a gruesome twenty three hour, long
Down with Jet lag, incredibly awesome
My main excuse for the delay in writing
Britain is rapidly turning from bad to worse
Statesmanship in politics, here too gone
Noble thoughts, putting interests of countries,
Before everything else, now is a piper’s dream
Only pleasantness I can report from here, if any
Bees on blossoms create a delightful bio-phony
Every creeper and twig of trees and bushes
Flowers in red, pink and blue with blushing smiles
Butterflies, flicker their multi colour soft wings
Similar to flashing eye lashes of Geisha girls
Having said goodbye to their winter blues,
Clad in summer dresses, do dance tiny tots
Young birds, just learning to fly out of nests,
Under watchful vigil of parents, beaming eyes
Sweetest melodies the young beaks do impart
Heavenly lullabies for human babies in cradles
Long day hours and pure white radiant sun rays
Propel winter chills to hide in shame
Spring is bevelling to long summer days
Imparting happiness as smiles on every face

My dear Friends,
Many thanks for all your fab, encouraging words
Faced with aches, pains & fleeting memory losses
As a distraction I started to focus on beautiful things
Mother nature, inspires me providing fine examples
The beauty and the privilege of being part of the 64 batch
Is the enthusiastic encouragement my friends do provide
Though all of you lavishly praise my poetic compositions
Skills grew, nourished by my batch mates helpful remarks
