    A new joinee was before
    His boss for the first meeting.
    Nervous he was so to the core,
    His fingers were mildly shaking.

    "Relax fella!", said the boss.
    That made him even worse.
    After what seemed an eternal pause,
    His boss talked. His voice was hoarse.

    You are free to ask questions
    Anytime while I am speaking!
    I don't like those who say nothing.
    Got it?", his voice was now booming.

    "I like you to even challenge me
    And start asking 'What if?'.
    You'll get quick answers from me
    For I would have thought of

    Those scenario too even before
    Presenting them to others you see!
    Being so thoughtful, I therefore
    Expect you all to be good to me.

    I don't want to use the word 'If'
    Followed by the word 'Only', later
    During your appraisal. Is that enough?
    Now go! Start your day better!"

    There is no need to bestow
    A knighthood to you, my friend!
    You are the one with a gusto
    Unparallel and a will thats bent,

    Upon making others happier.
    Thats fine with all of us.
    Since your goal is loftier,
    I don't even want to mess.


    :) Thanks Quebec. -rgs

    Dear RGS,

    You are our in-house poet and that will be accepted by every IL'ite here, I know!

    This poem was nominated to FP of the month by Quebec and congratulations are due!:thumbsup

    I read the smooth flowing verses and read it again to really absorb and enjoy it! You say a lot without saying much! What one reads between the lines is much more than what one actually reads! This is a true winner. You are getting better at it, I must add!

    L, Kamla

    Thanks Kamla Madam, for your lavish praise. It was indeed a surprise for me to know that Quebec nominated this. And now the joy is doubled. Thanks again. -rgs

    Good one, Boss :)
    ---

    I feel drowsy
    But I couldn't sleep,
    not even close my eyes
    feel like, watching your face
    is all that I living for

    I could hear
    The questions you asking me
    I have my answers,
    The honest ones
    yet I hold them

    The way you look into my eyes
    The way you arc up your brows
    I wish:
    This should be the last moment of my life

    You may wonder
    Why I should post this in FB
    But never said you at face
    You may also thinking
    Why I didn't accept your friend request here

    Here is the reason:
    Boss, let me at least express myself here
    The right diplomatically forbidden to me
    In front of all others
    At our office board room

    That was a good one Strangerrr. And yes, it sounded as a good response to my version above. A bit more interesting! - I should add. Thanks buddy. -rgs
