Pigs have wings

Twiggy lives in the leafy corner
Of a pink-flowered lawn.
He wished to fly
And fly till the dawn.

Twiggy the piggy was fat,
Eating and sleeping all day
Glancing at Biggie, his friend
Who lived a foot away!

Biggie was a sad piggy
Who failed to fly.
He is always sacred
And never does he try.

Every day Twiggy tried
Wishing to kiss the blue sky-
Believing he has wings
He was certain that he would fly!

On fine morning we woke up,
He found himself in the air.
Thinking that he is flying-
He sang lord's prayer.

His stomach chruning,
His head a lil' dizzy,
"Twiggy is flying" he shouted!
Biggie, but, was all tizzy!

"My friend is stupid" Biggie thought -
"Pigs never fly!
If pigs had wings,
Wouldn't I try!"

"Once I too tried" -
Said Biggie crying,
"But if you want life,
You have to be complying!"

Twiggy closed his eyes,
Enjoying up in the air.
Till he saw a man-
With an angry glare!

Flight crashed and hit hard,
Thrown in the back of the car.
Twiggy knew the strange pang
And he stared blankly afar!

Gorge

Oh the homeless, the permanence
And the voyager -
Splashed in the raging stream,
Where do you hide?
The loud screaming wind -
Be Gentle,
Summoning whom 
In this lonely infinite?
Oh the brimful river,
Trembling impatience,
Clouding the banks!
The dormant little drops
Thunder the sky aloud -
They are sparkling 
Gorgeous blue!
The homeless, the permanence 
Nor the voyager,
Neither there are, 
Stars in the nightly black!

Gift of Cheesecake by Uncle Failure

In a comprehensive manner I (purely out of my own personal experience) hereby list out the following benefits of failure -

1) The knowledge of what I cannot do

2) The knowledge of what others can which I can't

3) How far behind I am from the last person in the race that I can almost lead the next group

4) What I have been doing is not my best but much less than what I can still make out

5) I have started waking up at a decent time in the morning and work till a little late

6) At last I am sincere in life (ummm... yes I can say that) :)

7) People say I am losing weight (walah!!!)

8) At the rock bottom, I have nothing to lose, so I am super tension free :)

9) The already there bad habits are walking out of life.
    (....yeah...... I know.... but blogging is not a bad habit, come on!)

Finally)  Everyday I get to know how much more I could have done and have had a nice time now - but at the same time I would not have had the life's most precious benefits which I have just enumerated :)

Cheers!
