NEW EXPERIENCE *Chander M. Bhat
	I was very ease at home Without any disturbance I was thrown out of my home Without my interference. Not talk of men even God Pertant to teach me a lesson Of no faults of mine I did bear those sufferings. Thus came a day I asked the God my faults HE in turn lowered his eyes By saying, I did make your life. Thus came the right answer I was stunt God indicated, all was for you That the situation was made For you to move. I moved with heavy heart Leaving all my past memories Thinking for my ways to survive Reached a barren land, Thorns all around. Scorching sun burnt my skin Passed the days in a long queue To get myself registered For maintaining my existence Loud came a voice Your identity is lost. Could not bear this Reached my abode A one room set In a new land Nights became restless. Who is here to hear me? Passed the hard days With only an idea To re-establish my band Roamed here and there To discover meadows And pastures new. Found myself in a wirlpool That took me to a deep trench Still thinking of my past Waxes and wanes just like a moon.

NEW EXPERIENCE

*Chander M. Bhat

I was very ease at home

Without any disturbance

I was thrown out of my home

Without my interference.

Not talk of men even God

Pertant to teach me a lesson

Of no faults of mine

I did bear those sufferings.

Thus came a day

I asked the God my faults

HE in turn lowered his eyes

By saying, I did make your life.

Thus came the right answer

I was stunt

God indicated, all was for you

That the situation was made

For you to move.

I moved with heavy heart

Leaving all my past memories

Thinking for my ways to survive

Reached a barren land,

Thorns all around.

Scorching sun burnt my skin

Passed the days in a long queue

To get myself registered

For maintaining my existence

Loud came a voice

Your identity is lost.

Could not bear this

Reached my abode

A one room set

In a new land

Nights became restless.

Who is here to hear me?

Passed the hard days

With only an idea

To re-establish my band

Roamed here and there

To discover meadows

And pastures new.

Found myself in a wirlpool

That took me to a deep trench

Still thinking of my past

Waxes and wanes just like a moon.
