As the year comes to an end
you look back, over the bend
this year had its ups and downs u say...
so let us travel back, day by day...It was the
year...
when elections sprang up many a surprise
and the BJP modernization, had to pay a heavy price
when Bush survived a very close call...
and everyone thought, Kerry had it all.
When Indian cricket started on a high..
giving hopes of touching the sky...
but halfway through, it lost its grip...
and the Aussies gave us an ass-whip.
When the Olympics wasn't played in the right
and dopes and drugs took away the limelight
the Indian tally has a lone czar...
bashing all hopes of winning a bagful of stars.
Family feuds was the order of the day...
when Birlas and Ambanis... just lost their way.
wills and ownerships were discussed more than the stocks...
leaving the whole nation in a state of shock.
When sex and sleaze ruled Bollywood...
and the indian bahu came out of her hood...
when Mallika changed Bollywoods face...
thinking its enough to wear just the lace.
When SRK again gave hits galore...
and the fans yelled once more once more... |
when the finance minister said Main Hoon Naa in his
budget quote...
you knew it was an SRK overdose.When Oracle finally
managed the Peolesoft takenover
and Veritas fell to Symantecs power...
mergers and takeovers were in the news...
and shutdowns and layoffs were heard far and few.
Everyone got a 1GB space...
when Google pulled out the Gmail ace...
Microsoft entered the search engine list...
and decided to contest Google... with a clenched fist.
When innocents died in the Iraq war...
but Saddam was captured by the US corps...
everyone felt, Bush did the wrong thing...
but the war made him again the US king.
When the year ended on a sombre note...
thousands drowning in the Tsunami boat...
killer waves wrecked havoc, in just two hours...
everything was sweeped by the sea powers.
and as the year passes its way...
it has been a pretty good year... u say
a year that from tommorow would be history...
leaving behind so many unsolved mysteries.
So, let's welcome the new year with a smile...
as we have to travel some miles...
a year that WAS... a motley...
a year that awaits... a Potpourri.
