Oh dear, there are many things that makes the news,

The spicy Page-3 gossip or someone’s highly unpalatable views.

Rest assured, here is all the stuff that you have unknowingly missed,

Which I try to capture in a lyrical gist.

A Manmohic Smile has come to play,

At the Dalal Street and on Ms. Gandhi’s face.

Injected with health (F.I.I!), rupee, reinvigorated, became a little strong,

Due to the slew of economic measures that took too long (to come).

Rap, Rap goes the hammer on the anvil,

“Auction not the only option”- is the Supreme Court’s will.

“If voted to power, we will scrap F.D.I.”,

Reiterates solemn B.J.P., as it considers Multinationals to be greedy and sly.

N.C.P. in turmoil, Ajit Pawar says ‘bye, bye’,

While Mamata sans affection, glares at Congress, her order-defying child.

Poachers are back, hunting malnutritioned tigers in the jungles,

Which are too few and far between that it is mandatory for the them to mingle.

People still cower in fear as Kundankulam gets set to say “boo”,

Arianespace to soon launch GSAT 10, I.S.R.O. says Yu-hoo!!

J.K. Rowling is back and that too with a bang,

It’s ‘The Casual Vacancy’- that will hit the stands.

Well, I guess that’s enough for today,

You know, it’s sort of tough to make words nearly rhyme with rest of the hay.

I will dish out further news and updates in style and aplomb,

For that you keep reading http://www.iamalienman.wordpress.com.
