Bragging Modesty (by Samima)

Why boast modesty? Wasn't handpicked

Bragging seems silly, when was obligation strict.

Posing wise on patterns borrowed by others

Followed a code & custom, or advise by mothers.

Justifying tartness, when Grapes felt sour

Choice will be different, when given some power.

Sour now bad and 'the grapes weren’t mine'

Go with flock, is their new punch line.

Decency is out; it’s Vanity that’s in

Advance WE are, hold up the chin.

(Dear!) Modesty is a virtue but its flaunting isn’t smart

Simple or Not, be honest with all heart.

Bluebird

There is a bluebird, sitting in my yard

Singing so gracefully, gives a bright start;

Your fine prsesnce in summers and spring

Comely blue plumage, on a branch u cling.

Its said; u carry sky on back,

How  a tiny nester can so much take

Its human boastings, I 've always found

Playing Ace, and  fake braggings around

But dear bluebird, you so humble

Carrying  sky , yet never mumble.

Sung equally for King and ordinary

Open Sky, alike and same for evrybody;

Why can’t we find such beautiful beings

Status and ranks these mortals seeing.

So dear bluebird! hurry back after winter

Hope it  proves to be a sprinter,

My query would be the secret for humility

coz Vanity and Pride is a virtue in  Nobility.
