I monkey grabbed these photographs from a friend who clicked them while taking a walk at the premises.

Tactful at the monkey game, with a watchful eye on his domain

The boss he is always there, chalking strategies where

To commission his delegates and recruit, to those trees an eyesore with laden fruit.

He sends his regiments all around, to pull down branches, ravage the ground;

With the onus of responsibilities on his shoulder, how to carry on with projects of plunder.

Blossoms over the night that bloom, daylight rides them to their doom

The garden droops a groaning green, inundated a spectacle alien.

They neither have to cook nor serve, for they operate with pluck and verve.

Save for the herbs I’m blessed they spare, things insignificant they declare.

    very interesting poem about monkeys!
    Don’t go near them. Recently my friend’s hubby, while jogging in the park, saw some monkeys and while trying to run away from their chase, fell down and injured the legs.

    back to visit the cheeky monkeys! Are you back? how was your trip?

  • RAJEEV BHARGAVA on Feb 4, 2010

    you write so beautifully that it does full justice to these magnificent snaps. i love the first one where all the monkeys are feasting in the greenery. the second one is a winner too where the monkey is seated so comfortably, with his long tail swooping down. they are marvellous, and sacred, beings. beautifully penned and scripted. i love this poem very much. thanks very much for sharing it.
