The year has come to a close.
To sum up my feelings I chose.


Anna Hazare and his 12+-day fast.
Kasab (in jail) still having a blast !
Kate Middleton and Prince William’s wedding –grand.
Viewed by the world, this happening in England.



Music, countless firecrackers, the sky did gleam.
When the World Cup was won; courtesy: the Indian Cricket Team.
The 10th anniversary of the unforgettable, dreadful 9/11.
So many great personalities found their way to heaven.



Lots of bickering later, the Lokpal Bill they tried to pass.
Spying everywhere, the media, hordes of wealth did amass.
Forced to watch Ra.One , tears were shed.
Our Page-3ers – many chose to wed.

Metallica’s India performance- bookings chock-a-bloc.
The concert just had all in for a rude shock.
MI4 – Indian locations Tom did cruise.
Saddening was extra tax on Booze.

Vijay Mallya’s Airline in the dumps.
2011 fashion was sporting baby bumps.
A nuclear disaster in Japan.
People lost many of their clan.

Kolaveri Di taking the world by storm.
Protests world-over seemed to be the norm.
A US –well planned mission, Osama bin Laden was killed.
Gadaffi overthrown –Libya and the world were thrilled.


Hit end had Steve Job’s clock.
Then, his biography all out of stock.
The end mourned by every Harry Potter lover.
Far away Earth-like planets they did discover.

2011- So much happened this year.
Sorrow, hope , happiness and fear.
Gained, some lost- people dear.
The world’s connected – so far yet so near.
We’re all now just awaiting 2012 here!!
