An incomplete poem I started writing long time back. It's about an office I worked in...
It was not a long time ago,
That I got an opportunity
To add my spirit of usefulness
And contribute toward an exercise in quality.
There exists a Gothic building,
That stands like a figure imposing;
To know more about this den,
Let's start meeting its merry men.
Guarding the door is a sentry gentle,
He neither smokes, nor chews beetle.
But he has got quite a curiosity,
And asks questions with feverish tenacity.
If you want to get through the gate,
Better come early, or you'll surely be late.
After climbing up the stairs few,
You are greeted with a solemn view.
With computers black, people sit in rows,
They work with perpetually quizzed eyebrows.
Work is not the reason for this gloom,
It's just that on the right is the boss' room!
It would not be safe to talk about
Some of these merry men,
Should they come to know of this,
They'll surely knock out my brain!
So let's go only to the harmless men,
They are nice, they are timid, they are sane.

@Ma'am: Thank you!
@Rupsa: Not scared exactly. I was working with this company when I wrote it. And it's not right to talk publicly about what happens inside closed doors. I wanted to write a light-hearted one...
LOL!! Is that Gothic building standing near a metro station by any chance??
@Nandini: No! This was written a year ago. More than that, in fact... I was not here then!
