Humors to muse

Humors to muse

At midnight a husband and a wife were quarrelling on the street,

A police man enquired to know the reason of their fight.

“Come with me to police station,

As per law of the land you will get a solution.”

They pleaded “This is our family quarrel,

nothing serious inviting police intervention and trial.”

The police man asked them to go inside their residence,

and to fight inside their house without making public nuisance.

To this they replied together,

“Do you want us to fight inside and break our furniture?”

Two men were running on a street,

as if they were preparing in a race to compete.

The man behind was asked the reason of the run,

“We wanted to share our worldly worries and tension,

To advise one another and to get our solution,

He took the whole day for consultation,

But when my turn came to tell my problems asking for his advice he is fleeing away,

I am after him for solution to keep my tensions at bay.”

The other man was caught by with much difficulty,

“With your friend why are you breaking the treaty?,”

He replied “He gave me solution which everybody knows,

All are bullshit and I have no time to spare to repeat the same to add to his woes.”

What a worldly man can advise on worldly worries,

Same problems, same tensions, for same cause since ages a man on this earth carries.

A proprietor of a company was in red with loss every year,

Once during annual closing “we are in profit “told his manager,

He ordered copies of balance sheet,

to send immediately to the share holders so that they know it.

Manager told “There is no ink,

If we purchase we will be in red, hence please rethink.”
