Wait and watch the different ways
In which the plants sway
When stare can no longer be still
I return to my room so little
Greetings by a question that goes:-
"Where were you"?
"where did you stay"?

My friends had problems to share
Was down with despair
Took time to talk on telecom
When her problems solved , a solution evolved
I turn and a question uncurls....
Whom did you speak to?
What did she say?

I went to meet my puppy pug
Barking in bewilderment
Restless she was in that confinement
When she had been consoled
Another question darts
What did you do?
Why do you waste your time

All these what,how,when,where,why
Why do I have to reply
OF course! elders have a right to ask
Govern all our tasks
Worried about my studies they are
My exams are not far

But one question at last i will ask
"IS it a crime"?
"IF by myself I spend some time?"
"Why is it waste?'
"If I do something of my taste?"

Favorite Quote:
"Everything is okay in the end,
if its not okay it's not the end."
"Be who you are and say how you feel because if someone matters they dont mind and if someone minds they dont matter"
"If God brings you to it he will bring you through it!"

I really liked it overall but i think in general it could have flowed a little better. Also reading it out loud with commas and periods would help, often times adding some more commas and periods can completely change how a reader interprets the poem.
