No Pen Likes Doggerels To Pen Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

If asked, a log of wood likes to look good—
All timbers feel no lesser than a teak,
Even a brick from kiln's keen to show trick
Given a master mason's classy mood;
Every flower aspires to flaunt fragrance,
And still looking good which it always would,
Or get picked for a rare floral romance
In a bouquet— not fade in lonely wood;
And no shrubs would like to get pulled as weed,
No bird likes to be Dodo not to fly,
And every dog to boast of a rare breed,
All reputations like to reach sky high.

So too no pen a paltry piece to pen,
But a poem that would tall praises span.
