Wah kasto thiyo yo convention


Byastha jindagi bata chahari payejasto
America bhitra Nepal bhayejasto
Kabita gosthi pustak bimochan
Khelkood bhet Momo ra rocking Sharks club

Nepal day ma surubhayo aupacharik tawar le
Inauguration ma bhanyo panditji le
Hami hindu bhaneko mane ke ho bhanera
Shri ganesh aaya nama, sabai dharma le binayak kai naam japcha re

Hamro chinha rakhyo espaali
Kathor hudai gayeko post 911 america ma
Dhanya chan DC Nepali samaj
Yuwa haroo le pare yo safal

Sorha wata bartachar bishaya sansargit
Immigration dekhi peace corp ani american politics
Girls trafficking ra helping Nepal from abroad
Hapta din ko bhayeko bhaye sabai ma jaanthe ma

Chalirahethyo film festival, 6 wata movie
Kaha po jaane, way too many choices
Football basketball ko pratisparda
Bar ta sabai bela crowded nai thiyo

Sidhyayo bar ko raksi haami neplali le
Amazing audio visual with large 2 large screens
Cultural program maa, wah pragati garechan
We have come of age, finally Nepali presentation ma

Bus tour to DC
Shandaar hotelko program chodera
Time nai kaha thiyo ra
Too many things too little time

Schools reunion thikai bhayo
Banashthaliko Nepalma population anusaar
Propotionate nai thiyo representation
Ani thiyo SEBS, X&M, Bhanubhakta

Gajjab thiyo attention to detail
Khelkood sabai ma, khane peune ma
History making Nepali Naari ko basketball
Mero salaam timiharu DC Athletic Club lai

Kyah rocking 1974AD gajab thiyo
Prem Raja le ta mero mun jityo
Dukhi geet ma pani nache yuwa harule
Deep Shrestha ko muskan khuskyo

Nepali Mandir ko program Sunday
Prabachan ani meetho free bhojan
Hamro pratishtha, hamro chinha
Pataal pravesh garechan samuyhik rupma

5 hajaar Nepali jamma bhayeko
Pahileko bhanda tin guna manche
Glitches ta hunenai bhayo
Mero badhai DC ko Nepali haru lai


Sadhubad!

Yo kabita le pani testai first yaa second prize paauthyo holaa tyo kabita pratiyogeetamaa. Real Crap. Did u turn the news published in Washington Post to a poem dude?

Good one Conventioneer ji!

Agree with asiantric, I think your poem sums up the convention well. For me the highlight was definitely women's basketball and meeting long lost friends. Bar was good, I'm not suprised it got emptied. Cultural program went on and on, concert started late, banquet had the not fully cooked rice, other than that I can't think of anything to complain. It was a big four day event and I know the organizers(I know some of them) worked very hard to make it a success. It did turn out to be a blast.

Why are you so negative V-oltaire ji? Did you even attend the poetry compettition? Don't denigrate other people's aspirations.

Man, You should not give up your day job. The convention might have been great but your painting of the picture with this "CRAPPY" poem of your's just spoiled it. Man I wish I have never stumbled upon your creation you call a poem here but oh well... Please do not write any more poems in the future.

sincerely

Dear God! Help me from these so-called poems! Nepali poetry has not moved an inch from the era of Bhanubhakta. Nothing wrong with that I suppose, but just questioning the quality of all these poems. Why are mountains always green and beautiful? Why are they never brown and sunk in down down below the earth? Why does everybody loves so much the country one left behind? Why doesnot even a single freaking soul hate the matribhumi? What the hell is this? The "Poetry!" Rhyming seems to be the diamond chariot that these poets think will take them to the golden land of Kabidom!

Right on Mother Goose! I think Hallmark needs to start recruiting from among these fo called "Poets".

Poem is okay nepali engilish miseko, not all that but still informative.

Really, the pandit said that binayak is started by all religion, can some body shed some light on this??
