That Old Man With Gifts And Cakes

She was there into her She knew nothing, not even a word. The ups and downs, the highs and lows All were just stories in a row. When she embraced this beautiful world Her fingers were clenched and her eyes like pearl. She was Gazing to read each face As her heart skipped a beat at a faster pace. Years passed and she came to school Uniform on and a dress for pool. Her sharp mind and her learning power Soon made her the shining star. Uncles and aunts visited her place Listened to her jingles with all that grace. She loved that tall old man Who came to meet her in a white van. He used to bring gifts and cakes And asked for a little hand shake. She merrily and happily went with him To a place at night where the lights were dim. What happened that night no one knows 'Cause after that day she never spoke. All her poems and rhymes and verses Were lost in that night leaving no traces. Several nights have passed since then Why this chirpy creature became a s...

Create Your Own..

There are times when you want everything to go on in your way, in the way like you thought. You think that whatever you have planned that is the way in which things will go on. But the time changes, what people are today they might not be the same tomorrow. Their thoughts might change and accordingly you also deviate and go the other way. We never know what’s next even when we are pretty sure  about what is going to come. When we are sure that everything will go fine at that moment we are somewhere aware of the silence before that storm. We know in that little corner of our heart that things are not going to be actually fine. But to convince ourselves we show off, we smile, we laugh, we think about those beautiful moments of life. Things happen, you cannot stop them. What you can do is what is going on their in your skull, that clustered box. One more thing what you can do is do nothing. Then too the things will go on as they are destined. Destiny here does not relate to all t...

This world is round

I kept on walking in a queue  Avoiding all voices coming to my ears. I kept on watching the drops of dew, Thinking how this world revolves around smiles and tears. In this queue I met many faces, These faces became familiar at once. They left when we were learning tying shoe laces, And never hoped to meet them again. I still kept on walking coz' life said so Letting the trees and flowers shed their leaves. I Watched the birds sitting in a row, And the priests turning their rosary beads. But who can deny the truth of science, That this world is round and moves around. The one you left, their existence Is still there making that familiar sound. Like the new morning gives you the old sunrays, Similar are the ways of life. You can come across those gone days, And meet your forgotten guys. So, be ready to taste the spice, No one knows in which corner you will be found. Oh! Not the corner of course, This is true that this world is round.

Is Loneliness So Powerful?

Laughter, giggles, joy and me All are disappearing rapidly. Why something is devouring my soul, Is this because I am alone? Her sounds of laughter used to fill the corridor sometimes. Today there is an uncanny silence surrounding that place. Her world was lonely, therefore, she left to explore the other world. She left because she did not find place in her own world, she left because, she was left. Is this the story we hear everyday? We say, we are progressing, we are empowering women, are we really? She just wanted to move out and embrace a new life. She wanted to bear the scorching heat of the sun and feel the cool drops of winter rains on her skin. She did not ask you to be her umbrella. She only wanted to be with you. But you, simply left. It is fine that you did not want to be with her therefore you chose the other way and decided to move away from her. But when you moved in, was it only your decision? Well it was even better for her that you went away because she was ...

That Cup Of Tea..

It was normal, it was fine, Their days were jolly, they slept on time. They had friends, lovely ones, But still something, was undone. They knew each other, texted a lot, Sometimes, they would never give a damn thought. They were not best friends, But they were friends, after all. Seldom they would see each other, Never thought of eating together. Days would pass, becoming months, There would be no sign of both of them. Slowly, gradually that day arrived, When even spirits were waiting for  the twist in time. That day was lazy, during chilly winters, They had decided to share a cup of tea together. Like the leaves turn green, After rains. Like the wet mud smells, Near the sea shells. There was a twist that had come, In the straight road without a turn. Now, seldom was a seldom word, Often was the latest term. Talks and thoughts they started sharing, Everyday was a new beginning. Life was in happiness and glee, They ...

Memories will hold you back

Open the doors, let the breeze come in Step ahead and hear it sing. Grab that moment, don't look back, Coz this is the time, leave the track. Cut all knots if they don't open, Melt your desires if they were frozen. Just one leap of truth is all you need, Speak out loud and work for your greed. Run, walk, stumble or fall Do something to maket it all. Stretch your hands, forget thoughts which were sour, Lay on the ground and just watch the stars. Try new jeans or wear a floral crown, Sing a song and let your fingers snap. Move on the road and don't turn around, Coz your memories will hold you back.

The Six Souls.....

The stage was all set Crowd roaring out loud Their footsteps in fret And the audience, spellbound. The aura and charm Of these mesmerizing ladies Was of course simple and calm But like sprightly blooming daisies. They fabricated a circle Then stood in a row Overcoming all hurdles These dames ready to steal the show. Painted in black Red, covered their delicate waist Whole throng taken aback Gazing them, all stuck and amazed. Their blonde-black hair Swirling with each step Spreading a magic in the air Capturing all eyes with respect. Glittering lights Focused on their face Smiling all over They had made their place. Each and every shift Went in a flow So clean and swift Elegant moves, fast and slow. These captivating queens Like water they flowed Illuminating the whole arena Building up 'The six souls'.

The Tale Ahead

The journey of life is too long Everyday reopens a new door Every latch leaves you weak or strong Today on cloud nine tomorrow on floor. Emotions wobble up your heart Thoughts scratch your mind How the next day will start? Wish I could click and rewind. He said his days of glory have begun She said her sorrows will never end He never came home, he was undone She stood there all happy and content. The road with bumps and jerky rides The sea with tides and storm Will be smooth with peaceful nights Calm and entirely warm. This tour is a lost caravan This man is random, that is your kin You believe it since the world began Never tried to change and think. After hours of dreams and guesses You curl up in your bed Shades of life give you many sketches But no one knows the tale ahead...

The Story Of A Girl

Behind the jovial sob of hers Behind the gentle touch of hers Behind the way her little fingers curl There lies the story of a girl. From her tender years of infancy To her mellow years of senility In all her charms, from a box of colours To the necklace of pearl There lies the story of a girl. You remember she gave you her bite She held you firm on the darkest night She danced with you with all lifts and swirls There lies the story of a girl You put your rules, she followed You said no, she agreed You asked her the path, she showed She was happy with every twist and turn There lies the story of a girl. Today she wants to say something She wants her heart to pour out her feelings All her life you were the master Today she wants you to take her side Her serene, simple words leave you repulsed There lies the story of a girl.

Apologies....

When the sky was dark and you found yourself nowhere, When the clouds thundered and you found yourself lost... You wished I was there , I would sacrifice, But I did not... I apologize. When the world was against you and you found yourself alone, When everyone ignored you and you found yourself away... You wished I was there , I would sympathize, But I did not... I apologize. When you were burdened with troubles and you found yourself without a penny, When there was no helping hand and you found yourself lonely... You wished I was there , I would compromise, But I did not... I apologize. I wanted to make that sky clear I desired to be close and near. I craved to take you away from ignorance I urged to fill your world with fragrance. I aspired to be on your side I wanted to be your safest place to hide. But I could not recognize... I apologize. I know these apologies will not soothe your pain These apologies will not bring those days again....

Sometimes I Go In My Wonderland

Sometimes I go in my wonderland While sitting alone or with my gang. That land is not a land of flowers, Nor a land of twinkling stars. That land has no house of sweets, Nor it is full of lighted streets. My land is where humans live, With true sense of humanity. My land is where there is a helping hand, To raise the fallen and let them stand. There is no one to pull you down, Nor the ones who scare you around, There is a freedom to ask and say, There is a freedom to release your thoughts and let them convey. Then I think why I have to go in my wonderland? Why can't it be the same where we stand? Before these strings of thoughts end, I find myself sitting again at the same place where these thoughts began. Why I have to go in my Wonderland.....??
Saw you.. I remember each and everyday,each and every moment spent  I remember each and every word and each and every letter sent I walk down the memory lane,to treasure our past days I wake up early in the morning to think about you every now and then I know world will laugh,I  know they will mock Despite knowing all I am unable to wipe the flash which we made. I feel I am drunk, I feel I am going but I am left helpless, coz. this feeling is defiant. Should I go back and take another road or listen to my heart till its voice ends This is becoming my dream or is this reality ,my power to differentiate is vanishing Whom I should tell or whom to convey   yes!I  do remember each and every moment spent I remember each and every word and each and every letter sent. Oh!! its morning again but I can't see you here ,all my thoughts ,all my perceptions  are evaporating I can't remember any word any letter sent I am lying in my bed n...

I worry..

                                              I Worry.... The first day came then the second,the days ended then the weeks The months ended and then the years, Time swept,flew and ran,we were at the beginning And now we are here..... I don't know what to call it,an era ,a phase or a part of life Where I learnt to grow and thrive Whatever it was, whatever it is I think I am leaving something behind I want to move ahead,I want to get through it But will never want to erase it from my mind....... Whether a better life is waiting for me Or this was it, Whether I will be entangled in the cobwebs Or I will get everything perfect or fit...... The stream of thoughts flow here and there And then I find  myself standing nowhere..... Will these days of laughter be there outside Will you be there by my side Will there be our silly ...

Well..I am here to discuss about a rather important but very less preferred topic.Its something related to "BOLLYWOOD".Now what..!! you might be thinking that I am a freak as Bollywood !! yeah....Bollywood is the most awaited topic and I have just stated it as the "LESS PREFERRED ONE" ?.So I will not take time to bring that to your notice that its not exactly that but its about the movies which deserve the best attention and reviews but are lost somewhere in the throng of all those stories full of love,romanticism between two people,comedy,suspense,thriller and the most viewed one, fiction.

So ,this is the only problem with you,the audiences out there.I am just talking about the movies which depict "TERRORISM".yeah...the only sentence which might have clicked your mind is "What !!...boring...".Who wants to see all that bloodshed,arms,destruction and hatred in the films w...

Today I Feel Something New

Today I feel something new..... A feeling which I think is only with few. Today I feel something in the air..... A feeling which I know is always rare. This weather has added taste to my thought... It might remain there for moments very short. But I feel that something is new.... A feeling which I think is only with few. From morning to day from day to night... Every second seems to be bright. Every hour is like a river flowing in me.... A river of joy and glee. Not a single minute has turned to be in vain.... As I am in the wonder train. The train of your mesmerizing thought... It holds me there.....and I can't ignore it.. I am sure!! I awaited this day for long.... I awaited my turn to come... I want this hour to cease..... Slip slowly, crawl and creep. Do not know what will happen tomorrow... I have died to live this moment today.. Coz....! what I feel is new... New for like me who are very few. ...
Fading Memories..... Viewing the outside world through my eyes dry I was standing at my doorstep Suddenly some chuckling noise I could hear,with my whole heart and soul in fret Stealthily I entered in that sound ,everything was blurred and no one around That image became clear and I could see,my real and everlasting memories That chuckling noise was no one else but me and my notorious friends That was the time when I was a school kid, when no one questioned about whatever I did We were walking through the corridors, plucking flowers with our tender hands I could hear the bell that rang forcing us to stand and pray then our stupid games began Then I moved on in our classes, those scratched windows with glasses Hey! I can see our names still there for which we were scolded and warned not to be spared Now I am moving more deeper,the whistling noise, its time to recreate and rejoice The ground is vast and free,we are there rushing down the ...
