Everythg that you see in the mirror......is everythg that you ever tried to be!!

Things change and so do people!

They forget they once were a baby

and that they've learnt this big word called universe

it was not natural....never

they even needed a hand to stand.....to hold

they were taught the language.....thats how they interact now!

thats how they show.............emotions!

what we are today is everything we ...

learnt....

practised...

felt right to do !

When I look back from where I am

I feel things were too simple to do!

may it be that first stage performance

the board exams....

that office presentation....

getting married....

becoming a mother......etc etc ...

nothing was ever so BIG as I thought it...

what made those things fearsome...difficult

.was......

that it was my first time...!

Situations change

but the change they bring in us...

is for our betterment....

What I learnt is .................

I can strive for my betterself...

I can go that extra mile.....and enjoy the view

I can just be in the moment....and be a part of it

and no one can stop me....from  being me!

Silence Speaks

Silence speaks volumes
specially when I am with me!!

silence is soothing...it gives peace :)
when we work..and .....we love
near a silent beach
and wuh the soothing breeze...wow!

 it is disturbing......
when we avoid situations....obstruct thoughts
like an argument among friends....
a heated board meeting...

silence is power !
when we face......we stand firm.
we know whats right
and yes we do fight !

it might be an emotion ,
felt deep within...
a soul departing.....leaving sorrow and grief
or a new born....sleeping quietly!

it may take alot of time,
and may result in many forms,
but I personally feel
it is the time
when you interact with self....
assess...and guide......
that small seedling thought
it is like a baby within...
give it the best.....nourish it
and share it .....
because silence can speak volumes!

SHE - is so special to be :)

she is soft......she is kind

She is beautiful.....she has a mind

She is everything that a man needs

She can be anything a family needs!

She has dreams

She has power

She has patience

She has a heart

There's nothing that can bound her

But alot of love... she can hold!

A girl should i call her

Or a grown up woman

Dads princess i can call her

Or some kiddos super mom!

She is nothing less than anyone

Nothing more than herself.

Its a pleasant peaceful day

That i think about her

And gives me immense pleasure

To be like her!

She is in those strange smiles

That are shared when i cross the road.

She is those stories

That i watch in theatres

She is  everywhere around

Yet in a different city!

She is near......yet distant by time

She is here...with me....in me

She is everythg i am today

:)

Life... A lie

I never wished for the stars

Nor the moon or the farthest pluto

It was you who i wished for

Yesterday....today....and in the time to come. 

I do not run after things

What I have  is worth thanks giving! 

I too have responsibilities 

But I just happened to know what life is. 

Life is a journey where you explore

Who you really are! 

The day you realize 

Is your  day of salvation! 

Things wont hurt then, 

Nor people will. 

You will be so much more

So much more than you can think

Its summer!

Yes it is summer
And yes it is hot
I look at my rooms curtain
It has leaves printed on it
And the sun is still peeping through it.
It adds life to my curtain.... To my room
Even at this time
When it is about to set!
It gives me a happy feeling:)

Some everyday simple things
Give  you such a satisfying thought!
It is you who looks at the brighter side
It is you to decide whether to smile
And it is you who makes your everythg worthwhile!

I am learning

Life is never about someone
Nor, is it a story of you!

It is a walk
Where I can get tired and stop!
 I can fall and get hurt
Where I admire all that nature has
 I meet people....
Some join me... Some leave
I get stuck at some place
But the walk...  the walk doesnt end
And I continue....
To feel happier... To experience more
To live more.... To laugh more...
And finally to reach the end
Thats death...

We can bring a change

"This is nuisance on the roads!"
I shout so easily looking at the jam!
I get down and walk
I take a few steps more..
And there is litter on the turns!
"What the hell is this now!"
I shout again as if I own the roads...the streets..
As if I clean them everyday!
Its easy to.be angry...
Easy to blame
Easy to yell at someone
But it takes alot to bring a change!
To believe in the good
To trust others
Still, I think it is someone's job!
And yes it is!
It is the job of the people....!
Because we dont own the roads... they belong to us!
WE THE PEOPLE - is one of the most powerful word

Life's treasure is people not things 😊😊😊😊

My Blue

Once there lived a little mountain sparrow

which grew into a handsome blue bird.
Birds named him "BLUE"
because his wings looked like a piece of sky !
nobody knew his family,
all they knew was - He was so different!

BLUE

Blue always flew in a flock,
untill the day...................
he wished to explore the BIG SKY !
In the cold breeze......
he went higher and higher

to witness a little sunshine

filtering through the clouds...

the baby leaves....opening their eyes...

multiple flowers.....blooming together
just then a snow flake ran down his blue wing.....
the next moment it was lost !
as if something that never was !
he felt divine !

Now that became a routine for Blue.
He rested on a cloud,
sang songs that felt divine ;)
greeted even the passersby...

One day, his favorite cloud turned grey
there was no place to rest or stay.
he realized it was water dropping time
it was not safe to stay....
what made it difficult was
the thunder that played games.
Blue could hardly manage to come down
when it got struck by one!
He now lay on the mud,
The piece of sky.......BLUE is wounded .....on the ground....!

There was still something in him alive,
The blue wings that still had life..!
so they flapped ....and flapped
and lifted him up....
higher and higher,they took him up !
when came out all the birds
on hearing the loud flapping sound.....
they saw something that they could not believe!
there was no bird.......no BLUE in sight
only blue feathers above and down....
Every feather had an address so unique
where Blue had .....built nests...... for each !
Like the snowflake ........a piece of the sky
felt heavenly......but was lost in a while!
so was BLUE .........a piece of the sky !

The Happiness Rule !

"
Give the best you can......only if you want to give without getting
because no one has promised to return your BEST....!
"


"
There may be ten thousand reasons to feel weak and give up
but just one reason to feel better......a FAMILY !
"

One more step :)

Oh what a joy is each passing day !
for a day you cannot wait to live !

people say the journey is beautiful,
more beautiful than the thing itself.

It is very hard to say
sometimes the road is tough,
it can break you down...
so badly...that you give up......
the dream of that special DAY !

OR should you wait and check out
if the shoes you are in...
is what makes the road difficult to stay,
so take a break....
brush your fingers in the air
breathe out what is breaking you down!
believe in the reason
that made you stay .......till date !

****
Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. 
They quit on the one yard line.

I found this in my drafts. Its quite an old piece. 

I crave for you

Flowers....of every colour...
Yes ! a special day it was.
yet I craved for your voice.
I know presence is not everything
I believe love does not need words...or a form
Still I need one........

I know you are there....more than always
yet I wish to see you.
I know you are safe...
.......................satisfied
.......................learning
.......................exploring
.......................understanding
.......................overcoming
yet I wish to hear from you.
I know you will take care,
yet I want to care for you.
I want to be what I am to you !

I never write things that make me feel low......
but this moment I have you in my eyes....
this time.......
I crave for you !

He Teaches Me Something New - No. 1

I lift him up...then down
on the bed, he lay
he doesn't know where he is !
he doesn't care who is beside...!
all he knows...is to sleep
to yawn...to pee....to poo
to smile....and to cry !
and WE ?
we are like that box at home T.V !
which has a button to switch ON and OFF
we get up and the show starts
with the sleepy night, the show ends!
when it is time to die
we remember...what we din't do !
what we could have !

Dear friend...
there is nothing permanent in this life
what you have today,
may not stay long.
what you long for ,
may not make you as happy as you think!
Fine clothes and dining are temporary
Search your true happiness
and let it stay....grow with it !
feel satisfied to have it !
and when its time...
let it fly :)

Time is flowing by :)

I saw a baby today !
it made me feel I'm growing old.......not an old & tired one
but yes older than yesterday....older day by day.
there were things I thought I'll do when I graduated
things I thought I'll do when I received my first salary !
and yes to be honest I did very little !

we read books....articles...quotes
about things to do before one dies.
but very few....actually do!
and I want to be in those FEW
I want to live all of it and everything I dare to dream!

because I know......that you too know
there may be a second chance to gain what you lost
but the time won't be the same!
or may be .......you won't be the same !

krishna...the making

 

One is powerful

1 ..............I mean ONE

might ....just be a number after zero 

or the beginning after nothing

1.........might be time

which lasts for a second.....and ends with the blink of an eye

or years...........living together and growing old 

1.........might be a heart

Pure and young pounding to love

or old and tired still pumping love

1 might be a day

a girl met a boy

a day.......he proposed

and she nodded......with a "YES!"

1 .....can be anyother thing......

any date.....any moment...a person....or place

that will grow special.......like a dream

or difficult.....like a a nightmare

and will be remembered as 

ONE memory!

***

From the Poet:

1 can be that day.....when I 'll have you

when I'll love you....my dream come true :)

Happy Anniversary !

Rangoli design - 2015

RANGOLI DESIGN - 2015

If I knew what love meant... I would have found you the day I was born

I felt love is never ending

when I saw papa never gets tired,

I realized love is permanent

when mumma smiled even after the long tired day,

I received love even in care

when didi stood always beside,

I discovered love was in fights

that I and chotu have till date ;)

I saw love has no language

because harry can only bark and lick!

love took many forms....

neighbours, friends, colleagues, 

teachers, kids, even strangers with whom we share a smile!

But to be honest

I never knew love meant YOU

not even on the day I met YOU.

With you; 

I FOUND love is unconditional

it has no age, caste, colour, name or even status,

it doesn't notice the clothes you wear 

what matter to love is that you are there.

I love you and I fear nothing

you mean everything

you play all the roles

Now life means YOU

Thank god...heart cannot be soul

Oh my ME !
So bright and beautiful
yet it is dark inside.....
I close my eyes
fold my hands and let loose.
I wish I fall,
on something I can call mine
yet.....
I realize there is nothing that this soul owns
nothing that it owes
It belongs to no one
this soul is free
and no one belongs to it
the heart may crave, may long
may cry out, may die
but it can never conquer the soul.
It can only be what it is.....a heart after all:)

I Love you

so many years...yet so short is life
so many feelings...yet so afraid is the tongue
may the world learn to speak
may the world live for today
may...!
may I have you today....
not in thoughts....but in real!
may I have you before me
may you let me thankyou
for entering my life :)
....
