Rain

To someone very dear, 

Rain brought you, they say.

You are Rain, I believe.

Full of vigor,

you make me live.

Serenity you carry,

transcends your flesh and touches the souls around.

You quench the thirst 

of company 

of symphony.

A company that fulfills,

A symphony that pulsates

And one comes over and over to you..

After all these lonely nights and dry days...

Oh, Rain....

When will you come again...

Memories

Memories, all I have.

Move on, all I do.

What you've got to tell??

You've got to tell

the day you get bored

Of questions asked, answers imposed

Of lies perfect, truth reticent

Of maiden try, ended in wry.

You've got to tell 

the day you get tired

Of endless walks, meaningless talks

Of assumptions made, conclusions shaped 

Of dreams crushed, decisions rushed.

You've got to tell

the day you want to bloom again 

With a rejuvenated heart, an infant start

With no regrets, only intents

For finding hope that you lost.

You've got to YELL

A rare chance

No one will ask

Ever again 

What you've got to tell.

Ummeed

Hope is the ultimate anchor of life. When there is hope, life shall blossom in most barren of lands, bliss shall fill most empty of hearts. If something beautiful is ending , something splendid is waiting ahead. If someone has made you lose hope , there is someone for whom you are the only hope. Let this hope (yours and theirs) kindle all the possibilities in you. 

P.S. It is hope, that I am writing this nonsense, hoping that someone will read it someday and hope that I put end to such hopes. 🙃

U Turns are not Bad

At times, when you are lost and find yourself in a conundrum,  moving ahead mindlessly may take you to a cul de sac. So, it is better to take a U turn, even if it makes you break some rules. Sometimes , it is better to begin again rather than drudging on the wrong road. As Swami Vivekananada says , erasers are not for those who make mistakes but for those who want to correct their mistakes.

So let us begin again and use the eraser.

Else it will be too late and the U turn will become 'No Entry'.

Little things..

Sometimes, little things matter more. These little things together make it large. Just like the food chain depends on tiny phytoplankton, the whole life unequivocally revolves around little bits of happiness and sadness. Make those little bits of happiness your biggest and don't let the little sadness belittle your heart. That's a little secret .

Book Fair 2023

Good people and good books, all that you need to live.

One shall speak to you, one shall listen.

First Post

This is when a pigeon invades a serious discussion on evolution of patriarchy. As if trying to register its protest or may be showing off its freedom from the very patriarchy that incarcerate us.

Anyway, much needed break came in midst of pangs of bitter truth and hunger (when u sit without break fast for first lecture🥲).

Beginnings...

After trying all other means to spit out all that I have in this little mind (a work under progress) , here I am in the refuge of blogger, hoping it doesn't disappoint me.

It is just that I am too lazy to write long texts. So you'll only find few words, sentences, paragraphs. Don't expect more than that. One is often burdened by one's own expectations. Bear with it :)
