The Eternal Shades

The festival of colours, as we celebrate,

The skies desired to be colourful too.

Nature’s  palette contained warm, infinite and fathomless shades,

I wish ours were also so profound, and not so few…!!

Says The Little One

A tiny speck he was, rolling on the surface of the vast and boundless world,

The larger droplet, kept pleading to be careful, but was generally unheard.

If I come to you he said, I would lose my identity for sure,

Nevertheless my love for you is immense and pure.

The water beneath looks alluring and I envisage a jump into it very soon,

Then who knows I rise in the night with the tide, when in the sky appears the mighty moon.

The Winter Of Life

With the winter setting in, I realised, it’s the time to get into a cosier nest.

Within me though, there was a different thought, should I keep myself zealous as ever or should I rest?

The people who go into hibernation once they reach the winters of their lives,

Never know how the fish is alive under the frozen river water and how a little bird who migrates over vast lands, thrives..!!

As we season we should remember where the next minute would take us we are unaware.

Then why to miss even insignificant moments as we age, why to just give away our share.

Veracious Twilight

“But you were small last time..we met”.. she could not believe he was so tall,

The elder sister that she was, she was there for all his little falls.

They posed in front of the mighty sea as it embraced the sun ‘n it’s glory,

And the unstoppable waves, collided all around, to be a part of this beautiful story.

The gentle sea breeze tickled them and whispered as they smiled,

A sibling is always your best friend, grown up or as a child.

Questions

Trapped behind the glass, she whispered in my ears,

Before they confined me to these walls, I experienced no fears.

Incredible used to be my days, nights were phenomenal too,

Now I long for nothing, I am just a thing to view.

Can you tell me something, what’s wrong with you folks on earth?

First you got into our territories and then you got us here, where no one has any worth.

In the vastness of sea I freely flourished on my terms and conditions,

The water used to empower me , I never had to bother about my positions.

Nature exists abundantly for all, you care for her or not,

At least don’t take us away from her, what’s wrong with you, exactly what?

Consciousness

Away from the crowd she thought she should go, for the peace seemed to dwell there.

Aloud laughed at her, the mind, as it exclaimed… “the control lies within you, right here. “

So she wound up her thoughts and decided not to leave, but to ceaselessly stay on,

At the end of the day, she comprehended , everywhere it’s the same dusk n same dawn.

Let me not pause at the past or envisage the future, she enduringly decided,

And by her own consciousness, on a marvellous journey she was then guided.

You Make Me Proud

Jayati, as you turn 21

It’s beautiful to have a kid who is always a kiddo at her heart.


It’s an emotion beyond explanation, especially when this eternal angel is your part.


Hardships can’t stop you, you take them in a stride.


And as you successfully move ahead, my heart is so full of pride.


You are much stronger than you know and vivacious to the core,


You are not just another girl on planet, your existence means much more.

The Soldier Dad

He stood there moltan like wax,

As he heard that he was a father now.

His eyes were wet with tears of joy,

He wanted to be there, but didn’t know how..

His duty to the motherland held him back,

He was a soldier first, he knew in his heart.

But the same heart whispered that he was a human too,

From his emotions, how should he part?

Days, months and years flew by,

And the visits to home were few and rare

The achromatic journey of life moved on,

Of love from the family he missed his share.

The children grew up and moved on to new directions,

The wife still waited for togetherness though,

She knew he was the finest one,

Even if life’s boat alone she had to row.

Rock he was, strong and steady,

With his shoulders broad and wide.

His absence never meant he didn’t love them,

Just that his life wasn’t a very smooth ride.

The Muddy Stream

The muddy waters remind me of the days of mixed up thoughts,

When circumstances are beyond our control and comprehension.

When the mind has no clue how to clear the clutter up,

And the heart shouts that it too has apprehension.

When I know I need to sieve unwanted speculations,

The ones that affect my integrity and peace.

Yet it rains uncertainty every now and then,

And mixes up the unwanted sandy ideas with ease.

Yet I move on swiftly through the circumstances,

The mountains never ever dare to cease me.

The greens help me appear beautiful throughout

To touch each pebble, each blade of grass, I am free.

The Landing

With the moon above and the sun appearing beneath,

I landed dreaming of a place from anxieties which would sheath.

The gold in the sky whispered with a smile,

Try creating this balance within you for a while.
