Walking with thy Lord!!!


(God's words of wisdom)

 
My Child, let me take you by the hand
And walk with you through this thick sand.
For there are things that you must see,
Like footprints in the sand.

For all I Know The road to glory
Is always tough and so lonely..
As your deeds would grow in truly
Your enemies, and yes some friends would fury

And yet you would bask in this, only
if you would believe in yourself'
Although - your pride might take in all, 
and you may
 ignore your brother and your mom

But Remember!!

Human life has a minute span
And the mightiest deeds of man,
In time's swift flight, will count no more
Than footprints in the sand.

The hot desert wind, no time heeds.
The tide recedes, returns, recedes.
So, my friend, what is important now
Are your footprints in the sand

And so!!!

A smile here and a kind deed there
Warm hug to the ailing & in despair
Strong shoulder to your brothers woe
Love and care to your parents & bow

Because,
 these won't get lost thy form 
or in a blazing ocean storm
the permanent prints on other life forms
will be hailed all eternity along!!!!

" Luv thy nature !!!! "

Alas! the green has turned grey
Everywhere around is despair

What was once the lushy greens
dazzling sky scrapper now beholds the screen

the flutter, the crawl, fauna roaming along
to blazing speedsters, now, the reality belongs

Rustling leaves or cool breeze baith
piercing sirens and
rattling mechanics are todays fate

Leisurely walks replaced by race
love & faith, has become a bait

Don't u realise a penny worth
Of ur mother (nature) who gave u birth

Why everytime she has to sacrifice
Isn't it our turn to turn the tide!!!

"छेड़ो न सरगम !!"

छेड़ो न सरगम
ऐ हमदम
कोई नगमा न बन जाये!
साज़े दिल, हैं दबे
अरमाँ मेरे 
 जबाँ पर न छा जायें!

है मन के किसी कोने में
कोई तराना
तुम पर उसे न गुनगुनाना!
संगीत की इन वादियों में
शायद कोई
बन न जाये,  फसाना!

फिर भी मतवाला मन पंछी
भटके है फलक पर
शायद किसी की तलाश में !
मन क्यों हैं बेचैन
मृगतृष्णा बन
ढूंढें किसी की आस में !

दूर कर दो
मन के वीराने को
हाँ शायद
किसी फसाने से
पर फिर क्यों मन भागे है
सरगम के तरानों से.......

Countless PEARLS of MEMORIES !!!


Aah! the rains have left
But the drops that lay ahead
are countless pearls of memories
& that ma heart relates stories

of mother's little sweet talks
& her love wen I'd fall
or swing rides on dad's shoulder
lullabies from grandmother's boulders

Friends & their lil chit-chat
bunking classes for the coffee shack
silly fights on nothingness
finding heaven in togetherness

the fun, the frolic and the fears
the joy, the emotions and sumtyms tears
ma little pearls of memories, stringed
wear them all till time cease....................

"Colour Me Happy!!!!"


Colour Me Happy!!!!

 "रंग दो मुझे सतरंगी 
मैं अब फिरूं हूँ मंनरंगी!!"


N what else cud colour ur life other than "emotions".

Emotions: they are what make Life worth living, n sometimes worth ending. 

So it is not surprising that most of the great classical philosophers—Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza, Descartes, Hobbes, Hume—had recognizable theories of emotion, conceived as responses to certain sorts of events of concern to a subject, triggering bodily changes and typically motivating characteristic behaviour....

Ooh lala!! too much Philosphy !!!!

Bugged by the virus of emotion since birth, I'm always awestruck and amused to observe varied expression and expressionless emotions which have an immense power to create, recreate and alas! destroy too. Yet for EMOTIONS, I may muse
"Its Truth is relative, its understanding is limited."

The fascination began with the first conscious emotion of LOVE for my mom and then ma dad!! Later it developed into AFFECTION for ma brother, CARE for ma friends, JOY here and ANGER there, HAPPY now n SAD then, etc, etc ................

and then to my dismay, I experienced another form of emotion, so very similar in name but unfathomably different - "LOVE", which was to my bewilderment a cocktail of emotions...n along came the realisation of  rather amusing emotions alongside so very objectionably yet intriguingly titled SWEET PAIN aka BLISSFUL HURT.......... 

It was not all, there were more to come n the one I found most brutal of all was , "emotion of loosing somebody dear”. Loosing someone by distance, by misunderstanding, by ditching is one thing but because of death, aah!, to my misery is totally inexpressible coz deep down still it never sinks that SOMEONE IS NOW NO ONE. Forever then seems eternity. And yes, I haven’t been able to give a name to this particular emotion as yet coz its not ‘hurt’, for it hurts more than what hurt can define, pains more than what u can impossibly imagine n is more heart tearing than to be stabbed by a knife!!!!!!

But yes, emotions are not always grey!!!

They are red with ecstacy, pink with innocence & love, coral with wildness and with fury, yellow with friendliness & hope, gold with joy, lime with youthfulness, green with warmth & comfort , turquoise with strength, blue with compassion, purple with excitement .............sometimes it really makes me ColourBlind!!!!!

And yes!!! I love them......love to feel them, awestruck to witness them, take a pride when I bestow them....n sumtimes miserable when I do not achieve the desirables of them!!!
