C--CELEBRATE...!!!

As the freshness of Spring lingers on

with a refreshing sprightliness all around

bringing in new milieu, new life

this day brings in a new year

As the beauty of the jasmines surround

and their fragrance fills the air

thats unmatched by any Nature's creation

Its special time to celebrate

Today, we celebrate a new year day

with a dish that brings in all tastes,

sweet sour bitter, moments in life

We celebrate Ugadi, our new year day

Its a festival of colorful nature

Its a festival of meadows with blossoms

Its a festival of verdant fields

Its a festival of families together

Also, its a festival of our literature

its the festival of Telugu art

its the festival when poets unite

to celebrate the beauty of ART

Ugadi, a day that brings new hopes

I celebrate today, away from family

yet, I celebrate my art

here at my Land of Dreams

HAPPY UGADI...!!!

Ugadi Subahakankshalu...!!!

25th june 1983

A moment when the whole Nation cherished and the whole world was looking at us...The

moment when I wasn't born

but I grew up hearing the stories about it from my father....There was joy around every time I heard it from him...Everytime I saw the pictures, I experienced happiness...but I was waiting for experiencing the

moment myself..!!!

After that moment, the journey of the Nation was joyous and in 2003, it was to reset the record once again but it didn't. I remember, during the 2003 game, I was giving my 10th boards and the final was a day before my Maths paper...Only God knows how we studied. While all this was one part, in 2007 it all ended even before it started...I was still waiting..!!!

02nd April 2011, the history is rewritten..!!!

A moment to cherish

for every coming day

A moment to celebrate

for every Indian

Win of a religion

that has no atheists

Win of a Nation

that grew with it

It unites the Nation

Every citizen fancies

one dream one victory

which came true

It happened once again

I witnessed it myself

Yet again, India won

ICC World Cup 2011

Wow..I experienced it..Now I shall tell my children about this day and I shall show them the videos and pictures of how I enjoyed the game specially amidst 1000+crowd of the same age group watching together in the College auditorium...it was the best day of my life...!!!

I never knew that one day I shall be tired of smiling...tired of cheering...tired of celebrating...tired of being happy...now this is exactly my situation...tired of smiling...as it was happening the whole day...when Zaheer and Yuvraj took the wickets and when Gambhir played one of his best innings, while Yuvi n my favorite Dhoni hitting the boundaries...wow it was LEGENDARY...!!!

The journey of the God of Indian Cricket has been a beauty...but today, the World cup added to his life...Sachin we will miss you...!!!

I think the victory was not just because of today's game...it started when the selectors actually selected

the team...It was a journey of being together as a team and carrying the single DREAM of the nation on their shoulders...and finally achieving it...!!!

Now, I am going to tell my children what it is to experience VICTORY of the NATION...!!!

the JOURNEY of a new story just begun..!!!

is all that I possess

A pen to write

A brush to paint

A dream to achieve

A beautiful world

is all that I possess

I am happy

for all that I have

as it formed me

a better person I am

JOURNEY CONTINUES...!!!

"All set to leave dear" he asked her as it was time for her to leave to enter a new phase of life that's just about to begin.

"Yes, Dad. we shall leave in other 2 minutes" she assured him from her room.

After the next two minutes, she has come out of her room, hugged her little sister and her mother and turned to her father with the luggage.

"Let's go darling its time" he said taking his part of the luggage and holding her hand in the other.

She wanted to cry but she didn't. This was her first time she is going away from home and is disturbed with the thought that there will none of them with her for the next 2 years as by then she will be completing her studies. She was atleast happy that her father will be coming to drop her at the new place.

With this her journey to be independent started and now after two years, she has learnt a lot in life and had enjoyed the new place and the new people around. She had dreamt new dreams and got all strength to achieve them. But in the meanwhile, the first dream of her, two years back shattered.

She always wanted to go back home after studies and be with her parents in her city but now she has to take a new train to a new place to work with new people. She is happy but somewhere in the corner of her heart, there is emptiness.

Now, sitting in the train for the new place, she is still smiling as she is a step ahead in fulfilling her dreams.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME...!!!

few years back
for the first time
the beautiful world
saw a little girl

she grew up with smiles
amidst joy, love and care
a beautiful heart
she turned to be

a young lady today
with all smiles spread
around celebrating life
she is a happy soul

She is a Princess
in this Land of Dreams
Here is a dream
wishing her "Happy Birthday"

Wonder not who am I
I am her
here singing out
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME"

ALL MY LIFE I WAIT...!!!

All my life I wait
To be in your arms
Safe and happy
In the comfort of your love

All my life I wait
For the eternal first kiss
A touch so soft and tender
With the passion flowing free

All my life I wait
To explore a new world
That’s sweet and special
With just you and me

All my life I wait
To live with you
Will life be left?
Once I find you, I now wonder

But dear love,
All my life
I shall wait
For you and only you
