RAIN..!!!

falling down
lifting me up
pooling up
all my smiles

my little friend
though you are late
I welcome
with open arms

With you I feel
like the bird
free to fly
up the world so high

dear rain drop
dance with the tune
special to you
close to my heart

JAB "WE" MET..!!!

Things have different every single day this July. To me, July was a boring month, coz’ there are no birthdays, no special dates, it was kind of boring month every year. But this year, it has actually turned interesting.

This July, I got to know who HE is. I now see those dreams complete as I could actually see him in it. Yes, am engaged. Everything happened just like that. Before I realized that I was actually going to get married, everything was confirmed.

The most interesting part of this special moment is that I knew who he was and how he looks like only after 10 days of me saying YES. July 1 2011, I said YES but dint know exactly how he looked like. I met him a couple of times earlier, but didn’t know who he was.

10 July 2011, the day when we first met as the To Be couple. Though I knew him earlier, that day he was different.

When I first met you
It's you, I never knew
now time revealed
that we are meant to be

The special bond
makes me feel new
Long have I searched
Finally I found you

Complete is my heart
with you in it
complete is my dream
as I see you in it

You are the one
The moment I knew
I smiled, I blushed
and started to love

I do believe that God above,
Created you for me to love.
He chose you from all the rest,
Because he knew I would love you best.

WELCOMING HER..!!!

As a reader I met
who encouraged
my pen to write
since my heart felt

As a friend he turned
sharing my li'l world
in my smiles and tears
A special blogger friend

He met his girl
turned a loving husband
their love is eternal
so is their joy

Today, he is a father
of a li'l baby girl
A happy moment
forever fresh

On this special day
I share this dream
to welcome the baby girl
to his extremely beautiful world..!!

RAINS ARE BACK...SO IS MY POETRY...!!!

from up above the skies
as drops of joy
my special friend
just returned back

the little rain drop
kissed my cheeks
the orchestral symphony
refreshed my senses

With freshness around
it brought me a smile
With special seven colors
it brought us cheer

My li'l friend, dear rain drop
thanks for coming back
coz' without you
I missed being ME

P.S. on the occasion of first rain of this monsoon in Hyderabad...!!!

CONFUSION..!!!

She was the most beautiful bride ever. She looked amazing in her custom made Wedding gown and the pearl studded crown was holding the light veil gorgeously in place. The room was all decorated with the combination of pink and purple orchids and the air was scented with the best roses. It seemed like a perfect wedding day.

But she was tensed. She was marring her love of life whom she has known for years. But still, today she felt something different. She knew everything shall go well, but something unknown to us was disturbing her. He mom said, every bride has that feeling. Her dad just smiled when she told him.

She was looking out of the window, at the natural beauty but the smile was missing without her notice.

"Darling its time for us to join him" her dad opened the door.

She was not listening. Her dad called twice, but she dint turn back. Suddenly, a little rain drop kissed her cheek and she smiled. Her dad called her again.

She was then confused, whether to dance in the rain or to walk silently along the aisle and marry him. She was confused but decided to join him.

It was a happy wedding.

She did join him but they also danced in the rain as the happy couple.

OATH..!!

I saw him everyday...rather he saw me everyday while on my way to college. His dark eyes never went off me until i board my bus. His ragged clothes turn dirtier each day but he never missed to find me each day. He never changes his place, never his smile.

"Dada why do you keep looking at me everyday??" I asked him one day.
He smiled but was silent.

After a few days, i knew the answer.

Its her daughter I remind him of. She killed herself years ago. She was abused by her 10 years elder brother first when she was just 7 and it continued for years. She bore all the pain but never knew whom to talk about it. One day when he turned as a Devil she couldnot bear the pain any more and the same day, she killed herself.

Her dad, this old man, cant fight his son for his lost daughter nor can he live in a world of such cruelty. He is fighting his life everyday waiting for death.

I was moved. I am lucky that I never faced any horror this way but I decided to be the helping hand to those innocent beings.

Today As I take the Gold medal as a Law Student, I take an oath in his name to save as many daughters as I can.

CHILDHOOD BUDDIES..!!!

Childhood is the sweetest phase of life. I think every dreamer here will accept this statement.

I had a pleasant childhood. A group of friends who were there for almost 12 years of school.
Every day we met and every single day and shared every moment in life. Today, some of these friends share a long bond of nearly 18years and in these years, nothing changed. We still fight as we did in our kindergarten days. This I realized today, when I met them in a party.

We taunt each other, we laugh out loud no matter whoever is around. We eat too many ice creams (as we did as little kids), we make fun of everyone in the group.

To me these friends are even more special. They taught me LOVE. I still remember the first day when I entered my class, everyone was looking weirdly at me (I was the tallest girl the class then), but soon they accepted me as one of their friends and this was 18 years ago. Today, they still pull my hair and pass comments about my little extra pound personality. It never hurt me with these guys, coz they know me since ages and accept me as myself.

Friendship is definitely never ending. I grows and grows and one day stops along with our breathe. Life has given me too many too good friends but my childhood buddies are the sweetest of all. Even octaves donot know me as these guys do.

Cheers to my childhood sweet hearts and long live our friendship..!!

PERCEPTIONS..!!!

“People only see what they are prepared to see”

I think it holds good about beliefs as well. “People only believe what they want to believe”

Today I had an interesting conversation with my mom and neighbours. Mom and the neighbouring aunties meet every evening and talk about anything and everything in the world. They gossip every day…I never understaood how could they.

Today, I had a very boring day. So in the evening, as the book I was reading also was over, I joined the group to refresh myself. Soon, the topic somehow diverted to Religion and God…my favorite topic to debate about. Finally it ended on a serious note as they never intended to think of my logic. They just beilve what they believe is right. If someone contradicts it with a rational logic, they get on to their nerves..!!!

These are my beliefs:

1. I strongly believe that Raavan is far better than Lord Ram. Raavan when he got Sita, he told her wife. He never even touched Sita. He respected her to be another man’s wife. But Lord Ram abandoned his own wife just listening to a Dobhi’s words.

2. Lord Ram leaves Sita in the forest to catch the Golden deer. But he never caught it. He let his arrow kill the deer. If he really is such a gentleman, he should not have killed it in the first place.

3. Lord Ram needed the help pf Vibhishana, the brother of Raavana, to kill him. Vibhishana told Ram the family secret about the weak point of Ravana so that he can be killed. Without his help, Ram was just fighting, not winning.

4. In the great war of Kurukshetra, Arjuna killed Karna when he was trying to get his suck cart out. But still, people love Arjuna and not Karna who was following a path of righteousness.

5. Abhimanyu knew the way to get into the Padmavyuha but not the way out. How can be a hero if he cant come out on his own?

6. In South India, Diwali is celebrated on the account of the death of a demon named Narakasura who was killed by Satyabhama(wife of Lord Krishna). But the same Diwali in North India is celebrated as Lord Ram returned to Ayodhya. How can a festival have two stories??

These are some points that I believe and to me they sound logical. But in a country like India, where beliefs are given more importance, when you question a story about God, you are humiliated, scolded and what not and the end of they, they just say “elders said”.

Even now, as I write this post, I don’t understand how can people just blindly believe about anything but I just feel that “people don’t want to think at all…as they feel that it may hurt what they for years.”

Anyways..nothing is going to change..!!

P.S.: everything written in this post is completely what i think...if it hurts any of your personal feelings...am sorry...i never intended to do so...hope you understand..!!

MARRIAGE SEASON..!!!

A happy time for me…first reason,am back home. Its always great to be back home…!!!

The next is…its marriage time…no no not mine but my friends’. OMG…we never had so many wedding cards at a time in our home…everyday someone or the other friend or relative or an aquaintance is getting married…the whole family is too busy these days..!!

The marriages for which I am too happy about are coming this weekend…my two childhood friends are getting married on the 21^st and 22^nd..!!

Shanis and Swetha…my two childhood buddies are getting married. I have known them for almost 18 years now. We used to sit on the same bench for years, they are my sweetest and oldest friends. We learnt counting, hand writing, etc together and we enjoyed.

Shanis was too good in science. She helped me do my science home work while Swetha was good in everything specially Telugu…yeah I was bad in Telugu…I could say Swetha is my favorite Telugu teacher…!!

So you must be wondering what did I teach them…I taught them handwriting…yeah I was (am) good at that. I remember how they used to help me with the mat tables which I don’t know till date. Every memory of my childhood had these two special friends of mine..!!

So this May, my most beautiful friends are getting married…ofcourse to two different people…!! As they join the wedlock with their better halves, I wish them all the success and best time together through my Land of Dreams..!!!
