Nature

Refreshing drizzle
Little rain here
And a little there
Turn the boring brown
To luscious green
And then the sight
Of her walking amidst the woods
Is the beauty in itself
Rains and peacocks
Redefine the beauty of nature

#AtoZChallenge Day 7: G--Grief..!!

A little princess I shall be

Beautiful as the daisies

Soft as the cottons of daffodils

Bounce on me all your duties

I shall bear all in smile

Giving not a reason to grumble

A sign of pride I shall be

High as the mountains

Wide the skies

Sing me lullaby

And play me a swing

All little things enough for me

A gentle touch I seek

An embrace of love

A tender kiss o await

All I shall let go if

You give me a chance to live

Not erase me afore my birth

Am a little girl yet to be born

For years now

And more to come

#AtoZChallenge: Day 6: F-- First Love..!!!

You were there to walk me through

Every moment, bright or dark

That little smile you wear

Is my wall of strength

Deeper the problem, wider you smiled

And world looked simpler after that

Brighter looked my dreams

Each time you smiled

I know you are there for me to hold

In times when I am lost

You celebrated every little thing

Best was at my birth

You rejoiced your daughter

World spoke in time

Whatever comes my way, dear Dad

You are my first love

Always dear to my heart

Nothing can replace you in me

And everything I do, I achieve

Is all for you, for that smile, for your love

#AtoZChallenge Day 5: E--Ebullience

With every rising sun

I wake up and look

At the hundred things

On my to-do list

When I reach work

A hundred more add on

But its you who wake me up

In the real sense

Every twist & turn

Something I learn

Each one of you

Feed in me, the energy in you

We learnt together all through

Sometime you, many times me

We grew with time

And two years were long and short

Dear student

You bring in energy

To every day I wake

And that moment,

When you bring a pack of sweets

With a job in hand

Energy multiplies

As I feel won as a teacher

#AtoZChallenge Day 4: D -- Dalliance

Foliage of dandelions

Dancing to the tune of the winds

Among the conflate of warmth and the early mist

The yellow blooms bright in the sun

Rippling a curve of smile on my lips

Over a cup of coffee

And a break from my book

I enjoyed their splendor

Wrapped up the moment

To live the day ahead

As a little girl I was then

Often I ran, to touch and feel

Once they turn white soft cottons

They were lost to the kiss of the winds

I fancied a dream come true

I wait another spring

Gazing at the eternal land

To experience her beauty

Spread in the infinity

Giving birth with each death

She is my love

Short lived yet beautiful

As in this abandoned life

I found a reason to live

With the garden of dandelions

#AtoZChallenge Day 3: C--Colors

Amidst the black of night

Full moon looked as a knight

Travelling with us

The entire journey ahead

Just then,

Black turned white on one side

Yellow & orange on the other

Revealing the umbrella of the greens

Immersed in the felicity of the dawn

We rode ahead into the plush of the woods

Amid the browns of the summer

We cooked our food, enjoyed our time

As the sun rode across

The soft cool breeze turned warm

And the fragrance of the woods

Mixed with the aroma of the food

The halcyon holiday

Mixed with colors

Of food, of joy, of nature, of life

Lived it fullest, though ephemeral in time

With the colors of life

Celebrated the festival of colors

Being close to self

Under the green opulent tree

#AtoZChallenge Day 2: B -- Beast

Wedding bells singing around

Festive lights marking celebration

Brighter than the light

Is the aura of the place

With liveliest smiles all around

I ran in pretending wary

Into the darkness of my room

Lest the world see

The bruises on my skin

The tears running down

Haunting moments rush back in dark

Of him standing atop and his cruel smile

Thumping me down, every time I rose

He killed me from within, my little life

And is it him I am married to?

That fateful day I met him first

I was told it was “HIM”

All was well until we met

In this very room

As he comforted his lust at once

I spoke, I cried, I shouted

Least I knew, I wasn’t heard

Each time he pushed himself

I roared of pain from deep within

But it is him I am married to..!!!

#AtoZChallenge: Day 1: A -- A Long Wait..!!

Gone are the days of roses and daffodils

Gone are the days of music of birds and rains

I stare at the distant hills

My heart wandering around

Searching for ‘me’

Lost in the speed of time

Dancing to the daily chores

Then I find her, my mate, my pen

Equally lost and awaiting my hint

As I touch, the breeze flew hard

And there were the dancing daffodils

Rustling music of the leaves

Flickering tunes of the raindrops

As if they were around since long

Just then I see

Inward

To realize, life wasn’t lost

It left to let me enjoy the bliss of solitude

Of being with me myself

I was lost in my beauty

And drunk in my splendor

Yet I held her tight

Determined not to let her go

For its her presence

That has brought me back

To my land of dreams

A place of love life and happiness

My pen, you were missed..!!!

Chaotic beauty..!!!

Sometimes the honking traffic
else the buzz of the A.C.
at times the tunes of music
or the painful silence

Amidst all the chaos

The sight of the clear sky
sound of the falling rain
feel of the cool breeze
smell of the drenching earth
taste of the steaming coffee
beauty of distant horizon
Brings back the yearning solace

Small li'l things...!!!

A beautiful dawn
A morning hug
A greeting smile
A steaming cup of tea
A bowl of home cooked food
A glimpse of mom
A sight of dad
A music of birds
A time with a friend
A nice right book
A scenic dusk
A good night kiss

All happiness in life
Comes in small packets
At a time, miss them not
