Decades
Teens went and twenties came, What did I lose and what did I gain? lost some attitude and anger, gained confidence and candor. Twenties went and thirties came, What did I lose and what did I gain? lost some ideals and insecurities, gained experiences and responsibilities. Thirties went and forties came, What did I lose…
Tired
Some days, I am tired of everything, nothing in particular, yet anything, routines of morning and evening, tasks in general and during. What should I do? change my thinking or my to-do. may be, I will need to do both, thoughts and actions to move forth. Feelings are important to set the stage, but doing…
Immigrants
We came to the promised land, With dreams and an education, But on little else to start and stand, There was no room for distraction. Life was no bed of roses, Tests came at regular doses, From accent and appearance, To culture and clearance. Many challenges were faced, New paths traced. New rules braced, Networks…
Untidy Home
Blankets on the couch, where members slouch, chocolate stains in nooks and pouch, incite some anger and insincere ouch! I like this chaos and mess, though somedays I wish it’s less, I know the price of cleanliness, abhor the thought of orderliness. Unpicked shirts, trousers and sock(s), half closed drawers that mock, bathroom shout for…
Living in Hearts
The query was simple, Where do you live? My address as an answer was ample, But, that was not all I could give. With some I share a home, With others, a deep connection, I live in their hearts and mind, In thoughts loving, sweet and kind. They live in mine, I might not with…
White Beauty
White blanket has enveloped everything, Hills, ground, trees, roofs of building(s), Pristine white is a beauty to behold, Nature’s wonders in the chill and cold. Seeing the snow fall, Is like speaking in a drawl, Leaves me in thrall, Of nature’s bounty above all. The breathtaking milieu appeals silently, Bestowing gifts abundantly, Revealing power of…
You and Me
I like you. But cannot be you. You are you, But, I am not you. I admire you. But, I cannot be you. I am me. Flawed and unique. I take pride in my identity, My imperfect entity. My quirks and my insanity, My ways and my civility. I hear you. Your fears and cheers.…
Failed promise
He said- “I am sorry,” did not intend to cause anger or worry, raised his voice/hand once more, but said, will not happen anymore. Once again a false assurance, Or will he keep his words and patience. Triggers in life will not end, I can wait and pretend. Think of ways to prevent his reactions,…
Method to Madness
Is there a method to creative writing? does it start with nail biting? moving from doubting to deliberating, to an actual penning or typing. I begin with observing, continuing with thinking and reflecting, Word flow and scribbling, And finally to subject linking. Observation is very important, Without it, all else can stay latent. Listening to…
Children in the Park
Children in a park, Are a happiness spark, Seeing them walk, wander or wonder Lift up spirits from down under. Happiness at the kick of a ball, Runs from one to the next stall. Amidst a few caution call, And some small brawl. Giggles on a swing, Or sand drawing of a ring, Exploration of…
