“It’s ok grandma. I’ll be fine. You HAVE TO GO & rest now”
A cute little human presence gave respite to the soul
when her sudden demise disrupted her peace.

Materialistic Mayhem
Light appearing at end of the tunnel, I ran towards it blissfully.
Realization hit me eventually when it railroaded me skillfully.
Rotten thoughts, infected logics, even snatching the reins of ethics.
Obnoxious brains decaying goodness along with it’s robust magic
Couldn’t stand righteousness, these conniving creatures plotted schemes
Being one of an honest kind became their bitter distant dream
They struggled relentlessly to exterminate me like a pest,
But the Pearl already underwent her share of pain to be a glorious Gem.
Happy Diwali
One smile,
Two hands
Fed hundred mouths
Divine Light shone brighter
than any burning cracker could…
Happy Diwali Folks
Survival
Slaughtered,
Butchered,
Destroyed,
They tried hard but could never kill his poetry.
Survival– the road that seems almost invisible buried beneath thousand of layers of Hope.
The Pending Kiss
He kept pulling
her close,
Tempting to join him
she lurched
everytime she saw him.
Dancing Tides secretly
promising the Moon their pending kiss.
Risk that Fall
When life
puts you in a cage
Be a butterfly.
Flutter open your doors
Leaving a colorful imprints
In it’s hands.
Humans be like:
Man 1: Hey! I have been seeing you struggling for a long time. May I help.
Man 2 {beamingly} : Sure. Can you?
M1 : Certainly. I will see what I can do.
[M2 meanwhile struggles really hard and almost achieve his goal]
M1 {sarcastically} : You yourself have done a lot without my help. Why would you need me now anyway. Seems like you didn’t trust me enough.
M2 {genuinely} : No! No, Friend. I trusted you but I didn’t want to be all dependent on you. I HAD to make up the leeway to keep my pride. But truly I AM grateful to you for even offering help in my hard times. I will always appreciate that. Thanks and do let me know if could be of any help to you. I would love to be.
{Smilingly, he walks away}
M1 {To himself} : YOU!!! YOU WILL HELP ME?
Yeah! Blow your own trumpet now. Disgraceful fellows. Why would ask for help anyway. I don’t understand how did he manage it himself to come up to this level. Totally unbelievable. I am sure somebody would have backed him up and that snobbish liar isn’t telling me the name. No one can struggle that much. I know I couldn’t in my past. Everyone needs a lifting hand. I was waiting for him to flatter me but NO. He didn’t even charm me enough, didn’t buy me any gifts and yet I was ready to help him. Why should I? and that too for free?
Well! Now I am gonna see how far can he go on his own. I am going to set zillions of roadblock in all his assignments, might even snatch away his supporters. I will not let him accomplish anything and then I will see how he doesn’t come up to me crawling and begging to be helped.

A Frozen Bubble
You know what a frozen bubble say:
“Giving up is such a cliché“
—
I was born to be destroyed in a moment
And here I’m, standing against my opponent
I trap air through my thin walls
That very day, the Mighty wind is appalled.
All the ingredients formed me perfectly
Colorful, Chromatic, beautifully hued; having to vanish in a jiff, I would die artfully
Before I could burst, I see the ice crystals dancing on my surface
Ensuingly I knew I was always meant to last longer with an undying grace
It started a war. I wasn’t the one to be tamed.
DAMN! I can freeze TIME. This proud moment unarguably was meant to be acclaimed.
