घर

इस घर पुराने ने बहुत कुछ नया देखा है,

चूने की पुताई और डिस्टेंपर का कोट भी देखा है। 

छोटे बड़े भाई का प्यार, उनकी लड़ाई भी देखी है,

छोटे बड़े भाई की पिटाई, उनकी लुगाई भी देखी है।


इस घर पुराने ने बहुत कुछ नया देखा है,

बेत का सोफा और कुशन लाउन्ज भी देखा है। 

सुबह की आरती, शाम का व्लॉग भी देखा है,

हार जाने का मातम, जश्न जीतों का भी देखा है। 


इस घर पुराने ने बहुत कुछ नया देखा है,

घड़े का सोंधा पानी और इंस्टेंट आइस क्यूब्ज़ भी देखा है।  

गिरना सीढ़ियों से, उभारना चोटों से भी देखा है,

पैरों पे आना, कन्धों पे जाना भी देखा है। 


इस घर पुराने ने बहुत कुछ नया देखा है,

मोमबत्ती की पढाई, लैपटॉप का प्रपोजल भी देखा है। 

कहानियां बनते भी देखा है, कहानियां लिखते भी देखा है,

समय गुज़रते भी देखा है, समय ठहरते भी देखा है।

Ode on an evanescent flower

In shades of pink and shades of white, As an armor of a plucky knight; At a certain point of day in time, Thou beauty of the summer, thou shine. Three days for the life you wait, Three days to come off your adolescent age; Three days until that green bud sprouts, Three days until your Beauty you flout. Awaiting a time long you once shine, At a morning that all, but you, whine; No sorrow no sign of meloncholy you show, Even though this life you live is miniscule of a blow. Thine head held high with pride, Thine salute to the sun, big smile; Thine beauty above all at prime, Thou Beauty of summer, thou shine. This is the pride that envies me above all, The pride in spite of a life so small; A day thou have, a day that's all, Then too you live life so gay, so tall. With the cheer thou spread across horizons wide, With colours which as the sun, or even bright; The lesson you teach across generations wide, A life lived large is a

The Midway

This is my entry to  https://housing.com/lookup I've always wondered what could be that one thing that one could do towards well being of others without letting go off one's own interests. That may sound a bit anti-noble but that is what is true. There is a certain mentality which does not let a person go an extra mile against one's own direction. That is a kind of optimism ice always been searching, ironically on my own track. But that search of the midway ended in the summer of 2009 while I was in high school. That day was just like any other day. I dressed up for school on my regular morning routine and left the house for the taxistand. I luckily found a taxi even before reaching the stand. When the taxi reached the stand, the driver got down to gather more passengers. A usual action done in the morning hours by the kind. I sat near the window, looking out and breathing the morning freshness. At that time, I saw something. Something that sent a chill down my spine a

NO woman, NO cry.

       I being a Marley fan always thought this to be a song made by a cool singer for a cool topic. Well, it's not cool to be offensive though to a certain womankind. But then today I read about what it really means. It says, "no woman? don't cry." in a certain Jamaican vocab of which Bob Marley was a container of, and this was written for his wife Rita Marley who underwent great austerities with him until he was not successful.       As the world celebrates the respect and love towards a a certain sect of Homo Sapiens usually characterized by long hair and a warm heart, I recall my life, pressing on the rewind button and counting those kind on my fingers. well, I certainly have very few a fingers to count that.       I remember her doing my hair, washing me, cooking for me, being my support, wiping my tears. She even fought a teacher for me. She who made a hell lot of sacrifices for me. She who even before my birth fought with her husband to send me to the best
