Silver Lining to a Cloudy Morning!



On my way to work on a cloudy morning these are some of the sights I saw….

My car driver washing the car with full might :P
Making the car shine like a new bride,
Expecting something new will happen his way today.
How I wish everyone could look ahead and keep driving!

My baby girl sitting with her father at the window,
Trying to juggle her eyes to see me,
Figuring out where am I headed to K
How I wish everyone could experience these wonderful moments of parenthood and value what our parents have done for us!

Father riding his little daughter to school,
Both of them focused in their own ways,
Daughter waiting to come back home and father thinking of the long day ahead of him.
How I wish everyone around was able to manage wearing different hats and wearing it well!

Two girls driving a car with windows down,
Letting the cool breeze hit their souls,
Chatting, gossiping, laughing probably about some talks at work.
How I wish everyone would be cheerful like this forever!

A small child working at a juice station,
Peeling off oranges in anger,
Thinking why in the hell am I here.
How I wish there was no child labor anywhere in this world!

A lady riding a bicycle in a saree and a scarf around her head,
Riding through a slope,
Wondering when will she hit the plains.
How I wish life was never a rough ride!

Police guards at a checkpoint all decked up,
Standing tall with their pouted bellies,
Wishing if they could have slept a little longer.
How I wish everyone would respect each other for whatever they are doing!

A carefree truck driver lying down on the concrete expressway,
Looking high up in the sky,
Thinking when will he meet his family again.
How I wish to see the bond between families!

A young girl walking down the lane,
Smiling and nodding looking at her mobile,
Probably waiting to meet the person who made her smile this morning.
How I wish to have the same smile of love on everyone around me!

People seated in a six seater van,
Old, young, rich, poor, fat, thin,
All’s fair in this van, no caste, no creed, no distinction.
How I wish to have such a world forever!

Workers standing in groups outside a company,
With half glass of tea in their hand,
Calculating how much of bread will they earn today.
How I wish we value and do justice to each penny we earn!

Guards welcoming all the employees at the gate,
With eyes down checking all the IDs opening gates for the vehicle,
Expecting everyone to check in soon so that they can relax a bit.
How I wish we raise our gratitude for everyone working hard to make our life better!

Such and many more instances on my way,
Everyone in their own pensive moods,
Wish I could pen them all.
I just find myself so fortunate,
To have able to see all of this and enjoy every bit of it,
And I thank God for the same!

When we look around
We understand there are so many people
Struggling in their lives, trying to achieve just their basic needs,
And here we sit whining about trivial things.

Life just makes one humble, content and happier!
I second that completely, but it’s just a matter of looking around!

Past a Pentennial!

Its been 5 years,when the journey began,
There were so many uncertainties far away at the horizon.

Studying abroad, staying alone, not knowing what is in store,
What will come my way, surprises to the galore.

But right from cafe coffee day till today,
We were always surrounded by friends who supported all the way.

Those late nights in Clemson, friday flowers,
Loitering around with friends for hours.

Assignments, projects, grades, semester,
on-campus jobs, assistanships making it all the better.

Secrets with roomates, late arrivals at venue,
Dressing alike, cooking together, was all so impromptu .

Favorite cuisines around campus,
Tiramisu, thai-asian food, spill the beans, craving for nothing less!

Best friends, close friends, friends for life,
'A' friend for life :)

Some somber memories too, that leave my heart pounding,
But revives with the most beautiful ones that keeps us binding.

Then came time to part ways,
Time to explore the craze.

Awaiting were some tough times,
But we all sailed through it with smiles.

New place, new jobs, new friends,
The process that never ends.

Opt, H1s, job securities,
Demanding for greater sincerities.

Some of us got accompanied by their soul mates in the ride,
Which made it easier to glide.

Some of us are still looking for the one,
Who will make their life more fun.

Cherishing every piece of the memory,
That make my eyes a little shimmery!


- Cheers to all of them who have been a part of this ride :))

Grateful!

its been a while I wrote
never got a change to quote

today since I found some time to think
i sit down and blot some ink

I look around me and see how beautiful everything is
I look around and see how loving everyone is

how much my loved ones care for me
how much my soul longs for me

Today I take some time to Thank God for everything
Everything in place for me to swing

Thank god for blissed life
And waiting for more to arrive :)

Today...

Today the day is not bright,
Neither there are clouds,
But today there are rush emotions,
Clouding and brightening my heart in all directions.

There are no leaves on the trees,
Neither there are blossoms around,
But today there are rush of thoughts,
Rustling and blooming in my mind that stalks.

I cannot see the sun,
Neither can I see the moon,
But today there are rush of moments,
Rising and setting through my eyes that so very meant.

We are not together,
Neither are we apart,
But there is a rush of love,
Binding and leaving my soul that rises above!

tu ahes tar

Tu ahes tar majja yete
Tu ahes tar mast cooking suchte
Tu ahes tar ek veglach utsaah asto
Tu ahes tar ek veglach naad asto
Tu ahes tar sajavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar arshaat pahavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar eka payavar naachavasa vaatate
Tu ahes tar karkash avajathi gavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar achanak pootkun hasavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar achanak laajavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar unch udavasa vatate
Tu ahes tar jag jinkavasa vatate

“Abhi tu ahes mhanunch mi ahe”
Asa nehmi vaatun ghyavasa vatate

Tu ahes tar majja yete
Tu ahes tar mast cooking suchte
Tu ahes tar ek veglach utsaah asto
Tu ahes tar ek veglach naad asto
Tu ahes tar sajavasa vatate

konitari mast tel lavun massage karun dyavasa vatate
ahaa...fakt araam karavasa vatatey...
nusta ani nusta araam karavasa vatatey...
