Pratcat needs just one life

Many happy returns of the day my love

2011-06-20T13:56:00.002+05:30

Hi S.,

Wish you a wonderful birthday my love. May this be the best year of your life so far !! Following is the something i want to say before i present you the marriage certificate that you wanted !!

On your birthday,

I want to declare,

I love you very much,

And will always take your care!!

I take this day,

To say to the world,

With my Bappa as my witness,

And in presence of the five elements!!

That,

I will always love you,

in health and in sickness,

not just when you are happy,

but even when you are sad and in bed..

I might not give you,

All the wealth in the world,

But will ensure you get enough,

To never ask for more or feel insecure..

I won’ t say,

you will never ever cry,

But I definitely be there,

To make you smile..

I wont go and get you the moon,

But when you are sitting on the couch,

And ask me to,

I will get up and get you a spoon!!

I don’t say,

I will immerse you in diamonds,

But everyday I will help you,

in daily household chores,

Like washing utensils, ironing, cleaning floors,

And all such boring everyday works..

And if ever in any of the words I said above,

I manage to falter in carrying them out,

I certify this to you,

That by giving this registered certificate,

You can slap it on my face,

And remind it to me,

Whenever I try to deny,

Any of my promises,
made in the above statements!!

Yours and always yours,

A month of bliss!!

2011-04-18T12:00:00.000+05:30

It’s a month now,

That a woman swept me off me feet..

Since i met my Angel,

Its been an amazing ride,

of excitement and peace..

The similarities are striking,

Between me and her,

Yet we both,

Are,

Individuals !!!

Still don’t believe it, Jaan,

It's been, just a bit over a month,

How soon has my world been,

Completely turned..

Like the invading flood,

Of a monsoon river in full flow,

You completely swamped me,

Made me warm, made me glow.

I can taste you,

I can inhale you,

I can feel you,

I can be you,

Jaan, I can actually see the entire future,

That I am gonna spend with you !

Never had I expected,

That will be so in love,

Never did I feel,

That the world already possessed,

My gift from above!!

And finally you came,

My love...13^th of March 2011 is the date!

I saw you walk to me,

On the steps of a station,

That served the great Western railways!!

Oh, what an evening!!

The more I knew you,

The more we sat there;

The more we spoke,

The more I felt,

The more I laughed inside,

The more I was impressed,

The more I saw,

The more I loved those moments,

My one...

Finally... finally.. finally... presented herself.

As if a part of my soul

That was lost, was found

You made my life..

So full of fun... so full of sound

( phone calls na :P )

Not that I was sad, when you weren’t there,

You know me, I don’t have time to despair,

But there was always a want,

That would flood my heart,

When will I call the one,

Who will only be mine,

My sweetheart !!

As always,

I want to thank you,

For being my love,

For being my life,

And just like the day,

I requested you to be my wife,

This day again, I propose,

Come, celebrate with me,

Our first sighting’s,

One month anniversary!!!

Sim.... my Love; Always and Ever!!

2010-01-23T02:03:00.001+05:30

Its been 6 months now,

but still I miss you so much;

I wish I could have you back,

but I guess you are better off,

wherever you are at!!

You have taught me so much

in your own special ways,

about love and care,

about patience and pain!!

I can still see your eyes,

looking at me,

changing their expression;

depending on your moods and whims!!

You loved me,

in your own typical way,

that only the smell of food,

or your dread of me,

could ever sway

(oh and yes baths as well)

Cant blame your dread of me,

for I was still learning,

how to be patient,

or be more understanding!!

And although your (apparent) selfishness

pissed me off many times,

I realise those were your instincts,

guiding you and your actions alike!!

You were smart

and you had way better understanding than me;

I wish I was more patient

or could have more time to correct my guilt!!

Anyways all I could say

my sweet little Piloo today

I will always love you

and I really really miss you everyday...

To the best friend I never had..

Sim, Simudi, Simu, Piloo...Muaaaaaah

Cheers!!

2009-01-09T07:04:00.004+05:30

Hmmm… I am bored..
to say the same thing again,
that this is the most significant birthday,
since the chain began!!!

So something new;
Maybe a bit of introspection,
on what’s the significance,
in my life of your presence.

When we first met,
or rather were aware of our presence,
I wasn’t very intrigued,
nor greatly charmed by the experience!!
(Was my usual stupid self of course)

But in my defence,
the stars weren’t really on my side either,
weren’t the best of times,
a miserable and messed up mind.

And then you breezed in..
with your Hyena smile and bubbling charm,
envy of any tooth paste model,
but for my hurt soul; a soothing balm!!

Since…….
We have come such a long way,
a shared orange, a bench and a class,
it seems like yesterday...

Took a yellow-black chariot;
adjoining the sea, by banks of holiness,
A toast sandwich, was it?
the first we shared???

Followed by a 5 stars’ neighboring deity,
A birthday made special,
with a gift of clothing and reds;
surprise of latter, spoiled by an useless attendant!!!
(That was fun... hehehehehee)

Started with a “car race”
followed by “you only”
Life cant be better than “less sugar”
even if we properly plan it.

Exams and studies,
of pohas and tea.
First visit,
unsurprisingly with minimal study..

Next junction (later a regular routine),
Holiest of holy places in the city,
A danav seating amongst spirituality,
Hmmm…
amazing conviction to make me.

Festival of lights,
celebrated with the coming of the prince!!
One of the precursors of merging,
by exchange of metallic things!!!
An occasion to celebrate,
in presence of seas and the lord’s name,
but blemished by misunderstandings,
Significantly proportionate.. (idiot)

Change of seasons,
and last digits of a regularly used detail,
Yet you made out time,
to congratulate both ourselves (nice)

The first birthday,
Sad, yet happy;
Although wasn’t involved anywhere,
yet your happiness was all that mattered that day.

Onwards to the counterpart,
Oh what a day!!!!
Though a waltz wouldn’t have killed;
yet the rest was much more than what I expected.

August for an august occasion,
Friendship celebrated,
A panda was a topping;
to a pearl’s happiness!!!

The second festival of lights,
came and went swift,
Significantly bringing with it,
A new dwelling as its gift..

And here we are at another of memory’s page,
an occasion to celebrate,
Maybe the last one together,
Coz not sure if you would remember me for the next!!
(Hehehehee.. some senti…)

So that was it,
A journey of a lifetime,
Highlights at the end of a game,
showing the most memorable of moments...
I am sure,
I forgot a few experiences,
You would want to add to this,
Or maybe think about them to say the very least...

It hasn’t been smooth sailing of course
Most of it, thanks to your stupidity (hehehee);
But I would live it again,
if God offered it to me!!

As much as I don’t want it to,
I think these words will merely remain,
A few years hence,
I am confident you will forget them..
I hope not.. I really don’t want it to,
But somehow I still feel the arrival of new,
would be given way,
by deleting the old few!!

No matter what; we live in the present,
and we shall celebrate in it as well,
Who know what future has in store,
so lets have a blast today!!!

As usual I might look bhangi,
and you the fairy princess,
Yet its still a match made in heavens,
for that’s how strong our friendship currently is...

In a few months, your course of life will completely change,
Finally united in love,
You will depart,
Saying farewell;
And Believe me.. I will be the most happiest,
My glowing princess in the arms of her prince,
Dark knight waving to you, i will salute your plane
Wishing you a very very very very happy life ahead..

Love has an example!!!

2009-01-06T01:56:00.019+05:30

So finally it had to appear in this space..
An ode to my friends, in their first few special days..
And no, I aint tired of repeating it,
"That" was the one of “the” experiences!!!

I can still feel the buzz in me,
Contagious excitement;
Feel so feverish!!!
But I ain't complaining…
(In fact am loving it... heeehaaaa...)

I wanted to enjoy..
I wanted to rock..
God is my witness,
I enjoyed and I rocked!!!
Sounds silly..
but those are my true feelings,
not meant for anyone else,
just for my friends: Agie & Vivi Fernandes
(hehehehe got it in somehow)

Sometimes in life..
you come across occurrences;
a coincidence of gigantic proportions,
or just a para on Destiny’s pages..

whatever you may choose to call them,
those are moments in life,
when everything feels,
absolutely perfect.. exactly right..

(like your entire love story has been, culminating in the perfect marriage)

Yes I am drunk,
drunk in your happiness,
drunk in your love,
drunk in your nataks,
your whims, your crazy debates..
Frankly; even in my deliberations with myself,
I always wanted love to be proven;
wanted a true example to say:
"Love, still exists today.."

Honestly, I believed,
love died with our parents generation;
Love not desire,
as Fr. Saby said in his sermon.
I really thought it was actually dead,
But then “hope” comes calling,
through the occasion,
of your marriage..

By God I want this to succeed,
I want you to succeed;
maybe for my own selfish motives,
that I want you both, forever, as my buddies..

Kaala tika!!
Lest my own nazar should spoil this Afsana,
God bless you both my friends..
My dearest Agnello and my darling Viviana..

Finally as all have to give,
a piece of their mind;
mine may still be kaccha,
(am referring to my mind, Vivi, my mind only)
so accept it with some wine / whine..
(Maybe that tequila wine’s still in the system.. hehehehehe)

Hmm.. so Baba Patrie says:
(Nothing new actually)
Now, I feel, comes,
the most difficult part in a relationship,
Living together, with one another,
Learning unknown things about the other..
Some adjustments,
Some sacrifices,
Some give and take, (more of give and less of take always helps)
a lot of trust and lots and lots of faith..

I have complete faith in you both,
Coz I have seen both of you so close,
Yet “surprise” is not very hard to find,
in this world of continuously changing lifestyles..

In a marriage, love is never the problem..
its always the little niggles that make no sense,
and as lucky as you are to have each other;
there isn’t a simple heart-to-heart talk,
that can’t solve these headaches..

That’s it… I am done..
But I am still drunk..

God!! if only, any of the drinks,
could have such an intoxicating effect,
I wouldn’t mind being called a drunkard,
the new Dev D, singing Emotional Atyachaar everywhere!!!
(It’s a song in the movie Dev D.. just in case)

So finally this ode ends..
And once again I wish you the very best!!
God bless you!!!
Hope I can find someone soon,
so we can double date… what say?? heeehaaaa

See ya soon lovers…

A Story.....

2008-10-16T11:28:00.002+05:30

A story....

No... this aint a fairy tale,
coz they never happen;
Neither is this a soap opera;
nor a multi starrer;
it aint a prehistoric epic;
a futuristic adventure;
or any of recent sleazy flicks;
neither short films with experimental theatrics.

This is a Journey,
a journey we want you to join us in,
in celebrating, enjoying, rejoicing;
of a few endings and a new beginning!!!

Take 1
We start with a jolly young boy;
misspelled Angel;
Ambition and big dreams;
An innocent heart,
an ideal kid,
most parents would ask.

Playing football;
Dancing when occasion called;
Altar boy;
Dreamt of becoming successful and well off.

Take 2
An innocent simple girl;
Vivaciousness personified, with a calm face,
nurtured under protective guidance,
A beauty blooming,
full of charm and grace.

Studious, homely,
obedient, dutiful,
happy with what she is,
untouched by needs of becoming,
what her morally corrupt peers dreamt of being.

Take 3
St. Blaise,
the patron saint of Wild animals!!!
what's he doing here ???
in this tale of innocent mortals?

Oh yes.. yes yes..
he plays a very important indeed;
as this story happens,
in his anointed house, his dwelling.

Animals,
some wild, some tame,
were abled and trained
building their futures, dreams,
lives & relationships at this place.

In his house,
these two halves met.
An extrovert,
with care at his feet;
The other confident,
yet keeping her advice to herself.

On these hallowed grounds,
they befriended,
realised,
they were meant,
to be more than friends!!!

Destiny had decided,
exactly what the other needed;
and who can deny her,
if she says;
even hell freezes!!!

Take 4
Yet its never is, as easy as it seems,
Destiny likes to play her own cards;
Between come Oceans and responsibilities,
ambitions to be fulfilled by selfless hearts!!

Restless;
they endured where many fail,
surviving those days;
they made it together,
without any scars or scares.

At times patience din't feel like a virtue;
Tears and complaints;
Misery and pain;
All seemed to be winning against,
Patience's feeble solace.
Love had to bear,
a seat next to sadness,
and all seemed a distant dream,
that felt like a never ending nightmare!!!

Yet they pulled through,
responsible and mature,
love's victory,
never looked sweeter than their example.

Overcoming all odds;
fulfilling ambitions;
attending responsibilities;
theirs was a wonderful triumph,
a beautiful victory;
of Love over Excuses.

Even fairy tales would now,
start to dread,
that true tales are beginning,
to have endings with
"Lived happily ever after" in them!!!

Take5
Now what could be next??
well did you think, this was the end?
Oh no, you are so wrong,
here starts,
a new beginning, my friend.

The two main leads,
Viviana and Agnel;
in a well decked, furnished cruise,
on the banks of matrimony,
they wait to set sail.

They need a push,
along with your blessings and love,
to start this next stage,
of an interesting journey
that now you have become part of.

The venue:
St. Blaise church.
January 04th 2009.
please join them,
to partake their celebration!!!

We want you to be there,
with your family and friends,
to celebrate their union,
their love, their final triumph,
over distance, oceans and continents

Back to old days

2008-08-21T06:48:00.004+05:30

It was like destiny trying,
to play spoilsport;
How can a message not reach,
when all others manage to come home?

Another day of frustration,
irritation and anger, I thought,
Oh! why did things come to this,
I really know not?

But I had made up mind,
today would be different;
No matter my irritation,
I will not lose my temper.

Waited on a newly constructed way,
for almost an hour,
as usual you were late,
as usual bus stop was my friend.

No response to calls,
No answer to any message;
Shut up!!! Frustration,
Today you aint gonna be allowed,
to creep in anywhere.

And then alas in a chariot,
yellow and black;
you come, as if hurriedly dressed,
unkempt hair and not your usual well kept self.

Not bad.. though not bad did you look,
Yet some evidence of useless pursuits,
seemed to adorn,
your facial outlook.

A gift… hmmm,
What an expression!!!
Your dazzling 32’s,
giving the gift a matching combination..

Wanted it to be surrounded,
in a place, we first met;
but your boring adventures with new friends,
overshadowed all emotional attachment.

So a new place,
for first time explored;
coupled with your favorite past time,
sure to make you happy without fail.

A banana sacrificed,
to make you feel in heaven;
A latte… yuk,
not a hint of sugar, though, the place, "Magnificent!!!"

Capturing you,
in your various moods;
A past time unlike any,
for your histrionics, to be let loose.

An animal and martial arts!!
to top that as cartoon,
Nice for a change, I say,
A rare similarity in our choices,
so who am I to complain?

A great success;
Overall it was wonderful,
I think we had rocking time,
Credit goes to me, you can accept !!

But frankly,
After a long long time,
I think my lost friend,
was finally by my side..

Hardly any time,
Before we shall be oceans apart;
so I want it to be the happiest time between us,
God knows if you would even remember, once you are so far!!

Remember what I have said,
Build a spare room for me,
keep it well furnished,
with things that suit my personality.

Locate it in a nice place,
And send me first class tickets;
And ask the cook to learn some good dishes,
(heeheheehehee, I just liked this line so much)
And ask the cook to learn some good dishes,
So that I shouldn’t feel any kami!!

Learn driving, so that you can chauffer me around,
And make some beautiful friends,
So that when I come there,
with them I can hang out..

Yeah, I might spare some time for you too,
You don’t have to beg,
After all you know who you are
You are my………………….

Amu's back!!!!

2008-08-11T20:42:00.003+05:30

Finally, I think, she is back,
The One with an impish laugh,
A unique creature,
Someone I would trust with my life, very close to my heart!!!

I missed you so much,
Don’t know why you were lost;
Maybe my stupidity, (of course naa)
Or maybe something you dint share with me at all..

I wished you were as confident of me,
as I was of you,
at least tried me once,
trusted me, as I trust you.

Maybe I dint try hard enough,
or ignored you, your pain;
whatever the reasons,
am just glad, that you are back again.

Keep smiling like this,
Always be happy;
You are one of the rays in my life,
that makes it worth living.

Once in a while, I might forget “your” limits,
don't let your lack of humor, cloud your brains,
Am just teasing you, my dear
Remember!! I am your best friend!!! (hehehehe)

I don’t even want to say it,
lest your happiness ko lag jaye meri nazar,
but always keep smiling,
and hope we are always there for one another.

One day when you become old,
no teeth, no hair,
don’t you worry my friend, though I might be handsome,
You can still be my date…

I might have to take you out on a wheelchair,
Sacrifice chicken for your fast on that day;
or maybe even try Gavar, (yuck)
Yeah.. tere liye.. for you, my friend..

Its okay, you can give me as many gaalis as you like,
curse me or wish for misery in my life,
Yet you were always treasured,
You are still the best,
and always will remain, until my last breath…

Missed you so much… thanks for being back yaar!!!

Its so bad

2008-07-13T03:43:00.002+05:30

Why do i miss you so?
I dont want to, I really dont
but even in midst of all,
you somehow manage to
evade my thoughts...

Can things
change so soon
dint even miss me,
or felt a thing?
Or maybe you did
but under sense of revenge
dint want to be the one
to take the first step

naah... you aint that sort
i guess it must be the usual
get involved in something so much
simply forget everything else exists in this world

i guess i will learn
and i hope i learn it soon
i have to, coz it really hurts..
need to find something that fills this vacuum...

Oh where are you
when shalt you be with me
somebody who will engulf me
wont make me feel lonely...

Really bad.....

Goodbye......

2008-07-10T17:57:00.001+05:30

Why do i waste my time,
on useless things;
giving love,
towards undeserved feelings!!!

why am i so taken in,
by tempting voices,
that say so much,
but dont think, mean anything...

when i am in heaven..
i want you to be there..
but is that something..
you really care???

it reflects in your behaviour
you live for the moment
to hell with everything
i will enjoy with whatever is given

Maybe i too should be selfish
why be bothered...
i dont need you
when your image is crowded out by others...

its all gone, things have changed..
and i guess no point cribbing..
even i have a life..
and should be moving on with it..

Dont think it will ever mean anything..
beyond the first few minutes..
again we will repeat..
the same old sorry scene..

it hurts.. and i am tired of being
i am tired of excuses..
trust is all gone..
though still oveshadowed by "that" feeling..

Wish it hadnt happened..
i really really wish it hadnt..
but now nothing helps..
goodbye my dear ..............

a tired song

2008-05-26T02:01:00.000+05:30

so tired i am
running everyday
work work work
though i cant really complain

no talk, no voice
no sound, no noise
just want to stay like this,
in your arms for a while...

irritated and angry,
i try not to be
yet instances, where i lack,
unknowingly upset me

i want you to have fun
i want you to be free
yet i want to be in every joy
together, you and me...

impossible as it is
life and its funny tricks
dont know when you will be with me
when i can kiss those lips

only heartbeats
and sound of you breathing
hair against my cheeks
fingers clasped, pleading; dont leave me!!!

let me lay in your lap
looking at your face for a while
i just want to be with you
your presence will refresh my life...

Un Aie Thaa

2008-05-26T01:57:00.003+05:30

With an impish smile,
that give her Chinese eyes;
she breezed in my world,
bold, loud and bright...

Perceptions weren't right, things looked wrong,
Oh, what a life's lesson!!!
gifts wrapped are not revealed,
unless you open the paper...

So, lo and behold!!
there she was,
a brash yet amazing person,
with unique beauty, character and nature...

Unlikely yet true,
the chemistry was surprisingly perfect,
like long lost twins,
few chromosomes missing...

From Shrek to Terminal;
and songs to chicken;
and girls to sixth sense;
so many things.. hmmm... planned in heaven?

Yet there was difference,
Oh damn.. i am really impressed,
a cute little angel,
yeah.. brain needs some dettol and phenyl..

but then in her own unique way,
she carved her own place,
gave me so many wonderful gifts,
memories; recurring irritations as well..

Yes.. i wouldn't die,
if she hadn't come in my life,
though the color,
would certainly have been less bright..
Today you are,
one of the precious gifts in my life,
worth every ounce of that pint sized body,
Rani Mukherjee of Abhishek's life???
(sad one naa... i know).. But

Thank you so much,
for being so "YOU"!!
for being such a pearl,
like your favorite quote
"Not a normal girl"...

In a few years time,
life will change;
locations and worlds,
and people and places,
Maybe, as is both of our nature
we might not be in touch,
yet when i remember,
Oh Amnesiac, i will remember...
Un Aie thaa, the bold and the brave!!!

A Face

2008-05-05T01:02:00.005+05:30

Rolling lazily,
aimless..........
was wandering through the maze of time,
stored on this box... this dear friend of mine!!

And there you are...
so beautiful, so pretty,
thank you God,
that I am so lucky!!!

Those thick eyelashes crowning almond eyes;
an exquisitely carved nose; expressive eyebrows;
one of God's most patient designs,
on his favorite drawing board.

But actually it is,
the shy expression on your face,
words fall short,
if i were to try and explain!!!
Hidden amongst,
long dainty fingers,
hiding your face,
with a mocking gesture....
and a mischievous smile,
through the fingers, I spy,
a deity about to grace her devotee,
who waited his entire life, to see her and die!!!

Oh how lucky I feel,
I just have to wish you right now,
so I send you a message,
breaking my own vow.....

I hope you receive it,
with a smile on your face,
Coz in one sound it appreciates,
you being a rainbow in my life,
of colors and sounds and beautiful fragrances

One week of lifetime

2008-05-05T00:14:00.004+05:30

Not even a week
and things got so bad
words said, meanings meant,
pierced, straight through my heart....

Like poison, the words,
seeped through my brain...
echoing, reflecting
inflicting such misery, such horrible pain!!!

Did it have to be so bad?
was it really so out of control?
yet me, the miserable one
crying for someone,
who finally wont even be my own???

Tried I did to be
what I myself expected of you,
your things, my friend
were always priority
Alas we differ
things we differently see
there are just too many flowers in your garden
cant expect you to tend each and every...

A wise man once said
Things you desire
for you, if they are meant
will return to you
when freed of their chains

So I will wait...
Or else, we are back
to the same old base
another broken heart,
another ruptured vein

Oh where are you Ann
I miss you so
would be hard to compete against your memory
Yet, your words,
never hurt... or gave me sorrow....

A little something for my princess

2008-04-27T02:43:00.003+05:30

And to you my princess;
things lately haven’t been all sweet,
yet we don’t need to tell,
for each other, what our friendship means...

We both are today,
in an important phase of our lives;
these next few years,
will decide where and how we live, we survive..

And maybe now we need each other,
more than ever;
me to keep you grounded, (you can deny it of course)
and you to fuel my ambitions.

It is very rare to have a friend,
so trustworthy, so dear,
who, inspite of all her irritating qualities,
manages to be so near.

Still really surprised,
that its lasted so long;
very few things we have in common,
me so high up and you downtrodden!!!

Yet somehow, some stupid thing,
still binds us;
Yes… sometimes you do irritate a lot,
so much that I feel…
why the hell I give you so much bhaav????
yet somehow, with your idiotic keedas;
you manage to calm my anger
cant help it.. you are a princess; sweet and surreal!!!

And God knows how you have managed,
to survive my nature;
maybe I am just too perfect,
that you must be in awe and so you persevere.

yeah, maybe you cant help it…
I do have that effect,
you can praise me sometimes,
I don’t mind you being honest.

Chal.. natak… now don’t start those phrases….
Give me that princess smile,
that melted,
the entire Ice Age!!!

Oh come on… everytime you cant expect something nice,
You know everything is reflected in what I write,
and you also know,
what you mean to me,
so I am sure,
you will recognize,
why this is, how it is, rey idiot…
a little something,
with no meaning… hehehehehehe

The wait for my Queen

2008-04-27T01:03:00.002+05:30

I don’t know when we meet,
or how you shalt be;
Oh, one that matters,
when shall we meet??????

I long to be,
in your cozy embrace,
searching eyes,
finally….
strong enough to hold my gaze…

Can see the quiver,
on your lips;
a thirsty drifter in parched deserts,
stumbles on an oasis...

Velvet fingers
entwined round mine;
Grasping them tightly,
Saying….
Don’t ever leave me… my love!!!
Always be by my side….

And that fragrance,
God save me.. a voiceless scream…
tickles my every nerve,
ignites every atom,
every essence in my being…

Oh how could I have survived???
All alone so long;
So many things we missed,
in this theater of harsh realities.

But I promise…
That moment.. that moment we meet,
we will return to our lonely abode,
in our thoughts, our dreams..
the place where only you and me shall be
Our imagination, our world, only you and me...

I wait for you,
I wait for you,
I wait for you,
I wait for you,

Oh… how…… I wait for you… My Queen…..

Best wishes for the day my princess

2008-01-09T00:00:00.000+05:30

Finally its that day..
Though afsos!! I wished I could personally say,
But you, I am sure, will understand,
I would mean it from the bottom of my heart..

First day of your new year,
has come for first time, since we’ve been friends
Yet I cant wish you,
cant call, cant say...
Haay...

But theek hai yaar,
you are, where you should be,
Hope you are happy and having a blast,
Tumhari khushi... mai hi meri khushi…

Your arrival in my life,
was like a fresh summer breeze,
Soothing and refreshing,
Easing all that was disgusting...
In this pathetic living,
Like a poison slowly killing me,
Seeping and eating me from inside,
Oh princess thanks for being there yaar!!!

Leave that...

I can imagine that sly look creep in your eyes,
your mischievous grin,
accentuating expectant face of thine,
haan baba!!! you will get your gift
when someday, somehow, we manage to meet..

I can imagine you glowing,
Especially now, with your prince,
In that best pinky pink
OH man!!! I really wish I could see..

But anyways... for this special day
I wish you today,
God bless you; your prince;
your family; every significant person,
that is special for you in any way!!!

May this year be,
the best among those that have been so far;
All the plans you decided this year,
May they wonderfully succeed
and give you more than you asked for

I pray all your prince’s dreams come true,
Hopefully your Love takes it next step,
Jai Mata Di, my princess!!!
Even though we don’t remain that close,
You remain happy and content in your planned cozy nest...

Have a great year princess

whatever......

2007-10-31T10:48:00.000+05:30

To hell with all worries, and hell with all fights,
to hell with all our differences...
to hell with why we disagree; why i think you are not right...
whenever i remember you...
i will try to think
of all the fun, all the good times...

You irritate me... frustrate me...
make me go mad...
and then you come up with something...
something so stupidly nice..
and i answer my own questions...
toh cat...now you know why...

Wish some things dont happen..
wish you dont do the thing i hate most in my life
and wish.... well whatever...
it doesnt matter that much,
you are responsible for your actions...
to me, you dont have to justify...

And then life doesnt always happen
the way you want it to..
things dont turn up the way,
you wished that they do...
so cat... take up only the good things..
try and forget all thats bad..
think of your friends smile
and forget what you think are their crimes......

Beete Lamhein

2007-10-10T12:58:00.000+05:30

One of the best songs I have ever heard..... Hats off to the person who conceptualised this song...

Dard mein.... bhi yeh lab...... muskura jaate hai...
Beete lamhein humein........ jab bhi yaad aate hai
Dard mein.... bhi yeh lab...... muskura jaate hai
Beete lamhein...... humein........ jab bhi yaad aate hai

Chand lamhaat ke vaaste.... hi sahi
Muskura kar mili thi mujhe zindagi
Chand lamhaat ke vaaste...... hi sahi
Muskura kar mili thi mujhe zindagi

Teri aagosh mein...... din the mere kate
Teri baaahon mein thi meri raatien kati

Aaj bhi jab woh pal.... mujhko yaad aate hain
Dil se saare gumo ko bhoola jate hai
Dard mein bhi yeh lab........ muskura jaate hai
Beete lamhein..... humein........ jab bhi yaad aate hai

Kis kadar tez raftaar thi zindagi....
keh kahein har taraf.... thi khushi hi khushi...
Kis kadar tez raftaaaar thi zindagi....
keh kahein har taraf.... thi khushi hi khushi...

Maine jis din kahi... pyaar ki baat thi
Ruk gayi thi achanak woh behti nadi....

Aaj bhi jab woh din...... mujhko yaad aate hai
Guzare lamhein zehen mai...... ubhar aate hai
Dard mein bhi yeh lab........ muskura jaate hai
Beete lamhein..... humein........ jab bhi yaad aate hai

Mere kandhein pe seer ko jhukana Tera
Mere sene mein khud ko chupana teraa
Mere kandhein pe seer ko jhukana Tera
Mere sene mein khud ko chupana teraa

Aake meri panaho mein shaam-o-seher
Kanch ki tarah woh toot jana tera

Aaj bhi jab woh manzar nazar aate hai
Dil ki viraniyon ko mita jaate hai

Dard mein bhi yeh lab muskura jaate hai
Beet lamhein humein jab bhi yaad aate hai

Dard Mein …..Beete lamheinnnnn
Dard Meinnnnnnnnnnnnn …..Beete lamheinnnnn

Goddddddddddddd Awesome... just an awesome song...

Last days of Praan...

2007-09-05T11:34:00.000+05:30

Somehow miss you a lot these days,
coz you are very unique,
an experiment, a medium..
makes me proud,
Of me brain..

But as usual is the case in life,
everything has, an expiry date,
and you too will soon be
consigned to this fate!!!

Through you contain some memories
which i will never forget;
some thoughts i cherish,
within your pages they languish,
some words, some sentences,
some unsaid pauses, a bit of anguish,

And when someday i feel bit low,
no princess to talk,
then maybe you will show..
the fun and laughter
that your pages have shared
some complaints and some passsion,
some love and some pain...

maybe you have died..
or gasping for last breaths
oh Praan.. in my heart..
you will always be there...

Parasite... life's a meal....

2007-09-03T10:32:00.000+05:30

And again today;
Life took a twist,
Roads are lonely,
Not a bird nor a beast....

Lonesome and alone,
In this maze of life,
A crowd drowned out
By deafening silence, a blind light...

So mighty, so ugly,
So harsh is its sound,
I wish I could tear out my ears,
My brains, my heart, my mouth...

So bright,
Like looking directly at noon’s sunlight
Lidless eyes,
That dont want to see yet cant go blind...

All the mindgames,
And all the fake smiles,
All the understanding glances,
Everything is fake, in this world of lies...

So many twists and so many knots,
this web of plots..
like something wriggling within,
eating my soul; inside out...

So much rage,
so much anger,
So much love,
yet no one good enough.....

But for the obligations of this farce called life,
I should live...
How I wish I was uncaring, selfish,
unscruplous, careless being...

Naaah... sensitivity is this soul’s gift...
Oh you are so understanding,
such a wonderful being,
always be treaured,
always be special an sweet...

haah... like hell..

feeding on my heart
a maggot snuggled inside
Ah why the hell couldnt you make me
A Fuc@##g bloodsucking parasite

The ocean - my heart...

2007-08-14T15:27:00.000+05:30

Sometimes you look at the ocean,
an you wonder its so blue and green,
take it in you palm mate,
you will find it transparent and clean

so also when..
you look at my actions
my words might sound dull or harsh to thee,
but be patient and understand
the underlying meaning..
you will like what you find..
honest, positive, pure and clean...

absolutely... i am serious.... hee haaa haa haa haa...

I dont cry......

2007-06-27T09:44:00.000+05:30

Love is a poision,

its gonna kill me,

Love is a poison,

i cannot resist,

kill me, beat me,

hit me till i die,

but never doubt my love,

coz thats the only thing

which makes me cry......

She's back....

2007-06-25T01:01:00.000+05:30

And She’s back…
Back with a bang!!
Hate her, love her,
cant escape her wrath.

Drenched I was,
like a carefree bird,
soaked in her chilly embrace,
dancing in her seasonal puddle.
Walking around barefoot,
on the carpet of green,
swish, swish, swish,
grass tickling ma feet.

All running helter skelter,
birds and beasts,
I chided them for being idiots;
“Come on!! Enjoy nature’s free gift…
Cant you feel her love??
she wants to play,
that sly devil enticing you
with this watery display”

Lashing me with earnest,
to scare me in hiding,
she came accompanied by her best friend
the naughty, chilly wind.
She thinks she rules me,
that haughty and proud queen
She asked her friend,
to howl ferociously….

“Oh is that your best shot..
Is that all you got?
Hear me, you beautiful witch
I am gonna romance you,
till you fall for my charms…
You cant scare me
because I enjoy you, your company,
I aint civilized, nor obliged to be sane,
To run behind things which mean nothing in the end…"

Oh!! she was pissed,
She was angry as hell,
Ferocity as a definition,
the atmosphere would explain!!

And she kept coming at me,
as if she would never stop;
for the entire day she kept on her rant,
piercing me with her bullets, raging, insane.

But as time passed by,
She turned into a drizzle.
Her grace and charm turned on full blast,
as if saying, Forgive me, my handsome!!!
Maybe, I think, she finally realised
I don’t hate her or her frolics;
rather loved her molten body;
the feeling of her coolness,
caressing my skin.

And then he came,
seemed was resting behind her ride,
beaming out a rainbow,
warming the cold countryside.

As I walk around dazed,
I could see time reversing back,
saw my childhood,
reflected in her muddy, watery path.
When I used to build paper boats,
and watch them bobble through her streams,
An inexhaustible patience to watch,
until they disappear where the eyes cant see.

Yes I loved her then,
I love her today,
And sure as hell, Rain
I will love you till I am gray……….

KFC sucks

2007-06-18T14:54:00.000+05:30

Chicken wings..
chicken wings,
I wont ever have, kentucky fried chicken wings,

I would prefer
a chicken tandoori,
at a roadside dhaba,
non Ac and unclean,
but never have kentucky fried chicken wings...

My Mom cooks better,
and they call this a successful multinational venture???
chicken wings..
chicken wings,
I wont ever have kentucky fried chicken wings

KFC sucks more than this poem...

Pumpkinnnnn

2007-06-18T14:34:00.000+05:30

Her innocent earthly charms,
Compliment a witty brain…
A hearty, infectious smile,
Sometimes, bordering on insane!!!

Her sparkling eyes,
Calm yet intelligent,
When they grace upon you,
You know you have,
their complete attention!!!

(of course there are always exceptions)

Her patience to listen,
and unassuming air,
compels you to open up,
Yet feel at ease, for having bared…

She will make you feel comfortable
And yeah, she does it so well,
You know I will always treasure our friendship,
As much as I treasure my friendship with Agnel

My innocent flower

2007-06-18T14:20:00.000+05:30

Innocent flower,
that is my love..
i feel so scared,
so afraid, to go near..
like a black bhavra,
i might sit on your tender petals,
and destroy that childish charm,
that glow in your nature;
that somehow i am afraid,
with my worldly wisdom,
i might taint it,
destroy it forever..
i dont want to be,
that gardener my love,
who removes you from your fogged plastic merry existence,
and thrusts you to see
the harsh reality
of this dirty world, and its unforgiving nature..

yet since i havent seen the person,
who can protect you in my absence,
i will do the dirty work,
guard you against this world that lurks,
in the darkness which surrounds you
that embraces your entire world,
Invisible to you
coz you cant see beyond the light of your innocence...

My Queen

2007-06-04T13:29:00.000+05:30

Mom has been asking,
and even princess pesters everyday, (heee hee hee)
Vina was also curious,
Amma said.. forget it..
Tere bas ki baat nahi hai..

So I thought, Okayyyyy..
What do I want..
What is it that I really need?
My dreamgirl…
how should she be???

Hmm…. lets start with,
The most essential thing,
She has to be a bit crazy,
her madness should match, my own ability..

(Ability to be mad of course)

Understanding, charming,
Full of life,
Positive attitude,
Even one of my stupid poems on her birthday,
should suffice..

As introvert as I am,
She should complete me,
but even in a crowd,
assuring me, that in her life,
I need to be..

Whose smile.. calm and serene,
as clouds moving silently,
through the mountains,
like at Lonavala … I can still see that scene…
Just for that smile…
Man, I know I would change,
Blasphemy!!!
But I would even become a vegetarian..

In her eyes, I would find
the sly look of a brat,
yet when I need it,
they will be wise and calm like a fulfilled cat...
I know they will be black,
like pools of tar,
Seeming to float..
on the whiteness of a cotton pod..
So clear, so pure,
so wise, so sure,
their confidence will guide me,
to achieve my passions.. (or maybe even a career…)

Her face...... Square..
I think I might like that,
And the features perfect…
Am sure God had some spare time,
after he hastily sculpted me so bad…

Her skin so smooth,
like alabaster,
even at, the slightest of its brush,
my family jewels would tingle..

Her lips, like the pinkest Vinca, I ever seen,
perfectly pouted,
to display a smile,
Matching her calm personality..

A beautiful nose,
The less said the better,
if she doesn’t have a beauty spot
maybe unhe lagegi meri nazar..

Her chin being square,
needs no more detail,
but her cheeks would be pinchful,
so that after I pinch, I’ll kiss to make them feel better again.. (as if…)

Her ears will be appropriate,
smooth and velvety,
Turing deep red,
the moment I say, something naughty..

Finally her hair!!!
Oggghh those cruel snakes,
when they shall slither on my skin,
forget goose pimples, I am sure I will get,
ostrich ones instead..

A tender neck,
will add to her grace,
A bridge between a heavenly body,
and that gorgeous face!!!

And as I proceed
down through her body,
She wont be a skinny model,
rather a healthy being,
So that, when I lie on her belly,
on that velvet skin
I will get,
the most pleasantest of dreams....

And then when we lay staring, at the stars,
I can play with my extra love,
that she will eat & put on,
coz of the food I will cook for her, my jaan,
and yet she will be happy
with the way she looks,
of course bothered sometimes,
“I am not as slim as that bimbo with that crook”
and then I would lift her,
up in my arms,
“no my love,
if I can pick you..
I don’t think u are fat at all!!!"

And then her walk,
Oh god!!!,

The sway in her hips,
the grace in her walk
Lighting electric sparks,
throughout my all,
Madly and deeply and truly awesome,
Her walk would fire,
Hmm… my imagination..

I know my requirements,
are too good to be met,
After all, what do I bring to the table,
to even dream of such a stake!!!!
But what the heck,
who the hell cares,
Its my imagination,
in my eyes…
My love will be like this...
prettier than all the rest..

Physically I hope,
she will be so,
Mentally its hard,
even for me to know…

Cheers and love…
My Beautiful Queen..
wherever you are…
I will always be waiting………

---- your love………. Cat....

No, no,
wont remember you too much,
Don’t even want to trouble you,
coz of that odd hiccup…

Oh yeah... Cheeni Kum.. Neena.... if you are available... call me...

Pleaseeeee

The Mirage

2007-05-31T10:49:00.000+05:30

Travelling through the desert,
Lost and forlon,
Trudging along,
To some destination unknown…

A moonless sky,
only a distant star,
promising light,
but not how long...

And then all of a sudden, I tumbled,
rolling et falling,
Time out of tune,
I fell to the bottom of that dune...

A bright light sparked,
And I was in paradise,
cool calm waters,
inviting me.. come cat… take a dive,
towering palms,
and lush green trees,
hollows everywhere,
for resting in peace,
chirping of birds,
adding to the scene,
a calm breeze welcoming,
the virgin rays of the morning king..

Could not believe,
is this true???
how could all of a sudden,
this change had come through...

I looked around,
Bewildered, dumbfounded,
Yet vary of this wealth,
An sudden roll of dice by fate..

But what the heck,
Lets take it in,
'coz I know this moment,
will always be within me,
etched in the heart,
at some corner somewhere,
so that I can recall it,
In moments of despair..

I tried not to breathe,
not even to blink,
Lest this scene be destroyed
yy a sudden exhale or batting eyelid..

Stinking wet lips
licking my face
I woke up from my daze,
my camel, poor beast
weary of being made to wait

Of course… it had to be
A mirage it was.
It had been,
what it always seemed,
I shud have known...
its naughty ways,
this treacherous desert
never makes favors on foe or friend!!!

I should have realised,
Its too good to be true,
This mirage will always be,
What it should,

A lie…

But then who cares,
Coz now I know,
Deep within my heart,
Some corner somewhere,
Lies its memory,
Which I can always recollect,
The memory that brings,
to my face a smile,
This desert can never take away
that mirage from my mind….

The high after the low

2007-05-15T13:02:00.000+05:30

Okay…
So this year,
it was different…
A very unusual guest,
graced the celebrations!!!!

Extremely unlikely,
for me to be,
in the presence of,
the Supreme Being…

Guess even He felt uneasy,
that I should visit,
one of the most wonderful places,
The location of one of His seats…

But all was made possible,
by a beautiful friend,
a fairy, an apsara,
the saintly princess….

The change she has made,
the confidence she has,
that she will make a beautiful painting,
out of this dump, this trash…

And yeah it feels good,
to dress up nice,
to notice appreciation,
in somebody’s eyes…
The feeling of being adored,
being appreciated, being high,
Of course the company matters,
the company of I, I, I & I……..

I hope we remain best of friends,
even when you marry your love,
or time and distances,
play their usual games….

Anyways, back to the day;
It was one of the most memorable one,
involving me,
and my birthday….

For all the missed gifts,
and some waiting,
and then praying amidst the traffic,
God, get me home in time, pleasssssse…..
I thank you, my princess,
for being there,
to celebrate this occasion,
grace this unique event……

And to my mum,
for the chicken biryani;
for your wonderful gift,
for being proud of such a worthless being!!!

And to baba,
for all your irritation;
I know it is always,
to make me a better person….

And to the most beautiful lady in this world,
whose ring I wear,
My silver princess,
my granny, the grand duchess...

And of course my girl,
my daughter, my hun,
the one whos owns me,
I am your slave, my darling Simran…

And then all my friends,
Who were with me the previous day,
and everyone else,
who did or would wish me on this day!!!

And finally to the one,
who I am waiting for,
though I don’t know,
where you are….

I thank you all,
for your love and affection,
for being with me
being my potion,
To journey through ,
this miserable world,
its your company,
that makes it worth….

And finally "Happy birthday to me………"
From the greatest, most handsome, dashing person….
To the greatest, most handsome, dashing person….

Life........My pretty, beautiful, merry, little darling

2007-05-13T23:10:00.000+05:30

Another year..
And the same old thing…
Life …
comes taunting,
My pretty, beautiful, merry, little darling..

All the highs,
All the lows,
All the stupid mood swings,
And all the useless chores.....

And for all the pathetic jokes,
And sometimes love,
And all the worries,
That accompany that notion.

And all the hurt
And all the pain,
And miniscule slights,
magnified by egos insane

And some sweet new memories,
And some new friends,
Some creative thoughts,
To make someone laugh, reduce their pain....

And some joys,
in worthless victories,
Some pleasure derived,
in fruitless journeys....

And all the beautiful things in life.
Butterflies and cockroaches,
Some colourful bright,
Some hideous yet equally needed......

And all the selfless happiness,
In a mother’s love.....
And all the good intent,
In a father’s hurt.....

And all the relations,
And all the friends,
And all my contacts,
Acquaintance........

The same old thing..
Life…. ;
Comes taunting again,
My pretty, beautiful, merry, little darling…

Farewell & Welcome

2007-05-08T14:13:00.000+05:30

So finally…. Tomorrow.
You start a new journey,
fresh new world,
uncertain yet exciting..

Enriched with memories,
and wishes and love;
A place where I am sure youll be missed
And even you will miss its fun!!!

About the new place;
you'll easily handle this opportunity,
the only thing I am sure, worries you,
must be the long long long long long journey…

Look on the bright side,
well nothing comes to mind,
unless you feel the new place,
brings you closer to something
suitably exciting, nice, smart, wise...

maaf karna.. less time.. so thats the best i can come up with...

My date

2007-05-04T00:36:00.000+05:30

A beautiful summer day,
Sun shining in a clear blue carpet,
Cheerful thoughts of a wonderful time,
were penetrating my upset mind.

What was the plan???
I had no hint,
yet I was confident,
you would plot something amazing...

As time passed by,
you announced your coming,
the queen giving audience
In a black and yellow chariot;
I guess by making me run
you wanted me to feel,
like a knight rescuing,
his beautiful ravishig queen......

And then I saw you.
Blazing like the golden sun,
Even the sun seemed dazed,
by someone so beautiful, so radiant!!!

By the sea we sat,
the wind playing with your hair,
waves singing their music,
trying to distract my senses.. (from you of course)
Splashing against the boulders
Cooing and hypnotising me with their drowsy songs,
Gently...., Nature, the manipulative witch,
tried to make my dream.. Her naughty playground...

But dumbfounded I was,
Stunned!!!
In your magnificent presence,
Speechless, I tried to utter some stupid sentence..

Futile…
and u thought,
the cat’s not talking,
Oh why!! oh Why!! doesn’t he say anything??

What shall I say my lady,
In front of such a sweet babe,
how can my voice,
disturb this scene; this extraordinary palette..
How could my harsh voice,
drown your springlike, singsong voice....
What if my one word,would wake me,
from this dream so nice?

As the sun set,
and the sky displayed its colour - full array
Like long time pals, we sat drinking nature,
the greatest alcohol ever made....
In each others company,
as time flew by,
I ended one of the bestest
evenings of my life…

hope that sums it up???

My wife's gonna be pissed when she read this in the future....

the morality wannabes...

2007-04-30T00:37:00.000+05:30

dont always be, a voice in the crowd,

labelling things coz you cannot get around traditions;

not everything that glitters is always gold,

sometimes try to look beyond your silly, stupid, mindsets,

you a***holes

The esssence of love..

2007-04-30T00:24:00.000+05:30

Is love between a mother and her child,
different than love between friends;
is love between brother and sister,
different than the way you love your pet.

it could be,
if you believe in laws of society;
but i am not talking bout selfish stakes,
i am talking bout love, in its rawest self...

not the love coz he'll grow up to care for me,
not the love coz tomorrow he'll register my proxy,
not the love coz we share the same parents,
nor the love coz he wags his tail more than anybody else...

This is love between souls; between featureless beings,
that doesnt see race, culture, time, breed..
This is the love which comes without demand,
without any expectation, want or need!!

you just like someone... full stop.

Might not be knowing her for many years
wont even dream of her to be my wife..
neither would i lust for her..
possibly might not meet her again in my life..
but when one day she breezes into my world,
that one moment that i ever get to share with her..
i hope to make her feel so very special,
she will never forget this cat,

that changed her life for ever...

come soon my love..

waiting for ever..

your cat......

My new friend...

2007-04-25T23:25:00.000+05:30

So today my new friend...
Think I shud talk bout you;
A person I hardly spoke to,
since the past few months,
I've known you..

It really amazes me,
the ease with which,
you successfully communicate,
With the most vibrant set of people I met...

And believe me…
Haa haa haa.. yeah your favorite word

BELIEVE me, when I say,
Everyone’s honest opinion
About you; my friend,
All those who know you,
(A really unique thing I ever seen)
Believe…
You are, a wonderful human being..

And trust me when I say,
Its not at all easy;
to bear me,
or be my friend..
Yet today we khichofy,
each others legs,
as if we been pals,
for a million ages!!!

Anyways all I have to say..
when you go to England
Into the arms of your
charming Prince Handsome..
I hope you remain this positive and swell,
And maybe manage to maintain
our friendship as well….

Always my regards…
Stay happy... stay cool...

Happy Birthday....

2007-04-24T10:40:00.000+05:30

It’s been 2 days now,

since you turned 26;

Don’t know which part...

...of this world, you exist!!!

but wherever you are,

The wingless kite

2007-04-20T15:23:00.000+05:30

been a long time,
since this place saw me..

as usual the complaint starts with,
i have been very busy!!!

life is sucking the life out my life
thank you God, i dont have a wife..

so now am wasting a few more bytes
at end on this phrase..
life lies stalking..
Me... a wingless kite..

Being good is worse than being bad

2007-03-13T10:40:00.000+05:30

And so I was asked what is friendship?
Is it when you regularly say,
oh hi!!!
how’z it life treating?

Usual formalities,
partying and hanging;
treating each other,
with a fake understanding.

When at the core,
we do not know;
the itch that bugs our pals,
his needs to crow.

To be heard everyone feels,
“I should be loved,
Adored, Pampered
like a king!!!”

But admit it son,
Do you reciprocate,
all the things that for you;
you, yourself expect?

If you do..
Hats off to you
if you don’t
you are a lucky fool..

Contradiction, eh?
But trust me.... It is true,
You are lucky bastard!!!
If you manage,
to stay aloof...

Coz when you sympathise,
let your concern show,
people will keep expecting..
They WILL always want more…

And God forbid,
If you don’t fulfill their perception,
you will be left wallowing,
in your own loose motions…

So what to do,
God!!! what to do,
Being bad is bad..
Being good is worse than that!!!

with a tear or a smile....

The idea of being left out,
starts in the mind;
you wonder about love,
your friends, your life..
You think why am I not,
as popular as him?
I wish her personality,
I could wear on my skin..
His handsome features;
Her sexy smile;
His bulging biceps;
Her unique style;

But finally everything
is a matter of perception (really???)
Haa haa haa..
drink it up, this is the loser’s potion
To boost your morale,
keep thinking so;
the phone calls on your birthday
will let you know…

But wait a minute,
do I really need it,
Acceptance of others,
to prove that I exist???
Coz everybody feels
there is someone better,
aspirations to which,
makes life’s journey a pleasure..
As Melvin* said,
You aint pissed coz u dint get it good,
But the guy next to you
Got better than you ever could!!!

So forget bout him,
think what you have;
The special being in you,
is what will remain alive.

When bodies turn to dust,
and nothing remains behind,
What matters is how you die,
with a tear or smile…..

* - Melvin Udal is a character played by Jack nicholson
in As Good as it gets....

Cheers friends...
you get one chance at life,
so live it up...
no one survives it...

An Angel... My friend

2007-01-05T09:22:00.000+05:30

For many a moons,
I tried to write,
but nothing came out,
that sounded quite;
what you mean,
as a friend to me;
Someone so different
yet is closer than many…

As shy as I am,
he is extrovert,
I am a forgotten flowerpot,
He is the dazzling chandelier.
Yet somehow with the distances
minimal conversations or mails,
After twelve - fifteen years
He still remains my friend..

We might not know each other,
that very well today;
Might not talk as much,
or spend time as long ago days;
No bicycle rides, No “talks” like then,
But believe me when I tell you,
I trust you more than
Any being, any brethren..

And I hope this way,
Friends we shall stay,
coz I’ll need you when
the devil comes, to take me away.
I will misspell your name,
Confuse him and maybe scare,
let him think,
I have an angel as my friend..

Happy Birthday behen...

Dedicated to my sister,
May God bless you & grant you what you need, more than what you want..

Porcelain skin;
A natural mop of curls,
Wise, silent, thinking eyes,
When she laughs,
Dazzling pearls..

Impish nature,
Kidaaas galore,
Belies the serene exterior;
Waiting to explode…

A dish of awlaa;
or a slice of kairi;
Oh she’s so happy,
a fly in a garbage bin
(that’s an awful simile to describe what she likes,
but I am short on time… excuse moi)

And today she grows…
How much? 23, really??
Acts as if She’as lived
twice + many…

This awful poem,
My dear behen,
is the best I can do,
in time limited…

So I end it with a happy birthday
and a wish that says:
May this year bring you
Satisfaction;
Love;
Fun;
Happiness;
all the thing you desire;
And some really really needed rest

Enjoy…..

My Angel's Love

2006-12-21T17:41:00.000+05:30

To witness love,
at its best;
I have with me,
its unique address….

Last night, was a privilege,
To dine with them…
An angel or santa??
and his missus…

Dumbfounded, dumbstruck,
Dumbwitted, simple dumbed;
your chemistry gets,
my four thumbs up..

I just pray now,
the black in this page;
wards all evil,
from my angel’s address…

U both are just too cute…. Muaaaahhhhh…

And the honor's mine....

Chocolate hair,
Hennaed for special care;
Untouched by fashion someplace,
Can see the vigor in its age.

Serene forehead
Lack of lines,
Unbridled mind,
Wears itself outside.

Thick eyelashes,
mystify the eyes;
reins in the passion,
shields me from crime..

Two rows of hair,
crown two almond shapes,
Giving the face
expression and grace..

Dark brown eyes,
Adorn the face..
Rich chocolate balls,
milk surrounds them..

A cute nose,
Graces the palate;
Giving it identity,
tremendous self respect.

Alabaster cheek,
Untouched adolescence,
Cute little dimples,
smile with coy passion..

Prominent chin,
Enhances the face’s being,
A royal bearing..
An ageless queen!!

Petals of rose,
Covering a set of pearls,
A velvet being..
Seductive passion!!!

(Haay what a scene)

A face of beauty,
A magical composition,
A master chef’s special,
A wine’s true color…

You deserve to adorn,
Shoulders of a prince charming,
Me, a mere soldier,
Salutes you, my queen!!!

Rainbow of life

2006-12-11T17:16:00.000+05:30

Some colours are dark
others are bright..
green signal somewhere,
and also red light..

Some are pleasant,
Some are real nice;
Some are bizzare,
Some are quite vaieet*.

Some take you high,
& some cause you to puke…
Some make you feel, a pauper…
Some bring out the duke.

Some make you happy,
jump up with joy;
Some take you down the drain,
destiny’s wicked ploy!!!

A unicoloured rainbow,
Asks me, my cat...
will it be worth watching?
what do you think prat?

Me wonders,
Me replies,
Many spices are needed,
To make this dish right…

Life…

keep rocking
your pushing
makes my journey
worth trekking…

*Vaieet is bad in marathi
Rhymes with bite…

Koan... art of meditation

2006-12-08T11:58:00.000+05:30

The sound of one hand

Two hands clap and there is a sound. What is the sound of one hand?

— Hakuin Ekaku

"...in the beginning a monk first thinks a koan is an inert object upon which to focus attention; after a long period of consecutive repetition, one realizes that the koan is also a dynamic activity, the very activity of seeking an answer to the koan. The koan is both the object being sought and the relentless seeking itself. In a koan, the self sees the self not directly but under the guise of the koan...When one realizes ("makes real") this identity, then two hands have become one. The practitioner becomes the koan that he or she is trying to understand. That is the sound of one hand." — G. Victor Sogen Hori

Meditation is very hard. To bring your mind into Shunya is difficult. Think about this question. When you try to grasp the answer, you will realise that you forget all your worldly obligations. And finally this journey of grappling with the quest, is actually mediation. Maybe i have this completely wrong. But I think this is what the passage means. Any advice?

The Sun & your boring life

2006-12-07T15:00:00.000+05:30

Through the day,
the world he lights...
Unnoticed, unobserved,
with dark he fights...

Unappreciated,
Unloved, Despised sometimes;
Continues to work,
Unhalted or otherwise!!!

"The sun",
Oh... he should feel,
so tired of life,
routine work all day
no applause, no prize.

But then my friend
actually you find,
the mighty world
revolves round his life!!!

So when someday
you feel neglected,
you are the sun
and some world unseen;
On you it depends…

Soon someday…

I waited…..
Life..... where art thou?
