Spaces



At times we have everything,
Yet something keeps missing…!

For spaces too hold a place…
Spaces… holding memories’ case..

Memories.. which bring smile…
Make the case even more fragile..!

Dearest ones leave reminiscences..
And intensify the burden of their absence..!

Pondering makes the decisions weak,
Makes one feel helpless and meek..!

True... choices define our lives…
Don’t be so greedy..
No one forever survives..!

Laugh out loud .. and understand ..
Why some smile and some pretend..!

Pray for the best but believe more..
Beliefs are magical in healing sores!

Have faith on time..It may vacate the space..
If it doesn’t, you are as good as an ace !

    "Dearest ones leave reminiscences..

    Loved it....
    Another instance when I feel like saying "You are an ace at poetry!!!"

    When I read these, I wonder if all of us are in the same state.. :) We choose to believe all which we were taught not to push our faiths into; and if none has ever survived then why do we fool ourselves with beliefs which will someday turn out to be another source of disappointment??
    This one was amazing.. It was perhaps the shortest of all yet it was deep at most of the places..

    Lovely poem.
    Refelection of the kind of person that you probably are. Those close to you can judge better than me as I may miss some feelings and just run my eyes over the words.

Categorizing Confusions…

Just wanted to give my little brain some rest by squeezing out all the worries on paper—rather on ‘Word Doc’… starts here … Nowadays I am opining, it would have been probably good if I thought less…. Ordered disorders and qualms follow:  “Everyday type”… Over - what to wear, when, with what accessories, among which type of crowd … Over - how to start, what to write, what I m confused about… Also, over - what to write while sending some documents to the manager…and the stuff is          reframed  numerous times… Over - which friend to call, finally none and then this one lands in “stern” type.. Over - my access card so I hunt it in my bag almost daily on walk to workplace,  to finally           “discover”, probably it fell from the chair and escaped my mind.. Over - how to say ‘No’ to a flat mate when she will mistreat my belongings..  so mean of me … “Stern”… Over - what to talk to people I meet the first time, second or more… Over - how to

It doesn't matter ...

For whom am I living? For whom will I die? My existence doesn’t matter, How hard I may try! Dozen acquaintances and a family, Some understand some ignore, How long to ask for console? Most of them got bored! Tears, the eternal buddies, Will flow and accompany, till you are at ease! They comforted when u opened your eyes, Will stay till you surrender and cease!! Aimless I breathe..                          And count the hours that pass,                            Wish I knew the breaths in account.. To know, how long will it last..!! Hope is the worst thing, It shouldn’t exist, It keeps you prolong.. Which couldn’t  last long..! Traversed so far but didn’t reach anywhere, Still no clue .. If it doesn’t even matter? For whom  am I living ..? For whom will I die…?

How to flatter your friends? - I

From many days I was planning to add some useful content to my blog. Most of us since very young age have thought to do so or have been told by others - to learn just one word a day to improve our ‘vocab’. As most of you would agree, ‘this one word a day’ is not as simple as it seems.  At least, in my case I have been planning one word a day, a week or 10 words a month, even sometimes at least 100 words a year and have even implemented such plans sometimes though not regularly... So what I am going to do now is to share 10 words every month, in two parts of five each so that it’s easy to assimilate all of them. To make the learning easy and captivating the entire stuff would be copied from “Word Power Made Easy” by Norman Lewis. I am going to pick his sessions randomly and reproduce here: Here it goes, the first half: Our first session would be ‘ How to flatter your friends ’ ? Words are the symbols of emotions as well as ideas. You can show your feeling by the tone
