A Reverie!




I lay asleep,
And things went on...
By the time I woke,
The time was gone!


I thought God will do everyone's good,
And be fair to his child...
But I went rushing in tears to him,
When the final day arrived.


“I did none's harm and stole not a thing,
That I was gentle by nature and did no sin,
So, why still you ranked me last?
And why you overlooked my glorious past?”


Strange! God didn't smile looking at me...
Thought I was the most lovable child held he,
And then he spoke with an eye on me
“You did nothing to be you ever wanted to be”!!!


Perplexed, I stared...
His throat, he cleared...
“You lived on a past that died years back ,
And buried your dreams alive stack by stack...
For you were a coward who never dared a thing,
Child, harming and stealing are not alone sins.”


“My love for you never faded,
Until  your dreams for your fears ’re traded...
Every night, some magic, I hid inside the box(mind),
That you never opened in fear of some loss”


I felt my throat being gripped so tight...
I cried for help to cease my plight...
My own ululation shook me from sleep,
And for so long, I recognized, I had been so asleep !


And, realized that god keeps magic in everyone’s mind,
And that for the first time I had opened mine,
And... Unleashed a reverie of this kind...
Which, When I understood, felt so fine!


And so flashed all my fears at once,
All the firm grasps and inhibiting ties,
That how blindly I looked at everything,
When it was right before my eyes.


Awakened anew, as I was...
Could listen, my dreams calling out for me,
And then, I became without a pause,
All that I ever wanted to be !!!

God moves his hand...   And a breeze does blow ,    I place my heart over the wind ,      Which everyday takes it to you !        You know not my part …      You heed not my heart ,    Though the songs of the breeze stir you well ,  But seems , you don’t need my heart L   I remain dead all while ,     Waiting for my wandering heart to bring me smiles ,       Just then, get my sobbing heart back …         Oh ! The longing and the pain multiplies!!        En-wrapped in tears every time I cry...      When look at me, you hear not a sigh?    And each time, I decide, this is last !  Until next time, I try hard forgetting past!!  And  here-now  , sending you my heart again …    Knowing the longing and the pain…      The twist is sw...

sisterhood !   Oye dIds , this one’s for you ! =) The tiny hands that managed to pick me from my cozy cradle… and the lovable back, had been once tied to...so I may not fall..;) those fairy tales that you had told me along our paddle :) Oh! how I wish to get back it all…I cherish it all! the way we used to play all day long ! making houses of mud, and hoping that they should never fall.. the number of skippings and the races we had.. the way we fought over whom loves more-mom and dad :P ! the times you carried my school bag, and the times I did your homework.. those poems…that in place of you..,I'd crammed.. those thousands of pacts and deals we had...! exchanging stuffs from frocks to socks.. that royal leisure spent sitting idly on rocks :P adorning the walls with that modern art… and hiding behind each other when being caught :D the times we had quarrelled... and just decided ceasing to talk ! And chatting wantonly, the very next moment... and then realizing...ooops! ...

The dusky wonder !

Lighting the moon,  and pulling the dark curtains… The sun sneaks…  to rest onto the mother’s lap..zzZ! The jingling of the temple bells… and the chanting of the evening prayers... at some distant far off place, all blow the trumpet of the descend of the night.. from the heavenly space..!! The vast cold raiment, it bears.. to wrap the heated mother earth… to dissolve the scorching sunlight.. and to caress its children abreast ! The breeze that flows along... tickles the studded stars of its gown. they murmur and twinkle in return… but never do they frown..! The moon that lits  up the forehead of night..! Is like a newlywed bride’s …ornament of pride! The silence…that accompanies sings lullabies into the tired ears. and stirs into the minds and hearts… the beautiful symphonies ! ...and when every mind starts weaving a new dream… and the souls start connecting with divine... It moves her cloak, again round around… and volatiles eventually withou’ a sound! It awakens ...
