Words...


You are born when feelings tend to take off wings
You emerge when silence can speak no longer
You are an answer to a stoic's stings
Or poem of a poet's drowsy ponder

You are the base behind every inception..
You are a vector to thoughts in cacophony
You are a picture, weighing thousands in number
A spring to a withering winter's monotony

You are a treasure of events time immemorial
And for the ones awaiting embrace
You are a path from existence to inventions
Or a journey to Juliet's fervor grace

You can be used and misused
You are a power when spoken wisely
You are a hatred when left bruised
A sort of nectar to a listener's dismay

You still shine through years of tarnish
And continue to be the mankind's profess
You are the empath waiting to ink
When the dreary eyes can no longer confess

The Loud Silence

Rummaging through a cacophony of squawks Many thoughts were heard; many forgotten In the fog leading one to weary Stumbling over an ascending despondence Yet the GREY went on in hope Of a stone fluent in silence Of a rippling substance beyond void Of a symphony amidst clamour Days and nights of retries and reset Led to the longest night before it bloomed When the course took its final en-route Towards uncovering the one departed The  silent spoke as the curtain rose Louder than the worldly cackle Of ideas breaking ever convention Of thoughts suggesting a lyrical prose But the world wasn't ready For the orthodox couldn’t decrypt, Couldn't afford anything but flak Painted on the walls of prejudice  Years passed as the material decayed Yet the GREY went on in hope Of a hushed tide to soar again And honour what was unhailed

Encounter

You have been visiting me more than often I presume the peak is near And so is the fear to move on For you may fade one day Debuted on a rainy canvas The slumber chose to squander Dreams of ambitions played a role no more But a song on bosom twin roads We had to part; the bona fide assured Many lines were left unread on a brief intimacy What followed next was a tumultuous applause Of a short episode, leaving me in disarray  I sought repose; ceded to comatose Of a desire for a yet another rendezvous It had to happen again; this time on a moonlight tryst On a winter solstice over scented candles Waking up next to you was inescapable A deal over smiles and chardonnay Days went by, so did the episodes of meet and farewell Leaving me on the stop of a conundrum  For you have been visiting me more than often I fear you may fade away

The 'LionHearts' : Colours of Change

12 th March 2017...this is just another usual day. Some people can call it a sleepy Sunday; for some it is a working day and to many in India it marks the initiation of Holi, the festival of colours. But for me this day brings much more in the form of thoughts that cease to exist in this busy-busy life. These thoughts mostly surround the life of a child who “lost his spring” even before he was allowed to do so. A child, who came into this world in rags and destined to leave the world in same; a child, who played with rocks, sand and fire instead of toys; a child, whose sole purpose was to win bread from the leftovers for his family of 6. While running towards maturity at a tender age, one day the child forgets his way to home; he is lost. The untouched born entity now becomes bait for the world to consume. There are quite a many but repetitive paths that he might fall into. The well known among them is “ Child trafficking ”. Courtesy: Google images Lost his way, the child
