Life Lessons through Songs

Life Lessons through Songs

Songs are a solace,  To broken hearts,  And to the ones in solitude.    As I hum through one such gem,  I learn the lessons of life.  Oh! How beautifully said.    The connect that it makes to life,  Through the lotus and water droplet, How apt the metaphor...

Fighter Hearts

Fighter Hearts

Raging with anger,  Their hearts pounded fast,  At the sight of the perpetrators,  Who harmed their cosy nest.    They, the builders of the nest,  Couldn't see the strands fall apart.  Their hearts ached,  But, the fight, they continued.    The sight of...

Utopia

Utopia

Universal brotherhood,  Tireless help from all over,  Open minded thinking,  Peace, that prevails,  In every waft of air.  Ah! Ain't such a world beautiful? Alas! Utopia it is.    Imagine, a day in such a world,  Where fearlessly roams,  Our mind and soul.  Alas!...

Memory Planks

As I stepped through those gates,  Memories flooded my mind.    I waded my way through them,  And reached my destination, the room.    The classroom, empty though,  Echoed the laughter and cries.    The wooden benches remained intact,  With the...
