Thoughts and words,
When they join in a covalent bond,
A beautiful compound called,
Poetry is born.
The nature, rains and experiences,
Act as catalyst
In the experiment with the styles,
And the mood of the poet.
The calm and quiet surroundings,
Mixed...
Those sultry summer vacation days,
When all cousins got together
And played throughout the day.
None cared about rest or food,
As playing was the only thing good.
At the evening fell, and birsa retreated,
We, the hungry mortals dragged...
Better late than never goes the adage,
Realizing that, oh! Indeed, it takes time.
It was all lovely, like a fairy tale,
For the coy and young bride.
She enjoyed the new phase of life,
Lest she knew, it...
Born in China,
You became a globetrotter.
You are an artist's delight,
And a writer's pal.

As he failed to make friends.

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!...
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 scribblings haunting my...

That's yet
To be seen
Is
Not in
Our control too.
So
Why worry
About all those,
Just
Live in
The current world,
Where,
We can
Sculpt our future
From
The lessons
Learnt in past.
