LIFE OF A GIRL

She gets up in the morning worried and messed up,
The mood is hot and flared up,
Today is the annual day and she is not ready,
With manicured, pedicured nails,
And with skin brushed to shine,
How to did she even forget to wash her hair?
The worries shows in the frizz of her hair,
Off she runs to shampoo on chilled winter morning.. Cold is the last thing to deter her today...
She has to be best, the most beautiful...She echoes..
Oh! She is so self obsessed careless yet careful teenager around...!!!

She enters the college with dreams and colors all around,
She can't repeat yellow she wore it on Monday,
Jeans, Shorts, Skirts - ankle length, knee and thigh,
Traditional or not is the fight with mom all the while,
Purses of various colors, shapes and sizes,
Shoes to fit each out fit add up each day,
Watches have thr day too,
With ear ring tossed in the loss of a stud,
With necklace rejected as it's gold not silver,
Nail color should change every alternate day..
Oh! She is so self obsessed careless yet careful girl around..!!

The marriage mellows her down a bit,
With duties to perform, with office to attend,
She still can't repeat a dress in a week,
And nail colors too have to change each week,
But purse remain same barring occasions,
And shoes also have to go for comfort of the day,
Yet in all her small ways
She tries to find that carefree moment of her life,
The life when she is she and not what is expected of her..!!

Kids bring another angle to her story,
The task is humongous, the responsibility huge,
The hair is always frizzled, the eyes sleep deprived,
Yet she manages to bring her she side out,
She maintains her  composure but is deeply worried,
All her flawless skin, her nails, her figure,
Have gone for a infinite  ride, a vacation, a break,
She doesn't throw her old clothes away,
Rather tries to fit in high school jeans be proud to feel she can indeed fit and enter...
Oh!  she is so self obsessed care free yet careful girl around!!!

The I Must Too foreign tour is round the corner,
Her self obsessed brain tickles oh! just four months to go,

She has to invite back her hair, nail and figure,
Plead, Beg, Order whatever she can BUT to have them back she must..

She plans out it's never too late,
Starts with yoga and aerobics too,
Green tea is a part of her life whole day now,
Compliments are coming and she is overjoyed
With new found glory she is queen again,

Tours have to must have 'shorts pic', and a 'Frock pic'  and a 'running around with kids' pic for sure ,
The fact that husband has aged, bald,and *** -bellied doesn't even scare...
Oh! What a self obsessed carefree yet careful girl she is!!

Things that keep her strong are,
The taunts that come along...
From high school till today she grew up on them,
They are the multivitamin and have been that way,
Will they only see you? they ask,
And she is sure they will, they always did...
With all the tasks,the deadlines and the kids growing,
She reminds herself she is still the queen,
She cannot forget and move on as this is she that she has grown on...
Ageing doesn't scare her as she is still beautiful in her own eyes,
"Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder" they say,

She is you, she is me,
she is the daughter born yesterday, and the daughter who will born tomorrow, and she is the grand mother too...

Oh! She is so self obsessed carefree girl anyone ever did see...!!!

Success can be credited to you,
Failure will be ours.

One to boost confidence,
Another to ward off depression.

Life can be a tough journey,
Together it can become ride full of adventure.

Believe me,
I
Believe in you,
Trust you,
With my life.

It's our story,
A little bit of YOU in ME
And
A little bit of ME in YOU
Together we create US.

Together we can, and we will weave the magic,

You see that innocent eyes,
That smile which
doesn't mean much,
That twist in the face,
That moans and cries,
You here those sounds
And try to understand,
The meaning of sounds
The silence,
The blabbers.

You try and gather
Your wish and wisdom
To bear the pain
Of his and yours,
You arrange your emotion
On sections and shelf,
The fun being a mom..
The pain to see him
bed-ridden..,

The joy of being a mom
The pain of having
A special son..!



You meet people
You try to dodge
Those
Haunting eyes
Questioning eyes
Inquisitive eyes
Expecting eyes
Advising eyes..

Which want to know
Each single thing
That you don't want
to answer,
Yet you start again,
The story from the birth
The things gone wrong
The joy you have being a mom
The life being tough,
And,
The life's satisfaction maximum..

And you dread to hear
the words that will follow
You try to be deaf
and run away
Yet,
Slowly you hear
The questioners whisper...
The listeners views
Forced upon your ears .
It's painful to know this,
It's painful for a mom,
It's painful for a child
to be like this....

You want to shout
Your lungs ripped out ..
A mom can never have
pain to serve her child..

A mom is a mom
always a Mom...
Yes,
May be the child is in pain
and that's wrong..
May be God had his own plans..
May be God felt the child
is in better hands.
But,
There's s no point explaining..
As a mindset cannot be changed.

Opinions can be plenty .
But,
A bond will be unique
A special son of a
dearest mom...
No comparison,
No comparison
No compassion
Is ever needed..!!

When I touch my bed,
Lights go off,
My heart starts beating,
My mind stops working,
My eyes doesn't close,
Still I dream,
I dream of you...!

When loneliness covers me,
When darkness surrounds me,
The silence of night around me,
The sound of insects chirping aloud,
In this silence my heart speaks aloud,
Your name it shouts,
for you it calls...!

When I start to sleep,
My eyes start to rain,

I just keep thinking how CLOSE we were,
I just keep thinking how FAR we are,
Yet I believe one day we will meet
And in that meet eternal bliss will be  till eternity...!

Dreams are something I live on,
With open eyes I dream of you,
Thoughts betray me,
Love kills me,
Distance destroy me,
Rules bind me,
Loving you is the best thing ever happened to me,
To be loved by you would have been divine...!

Wait is what is written in my destiny,
Wait is what I will do,
May it be week,
month,
years...
Still,till infinty my eyes won't sleep,
My heart won't stop dreaming,
My thoughts will always have you in them,
And as the night falls,
And the lights goes off,
My head will touch the pillow,
My eyes will flood for no one to see.....!

You are my life,
my soul,
My soulmate,
You are everything I have,
You are everything I want to have,
You made me complete,
You made me woman....
You made me woman madly in love,
My destiny will change to occupy you,
My wait will be fruitful
Sometime,
Someday,
Somewhere,
Some how,
We shall definitely meet.....!

Till then...
Live well..
My soul,
My soulmate..!

You charm around the crowd
They start branding you,

You sparkle in brilliance
They start cornering you,

You shine among the people
They start breaking you,

You listen to them more
The more they weaken you,

You change for them more
The more they tame you,

You begin to understand them
They start manipulating you,

You start feeling yourself worthless
They start being generous with you,

You embrace the thought of dependency
They begin to treat you like Royalty,

You start enjoying being pampered
They start criticizing you,

You start accepting bullying
They start torturing you,

You speak their language
They call you foolish,

You shrink in wisdom
They brand you invalid,

You changed your perception,
They thought you were dumb.

This is a life of women,
Don't let this happen to you,

Don't change your thinking,
Overpowered by anyone,
Listen to all but,
Speak as you want,
Don't give back but,
don't listen harsh
either,

You have a brain of yourself,
You always had,
Use it harder.

Women, you are half of the world,
The better world holds you strong,

Don't wait for anyone to
Judge,
Accept,
Acknowledge,
Appreciate,
Your beautiful presence on PLANET.

They had their summer kid house,
On the slopes of the big house,
Under the big tree,
Thatched roof, walled and cool.

The house was big for the two of
them to cozy in,
They even had a attic
With bed facing a window,
Window had a opening
With Macaw cage outside,
At times she sat there
talking to the bird,
Looking over the stream that flow down the hill.

Each summer they spent
All their time there,
They ran down the beach to fight the mighty waves,
And came back to there den to
feast on their feat.

Soon they grew and big they become,
College had become there second home,
In vacation he came, she was already there,
She sat in the thatched house,
Talking the the bird,
He made her meet his 'new' friend
In college they had grew close,
'She' was gorgeous and beautiful,
And had all his attention for now.

'She', the new friend would love to sit in the big house,
and would like breakfast on the
big table,
Beach 'she' would avoid for it will
tan 'her' skin,
Summer house was no place for
'her' to reside.

He tried desperate to be in the den,
Sometimes he came alone,
Sometimes at night he slept there,
Mornings will be with  Macaw and the stream flowing down,
Beaches were now a sneaking affair,
For he went only when he could fair.

Vacation ended and so did all,
He came to meet her to say her good bye,
She was in the den, eating her breakfast alone,
He came and took a bite
from her plate,
He said, wait I will come
back soon,
To share this unfinished
breakfast room,
She knew that instant,
that her friend is back.

For the one who can't love the den,
Cannot share the life of her friend,
The cozy place was not aloof now,
The Macaw too was happy and sound,
The stream was singing too,
And the beach was crowded huge,
The residents have come back
And life had returned too.

सुबह दोपहर शाम को बस
तेरे दीदार को चाहूं मैं,

तेरी पायल की झंकार को
दूर तलक सुन पाऊं मैं,

तेरी आहट को
सुनने को बेताब रहूं मैं,

तेरी झलक की
आहें दिन भर भरूं में,

हर सुबह मैं तेरी जुल्फ से
ओस के मोती बिखरते देखूं,

हर दोपहर वह ज़िद्दी बाल को
तेरे चेहरे पे लुड़कता देखूं,

तेरी मासूम शक्ल हर शाम को
बेतरतीब होते देखूं मैं,

तेरी झलक पाने को
दिन भर का
सुकून ताक़

तेरे होने भर के एहसास
से खुद को
ज़िंदा रख पाऊं मैं।

In this big world
Of beauties and dreams,
I dreamt my life
To be carefree and in ease,
As a small girl
My dreams always became true,
As teenage the tender age
Hurdles arrived and by age they grew.

Charms of life gave me a call,
Shattering my dreams in pieces they fall,
And aah! Now what a pity of me?
I am here collecting each of my dream.

I try to join them and once again,
I want to believe, but, in vain,
That life is a carefree thing,
And the world a beautiful place
In which you can still dream.

I loved you with my heart,
I loved you with my soul,
I gave you credit of everything I became,
I heard all that you said,
I followed you blindly,
I believed it when you proposed me.. ,
When I was a child..a teenager..,
I believed you when you said YOU LOVE ME..!!

I believed you when you said I am 'different' for you..,
I believed you when you said I am 'different' from others,
I never objected when you befriended many..,
I understood when you said 'you can't marry me'..,
I understood when you did not inform me 'you are engaged'..,

Yet

The only thing I wanted to believe,
The only thing I wanted to know that "YOU LOVE ME"...!!

We stayed friends, platonic always..,
In the moments of my need,
You helped me always,
During exams and competition..
You motivated me always..,
You saw no harm came to me always..,
All these were acts  giving credibility to my belief...
The fact for me that..
You 'cared' for me always..!!
That in bottom of your heart 'you love me always'!!

But one day...

Towards the end of that cherished relationship..,
The time had come for us to move on..,
You came to say a final good bye,
The FINAL MOMENT had finally come..,
I asked you one thing, with tears in my eyes..,
Waiting either to flow out or to roll back forever..,

I asked you one last time
"DID YOU EVER LOVE ME?"

And that one last time.. You answered,
"NO, NEVER"!..

SILENCE PREVAILED...!!!

And then...

It doesn't matter that we did not marry..
It doesn't matter that you proposed marriage to me just a month after this..,
It doesn't matter you divorced your wife after one month of marriage,
It doesn't matter the whole world blamed our friendship for your divorce,

IT DOESN'T MATTER ... At all...!!!

That NO, NEVER... Stayed with me..
Is still staying with me..
Will stay with me forever..

Even today I credit you for what I have become..,
Even today I know you have chiseled me a sculpture..,
Even today I know "YOU LOVED ME BACK THEN"...

But IT DOESN'T MATTER, DOES IT??

Life is but an unknown road,
No driver can lead you through..

Life is but a unsolved mystery,
No doctor can cure you through..

Life is but an unrecognized destination
No road will lead you through..

Life is but a quest for innovation,
No scientist have perfected it through...

Life is but a tangled puzzle,
No scholar had cracked it through...

Life is a but a set of problem
No solution have ever been deciphered for..

And so we rely on
God...

The Generator, Operator, Destroyer...

Who can
Generate the unknown energies and souls

Who can Operate those souls in machines made by Him..

And

Who can Destroy those machines and reuse His souls...

Mood swings from bright to dull,
As is the weather today,
Raining like my eyes, smiling like my lips,
Standing here, I can say, nature and me are same today.

The reason of my lost smile is unknown,
Why my eyes are wet is yet a question,
My thoughts moving around my past,
Where there was happiness, joy, and love spread everywhere.

Today even after years have passed,
I feel those memories afresh,
His face calm, sweet and charming,
His laughter echoes in my eyes with his eyes assuring.

I know we will not meet again,
Will his memories bring the shine again,
The loneliness of my house and my dreams,
Will it be filled with his essence again.

His thoughts are always with me, confronting me,
His caring words are always there fir me to lean upon,
His warm touch on my hand is still alive,
If, not he, his presence is always felt with his fragrance filled deep in me.

Each time you achieve something...
Is it milestones or is it rebirth....?
Each morning that you wake up,
Do we not BORN again..?

Each life is different
Each person passes it's disposition..
Born you are each day till you die..
You have to create history with each passing day...!!

Who says you Born at your birth,
You Born at each achievement..
It's a NEW BEGINNING with each new thing..
Its a fresh start with each new positioning....!!

Life is a canvas each morning,
A finished painting each evening..
Sometimes it takes a few weeks, few months for painting to finish..!!

But on the day when it's done..
You born again setting new task new destination..
A new canvas ahead of you,
you fill with new color and new Strokes..!!

Never be satisfied with your painting of life,
Raise your bench mark each time you finish..
Be humble in achievement of yesterday,
Cuz with the new day it finished, you Born again, you start again..!!

Never retire, never tire..
Keep moving, keep creating
Life has to be a best seller painting..
Like has to be created with each day that you Born... Till you die..!!

It pains me,
It tears me,
It troubles me,
Deep...deep in there..!
When you call me,
When you ask me,
When will I come...

It disturbs me serious..
I cannot answer,
I cannot promise..
It hurts ..
deep ..deep down there...!
When you ask
Will I be there for your birthday..


It shakes me hard
It's a bad thought..
And it pains me deep.. deep down there..!!
When I think of all the letters I receive,
When I miss the moments so cherished..!!


But it makes me proud..
The thought of being of some purpose, meaningful..
Me at border,
Protecting you, our home,
Protecting our country, our motherland..

It effects my peace..
Yet, it makes me strong too...
All the pain of missing you little one..
All the pain of loving a fellow friend...
Gone now to home to Rest in peace...forever...
Fighting and guns, Commands and demands..
All make me strong each passing moment ..

Though all of it pains me...
Deep.. deep down there..!!

It sure does make me strong too..!!!

Happy Mother's Day*

The day a child is born a mother is born,
The mother is as new as the child,
The mother grows with child,
The mother learns with child,

And mother MOTHERS the child...

The day the mother is born a fighter is born.

She can fight, lie, cheat, sacrifice, ****, beg, for the needs of the child.

No one should question MOTHER... Because when a lady is mother she is everything a CHILD WANTS...
but not always what SOCIETY WANTS.

The Sahel Sahara is deep, big and vast,
Golden desert and sand dunes past,
Camels and shrubs hidden bones beneath,
Dry, rigid and lifeless.

But,
it gives much needed life to the Amazon,
The desert storms from sahara deposits minerals in Amazon.

The lifeless big mass brings to life the biggest life forms,
The dry zone creates the rain forests.

Nature and it's mystery unsolved yet curious.

Messy hair,
Messy dress,
Mess all around.

Kitchen sink,
And
Kitchen top,
Filled with leftover
Brownie cups.

Bed spread
with
Soft toys,
Wrinkled bed
sheets adorned.

Living room

All around.

You hear happiness around,
A house like this is peace supreme,
Don't judge by mess abound.

The lady is not lazy
The lady still
loves to dress,

But it's just,
She chose to make

To her little

This is the only difference!

In the middle of life,
In between the chain of thoughts,
Free flowing ideas,
Weaved up intense in my heart...

In your thoughts
I sit,
gazing the sky beyond,
Huge, blue deshaped sky's deep blue color,
It's deep like thoughts,
Gazing intently in horizon I sleep in slumber thoughts...

I sleep with you,
I wake up with you...
But you are not besides me..

This is the only difference....

When my eyes open,
I see your little innocent face,
But when I touch it...
The feel is not thr...

That's the only difference

My eyes wells up in tears...
My head's rests on your chest..
Your hands touch my head...
But I don't get that feeling of being touched..

That's the only difference

You are there yet not there...
That's the only difference

You try to bring smile on my thoughtless face
But your eyes cannot see that smile..

That's the only difference

This is the only difference.....

Every evening I see the
Brightest star shines by..
It waits for me to come and see
Before it goes away..,

The timing is set
It always comes..
At the time of dusk
And sun is about to descend
And the moon is about to emerge
In that twilight zone
I see you on horizon..!!

And when the darkness sets in..
And the moonlight fills in..
And in multiple stars twinkling,
It's there everyday..
I can see from my West facing window,
It waits for me for few minutes,
The moment we see each other,
It says goodbye to me
And fades away..
To come again next day!

I know very well My son,
We are playing this game,
The time you left our home,
I see you since then..
I know you come to greet
A sweet Hello!
To your mom..
Love you my son
Love you my Shining Star..!!

I remember my rides
With high speeds ..
The thrills, the adventure in rain, hail and shine..
I remember my days spent wandering...
In countryside and beyond..
I remember heavy rains..
Made sudden urge for drive...
The unplanned long drives,
The eating out was always a norm..
And junk food was so much fun...

The speed kills, never detested my love to ride back then,
And
Life was so much fun...

The adventure is all changed now,
Since my daughter came along,
I started to watch my speed,
And 30-40km/hr became a check point in my life,
Rain became a slippery mess,
And I became a careful rider..

Where,
I cannot meet an accident,
Getting injured or sick is out of question,
Being healthy is a compulsion..
And life cannot be taken for granted,
Cause I have to take care of my little one.

I cannot be a careless mess,
I cannot eat burger for lunch..
My daughter demands pizza and fries,
I serve her baked veggies topped with sunshine..(fried egg)..
She give me a harsh look to ****..
I give back her a smile..
She knows her gaze did not ****..
She attack her food with no fun...

All my ABC's start with veggies and fruits..
Cautious me is always in a fret..
A bit cold makes me a nurse,
I wrap my daughter in coat doubled of woolen.

When she overhears my adventure days,
She can't believe her ears and feels all untrue..
One day she saw my album of old pics..
Questioning eyes, accusing eyes all was on her face..
The pic had me..
Riding fast..ending on a pizza joint, with spirits in my hands ..
And now,
I have a sheepish smile to hide my fear.
Trying time of explaining stuff that had been a distant past..

Next thing on my list was,
To hide the album deep,
For never to be found again till she becomes a parent, a mom....!

The adventure of being a mom are too high...

Mom can't have a drink and sleep carefree...
But with sleepless nights, she become a zombie.
Mom can't go for long drive , can't spend night- outs with her friends,
And she ends up with tension high degree, When daughter doesn't return from her friend's birthday celebration.
Mom can't spend time on the foolish talks with her friends on phone ...
For the energy drains with arguments with daughter for rights and wrongs
And for the now that's wrongs, which was once right .

Being a Mom is toughest thing...
To live a life with example is the adventure in itself.

We arrange here meeting
of poets and poems,

'Let me present' had
changed to Hello now,

'Let' hear' has changed
to whoa ,

Superb has changed
to once more ,

Poets don't go to poets
meet now,
they knock the door of
Hello Poetry
