Afterwards....
Jayantee Khare Dec 2018
what keeps one from taking the first move?
not one's ego,
it's the fear of getting disappointed afterwards...

what keeps one from certain people?
not the fear of being judged,
it's the fear of being criticised afterwards........

what keeps one from togetherness?
not the fear of being used,
it's the fear of being misused and thrown afterwards...

what keeps one from love?
not the fear of getting the love faded,
it's the fear of being unloved afterwards...

actually the biggest fear is not "the present",
it is the fear of "the afterwards"....
can we live in the moments? and fear afterwards?
Pondering upon the fear or reluctance in few people

Happy streets....
Jayantee Khare Jan 2018
People coming
out of their nest,
Few sundays
marked as fest!

Let's go cycling
or just walk,
Everywhere
people flock!

Kids are playing,
elders relaxing,
Drawing, dance,
or sketching !

Traffic absent,
roads are our own,
Yoga, zumba,
fitness zone!

Football, badminton,
Karaoke,
Sit or lie down
on the road, it's ok!

Move and groove
on favourite song,
Dance on the road,
it's not wrong!

All are happy
it's a good treat,
Come and join
on happy street!
In india, we have happy streets...the traffic is blocked for few hrs...on earmarked road....been there with son...enjoyed ..and inspired to write this...

himalaya
Jayantee Khare May 2017
It's ecstasy that their is no end,
Ups and downs, life has a blend,

As soon as you conquer one peak,
You find more higher ones sneak

And giving you another challenge,
For the life is a mountain range,

Amidst of the peaks there are steep,
Gorges where you submerge into deep,

Life is like mighty Himalaya,
To liberate us from from wordly maya...
Maya means illusion in hindi....during my recent to Dalhousie at foothills of Himalaya i inspired to write this

The twisted love story
Jayantee Khare Apr 2017
It was all love only ..doping
All new sweet mesmerizing
Hopeful fulfilling
Happy Promising


The time twisted the tale
Good proved as evil
Heaven turned into hell
Angel became devil


Now no love just anger
Hurt hurt and more hurt
Disappointment emptiness
Hopelessness n regret

This is my twisted love story..
Yes this is my twisted love story..

Today is my birthday
Jayantee Khare Aug 2017
Inside in pieces
Yet outside strong
making things right
yet proven wrong

The dreamy road turned
into a patch rough
The repeated setbacks
turned me tough

Few rollbacks
Also comebacks
Many setbacks
Yet bounce backs

Lost a lot
Found a little
Learnt a lot
Unlearnt a little

Many loved
Few unloved
Few just involved
Issues unresolved

Many pains
Also gains
Not agains
Some stains

It's the course
No remorse
Always thankful
To all I'm grateful

Added life to years,
totally transformed
**Birthday reminds,
The life is reformed!
It's my bday
Just looking back n summarizing life..

Angels do exist
Jayantee Khare May 2017
People think
who will cry, when you die...
Does it really matter?
When you are no more?

An accident,
shaked me inside,
left me thinking...
Who will hold me, when i fall?
Who will pick my broken pieces?
Who will the first person to contact?
When i am in need,
accident like emergency.

My spouse?..ofcourse
kids?..yes
neighbors?...have to
relatives?...probably
kind of friends?...maybe

If none of the above, then?
the God,
the angels,
the divine help sent by the God,
Extension of divinity....
Two youngsters passing by...

Yes! yes! yes!
Really angels do exist.....
Accompany you,
Always guard you,
take human form to help you on time,

Thankful to the young boy and girl for attending me...
thankful to divinity for sending them on time...

Rakhi...a thread for life
Jayantee Khare Aug 2017
Rakhi-
The thin invisible thread ties you to my heart

Although we are far away,
You're remembered on special day!

Rarely we meet,
Occasionally I greet!

Infrequent visits,
But the bond exists.

Occupied with liabilities,
You figure last in the priorities!

Since ages, the thread not tied,
Everytime, the plan not materialized.

Feeling sad for absence in your needs,
But deep inside my heart bleeds.

Nothing else I could say,
For your wellbeing, I just pray!

Understand! I am for apart,
But a thin thread ties you to my heart!
Rakhi...
A festival of brother and sister in india..
A thread (rakhi) representing everlasting bond is tied by the sister on brothers wrist.
I miss my brother who is sick and alone.
But due to my family and Ofc commitments i couldn't be there!
Missing! My brother!

Pain....lesson...recall
Jayantee Khare Mar 2018

through a memory lane,
To dwell not there

Now i am changed
Jayantee Khare Sep 2017
When festivals are in town
I certainly feel down
I too want to flaunt
But memories haunt

Avoiding to socialise
Stay away from noise
Choose to be alone
In my way own

Once life of a party
It is all now history
I wish i could mingle
But still remain single

Unexplained rejections
Shocking deceptions
Friends turned back biter
One lone fighter

Embarrassing moments
Negative judgments
Their unkind acts
Willful neglects

Loss of self esteem
Intentional demean
Turn the spirits off
Made me cut off

Couldn't fill the void
Hence the festivals i avoid
Although I never revenged
But now i am changed!
The mood glooms
When festival booms
Past hurts are reminded
To stay away i am reprimanded

Went to a celebration... wrote this piece while sitting in a lone corner..

Unending love by tagore
Jayantee Khare Jun 2017
Unending Love

I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times…
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,
That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,
In life after life, in age after age, forever.

Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, its age-old pain,
Its ancient tale of being apart or together.
As I stare on and on into the past, in the end you emerge,
Clad in the light of a pole-star piercing the darkness of time:
You become an image of what is remembered forever.

You and I have floated here on the stream that brings from the fount.
At the heart of time, love of one for another.
We have played along side millions of lovers, shared in the same
Shy sweetness of meeting, the same distressful tears of farewell-
Old love but in shapes that renew and renew forever.

Today it is heaped at your feet, it has found its end in you
The love of all man’s days both past and forever:
Universal joy, universal sorrow, universal life.
The memories of all loves merging with this one love of ours –
And the songs of every poet past and forever.
Loved the unending love by gurudev rabindra nath tagore..hence posted here

Come into my life if...
Jayantee Khare Oct 2017
Come into my life,
If you are cosier than
my solitude..

For
The nights are darker enough
to let me unfold my untold,
Stars are shiny enough
to uplift my mood,

Moon is blue enough
to dissolve my blues,
Ink is flowy enough
to open my truth,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Come into my life,
If you harmonize with me
more than the nature.**

For
The water is fluid enough
to let me flow,
The sky is bright enough
to let me glow,

The winds are strong enough
to help me fly,
The mountains are mighty enough
to give me high,
Solitude and nature.....best healer n companions

The Lost laughter
Jayantee Khare Apr 2018
Either occupied or lack of interest
Tell me what is this?
The way seriousness surrounds
Nothing to say? just tight lips!

Wish to have a heartful talk,
To lighten the heavy heart
Let's celebrate the togetherness
And let the laughter have a blast
English translation of my previous hindi poem

**1. You are pure and beautiful souls, have chosen this life path.
2. You are blessed with this life, to spread love, laughter and joy.
3. You are loved by God.
4. Happiness is a choice in your hands.
5. Please exercise the power to make others happy.
Inspired by Star BG's positivity. I hv planned to post such reminders frequently.
Jayantee Khare Sep 2017
Enough of writing
the poems sad,
Seen everything
a lot I had.

Life has offered
a platter of taste,
Sweet sour bitter
nothing goes waste.

Gone through the highs
also seen the lows,
Against all odds
the life flows.

Forgotten the sweetness
but not the anger,
Hurtful moments
we tend to remember.

When the heart breaks
the writings are born,
Pens bleed poems
when the souls are torn.

Most of us write
their pain and hurts,
Express themselves
when the life *****.

Have joined HP
for honest release,
The sadness, hurt,
pain and grief.

It doesn't mean
that we're sad forever,
The happiness exists, but
the pain always takes over.

Uplifting everyone
To make them dance
To spread the love
warmth and romance

Remembering the good
forgetting the wrong,
When shall I write
**The love song?
Jayantee Khare Sep 2018
कुछ अक्स अधूरे नक्स रहे गुम
कुछ आँखें नम कुछ नींद हुई कम
कुछ लफ्ज़ रहे थे कभी अनकहे
कुछ जज्बातों में बेवज़ह कहे

कुछ धड़कन की अजब थी झनझन
कुछ मन की उलझन ख़ुद से अनबन
कुछ याद तुम्हारी कुछ बेक़रारी
कुछ हया हमारी कुछ समझदारी

कुछ कहती वो अपनी खामोशी
कुछ बेख़याली में थी मदहोशी
कब बात बात में बात हो गयी
एक दूजे में दिन रात हो गयी

टूट गयी एक कच्ची डोरी
दिल मिल गए चोरी चोरी
अब इंतेज़ार में दिन है गुजरें
तुम ही बताओ क्या हम करें
Sometimes i write romantic poems.....

I wish for your happy time
Even though when it costs me mine

I wish for your peace
I know it requires my absence

Above all
I pray for your success
Although it builds on my broken pieces

After all
I pray for your luck always
I know it needs my bad days

Above all
I want our parting
I know it will ruin me totally

My divine romance
Jayantee Khare Sep 2019

neither party nights
nor the shining lights
neither music loud
nor happening crowd

neither flaunting clothes
nor updated wardrobes
neither make-up showy
nor glittery jewellery...

love my comfort zone
in my way own
an evening with moon afar
a night under twinkly stars

give me a peaceful corner
and a pen with paper
in a candle dim
the thoughts sing

the words dance
a poetic chance
a divine romance
the onset of a trance...


not sad
not even mad
all scars healed completely
with the time and distance
but undergone a metamorphosis
to transform my inner self
to reform my being
While the world is in festive mood,
I'm enjoying the solitude...

Feel deep
Jayantee Khare Apr 2017
My words are not just rhymes
They are the promise i keep

Yes i do have lighter time
But soon those moments seep

Later i ponder upon and feel them
Dissect them before i sleep

I am crowded but in solitude
Because i perceive and feel deep
Jayantee Khare Feb 2018
Sitting under the sky
away from the crowd
This Valentine's day
no music loud

Neither chocolates
Nor dinner cosy
Just aroma of coffee
No fragrance rosy

Talk heartful with
the moon and stars
Showing my heart's
deepest hidden scars

Praying to the God
to help me to heal
To remind my heart
to not to feel
Just spilling thoughts

Mind travels
Jayantee Khare Sep 2017
Peace everywhere
Tough time is passed
Smooth are the roads
All hurdles crossed

Happy in her world
Living in the now
Enjoying the life fully
Moved on somehow

The loved ones surround
Everything is a bliss
Nothing seems wrong
But something is amiss

Music and dance
Heartily she revels
The strings entangled
Yet she unravels

Fights in the mind
With her own devils
Back and forth the lanes
"The mind travels"
Today wrote another poem
At the same corner
Of the celebration
On the same theme
Little positive today!

Relations....
Jayantee Khare Feb 2018
Some relations,
Glittery like a glass,
But scatter with a mild hit,
Hurt if you try to gather them back!

Others,
Last like a diamond,
Shine bright when chiseled,
Prove their worth with passing time!

कुछ रिश्ते
शीशे की तरह चमकदार होते है
हल्की चोट से बिखर जाते हैं
समेटो तो और चुभन पहुंचाते हैं.....

कुछ ताल्लुक़ात
हीरे की तरह सदाबहार होते हैं
वक़्त के साथ और निखर जाते हैं
मुश्किलों की कसौटी पे तराशे जाते हैं....
Just thought!

The office in mayhem...
Jayantee Khare Aug 2017
The heart~
Not so cognizant,
Files each moment,
Compiles the document,
Tags them tight,
Flags all bright!

The mind~
Everything  it rewinds,
Junk moments it finds,
To the heart it reminds,
To  unthread  nicely,
To shred them wisely!

The heart and the mind~**
Together they act,
When the heart is incorrect,
The mind takes up to direct,
Both  work in tandem,
The office in mayhem!
The heart n mind both play
Win or loose someday
This is inspired by Sarita Aditya Varma's recent write "ProcessOr"
Jayantee Khare Jul 2017
The story of their life
is nearing the *** end,
The graph of the health
has a sharp descend.....
The world is rushing
it's own race,
Their lives don't flow
at that pace...

Possessing a rich and gorgeous
past to share,
But hardly find anyone
to give an ear.....
Chicks flew away
in pursuit of their quest,
The elder couple
is lonely in their nest....

Meditation, yoga
and the doctor's visits
Are prioritizing their
"to do" lists....
Waiting for festivals,
when kids pay visit.
Their childhood moments,
the minds revisit.....

Memories fading,
limbs poorly coordinating.
Hearts are weary,
heavy,
yet pulsating....
Unknown emptiness,
deep melancholy.
Splendid dwellings,
screaming loudly.....

Eagerly wait to meet
with other elderly,
To accompany on the walks,
and to talk heartily......
Relaxing and rejuvenating
laughter at the sunset.
The sun sets daily,
the hopes are alive yet...........
On my daily evening walks i come across many elderly couples and singles.
Most of them have their children settled elsewhere mostly abroad.
I see them strolling and laughing together but i could perceive the shadow of loneliness behind their laughter.
I was inspired to write this during one of my evening walks when  i saw them celebrating birthdays together.

Goodread/ painkiller
Jayantee Khare Nov 2017
Emotions of turmoil
Seldom do they recoil
Anger reprised
Health compromised

Hurtful a memory
Few loved ones now a history
Hated by some
Yet, loved by many

Try and locate the haters on the Earth
Even the tip of a pencil, is thick to mark
In efforts we must never lack
A progress sure, when we look back

Let's shower our love on this universe
And don't mind if it soaks our haters
Radiate a light of love into all dark closets
Let it take away the sadness of all poets

Let's love ourselves first
Spreading it comes next
To balance our karmic account
with the people we surround
Friends! We are leading our respective lives as a part of prior agreements at soul level. We are balancing our karma with people we meet n part. We do have setbacks hearbreaks n pain. If this life is not enough or cut shortened, same circumstances will be repeated in next lifetime. Till the soul learns the lessons. Let's forgive people n see higher purpose in everything.  Let's face everything n grow through it. Each of us is pure soul. No one is less or inferior. Let's be happy being to spread it around. I wish this makes the readers feel positive n uplifts their mood.

The karmic connection
Jayantee Khare Feb 2019
layer by layer
the life we share
shade by shade
the bond is being made

day by day
ensured the stay
bit by bit
we unknowingly commit

words by words
revealed the inwards
moment by moment
validation of the agreement

here, for a while let's hold
understand the untold
the love, growing in manifolds
for miracles the time unfolds

ups and downs
pros and cons
dusks and dawns
never alter the divine plans

beyond righteousness or wrongdoing
let the stream flowing
the life is ephemeral
but our connection is eternal....

Jugnu,
The love sees no boundaries...
The pause for a cause is must,
Which strengthens the bond...

The moments
Jayantee Khare Dec 2018
The moments....

Slip like the sand
Never come back

Hurt like the eye dust
Pass like a caravan

Err in the seconds
Punish for years

Fluid like the streams
Yet stuck in breath

Fragrant like the flowers
Scatter like the petals

People say no comeback
Yet peep in the thoughts and dreams

रेत की तरह फिसलते लम्हे
लौट के कहाँ आ सके लम्हे

धूल की तरह आँख में चुभे
कारवां रहे गुज़रते  लम्हे

दी सज़ा मुझे साल की कई
बार बार क्यों ज़ुल्म करते लमहे

धार में बहे वक़्त की रवां
साँस में मग़र अटकते लमहे

महकते रहे फूल से खिले
पंखुड़ी बने बिखरते लमहे

लौटते नहीं लोग ये कहें
ख़ाब ख़्याल में झाँकते लम्हे

A way to release
The moments I freeze
A chatter I couldn't cease
When nothing to appease
I wandered like an idiot
Came across HP by Elliot

On HP we socilise
The might of pen we realise
What if my poems don't trend?
My passion doesn't end....
No sunshine not given light
Yet HP has taken me to a new height

"Daily" never selected
Yet people appreciated
Made friends across the globe
Found a new ray of hope
A plateform for poetry
Love you dear HP!
Wrote few lines    Just to express my gratitude.....

Dam too inspired me....
Jayantee Khare Aug 2017
God made rivers to flow!
Never stop, ahead they go!
By making the dam,
humans trying to tam.

The water, thus conserved,
To serve the mankind, it's reserved.
The earth, is nourished!
The life, is flourished!

Dam too has a limit
To hold the force hydraulic,
Then to release it gradually
Using the force controllably,
If unreleased, then catastrophic
Flushes out!
Washes out!
Lashes out!
Everything!!

Learn to hold your inherent power,
and release in a controlled manner.
**Be a reservoir of emotions
upto a limit!
and utilize them constructively
for benefit!
Self restraint on our emotions is "damming them", and then releasing them constructive manner is "power generation"...maybe through poetry or other art,  but do not hold them beyond limit to avoid disaster...

Burn the bridge...
Jayantee Khare Jul 2017
Once

Someone said,
never burn a bridge,

But

I say few bridges are
beyond repair
are meant
to be burnt,
to be swallowed,
by liberating fire, and
to be watched turning to ashes..

For

there are always,
few other ways,
to cross the waterways,

Or

There is another river,
to be crossed over,
by a bridge,
which is under repair,

And

Reinforce that other bridge,
Address that ridge,
Work on that bridge,
which abridges
The more important path
of
eternal union
Few old dilapidated bonds serve no purpose.. reviewed by putting the pieces differently and changing the own perpective.
Sometimes such bonds may be ignored to address other important bonds.
Or simply to liberate...

To hibernate
To liberate
Wanna be autonomous
Wanna go unconscious
Wanna be anonymous
