Life without hurdles and choices
Is not full of royces

You are in the world of two faces
Right and wrong
Good and bad
Sadness and happiness
Peace and war
So many more chores

These go with you like your shadows
You cannot make them go away
Until you trapped in a total dark way

Rivers don't have a plan
To follow a particular span

It starts at begining and keeps on moving
Keeps on changing

It has to move on
To make life on earth full on
Flora and fauna goes on

In the end it reaches its final destination

It is not important of your changes you made

Important is its journey and final destination where you stayed.
Dedicated to my son to whom I lovingly use to call ladoo Gopal

You promised me a golden ring
I gave you my silver ring

You brought me in a lavish house
I was missing my airy house

You gave me food in golden palate
I was missing food on leaf palate

You gave me bed of poses
I was missing my bed on roses

You gave me air tickets to fly
I was missing road side sky

You gave me every thing of your choice
I was finding my voice
missed in your noise

You gave me many coins
I was struggling place to join

You took my wings of expression
I looked for my reflection

You made me an object of museum
I want you to return my freedom
Dedicated to one friend finding her freedom

I met a family
In the life of train

South Indian mother
North Indian father
With a handsome son
As bright as sun

We smiled and met each other
We shared our food
We shared our things

We sent our morning wishes
We planned for new wings

Suddenly train stopped with a ****
It came to halt

We surprised
Was this the place to depart?

We had to move with our bags
In opposite directions of track

Looking back to each other
With mixed emotions of sepration

For sure it was not a journey  of train

"Where is no fear to disaffiliate"

Just after marriage
He took me to the roof of his house
Situated at the foothills of Shivalik

It was dark and clear night
Stars were twinkling in the sky

He showed me light coming from the houses on the hills

They looked like sparkling diamonds on the ring

He said"That is Kasauli looking like a beautiful lady wearing a glittering sari.

This is place full of scenic beauty with lush greenery.

We both will go on tracks to enjoy the life"

I smiled and nodded

Till today 25 years I spent
Still Waiting for his promise to ment

I spread my both hands
Looked up to the sky
as a bird fly

Asked myself
"Is this the way to embrace the sky"

I spread my both hands
Lying down the earth

And asked again
"Is this the way to sprinkle happiness on the earth"

How should I?
I kept on lying

Closed my eyes and fell asleep

Inner voice spread the light
Over the sky, On the earth

"Spread the love everywhere"
"Spread the love everywhere "

On the sea shore of love
Foot prints of my son
I saw and thought

"They will be washed away by the high tides of time"

I left the place and went away.

Today sitting alone
Having fear of loosing  footprints

Turned the pages of life
They were as fresh as today

I looked up to horizon
He was smiling at me

I closed my eyes to click the sight

He whispered in my ear 'ma'

I looked around here
He disappeared from there.

SHE
She is a lady with elegance.

Fond of getting ready and clicking a picture.

I love the way she is

She is a strong mother with clear vision for her child.

I love the way she is.

She must have passed through deadly pains for her son.

But she emerged as winner.

She brought her son back from the clutches of death.

I love the way she is.

She is simple and sober.
Intelligent and confident.

"One in a million"

I love the way she is.
Dedicated to my friend
