The Prayer of Lights...


Across the globe, I send out a Prayer of Lights...
A Prayer of Hope,
That will make the darkness in our hearts elope...

A prayer for my dear ones...
A prayer, that reaches out to everyone...

A prayer that brings peace...
A prayer that makes you belief...

As the hymns begin to reverberate...
The being seeks to exhilarate...

The soul looks up to the lighted sky...
It can feel its wings, the soul wants to fly...

For fly it shall...
It has the path that'll light up & tell...

The path, the guide...
It shows the way to the bright side...

As the chants surround me...
I can feel the tautness vanishing, it doesn't hound me...

As all chant & pray...
The Prayer of Light will not let them sway...

It shall bestow prosperity...
Shower happiness, take away heart's poverty...

As I send across the globe...
A Prayer of Light, a prayer of hope...

I cross my heart...
I pray...For Hope...

Wishing a prosperous & Happy Diwali to all...

It's Lurking Round The Corner...

As the time ticks by...
I can feel it in the wind that passes me by...

The fragrance has begun to permeate...
It is adding glitter wherever it disseminates...

The emotions are aroused, they are getting stronger...
I can feel it near me, it's lurking round the corner...

The rays of the sol have dimmed...
My flagon for happiness is almost full, it's nearing the rim...

A soft breeze caresses my face...
It tells me- "Slow down! It's the time to celebrate..."

The charm of the glowing lights...
The nights shining bright...

The thought of the upcoming festivities...
Is keeping me awake at night...

As happiness infuses around me...
It casts a dreamy spell, it surrounds me...

I look forward to each day...
I am living each moment, that is here to stay...

The thoughts of the days coming by...
Make me smile- "There would be so much to enjoy..."

For those who are a part of my being...
I welcome you all to my world of festive dreams...

I welcome you all to the gala celebration...
The celebration of life, of happiness, of togetherness there after...

Come enjoy with me...
The world of festivities is lurking just round the corner...

A Blast From The Past...


A whiff of wind came and it brought back the past...
Good, bad, ugly. It was a blast from the past...

It tugged at the stitches...
Spilling memories, sealed within the seams...

I remembered what I had, how it changed & what I had left behind...
Why every now and then, life loves to rewind...

From a rosey red to a monochrome...
Now I look back & realize, life has changed its tone...

When a ring tinkles the phone...
It turns out to be from someone, you have known...

The greetings were warm...
It seemed we knew each other for long...

But before we realized...
Starting to brew, there was a storm...

Its dust engulfed, what I cherished...
It left behind, all that was wrong...

It uproted me from hearth...
Oh Gosh! It was very strong...

Not everything that breaks...
Can be mended, with grace...

Two broken pieces of glass...
Even if joined back, would never be as clear...

With a failing bid to bury back...
What the storm had unearthed...

I bow to the caretakers of memories...
Hold back, steer clear...

The cycle of time holds for a while...
I wonder why...it never fails to rewind...

One storm would subside...
Another would brew up...

A whiff of wind will blow...
It shall bring back the past...

I don't know what to say...
Coz it would be the blast from the past...
