rain

Rain through a live Palantir…

Walking along the tiled floor, through the shaded doors, under the canopy of clouds, I feel the rain! The splashing water turbulence, the broken silence of crickets, through the chilled breeze, I feel the rain!        Across the window panes, the clattering water buzzes, through the thrill of thunder, I feel the rain! Walking on the …

SILENCE

Silence they say is a virtue, It brings peace to your mind, And calm to your heart. It is a chapter so golden, That it gives a new start, To the worn out body, And to the tired mind, It is a touch, Of tender and kind. It’s not very hard To define silence, It …

World of my dreams

I want to see world of my dreams, Where I want, every child is able to play; At the end of the day, in mattress lay; And not looking for work, to get pay. I want to see world of my dreams, To see everyone following their dreams; Enriching themselves with knowledge, To become pioneer …

सपने

बादल के एक कोने में, पलकों को अपनी मूँद, अपनी बारी का इंतज़ार करती , थी मैं एक छोटी सी बूँद. जा मिलना था मुझे उस गिरती बारिश के साथ, पहुँचना था धरा, करनी थी सपनों से बात. घूमना था ख़ानाबदोश सा मुझे, बनके नदिया का पानी, या फिर सागर के तल जा, सुलझानी थी …

That fading face

Unknown faces daily travel down my memory lane, Some have the warmness of life, Some have the betrayal of life, Most are enjoying as it comes, Few insist hard to make a change, But that fading face is hard to forget, It had some unusual tale to tell, Its oceanic eyes with years of truth, …

Paranoia-A Critique

Paranoia-A Critique

We have entered the third millennium through a gate of fire. If today, after the horror of 11 September, we see better, and we see further — we will realize that humanity is indivisible.New  threats  make  no  distinction  between  races,  nations  or  regions.  A  new  insecurity  has entered every mind, regardless of wealth or status. …

A Reason to Love…..

When you are in love… The stars shine, in their nature pristine… The flowers blossom, in their nature divine… Across the world, the storms that blow Touch your heart with a speed so slow… When you are in love… What a piece of crap, the guy thought. He was sitting beside a lovey-dovey couple, eavesdropping …
