Let me be free from this mirage of life Let me escape  without any blight Remove my shackles bound so tight Let me flee.... .....into the light This bliss of silence is all I seek and forever unto that I want to cleave.

My sister in Mangalore asked for a poem to be written on the topic Fantasy of Life. It is based on my earlier poems on 'Perspective of Life' but this is what I came up with: Poet: The azure blue sky with white cottony clouds  sea kissing the beach’s mouth  miniature rainbows illuminating through dew drops the sound of a horse-clippety clop, clippety clop! “Ah Me! My ultimate fantasy....”

Hello Everyone! Sorry for my absence over such a prolonged period of time...You would better get used to it because my exams are coming on soon and I won't be on the blogworld very frequently for these two months(lolzz).

One of my first books as a child was the Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tales that were gifted to me by Mama. I grew up with 'Cinderella', 'Sleeping Beauty', 'Beauty and the Beast', 'Thumbelina', 'The Emperor's new clothes', 'Goldilocks' as everyone else. 'Alice in wonderland' was surprisingly one of the last books I read as I entered into teens(before shifting to Enid Blytons). As is usually

Looked at the morning sky so blue so vast felt rejuvenated. Heard the first chirp of the birds so sweet so melodious felt happy .

I don't know how to begin this post....I am really really angry. Traffic sense in my city...there is just one word for it-'atrocious'!I am still a novice at driving the car, so papa accompanies me each time. Driving today, I almost got clobbered twice; what makes me indignant is that it was not my fault-people are blatantly jumping red lights without even glancing at the traffic policemen

I can't seem to stop chewing toffee whenever one pops in my mouth(whether by mistake or by choice, is another long story of course).

Watching the news today, I was gladdened to note that Mr. Barack Obama has registered a convincing win in the American elections and will be taking the presidential Oath in January. It is a great achievement not only for millions of Blacks the world over but also for the thousands of minorities living in various countries.It is of course a red-letter day for America and thousands of

I was reading last month's Reader's Digest Joy when I came across an article titled 'Women we admire'. Mother Teresa was second on the list. I confess I was a little disappointed-she should have been first. The first was Princess Diana (not that SHE is not some one to admire but I still think Mother Teresa's contribution to the society was much more than any Princess who came into limelight just

Its 12:00 am and my eyes are open....sleep seems to be miles away. I don't know what to do.Suddenly, I get up and in frustration start putting all the clocks and watches in the room away in the innermost corner of my cupboard! Funny, I know but can't think of anything else at that moment which could help me to sleep! The constant 'tick-tock' of the clock was always my companion every night but

This is one of my favourite compositions by Mama: He stands/sits on the beautiful stool facing the main doorway with both his arms flung up in the air, pot-belly hanging out, laughing uncontrollably.What could be the reason for such a glee? IS IT PURE HAPPINESS? Perhaps he is happy to see another new day with the sun shining gloriously in the azure blue sky, birds chirping in the trees,kids

Two Nations, same peopleTwo bodies, same heartsTwo Countries, same storiesTwo organs, same breath...Then why do we indulge in this senseless slaughter?Then why do we build thick fences of mortar?Its not difficult to forge a friendshipbecause we HAVE lived several years in kinship.Its the last hundred years that have jolted us aparttaking away the bonding of our hearts.'Divide and rule' -they

Well Hello? What happened to my English?-you might say. Actually I have tried to bring out the pronounciation of two very beautiful American children in this one sentence! Today I got an exciting news..one of my very dear friends got engaged! I was so happy for her [ and sad for me..of course :(..we will be parted very soon!].It's her fiance's sister's children that I am talking about here. All

Here's another of the essays that I wrote. I would really like your feedback on this one:Guru Nanak Dev Ji once said:Why do we call her bad, she who gave birth to kings?This can be considered to be a very poignant question considering the time and scenario. It is widely known that when Guru Ji put forth his views regarding the condition of women in the society, he was well aware of their plight

Here is an essay that I wrote for practice when I participated in a competition.Hope you like it :)“Man is a social animal” is a cliché sentence that one gets to hear almost everywhere. The truth of this statement can be gauged from the fact that even several years after “cave-man” understood the benefits of mutual interaction and social living; he still continues to revel in these merits while

"Happy Anniversery Mom and Dad"is what you saywith expensive gifts and cardsthat might have come your way.Then you run on with your own life,never for a moment thinking of your parent's strife.They worked hard for you night and dayhelping you keep all your problems at bay.Then on their very special day,you fulfil your duty by giving gifts and walking away?Time passes and your birthday

In the tinkling of a bell,in the gurgling sounds of water in the well,and in the home where I dwell,there echoes-laughter.In the chirping of birds on trees,In the clashing of the keys,and in the soft humming of the bees,there resonates- laughter.The lively cry of a baby,the quietly swaying daisy,swishing trees in a groove shady,all signify-laughter.So, laugh aloud ; laugh afreshwith hopes anew
