Mother Nature

The drops fell down-
On the burning sun…
The wind blew by
And spoilt its fun…!

Nature had its way
Of sending them all to play
For when unity they show
Earth is blessed with a rainbow…!

Standing there I thought
Why would have the sun, rain and breeze fought…?
Reason known to none may be
Only the outcome we feel and see…!

As if mother nature
Is wanting to preach
The lesson of Unity
She wants them to teach…!

Finally the three
Might have cleared all the fight
Hence Mother nature is happy
showing us a beautiful sight…!

And we here sitting down
Always cry and frown
Not knowing what it takes
When united its beautiful
And in selfishness even the Earth shakes..!!!

Kalam

Mai kalam hu!
haan.. haan mai kalam hu..
tum hath ghumate ho,
aur mai tumhare tal se tal milakar – likhta challa jata hu..

Haan.. mai kalam hu!
tumhare khushi me khush,
tumhare dukh me dukhi mai ho jata hu,
tumhare dil ke har rang ko – mai kagaz ke panno par lekar aata hu..!

Haan mai kalam hu!
Khoon ki ek bund bhi nahi lagti hai mujhpe,
magar insaan ko puri tarah se
tood ne ki takat mai rakhta hu..!

Talwaro se lakh zindagiya
tabah ho magar
dil ke har taklif ko dur karne ki
takat lekar mai chata hu..!

Haan mai kalam hu….!

Aabhiman nahi garv hai mujhe
aapne iss fitrat pe ..
bina kuch bole hi mai
lakho ko sunna ne ki kabiliyat rakhta hu

Haan mai kalam hu…!

Na shabd mere hote hai,
na hote hai mere sawal jawab.
Mai toh hu ek mehanti gulam,
aur mere lekhak hi hai mere nawab..!

Issi soch ko lekar mai,
aapna jeewan guzar leta hu…
mai kalam hu mere yaaro,
lo, aaj mai aapni ye dasta tumhe sunata hu…!

Haan mai wahi kalam hu jo humesa sath tumhare rehta hu…!

A letter to you…

How do I cage you?
Into words ….
That will sleep,
in a book closed tight,
and will soon go out of sight!

How do I cover you?
For your potential – is far beyond.
Which guard do I order,
to ensure you do not ponder?

Like a butterfly,
wondering in search of something good,
you keep jumping-
wherever you could!

I am scared of
the plight you take,
I am worried of the outcome,
it will make.

Sharp as knife,
bold as fire.
how do I curtail,
your sapphire?

Oh mind… oh mind
your travel tires me,
a small gap of break,
and you are set out on –
an imaginary spree…!

Can we sit and talk?
Decide once and for all..
I want to slowly walk,
and you want to run out at every call…!

We need to settle for once,
at a suitable speed..!
I hope all that I am writing –
makes sense when you read.

So this time – on our date
let’s sit and talk.
oh and no escaping –
and do not act like you are shocked!

I’m listing my complaints -for us to resolve.
You can come up with yours.
Let’s be each other’s doctor
and come up with the cures…!

Don’t be quick to wake a hi !
don’t leave without saying a bye…
When someone you hate speaks –
do not show your emotions with a sigh!

Don’t assume they will know,
don’t be afraid of emotions to show.
Don’t judge by what they say,
don’t get fooled – by their way…!

Don’t hide your tears,
don’t run from your fears.
Don’t bury your dreams,
don’t shut your screams…!

Don’t laugh just for the sake
no one is worth the take.
Don’t stick when it pricks,
some cracks – do not have a fix…!

Don’t hurry to win it all
don’t be ashamed when you fall.
If you are tired of running, just rest
you are expected to live your life
and you get to the decide – what for you is the best…!

Don’t let others tell,
what you did well.
For only you know better
how many times you fell…!

Don’t look happy –
when you are not.
It is okay for people to know
that you have fought…!

It is your life,
and you do not need to hop…!
Experience it all here
even if it means – you have to stop.

Hold on while you can,
For most of your life, you have already ran!
Take a stroll and enjoy every emotion
please always remember –
that YOU are a worth creation…!

Let’s talk… Dad

I fell down
And you held me
Wiping my tears
You taught me how to fight my fears…

I crawled, walked and finally ran
When I turned back, I saw you
Cheering and clapping
Saying, come on my child – you can..!

I never asked –
How have you been?
For no one more stronger
Than you, I have seen…!

When days were hard
And ends were very tough to be met
You ensured I had enough of everything
And you – were hungry yet…!

When I had to lean
You gave me your shoulder
When I became weak
You made me stronger and bolder…!

You never said, you loved me
But your actions said it all.
You were ready to sleep on the ground
To ensure I do not ever fall…!

Never did I make any efforts
To know your path and pain
But I always silently noticed
The wrinkles on your forehead caused by the stress and strain…!

I knew you wont share your story
For you fear, it will reduce your glory
But to me you will always be the same
Struggle and loss are just a part of the game…!

So today dad,
Lets come a step closer
Lets peep a bit deeper
Lets talk a bit longer…!

I have always seen you bare the load
I suggest you pass some to me
Together we can pull it better, may be
Give me a chance and we will see…!

I love you dad
Let me say it loud
I am proud to have you in my life
For you are the best man in my life’s crowd..!

The bicycle of your relation
Needs a bit of oiling
Lets release off the tension
Come on Paa, lets have a chat,
the weather is wet outside and
the tea to accompany our chat is hot and boiling…

I am..

I am laughter
I am the cry..
I am truth
I am the lie..!

I am me
And not what you see..
I am much more
Than known to you four..!

I am deep
I am peace..
I may be stressed
But may still look at ease..!

I am glory
I am fun..
I may be suffering
And choose to show none..!

I am divine
I am pure..
I may be hurt
And still wish to be your cure…!

I am so you
You are so me..
Then why should we assume
With only so much – we can see?

I am tough
I am hard..
I may feel scared
Still want you to have a guard..!

I am water
That takes its shape..
I am of the colour
That the situation has to drape…

You judge me not
For I may be more…
Always remember –
Each of the wave experiences
A different sight of the shore..!!!

Now I know…

Now I know
My walls speak
Forming a tune – with that leak…!!

Now I know
Why my plants die,
Not having anyone to wave them a hi…!!

Now I know
There are cracks on my roof?!
I am staying at home – this is a proof..!!

Now I know
How to sweep and cook
At my own house, where- and for what to look..!!

Now I know
The cost of oil and rice
Now I know
How to pick whatever is worth the price…!!

Now I know
Shopping for home utilities –
Can be exciting too,
But not really
When you wait at the billing queue..!!

Now I know
Why mom often calls (2)
She must be tired
Of speaking to the walls..!!

Now I know
Why my dad is irate
Dealing with retirement
After so many years of being in a busy state..!!

Now I know
My best friend is me
Yeah its me..!
I am by myself
Whatever the condition be…!!

Now I know
That when silence sings
You will no more enjoy
The buzzers and telephone rings…!!

Lockdown it is
That has made me realize
Life is so exciting
Loving and nice . !!

Thank you papa God
For you made me find
The only good thing
That a virus could bring…!!

So my dear friends,

While you are still locked down
You should look around
For many sweet memories that were lost
May now be found…!!!

And with this thought
I leave you right there
Stay distant to all
While with memories you stroll…!!

Dost

Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain
Hasa na paye toh kya huva
fizul ki baaten karke , har gam ye bhulate hai…!!

Khudgarzi inhe aati nahi
Sharafat toh ye jaante hi nahi
Lakh galiyan ye dete hai lekin
Dost k khatir mar mit jaate hai..
Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain…!!

Tere kapdon se lekar
Teri maa tak ko ye apna banate hain
Tere ghar wale jise nalayak samzhe
Vahi toh pakke yaar kehelate hain…
Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain…!!

Tehelna tuzhe jo pasand na ho
Toh kya farak inhe padta hai
Dosti mai toh dost k khatir
Napasand se bhi man lagana padta hai…
Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain…!!

Jab dur chale jate hai ye
Inki yaadein hume satati hain
Satana toh jaise hakk ho inka
Ye har kadam isse nibhate hain…
Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain..!!

Dil tuta ho ya tuti ho takdir
Ye sath tumhara nibhate hain
Phir usi sath ka vasta dekar
Ye tumse kya kya nahi karvate hain…
Ye dost nahi dawa hai sahab
Jo har dard mitate hain…
Ye har dard mitate hain…!!!

Womanhood

They denied us a stage
We created a whole platform for ourselves
They denied education
We formed separate universities for ourselves..!!

They said u bleed
Hence weaker you are
With our own will
We showed them we are at-par..!!!

They said oh girl
You can’t match up to us
We managed to lead them
Without any fuss..!!!

They tried to control
And said u have limit
We said we can Excell everywhere
And proved to win in any field be it..!!!

They put us down
We stood back stronger
They wanted to rule
But hey.. a Queen is already a ruler…!!!

They have always put hurdles
We crossed them with ease
Hey society –
Do you need some of our courage on lease!!! 😛

We women are power
We women are strength
Kudos to womanhood
Kudos to each one – by us who stood..!!!

As friend, as spouse,
As runner of the house,
As daughter, as mom
For her family she can bare any storm
As student, as a colleague
She puts her best leg at every league..!

Many roles to play
But she royally makes her way
She has proven herself enough
Regardless of what people have to say..!

Lets wish her all the best
For she demands only equality with the rest
Lets not pull her down anymore
Let her display all the talent she has in store..!!!
