Portrait of Life: Rang-e-saaz

Haasil kya hai karna, 

kya mukammal nahin maloom

Manzil guzarte karwaan jaise 

Kahin kho gaye wo junoon

Waqt ke daayron mein

Uljhe huye ulfat aur ummeedein

Kahin roshni, kahin syahi andher se 

Rang-e-saaz hai ye zindagi

Women's Day

 

cherish being you 

cherish being me

cherish & treasure equality

diverse in thoughts 

diverse in strength

diverse to dream the same

choose the pinks

or choose the blue

no hue can define nor confine you

inspiring icons

aspiring hopes

no bounds no ropes

breaking the glass ceiling

Women in every role!!

Impermanence

From one of many buds

One flower blooms

A vibrant color show

For the birds, bees and drones

And every eyes that beauty beholds

Following the shiny sun-ray roads

An impermanent story told

Of one so surrounded yet very alone

To whither but not old

The decaying despondent soul

Spring Again

Spring Again

Bare branches, 

Again full of new hope

Tufts of new flower blooms

Vibrant in colors of blush pinks

Just like a rainbow

When rainy clouds adieu

The humming songs

Now louder than croaky toads

Blanket of blue sky

Warmer and more azure

The greys fade away

Snow unfurls and float

The sprite of breeze

Cheers the sun and advent of Spring anew!

Introspective

Introspective

A point of time very undefined

Not happy heart nor heavy nor sad

Moment of passive inert clouds

No specific horizon nor grey doubts

A dimension beyond this realm

Maybe it has or maybe not yet named

Unfound, undiscovered, mysteriously latent

Like the rainbow ends or the ocean its landed!!

Questions galore and thoughts to ponder

Calm clouds after rain, hiding the clapping thunders

As restless benthic yearns to catch a shine

From the blinding depths of the still brine

Charms of solitude, for a while a reclusive

Once upon a chance to reflect and be introspective..
