Analogies



Analogies

Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE


The shining ray of sunny corona
Hailing the azure infinitely high
In reverence of the heaven above
Divided by the vanilla horizon
From the fathomic blues
Where the Lord Neptune resides

Rays of hopes and optimism
Holds on to Faith divine
Unsynchronized rythms of heart and mind
Laid on horizons of quests
Divided is fancy Myth
From the bitter truth and the real

The ship sets on sail
A voyage to find the land
Waves and turmoils scare its fleet
But the crew steadies its keel
Night and days, amidst winds and rains
Runs its course till it finds the way

Lifes a ride, a long one per se
Directions to choose and an aim
With obstacles to fight
You learn to stand
With every failure
You realize there is another new way!

The sun stands still, but celestials revolve
Even the earth runs the full orbit
With new beginnings of Spring
Exuberance of Summer follows
Autumn dries and kills with fall
Winters are for laying in peace

The mind is still, but influenced by thoughts
It abides the four season rule:
Born are new ideas
Enthused to work
Despaired by defeat
Seeking solace unless it finds the peace

The birds they cant speak, but melodiously sing
The trees never walk, but do stand and wait
The river hurries up downhill, do not reside
The leaves together, all are green
The earth has no edges, but flat and round
The sky somewhere surely touches the ground

Talents and deeds speak out loud
Patience earns you honour and respect
Past is gone, Present is where we Live
Love and Hope binds us all
Where pride has not build its nest
Humble is the happy soul

Mind: The Pandora's Box


Mind: The Pandora's Box
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE
Most intriguing is ones mind
Travels faster than light!
Chooses its wrongs
And believes its rights
Questions and doubts are its favourite child
Once calm as a sea, can go all wild like the tide
Knows not whether to rule over or benevolently abide
Fights an eternal battle with the heart
Curious database with logical rhymes
Yet again imagination, fancies have all here a start
Good, weird, wicked, artistic...call what you may
Its one pandora’s box , very unpredictable  in every way!

Inkaar ki gunjayish hi kahaan
Jab tak daastaan-e-dil karoon na bayaan
Zanjeerein ya deewarein kya roke mujhe
Khudi se range thhe jo khatoot-e-khwaab!

Murjhaye huye khwaaabon ka gulistaan
Suna bada, pada hai viraan
Kahaan use samjha thha khuda
Miraaj paas aayi to dikha ek aam insaan

Bewafaa unhe kya kahein...
Jab wafa-e-mohabbat khud kara na izhaar
Waqt ne sunayi saza-e-maut uss khwahish ko
Jisse kabhi mila hi nahin makaanm

Kisi manzil se kyun baandhe dor khwahishon ki?
Kyun chale peeche chhoote raahon par
Nayi raaston ke talaash mein hai nigaahein ab
Mil jaaye Khuda to jahaan ho ikhtiyaar-e-roshan

If Only


If Only
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE
If only, water ignited fire
If only, sky was beneath earth
If only, the sessile walked
If only, colors were just black and white
If only, left turned right
If only, dark was brighter than lights
If only, all wrongs were rights
If only, insane was sanity
If only, seasons never changed
If only, end was the beginning
If only, the brain ruled over heart
If only, my silence was audible
If only, my strength was not a weakness

Antiparallel


Antiparallel
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE
To count all stars from the night sky
A useless aim, so meaningless
To live a life yet not breathe the air
Sheer mortal foolishness
To dream of miracles and heavenly grace
An open eyed dream of castles in the air
To fall in love is not a charming spell
But a heartfelt will you made yourself
To create a God of an ordinary man
Is a colorful portrait you sketch yourself
To fall down and feel the pain
Teaches you how to rise up again
To climb the mounts in miles uphill
Why even try if u've to return to dusty grounds
The river ripples and runs its course
Although it eventually turns into vapoury clouds
To live a life with all righteousness
Wheres the fun if u’ve made no mistakes!
Lifes a ride, mix of good & bad surprise
Enjoying the run on two antiparallel tracklines
