I belong to you

Under the starry sky
or beneath the roofed walls
I accompany you

In the crowded trains
or business class planes
I am along with you

The message beep
or the phone's tring
I feel it too

The typed words
or the quite words
I long to express to you

In the candle light with friends
or the disco night trends
I smile with you

A child's play
or potters clay
I get molded by you

The famines
or the floods
I fight it with you

The duty frames
or time constraints
I strengthen along with you

Difficult terrains
or the easy plains
I behold you

The petal beds
or the battle reds
I cry with you

A rigged personnel
or a jeans gentlemen
I belong to you

Rain Drops are falling on my head

Raindrops are falling on my head
paper boats are sailing on the water stream
Tea with you, am i dreaming or is it true?

Walk by the moonlight at 3,
you were there to hold me through.
The brick lanes, the dizzy steps and the salty smell,
and the light that shone on your face.
You, my loveliness! are you true?
As everything seems so new.

So I wonder, how you in this lovely night
would react if I ask, you to be mine.
Will you laugh and say goodnight or
would you smile and hug me tight.

Handmade

Handmade paper,
textured nature and the crease,
on the off white sheet
holds the love of pen
with the flowing ink.

A Lady to be

It is a lot of efforts to create something

It is very easy to destroy something

A girl at her 18 is a lady in making

a lady like poise, though the world is new

With the adolescence gone, she makes it through

The phase when she appears to be a woman

Ready for marriage, she is still a lady in making

Her dreams and confusions still keep pace

With her growing age

More complex becomes the world

When proposals come too

A young and vibrant, vivacious woman she is

And unique in her ways too

Desired by all for her age

She is not ready as she is still a lady to be.

Honeymoon

A huge open window
Pale white and cream curtains
Swaying with the cold breeze
A slight cool on my shoulder
I shiver a little and slide
to the one sleeping beside
His arms tug me inside
the forehead frown subside
He gently kisses my head
I look up to see him look outside
the window with his big eyes
I see the bright moons reflection in them
So close is he and the moon to me
I wake-up saying Honey - moon!

Dreams

Dreams are not real
but not less than reality
My senses work when I am asleep
I see, I touch, I feel, I listen, I talk, I shout, I cry and I laugh
Sometimes I am the third person
Sometimes it is my vision
A chain of dreams
A train with the boggy of thoughts
Everyday new ones
short shots and stories of different sorts
Stories till they become facts
Dreams until they become real
Mind brings and links
explanations & meanings!
Some say I dream a lot
and some - Oh! you remember!
yes I do; I remember because it makes me think,
it challenges.
As sometimes the dreamworld you want to live in
drives you to keep working..

दोनों ओर प्रेम पलता है

This is my favourite hindi poem; we had it in our 10th grade and since that time I am in love with this one! Today I was going through my collections and I found it; my lost love! It was written by Maithili Sharan Gupt.

दोनों ओर प्रेम पलता है
सखी; पतंग भी जलता है;हाँ! दीपक भी जलता है!
सीस हिलाकर दीपक कहता-
बंधू वृथा ही तू क्यूँ देहता?
पर पतंग पड़ कर ही रहता!

कितनी विहवलता है!
दोनों और प्रेम पलता है!
बचकर हाय ! पतंग मरे क्या?
प्रणय छोड़कर प्राण धरे क्या?
जले नही तो मरा करे क्या?
क्या यहाँ असफलता है?
दोनों और प्रेम पलता है!

कहता है पतंग मनमारे -
तुम महान ; मैं लघु, पर प्यारे,
क्या न मरण भी हाथ हमारे?
शरण किसे चलता है?
दोनों और प्रेम पलता है!

दीपक के जलने में आली
फिर भी है जीवन की लाली
किंतु पतंग-भाग्य-लिपि कलि,
किसका वश चलता है?
दोनों और प्रेम पलता है।
