The clouds in the sky, Dark and grey, Gather together, Heralding another rainy day. The trees once dry, Now all green, Begin to sway, Making it a pretty scene. I smell the petrichor, As the wind begins to blow. The troubles on my mind, I begin to let go! And pitter-patter, It begins to fall. First gently, And then it gives its all. I sit […]
Reading has been an integral part of my life. My day feels empty if I haven’t read at least a few pages. And as the years have gone by, my reading has evolved. Not just in the kinds of books I read, but also in the way I read. In the beginning it was only paperbacks, then read pdfs of classics that I would read […]
I have always been mesmerized by the change of seasons. The sunshine, the rain and almost non-existent winter in between. Each season brings with it its own memories. For me, summers brings about a sense of nostalgia like no other! The exams, the vacation, the mangoes, the games, the books, the rain – all of it brings about a yearning for that time that now […]
When days go by feeling all the same, With hope seeming ever so bleak, Take heart, my friend, don’t cry, Just look at the sunset sky! The day may be drawing to a close, Yet it goes away in all its grandeur. With hues of crimson and gold, Oh the stories the skies told! Like the ever changing sky, Life doesn’t always remain the same, […]
Memories come to my mind, Sometimes for a fleeting moment, But often they linger on, Especially the memories of you. For memories are all I have of you, And with time, they say they fade away too. But I’ll hold on, to every bit of them, Though I know they are so few. If only I could turn back time, To when you were still […]
Ever since I was a kid and I learned that there are different countries and different places on Earth, I wanted to visit them all. As a child, with no limits to my imagination, I would tell myself that someday I would see all of the world. As I grew up, I understood that reality was different. Trips to any place apart from the hometown […]
Things may not be all bright and shiny, but then it doesn’t hurt to look at the brighter side of life. The world today isn’t what it used to be a few weeks ago. A pall of gloom has descended and everything has gone haywire. All of this because of a single virus! Life isn’t what is used to be. Things we once considered normal […]
Things seem gloomy all around, I don’t know where we are heading. Hope was what kept us going, The hope for a better tomorrow. But now I wonder, If we will even see another day. Because all I see is humanity dying, With something new each day. I remember those days of old, When the lines on my hands, Told stories of what was in store, […]
We rush through life, Always having something to do, For we don’t have the time, To take things slow. We think about yesterdays, Worrying what tomorrow has in store. We wait forever for better days, Forgetting to live in the present. Our worries and troubles never cease, There is no time to be here and now. We fail to put our minds at ease, From […]
On a grumpy Monday morning, While I try to reach the terror called the office, I’m forced to take the road less taken without a warning. I keep worrying about the zillion things on my mind, Wondering where life is taking me, Because the time for myself, I cannot find. As I look out, I find the most beautiful smiles, On the faces of people, […]
