The year hath dawned, The season of mirth set in And The lord hath come To see our lost goodwill. Lights ornamented, Gloomy streets lit up, The tree in bloom awaited by all Relinquishes baked and hats on heads We prepare for Christmas day To sing and laugh as we have forevermore done And makeContinue reading “A Christmas wish”

And The Mountains Echoed
Delved into one of the most beautiful books, And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hoessini yesterday night. I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the book although some parts of it seemed missing. It was as if there lacked an emotional connect , the one you usually get in classics and the later. The novelContinue reading “And The Mountains Echoed”
The lost abode
You spoil me ! Shatter my soul ,Stifle and stab me to death …. My foliage was once a velvety green , The cockatoos sung tunes of rejoice The men danced and loitered about And many a new born cried . The glistening dewdrops then fell from the treesAnd fruits held a tender shine ButContinue reading “The lost abode”

When shall we overcome?” Is the question nowOur faiths in aContinue reading “Hope”

An act of Bravery- The Kargil Girl
1974, Guwahati. The maze of serpented roads led to small village wherein was born a girl, destined to achieve something prodigious one day.

Bygone Days…
Oh why need the days be so long,So tiresomeSo wearisome,A burden on ever so poor souls-Not a joy to behold,Not a way to smile,Not a way to console,Those days where did they go?Weren’t they here just a second ago!!When work was unknown;When we could sail on distant shores,And daydream the day throughout—Listen but little ofContinue reading “Bygone Days…”
