World thro' HER eyes



Almost a decade ago on a chill winter night
She came into my world with zest and might

I beckoned her and told
That she was my visa to the world

Be it about Franklin Roosevelt's fall
Or the rise of technology, she had it all

She made me travel around the world
Right from Gaza to the regions untold

And neither did she forget to impart
The impacts of global issues in my heart

For some she is just a gumming bit of paper
But for me she is a philosopher

I find it easy to see the world through her eyes
For its true that she has never told me lies!!!!!

Reasonless Seasons


Scorching heat of the sun

Paralyzing me like a stun gun

The very thought of a cool drink

Will vanish when I see her blink


And in the spring when I fight

With my brother for a kite

My heart will sink on seeing

Her longing to have a wing


A pink jerkin this season?

No, that had no reason

Since the biting winter chill in the morning

Told me she was even devoid of proper clothing


All that I could give her

Were a can of drink, a kite and a sweater

And when asked what the new year day meant to her

“A day with 3 meals” was her answer

Lions or jus lines?


The flag was flying high
Though no one to stop by

Neither did i miss the sides of the roads
Filled with banners of all modes

Workers roaring like lions
Were now settled in lines

I wondered where these people went
When called for a good event?

And all of a sudden everyone scattered
Even before their leader departed

I could not believe my eyes
But only then did i realize

That these were not the lions of the party
But were jus lines of poverty!

AMAZE ON !


We learnt from the epics
The essence of Friendship
The Mahabharata depicts
The strength of its grip!

But the days have gone
And the nation is torn!

Centuries before
The Egyptian pharaoh
We lived galore
At the Mohanjodaro

But now we are ruined
'Fashion' is the new term coined

World believes
Changes have degraded the amazon
But what this leaves
Is that we have a billion more to amaze on!!!!

MOTHER EARTH look at your so(i)n


Alone he stood

At the corner of the hall

Longing for a glimpse

Behind the wall

It was not the fault

Of this ten year old

Nor the lords

To whom he was sold

That now he z standing here

Bare foot, sans shirt to wear

Not enough if

Mahatma calls in HARIJAN

Its time mother for u to

Look after your son!


(Dedicated to all children who are away from their family coz of drought!)

R(EM)AINS !


This nite am standing alone,

That very thing haunting me

God its not gone

Please listen to my plea

I cant bare

The droplets washing my torso

Feeling the clouds stare

And as if bound by a lasso

But little did I know

That when the lightning glowed

All the sins in a row

Had begun to flow

Off my mind

Off my body

Away they flow

There goes even my ego!!
