Life...

Moved away, sans leaving a trace,

Moved away, leaving me alone to face!

Moved away, swift as melted water,

Moved away, when I was appalled at the disaster!!

In open space I rambled, cursing my fate,

In the gush of wind, found my soul mate!

With her I shared, many a secret and regret,

From her breeze and storm, gained lessons i'll never forget!!

From her energy, vigour and charisma, ideals I drew,

The confidence, the poise and the courage grew!

From her I learnt, the message for a life-span,

“The World is not a stage, all goes not by plan”!!

Dark Prince

The screens danced with grace,
The touch of air enriched my face!
Through the window pane I gazed,
Valiant and strong, his shadow swayed!!

Down my veins , I felt the shiver,
The urge, the passion to surrender!
The eyes- sharp and crystal clear,
A gateway to what lied under!!

A heart, soft , yet to be discovered,
A mind, sharpened , trained at Harvard!
Compassion intertwined with dedication,
Virtued coupled with trendy fashion!!

A sculpture i sat adoring,
Be it autumn , summer or spring!

I looked, shocked at the shadow moving,
Shattered , as another hand I saw it hoding!
Bid adieu, wished them to succeed,
As i lay , sorrow deeply buried!!

Want To Be A Millionaire....

Written originally somtime in december 2005...

Seven little numbers is all it would take,
What a difference the seven digits would make.
Fit to relinquish my job and live like a queen,
Shall visit the paradise that i've never seen!

Scaling the mountains enveloped with snow,
Skiing and rowing as the streams flow,
A palace with a garden i conspire to buy,
An air-plane i'll get and learn to fly!

Eyes will be blinded by the diamond ring shine,
What a lovely life !! Authority is mine!
But wait a minute!!

Places I'll travel, leaving friends at bay,
The portrait of life will be shaded gray,
So i've decided not to leave my job,
the bubbly life I relish with my mob!

Why am I planning for a party in the cold,
When ice and snow scare me as 'm old,
In a rich man's castle ,I'll be out of place,
A solitary girl needn't have that extra space!

"To zoom through the clouds with the plane's light"
Funny! acrophobia, I have a fear for height!

Deriving happiness out of a million is a million dollar question!
"rags to riches"-cindrella to princes is a part of fiction!!
Live every moment! Remember the tale of Midas, the king!
You'll be remembered not by the penny but by the joy you bring!!
