"Most beautiful"

Starry sky of the full moon’s night,
"Ah! What a beautiful sight!"
Shimmering diamond and glitter gold.
"Most beautiful", I am told.
Twitter-chatter of the bird,
"Most beautiful", I have heard.
Glowing sun, flowing river serene,
‘Most beautiful’ to be seen?
Gentle flower with its morning’s dew,
Mother Nature with her hue.
Gushing waves of the open sea,
"Ah! Most beautiful to see!"
Upon me put, I’ll say something new,
The title, I’ll always give to you.

A Simple Story

Written waaaaay back in my 10th standard!! There is a story in itself behind this one! Maybe I'll tell it some other time.

Reading this tale might make you feel like you’re tailing the tail of a tailless animal or calling tails of a coin with no tails and might result in your patience tailing off while you tail this tail-full tale.

A person personally doubted his personality to suit his job. He was a keyboard player, who opened his music filled musical room with the same key played the same keys looking at the same key.

The doubt, he confided in his mother only to get the reply that she had the biggest doubt in the world the doubt being the doubt of what the definition of the word doubt is.

Next his wife, misery was her life, said that no mad man will call another mad man, mad, and all are mad in this mad world and there’s nothing wrong in being a nomad for a job. Thus he went, through a big vent, wearing a coat with a vent, his feelings trying to vent. His home far behind he left and found his left foot a foot from the footpath which was a foot from the foot of a tree, a foot taller than the tallest.

He marched on in the hot march making a mark on the sand and having nothing more than a mark in his hand. A long walk from there with long steps along steep stepped mountainous area with mountainous people doing mountainous jobs, he came across a not which said, "Note to be noted: We hereby want you to note that this note will help you to get notes and buy notes if you want to and is as simple as writing a small note but difficult enough to get you an angry note from the owner, who owns this piece of land from the piece of paper hie father left him, died in peace and not pieces, years ago of ear pain, which could have been plainly painless had he not thought he ought and sough the help of a pin, strong enough to pin a pin, pinned to a pinafore to pierce his ears to hear more of the ore he found here. Considering that the person was an able doctor, this might as well turn inta well shaped fable where the hero died like a sable with a cable. Contact the owner with tact and the fact of not calling the act criminal is truly criminal."

Taking the note, he took off to take the job which was a job of giving the taken money from the owner. Deceived by the deceiving amount of money, he tought of deceiving the owner, but he himself got again deceived.

The owner found out and wound him through courts of tennis to a just court. The mad Justice after hearing to a tailless tale gave a tail by stating that, "Just, in a just way can be just a word, just to say nothing else but just, only to be mistaken when meant the other just, a word just as common as the word just is, in this just court."

Moral: Disagreeing to agree will eventually result in you agreeing that you disagreed to agree at first but now agree that it is the time to agree your fault and agree it.

Love!

I am in drought,
You are my ever flowing stream.
Grief has me sought,
You are my cherished dream.


Deep water dire!
You keep me afloat.
I am in fire,
You are my saving moat.


I am deaf,
You are my song. Oh!
I am blind,
You are my rainbow.


I am in Love
I am in Love. Oh!
I am in Love….
I am in Love….]

Love!

Again written for someone very special.

Is it the glisten in your beautiful eyes
That makes my heart, with Love, rise?
Is it the charm in your hair
That makes me want to, forever, stare?
Or is it the gorgeous smile on your face
That makes my heart, race?
Is it the warmth of your voice
That forever gives me a feeling of rejoice?
Maybe it is your alluring grace
That makes me want to hold you in an embrace
And Love you for an eternity there
And drift away in the thin air
What is it? That makes me want to always say
I Love You, I Love You.

I Love You!


Written for a really really special person.

Where art thou?
Thou alone I shall truly love.


With thy allure ever so fair,
Doth one ever ever dare?
Say to thee love, "Nay"
Nay, ‘Nay’ doth nobody say.


Where art thou?
Where art thou?


Waiting for so long, I’m…
Shall do, if need be, till end of time.
T’is I true blest
If only thou….be in our geste.


Where art thou?
Where art thou?


Without thou, my love, I despair.
Without thou, life, I cannot bare.
Without thou, my love, nothing goes by…
Without thou, my love, ….I …die.


Where art thou?
Thou alone I shall ever ever truly love

The Painter

26th Nov 2004 is the date. There is also a small note in my book which says this poem was inpired by the movie 'kuch kuch hota hai'!

It was all at first , merry
What with red carpet and blue berry.
In his hand the 'To Paint' box shone,
And he thought of the red bow tie his son could own.
For it was the emperor who had asked him to make,
A potrait for his sake.

In a jiffy,brush and paint were out
Not distant was a cure for his gout.
The box he unsealed......
Oh!but to this he wouldn't yield.
Before him was the flag and the face,
The face which had deterred most of his race.

'Oh!My hand reaches not
But to the colours of what only my country's got'
The flag and the face, with tears, he flung
And to his leg something clung
A little hand that made him sigh
It was now stretched-'Papa,i know today you've got my bow tie'.


Night

It says 27th feb 2004 in my book. That's the date I wrote this poem.Atleast that is the day I made a fair copy of this poem.Well it was just there in my book and with no one to read it. So I thought why not post it here.

NIGHT

I see stars,
Through my window bars.
Glinting with them, the moon,
Hiding under the clouds and then appearing soon.
As if playing with a child,
The wind too with voice mild.
Sways in the dark night.
And there’s none else in sight.
It’s like a complete standstill.
Holiday even for the old mill.
I hark not a rattle,
And there isn’t a battle.
Ah! Such a delight,
Is this beautiful night.
