CHAPTER II

My bucket list - since last 27 years just sat idle- adding wishes
While I thought - all my wishes were abstractly absurd,
While I planned to just close the lid of it and start afresh.
The bucket tipped and tossed and hushhh all the wishes flew.
I was happy that- I didn't have to be guilty for not accepting them as mine.

Then a turn, as if I was walking towards myself in a dream
A dream so real, where life which looked like a fake story book now
A weird turn - a not calculated or thought I clinger around
All changed, as if it was that easy
Hard to believe cause Life never seemed so easy
Lucrative very it was - the more cautiously I set for it
The more beautiful and soothing this has been.

Not all was great or mind blowing
But indeed worth the entire beautiful journey I am set for
I am anxious to a point that i don't generally admit its nice
What if the feeling jinxes it
What if it turns into the worst nightmare ever
Being the positive clumsy soul I always was and is
I pat my heart an say trust the journey

The bucket just didn't tip and toss
It had it own purpose may be
It knew when and what and how
It feels like I see those wish chits transform into pretty colourful butterflies
Butterflies fluttering all around me
Making me feel its always the Spring
The Spring of love
The Spring of happiness
The Spring of colourfullness in my life
A few sat on me now and then, making me feel more the special
Though all are very special 
But they are yet to catch hold of me- the chaotic clumsy soul - me
I am running with time
May be for time indeed 
It feels good to see the butterflies follow me,
No matter how hard the wind blew
No matter how chilled or heated the roads might be
I just hope they will always follow me like they are following me
They boost me to run further to run stronger
They are my brain child my colourful brain waves
Lighting the world around- may be faintly ,but still they do
They make me proud- as I realize they were damn realistic
I would set them free from me one by one
I would see them fluttering with someone else then
And smile with sweet and sour nostalgia.

 Dream baby dream - all I must say
Make a wish - they might be vicious
But they are worth living even if it is for a day!

Chapter II - I call the phase
Better be good better be nice
Let the curtains up and the sweet and sour never ending drama begin!

O yes! Thanks! the bucket list fell and - You happened!

Love from Spring

The cold winter has just passed The drying leaves are flickering for the very last time The chilly winds reminds me of all my nightmares The chilled nights whisper to me the untold failures I still combat for While the fight of the cold days and chilly mornings are on The winds have done some wonders in between I didnt see them working that hard.. But the nature speaks for the wind I see colours popping I see the sky getting clear with those promising clouds The clouds sail like they were never ever been so happy before Have you seen the smile of clouds the sky wears That smile gives my chapped winter lips a little relief Did you see the mickey, the elephant, the what not imaginary in the clouds Oh it drives me crazy seeing how the sky has turned into a beautiful canvas of my imagination Just below the beautiful canvas is the colourful nature. Lustful green, flickering coloured leaves and bountiful flowers Dancing like the toddlers on winning over their first exper...

SMILE :)

Just like the moon-Yes like the moon You have traveled a lot of phases You have changed so many faces Traveled so long- that it has already been noon Before the darkness dawns in-lets sit a while- just a while! Lets take a stroll back those phases Does that hurt? In a minutes journey - you might be smiling too In a while your emotional fountain might just burst Hold on to it baby! Dont drop those precious pearls. Boring- aint it,it made you sad. You want to re-lieve few of those moments again You want to rectify all the mistakes u did Alas! all gone. You are the hero - You are the Villain Of your own knitted story. The story so far is well knit. However, it might not be that neat. The story at times is dark and not well lit. Life doesnt come with the delete button Doesnt give us the erase option. The masks we wore sometimes were so wrong The ideas we created and passed were so not true. Hold on to your emotional fountain baby! I know  - it lacks the pus...

Life - The game of Uncertainty

As a teenager in late 90’s- I was so confused about life. Every bad thing that happened to me then,  was taken to the court of God (my hypothetical Place of ultimate justice), where I cried and complained and wished why don’t you kill me. Now standing at the fag end of the year 2021 some odd 20 years later- I am praying and am gratified for each day that I survive. If someone happens to ask me what is the most precious thing that I have today – that would be MY GOD DAMN LIFE. So you must be wandering what made me a gratified one over the complaining one. The answer is – while fighting all the odd battles of life, is when I realized that- each battle I won or loss actually helped me to acquire the taste for life the taste for never giving up on life. I remember post my graduation and first break up- I thought my life was doomed and I had to carry the baggage of life throughout. That moment I met random people, heard their stories (a quality I think I am blessed with - people...
