INTRO TO OUR NEW ROOMIE :P

This is about a "chap" we earlier knew
but has come to our flat as someone new.
Though on some occasions, we had our meet
he used to sit quiet and seldom used to greet.

One of our mutual friends,before he left,had this insistence
that we take care of him as it was of minimal maintenance
so that left us, the ever busy and the existing six
in a spot of bother as we knew we were in a fix.

We were told that would suffice for him a corner
and he would need little food, but lot of water.
Anyways we knew we had to be ready to part with our joy
so that could be, felt at home, this special "boy".

Well,its close to a day that we've had his presence
and he has kept quiet apart from some nuisance.
As i write this, yonder a 4 legged creature, i see
and thats our "roomie" who has been named BROWNIE!!.

One of the good things, is that he sleeps night and day
and ocassionally comes in between each other's way.
Well, the psyche of a dog, none knew before hand
and i guess a lot of time, we would take to understand!!

As to by myself, i sit and pen this write
it notice that it has gone out of sight.
So,its time for me to find where he is
so that later it doesnt spoil my bliss.

A WALK BACK HOME..

As on some work, i had been near Andheri station
and since it got over much before my anticipation
I had time to kill and hence back home, i thought i walk
all though i was alone and would have none to talk.






With a lot of effort i managed to get out of SV road
which during the peak hours, to get out off, is a load
as you will never know what way the vehicles would swerve
and all that one can do is not to get unnerve(d)

The summer had ensured that would blaze the sun
which didnt bother me as i was out to share of fun.
But i thought that i must not push myself by being insane
and hence, to retain my glucose balance,have a glass of sugarcane.

Slowly and steadily, i passed by a theatre called NAVRANG
that especially for Bhojpuri flicks,its known by old and young.
Some people were out to have a glass of chaas
which was not for me at all khas.

Slightly ahead, the intersetion, to me showed
an option i could take to reach the crossroad.
But before itself a shortcut i was to know
that would quickly take me to 4 bungalow(s).

Also i knew that i would come across the college BHAVAN(S)
as diffrent types of students flock there as its a haven.
Well, i knew for sure,that i could get to see
just not people, but many an intresting PYT.

Well, to my ongoing jaunyt, i thought that i add some spice
and by staring at a few, i indulged in a little bit of vice.
Wonder what those gals who buried their head in their parasol
must have thought of me a loafer or an a*****e!!

Soon i was approaching the supermarket APNA BAZZAR
wherein you get "maal" of varied kinds, by the hazzar.
Well, i knew already that the junction ahead
to the road of 4 & 7 bungalows, it led.

The construction of the metro, from there, one saw
one wonder what they had in mind for the gurudwara.
Looked like about their work, were boasting the foremen
as they were doing a service that was really yeoman.

Gently came by and ruffled my hair
all of a sudden, some pleasant air.
By then i had reached the shop BON BON
and i paused a while before i could move on.

As expected, my call, my friend didnt pick
which made me feel really awkard and sick.
Since from a long time, my stomach had lack (ed)
i thought something i pick up as a snack.

As i went around, if 7 bungalows garden, one saw
it looked like a spot where people had come for siesta.
Though i thought i spend a while at VERSOVA beach
something told me that, my place, i first reach.

As i walked towards the road on VERSOVA KOLIWADA
it reminded of fish being deep fried with rawa.
I just wished that it would be some sort of a treat
if somebody appeared and that to me gave to eat!!

Slowly i was starting to feel weary
and somehow i thought, myself, i must carry.
Quickly i decided without of an ado
towards YARI ROAD, i must go.

Back home,as i had a shower
i recollected what all i had garner(ed)
which made me think about what all to write
and what all happened, in my own way,shed light!!

POETIC TESTIMONIALS

Some testimonials on ORKUT i wrote for few people rather poetically ;)

Chandana:

We may not know who we are
as places from each other, we are far.
Though I know that you are not in sight
a small verse, about you, thought, I, must write.

You are someone whom I’ve known new
and not someone whom for long knew.
Yet, It has been really some sort of glee
whenever your poems and views, I see.

It’s a wonder how time, to write, you after being with your patients
which shows that you are someone creative and with a lot of patience.
Just one, if I can ask, of you as a simple deed
Its just that, whenever, you write, I get to read!!

As a follower of your poems, all that I can say to you, my dear poetess
is that many people you have managed to reach and impress.
All that is to wish you, for everything, the very best
and may you be outstanding than all the rest.

Akshata:

Since in a testimonial, there’s nothing wrong or right
thought I ,an unique way, for a special friend, I write.
Hence, about Akshata, this is what I’ve got to say
ever since I’ve known her from my IIPM day (s).

If there is one thing that I remember from my mind’s treasury
is that a classmate of mine used to call her Miss Banshankari
She takes things so cheerfully with a smile
and never, ever , looses her cool for even a while.

She was someone, in class, who used to remain very quiet
that we would never know whether she was really in sight
Yet, off late our friendship, over time, has really grown
as to many others, my talent of writing poems, she has shown.

May good luck and success in everything always follow you
and innocence, be there with you, as its there in very few.
In life, for you, I pray that there is always a bright rainbow
as luck and fortune, it is always there just for you to show!!

Reshma:

This is about an amazing gal i have known
as through scraps,my friendship has grown.
Pleasure has been mine that i have found her
as in diffrent ways,she has made me happier.!

RESHMA is known to make many a friend
especially through the scraps they send.
Coz she is someone smart and pretty
as well as who can be cool and witty..

Though hi,hello always,to each other say,
strange part is that we havent met till day!!
Though we may stay and work in diffrent city
being a Mangy,between us,the similarity!!

My love for MLR may irritate her to the core
and talking about it may make her feel bore.
Yet,this is what gives me a lot of glee
though i know that one day,she'll kill me!!

In future,each other get to meet
its going to be much more than a treat.
Fireworks are bound to be in the air
& may make people think we dont care.

Though we've diffrences that are trivial
for me,you are someone who will be specical.
Thats why,towards the end,this what i say
that happiness be there,night & day

George:

Though,each other,regularly,we may not see
yet it gives me a lot of joy and glee
about you,in an unique way,a testimonial, i write
as i see you are out to make your future bright.

Georgee is a guy who i've admired for his humility
which,in people today,is really a rarity
so,it has been,for me, a kind of a treat
to come across someone who is someone sweet.

We've known each other from days in Mangalore
where we enjoyed,in diffrent ways,to the core
so time has come to express,to him,my gratification
as he was also,to my poetry wrting,an inspiration.

He is among the fortunate and lucky few
to've got an understanding gal like Meenu
by being in each other's lives together
let god,his blessings to them,always offer.

The memories i had with you are among the best
and may not match what i had with the rest
as i end,about you, this small rhyme
hope you will be in touch,with me, for a long time.

Prats:

For a poet,feedback for their works, is what they need
and tough it is to find such people who are willing to read.
But like PRATS, iam lucky to have, on ORKUT. come across
who, my works, regularly reads without feeling cross.


Though we are at places, from each other, far away
daily through scraps and reviews, we have our say.
Knowing you in so less time, for me, has been a pleasure
as it is something that i wont be able to measure.


All that i can, as always, is to express my thanks
for you to take trouble and give my works a glance.
May you be blessed with a quill that will always write
and be in touch with me,even if we arent in sight.


Nivedita:

Like your poems, you are someone so NATURAL
by making everything around you look so very trivial.

Blessed you are, with a lot of INTELLECT
that as an individual, it has made you perfect.

It is known for sure that you are really VIRTUOUS
and may you remain so, in life, by being sagacious.

Be always, like you already are, as an ERUDITE
so that your future will always be shining bright.

In many ways, you have proved to be DIFFERENT
by some of the issues you raise by being vehement.

Remain always, like your poems, as someone INTERESTING
so that, one and all, eulogies they can continue to sing.

Make sure that what all you have, you harness as your TALENT
not just that is there in you, but also those that are latent.

Forever be the same Nivvuu who is AMIABLE
so that it makes others around really enviable!!

Raj aka BABY SAINT:

Someone,by virtue of his name, is a self proclaimed KING
as of now, on whom one can think, eulogies to sing.

Has in him, the innocence that one can see in a BABY
though as person, he is always someone so bubbly.

Dont know why he goes on around putting the garb of a SAINT
even though by his charisma, girls around just faint.

A human being, no doubt, a gem par excellence
blessed is AH POETRY with his esteemed presence.

Its been my pleasure, a poet like you, I have got to meet
and to read your works, i look forward as a treat.

IS IT GOOD TO WEAR ONE'S HEART ON ONE'S SLEEVE??

There are people who are governed by their emotion
that whats their mind can be seen though their expression.
While that, on the faces, in their own way,they tend to leave
one wonders if its good to wear the heart on one's sleeve.

Yet some of them turn to whom they are close
so that their joys and sorrows, they can disclose.
But if there is a breach, will they be able to forgive
i wonder for having decided to wear the heart on their sleeve.


Few may hardly take notice of things that come their way
but make sure that lesson from the experiences is out to stay.
They turn a deaf ear to what others, about them, are out to perceive
even though it may look that they wear the heart on their sleeve.

Going on to people who are deemed to be " cool"
who in reality, others around them, they may fool
as an opportunity, they themselves tend to give
though it may look that they wear the heart on their sleeve.


Well it is hoped that one is always consistent
and display behavior that is not too variant.
At the same time, never give an impression of being naive
even if it were to mean to wear their heart on their sleeve.

WE ALL MISS YOU...

We miss that loving and familiar face
that from our minds, we can never efface.

We miss that kid who used to play many a prank
and for all those memories,we've God to thank.


We miss that child who was such a nice sibling
that even now for that love, they have this yearning.



We miss someone who was such a nice friend
and to whom was assured friendship till the end.

We miss you, someone who was such a nice relative
that we know that their blessings out there you receive.

We miss that student who was a teacher's pet
and whose performances never made them to fret.

We miss you as its not been easy to forget
and without you in our lives,its difficult to accept.

MUSINGS OF AN IDLE MIND..

Iam not getting an idea on what to write
as looks like there is nothing am able to sight.
My mind is flushed out and seems like blank
as has gone away all that is their in the think tank.

Yonder could be heard something thats supposed to be music
but the same thing i like is making me jittery and feel sick.
It is hard to believe its something that i am unable to gel
as it is making me go through some sort of a hell.

Its been more than a day that i've though to have a morsel
as the current state is making me guility and feel terrible.
Rumbling sounds from my stomach i can hear as it, i rub
which in its gentle way reminding me ASAP to pick a grub.

From everyone, my mind wants me to stay aloof
and all day, all that i do is sit and stare at the roof.
Being by myself seems to give some unexpected satisfaction
instead of going over and striking with all, a conversation.

The day seems to go extraordinarily slow
and nothing new,it apparently is out to show.
Contemplating about the future, the heart is out to weep
and once i hit the sack, i know, i may've to count many a sheep.

Well, this was a thought that came though bizarre
and i just wondered how i could fight this civil war.
Hope i will not have to cross many a hurdle
and never ever sit keeping my mind idle.

BROKEN DREAMS-YET SOMETHING TO LEAVE FOR...

As a child, one would have surely looked up to the sky
and would've come a thought to soar really very high.
But when would've heralded youth, one might've got to learn
that life, in its own way, would've its high and lows to take an u-turn.

Would've looked impossible to reach to the horizon
and mistakes would've seldom thought one a lesson.
People around would've only this nasty habit to preach
especially when the attempts were futile and out of reach.

There might not be a suitable medium to express
and hence ambitions one might've had to supress.
It would've been like vying for a forbidden fruit
that something all around may not, for them, suit.



But one might've, day in and day out, seen this as a dream
and over time and years, turned into many a million ream.
One would've keept the mind sane without seeing to frustration
with the hope that one day, one would get the right direction.

All those desires and wishes, one might not've to satiate
or those, like water, in the air, might've got evaporate
might've made one think that one is doomed to be a looser
and life has nothing except setbacks, to all, to offer.

Yet the rainbow called HOPE would offer something to learn
that if somethings were to happen, it was only out of concern.
All that once could do is to oneself and all to console
and emerge oneself stronger to don a new role.

Looking back one has to feel that one didn't have to fall
after reaching a stature that appeared to be real tall
as whenever something life was out to invariably bring
it would've always given a rope to quickly cling!!

........EVER SINCE I GOT TO KNOW YOU

I just dont have an idea or word to say
of how i came across you, one day.
It looks like,you, for a long time i knew
as comfort was there ever since i got to know you.

From quite a long time and not so many years ago
different people, providence, to me, was out to show.
But a sweet person, like you, was to me, something new
and hence i felt good ever since i got to know you.

To each other, it happened, we got ourselves attach (ed)
and maybe thought, we might never ever get detach (ed).
Some sort of, i reckon, you fostered an invincible glue
you were an addiction of sorts ever since i got to know you.

But like always, that inevitable day, i used to dread
when from each other's lives, we had to move ahead.
It was hard for me to accept anyone else in leu
as i remembered the day ever since i got to know you.

ODE TO GOD..

Is it true that there is someone above
who,whatever we maybe, showers his love?
and that he has with him, some sort of a magical wand
that he can turn so that it happens as decided before hand?

He is supposed to be everyone's guardian
who is supposed to help when its uncertain
especially by dispelling what all exists as bad
and wiping our tear when we are feeling low and sad.

But, at times, when one has such a fall
that too from a level that looked so tall
one begins to wonder whether he is in existence
and whether he cannot see what is the turbulence.

That moment may be long-lasting or brief
but may shake what one has their belief
that may make one not to care for another or a beast
and instead may think to turn into an atheist.

Few may still resort to a prayer
and look heavenwards for an answer
as at times, mind ceases to remain in one place
and how to endure, one is unsure, this phase.

Oh God, if you are truly a guardian out there in heaven
then why is that you delay, our lives to enliven?
Though in our hearts, you'll always reside
why is that, we feel, that you've left our side?

Well now, that life is like that off a blind
yet your name would be kept in the mind
and all i hope is that will be there some satisfaction
if i can pass through this uncertain phase with your benediction.

LOVE V/S LUST-AN OPINION..

Earlier it was deemed as a gift from above
if one found in life,pure unconditional love.
Partners were expected in situations thick and thin
together as each other's heart, once they managed to win.

The amount of love, between each other, didnt have a size
and it meant that one had to be ready for any sacrifice.
This would make one get the feeling of being immortal
and the rest would look baseless and trivial.

But nowadays it makes people really wonder
whether maintaining this sanctity is a blunder
as to whether, forever love can one get to see
as well remain with each other as a guarantee.

A women who goes stray is called a w***e
and a man is mocked at that to the core
as what feelings what one has for each other
the aftermath could be concealed by peal of a wrapper.

In the garb of affection,one has to ",gifts" to shower
so that can be derived easily quite a lot of pleasure.
Just like how each other they might've thought to sleep
the guilt maybe there and some time may creep.

People indulge in lust as though there is no harm
and may come a day when it becomes a societal norm.
Now itself few things people arent able to keep intact
by turning a deaf ear to people what they are out to react.

Yet some of them are like the children of the soil
who, to people they love, they are eternally loyal.
Whatever may happen they would never loose trust
and wouldnt succumb at all way, in any way, to lust.

Anyways, this want written, to raise a dispute
as to all, to discuss on this topic, may not suit.
But as long as, like faces of the same coin, they stay
the topic will remain, for long, night and day.
