The daily "little things"…

Sometimes a little smile, a little friendly “HEY”,

With a snap, just like that it makes my entire day.

Other times a lot of happiness, seems totally worthless

As something is missing, a bit that’s the least of even the less

Just a patch of grey cloud in the mid summer season

Makes me bloom into joy without any logic or reason

But a lot of cloud with thunder & rain during monsoon

& I wait for a  yellow ray that might come out in the afternoon

Looking at the flower shop on my daily way

Through my limbs a new freshness has just started to play
 Costly bouquet in  plastic vase, with organised flowers with careful touch...

Honestly speaking, but sometimes it really seems like a bit "too much"

The evening citylights & sparkling shops on my way back home

 Inspires me with its brightness & my mind starts to roam

Can’t see the starlight, as they are so far far away…

just got merged with the bright city, in an inevitable way.

Slowly night drops in, spreading a nice tiredness through my veins

White moon, lights up the dark, shining in the starlit heaven.

Retired to bed, simply thinking a bit of this & bit of that

Thinking about a perfect day that I think I might just had

But the day was just regular, just like another ordinary day,

Oh sure it was ordinary,but in a nice & extraordinary way!!!

So unlike her...

Fair as moonlight, bright as a star,

                patient like a tree & calm as mother earth.

She is caring , yet she is very solemn...

               She's an angel, just dropped down from heaven.

Whenever I stand with her & there is none other   

                   people keep saying "oh !you are so unlike her..."

                    

She makes you feel like soothing morning breeze

                       in a burning summer day...

She brings the soft warmth to world

                       in a chilly, freezing &  frosty white day

Everytime people see me, they say in dismay...

    "Oh! you are so unlike her...

               so 'NOT HER' in any way."

She's the freshness, just after the rain

          silently she listens to all of your complains...

she does things, always in a clean & right way,

          even if you are wrong, for you she always does pray.

It's the chant, always reverberating in nights , days & eve s,

     "How can you be so unlike her...

                   It's really hard to believe."

You may not find her "mirror image"

        when you look at me

you may not see her beauty & grace...

        you may not, if you just "see"

She resides in me in a special yet delicate way...

      As I'm her daughter & you can't take "THAT" away!!!

You need a pure soul & a clean sight to find a true way...

      to see that I resemblance her in each & every way!!!

Still Reverberating...

A little hill, a little green,

                 a little shine with a little scene...

in my mind up she came...

               with a sweet name & a very little fame!!!

Standing in front of her, in bright sunlight,

I feel her love in every sound & sight!!!

With a lot of green, with a slight golden tint,

          with a lot of warmth,

                                     it offers a peaceful inn!!!

Slowly, the golden turns into a solemn grey...

thundercloud appears boldly,

                                          covering the golden sunray!!!

The chill spreads slowly,

                               as it starts to rain...

bringing another beauty on earth...

                                 drawing a greyish silvery curtain!!!

A little rain, a little sun,

                   with a little chill & a little warmth

                           continues all day...

I feel blessed seeing the "moodswing" of nature,

                            along with the little hill...

                                    in its very own magical way!!!

Is it after long time, or not so long at all...

                  my regular life is giving me the call...

I'm on my way now, with a silence, so ringing...

                 Only a soft tune of memory is still reverberating!!!

Crossing the memory Lane...

 

Well. right now I am feeling a bit nostalgic & so decided to take a tour through my memory lane...

Some of the images may be a little hazy or blurred ...

but still it continues to exist in a very special way

                                                        deep down my heart!!!

*Twilight*

I love the rain without dripping,
       I love the sun when it's not too hot...
I love random thoughts without thinking,
      I love the winter as it's not a lot!!!


I like to work without getting stressed,
     I love the "LOVE" when it is soft,
I love the tunes when not too loud...
     I love doing mischieves without being caught!!!


I want a bit of everything,
      but trust me as it's not too much...
It can be spread as magic sprinkling,
     with a soft, delicate yet elegant touch!!!

These're the things I need, to paint the nature,
      which is not too fade & not too bright...
with the green leaves under the cloudy sky,
      giving rise to a golden twilight.
