Miss you!

I feel like the Bedouins of yore
Exploring the hot sands of my heart
Hungry and tired
Looking for water to quench my eternal thirst

Then I see you from far far away
Like a beautiful rainbow on the colourful sky
And coming my way
Like a messiah, you fill me with so much joy it makes me cry

I feel my prayers are answered
You are all that I dreamed of and more
I run to you ignoring my fatigue and
The wounds of soul turned sore

But you turn away
Like a mirage playing tricks on my mind
The sun of loneliness scorches on...
Driving my eyes blind

I still look for you always
My long awaited soul mate
I have waited for many years
Fighting battles of fate

I look up to the sky from time to time
Waiting for a glimpse of you
The smile the eyes the innocence
Showering on me making my dreams come true

I miss your whispers in my ears
I miss the laughter in your eyes
You are a true gift from God
Sent straight from up in the skies

Come back and speak to me
Ease the rising pain in my breast
You complete my life with your touch
Come back my friend oh dearest

2020: adios amigo!

The year 2020 was cruel to most of us, but it taught us many positive lessons. It made us appreciate and be grateful for all that we have, and realise what we really need in life to be happy. It was a lesson needed for the world to reboot and rethink of its priorities. It reminded us that we have been making the mistake of using people and loving things when it needs to be the other way round. It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!

The mountain between us

The film mountain between us is a simple story. A storm, A mountain, two professionals, one recklessly sick pilot and a dog. Meagre ingredients for a movie. But the movie touches you deeply. Hits you hard like the sinking Titanic and it's soulful background track. The mountain in the movie is the metaphor we all have in our relationships. It's the mountain and the storm that brings people closer. The lonely souls wandering in the sea of souls, looking for something neither knows. It's so true in our modern lives. We are all living busy lives, chasing dreams. Then life takes over sometimes, creating situations and circumstances that gets us meet people whom we were otherwise never going to meet. Call it destiny or karma or whatever you choose. But these people, places and circumstances help us reach deep within ourselves and find us the anchors in the sea of life. Then life is never the same anymore...there is positive vibrations all around and we follow the vibrations to r...
