Come smile with me 4.4.16

beauty and elegance

has nothing to do with price

only in human world they come

with a price tag,

look around you and gather the gems

that are scattered everywhere

and cost not a dime!

Have a lovely day!

love.

Thursday Bouquet 31.3.16

they sparkle in early dawn

still being kissed by mist,

that is not ready to go

just like them.

Sweet dewdrops wait with mist

for sun to grace the sky.

Have a great day!

love.

Thursday Rhymes 31.3.16

dry leaves scattered on ground

like a yellow carpet

seven sisters busy

looking for worms,

their loud chirping

fills up the lazy afternoon.

They have so much to talk!

Silently a pair of doves

search for suitable twigs,

their little nest is on its way,

softly they coo!

A young koyel nervously calls out,

his mouth is still red

announcing his recent birth,

alone in world he struggles every day!

Have a lovely day!

love.

Come smile with me 28.3.16

Hidden behind the canopy of leaves

he looks down at earth

mellowed by their veil

his time is yet to come!

The birds sing his glory,

sail to kiss his rays,

another morning has dawned!

Have a lovely day!

Love.

Happy Holi 2016 (23rd and 24th March)

Happy Holi kiddos! Sorry it is three days late, but I wanted to share some pix, so I waited all day on 23rd before realizing that people here don’t play holi like people should, I had a faint hope maybe! they will play on 24th, but no they did not.

Now, I was one lucky woman that I braved the furious rays of sun and sneaked up to the roof to test my luck, and was rewarded fairly, got some cool pix of neighbourhood kids going home for bath, sorry could not get a single picture of playing holi.

No wonder I never loved Kolkata or its people much! Now, after seeing Hyderabad and its people even the liking has gone!

any way Wish you all colours and joys of life!

She hates paparazzi

or shutterbugs,

just one hunch

that the lens is staring

she is gone!

How can she be so cruel?

Have a lovely day!

love.

Thursday Rhymes 24.3.16

The moon smiles from sky,

on the neon-lit city streets,

spreading his magical light,

filling up the soul

with a peace that neon lights

no matter how beautiful they are

cant give!

The magic that moon weaves

is his, only his, no one else can

replicate that magic of his.

Have a lovely day!

love.

Come smile with me 21.3.16

sing a sweet song for me

fill up the grove

with your melody sweet,

ah! that is not required actually,

your sheer presence is a joy!

Have a wonderful day!

love.

Thursday Bouquet 17.3.16

spring is the season of two

everyone is best in mood,

there is a singer in every breast

and a make-up artist in every skin,

they dance and they sing and they chase,

not always for love though!

Have a great day!

love.

Thursday Rhymes 17.3.16

summer is making its presence felt

on February end,

one wonders what is waiting

what is cooking in the brain

of Sun God smiling up above

the concrete jungle.

The trees have shed their last leaves,

waiting for spring to cover them up,

will they fill up our little cubicles

with a little cool, shade from sun?

Let’s wait and see,

what nature will give!

Have a great day!

Love.
