Moon Song #5
Well, well, how are you, folks? It’s been a long time since my last post. I have been busy with work and other programs. And, I am all set to welcome my little one in July! 
So, I am spending much time in talking to it, playing music to it, interacting with it and feeling its fierce kicks and punches. And, yeah, I think my creative juices are flowing again. You can find my new poems and verses in YourQuote app.
So, here’s a new poem on moon.
Seizing the moon, I wrote poetry on it.
Line by line, with black ink and pure love.
But you never acknowledged my verses.
My love is still unrequited.
You see the scars on the moon?
They are not mere scars,
as philosophers claim.
They are not craters,
as scientists pontificate.
They are the testimony of my love.
They are my heartfelt verses,
disguised as scars and craters.

A Song Well Sung
Another awesome review of my short story ‘Somewhere In A Song’.
It is very rare that I’ve read a story at one go. My role as a mother hardly permits me the time or energy to read a story in one sitting. ‘Somewhere in a Song’ is an exception. I was compelled to read through the entire story almost without batting an eyelid. No, it isn’t a crime thriller, it is a thriller bordering the paranormal and yet you just cannot let it go. The premises of the story is simple – a young woman named Emma Justin gets drawn to a song -taking it to the level of an obsession. Is it just an obsession or is there anything else behind this strange behavior? Is she the singer of the song or not? The story itself is like the song – ‘There’s nothing left to do’ – first drawing you towards it and then make it a compulsion for you…

Moon Song #3
This poem was written as a part of the topic ‘Golden Pole on the Ice Field’ in a private group in Facebook. My love for moon resulted in this poem. Read on!
Scars of different shapes
adorn its pure body,
punctuate its resplendence.
But those scars, golden scars,
are exceptionally beautiful
on its ambrosial texture.
Black to the distant eye.
Golden to the people
who have walked on it.
The scars have a purpose.
The golden scars are that
which give a completion to it.
But the moon never laments.
It proudly flaunts the scars
to the entire world.
The golden, golden scars.

Thee Thee – A.R.Rahman Song Ft. Kavya Janani
I have never shared any of my singing videos in my blog. Many readers don’t even know that I can sing. I was trained in Carnatic music till the age of 15. And then I began performing in light music orchestras. I have also participated in some reality shows and other TV shows. I am now active in Smule, a karaoke-based recording app for singers. This song is a recent recording by me. I am not sharing the entire video due to copyright issues. I’ll share the YouTube link and Smule link for you to listen and enjoy.
I’d love some feedback from you, since this is my dream song. Kindly listen with earphones for better quality.
