Welcome to a New World!!

Downtown was a coffee shop, Like always the evening was a flop, The lazy Joe was not ready to move out, But a strange voice from the heart changed his thought. For a change the wind had a different sound, And strangely the roads did not appear round, The sand had a different aroma, Mystified Joe reached the coffee shop with a dilemma. The coffee shop had a white glass, The view on the other end was quite a class, Infusing all the energy, Joe reached the counter, Never before did he have such a beautiful encounter. The next hour was unforgettable, And the rise in the heart beat was irreparable, Till that day nothing like this was imaginable, A new world was formed which was incredible. Now visits to the coffee shop is in lush, And the laziness is out in a flash, Love has been revisited in a splash, Life is beautiful keeping silly moments in the trash. . The day is never the same, And the nights has only one name, Thinking of the coffee shop again, Bring in old memories which will never ...

Sometimes I wonder if silence kills, Sometimes I ponder if it heals, Sometimes silence has a lot of tinge, But only sometimes it has a universal hinge. Some days are murky and some days are soaring, Some days you want to go out without crawling, Some days are rare with winds all flowing, Those are the days when silence keeps calling. Sometimes silence speaks a thousand words, If kept for the right moment it is like a universal sword, But for the time it is on the road, No one can think beyond nor can hoard. Many a times I have kept my words in my heart, Many a times I have tried to let it out, Many a times I have tried to get what I want, None of those times my silence helped me out. But the day will come when the chains will break, When the days won’t pass just for a heck, And the nights will be like a dream without old sake, Till that time let’s wait and hope that it will finally speak!

It was the sunny after noon of 16 th October’08 when the great man reached the inevitable. It was an emotional moment for our hero and it made us even more emotional. The peak of Mount Everest in terms of cricket has been redefined so many times by so many greats but this time it’s more so special because this time it’s my child hood hero who has engraved his name forever in the History Books for the most prestigious record in World Cricket. Sachin said that he had to throw a lot of stone to reach the milestone! What a quote from the great man who is not known for letting his emotion known in public. But, he had surely kept his one of the best quote for the right time. Inspiration and Respect are the things which comes automatically deep down from heart. I am sure everyone from our generation look out to sachin for the two. He inspires millions by his act both on and off the field. An eighteen year old kid touring his first Australian series and hitting a century on the convent...

Sat down by the river side, Happened to see the shadow saying lie The picture was hazy and the light was about to die Not ready to face the truth, I was shy. The day got over but I was hell bound, and the thought kept coming around. Could listen to my heart pounding with a peculiar sound, I was lost but did not want to be loud. The next day was cloudy and it was about to rain, Mustered my energy and went by the river side again, To look out for a new identity and to be sane, Unfortunately saw a lost soul about to be drained. The truth was bitter than what I had thought, But I knew I could fight the situation out, Wanted to forget the past and the callous ghost, Rediscovering the soul looked within the coast. Things were beautiful now and the picture was clear, The roads were wider and the ears could hear, All the eyes were open and there was no tinge of tear, Without a doubt, everyone looked dear. The light was brighter and the belly had a new fire, With an open vision, the destiny was...

Ohh it’s been two weeks now. But the memory of that improbable match is still fresh and alive in my mind and heart. I am sure it would remain forever. It was a true delight to watch the two geniuses at play matching stroke by stroke. What was delightful to see the way two handled themselves post match. One man was the reigning champion, the untouchable who has caught hold of the famous Wimbledon trophy for the last five years now. The other was the lion hearted genius, trying relentlessly to catch the same for the last three years. But there was no bad taste after the match and both of them complimented each other like true champions. They are true idols for everyone around. The match started with an early break in favour of Nadal, Though Federer had his chances in the first set, Nadal definitely was the better player in the first set. Second set was a bit dramatic and after the 4-1 lead for fed ex, no one would have imagined the eventual scoreline, 6-4, in favour of Nadal. I have hard...

How many times our adrenaline has rushed when we have watched a really close encounter between India and Pakistan in a cricket match? Pretty often I guess. That is the time when most of us really connect to our country. The proud feeling of being an Indian touches our hearts and gives us goose bumps. The emotion and the passion entrusted in the cricket match bring in togetherness and unity. Well that’s the beauty of being passionate about your country. It brings in positivity and happiness. Passion can be anything from riding a bike to writing. It can be as surreal as collecting coins. But, the important thing is to understand it and to live with it. The day a person loses out on it is the time when life becomes colourless and mundane. There are times when you feel down and don’t want to wake up again. Those are the times when one should invest his or her energy on what they really want or wanted to do in life. The satisfaction out of it gives a new zest. It gives the courage to look b...

Woke up in the morning for a new sunrise, Hoping it would bring some thing to smile. No was the answer from deep inside, When would I see a new sunrise? Lost in the mountains and the crowded lines, Can’t find it in the heavens and between the silver lines, Behind the ocean, in a deep blue sky Raised the sun with the same old sly! There was no cloud in the sky, I was happy and I wanted to fly. Before some one came and said good bye, I was left stranded to clear my eye. A new beginning was in my mind, Though my sight was at the hind. Was there any one to read between the lines? Not ready to give up, hope was my pride. The sun rose again with a different shine, Without being somber, it tasted like a wine, Came out with it a new lease of life, Oh my god I am on a high. The sun is now with a different light, So I’ll try my best to keep it alight, Would never give up and keep up the fight, Before it goes out of my sight!
