BDay wishes for a friend,
A person great in thoughts and quick in mind,
Ready to help and easy to approach,
A google lover and adobe AIR champ,
I wish the year ahead give you heights,
Brings you near to your goals and spreads joy,
For Sandy is a great human being can be claimed true many times!
Every human being likes him for being so honest and wise!
With these verses I send
thousand white roses hand plucked
to brighten up your day
wishing you immense luck
O beautiful, listen to my words
time has come to prove yourself up
for you to spread your magical shine
and win the world with your captivating smile
rediscover the parental genetic gift
laugh off your aches and silly ways
you have worked hard for it
and today is your special day
live your heart, speak your mind
hold your confidence right
and am sure, you will twinkle
brighter than the stars bright!
in this (professional) world where smartness is to adapt
to camaflouge; to adjust for personal gains, is considered apt
an un-innovative mind you are, I agree
for it's devoid of any art, craft or polity
in your kindness lies smartness, in deeds, brilliance
a blessed soul you are; gentle, loving and intelligent
believe not your manager, believe not your peers
for what they say is to get loads of work cleared
remember friends, steal some personal moments
in the never ending chase; spread the flagrance
believe in your friends, right is their reason
listen to their thoughts, value their opinion
your mind harnesses thoughts with such magic
term it un-innovative is nothing but comic
and even if I am wrong, and they are true
I am glad to have an un-innovative friend like you!
- for an un-innovative mind.
colorful candles on the cake,
a mild blow is what it would take,
waiting for long, family and friends,
singing the universal celebration song.
feel the chill, embrace the weather,
hold your drink, loud say cheers,
to the music in the air, lend an ear,
in your very own day of the year.
remember the beautiful memories,
passing years can never mar,
rejoice the experiences big or small,
that have made you what you are.
time to weave new dreams,
of trekking in white mountains,
of walking in the dark lands,
of rowing the blue stream.
may the morning sun's rays,
bring every happiness your way,
with each passing moment, I pray,
fragrance of winter's makes you sway,
wishing you a very happy birthday!!!
Apologies to a friend
whom I have offended
but believe me bud
it was never my intent
its not your hard work
that I try to question
not the way you live
that I try to reason
I didn't mean to be
unkind or rude
it was only an attempt
to create a prelude
a failed attempt to hide
the feelings deep inside
of what can't be described
in words, but only by eyes
Give me one more chance
and never will I say again
words that may annoy
or have shades of nuance
Today I make a promise
A promise I promise
not to break, not to
repeat the same mistake again!
my fall will be for you,
to hold you in the wild.
my rise will be of you,
when your heart smiles.
in every breath I live,
my love will be in you.
every day, every way,
my heart beats for you.
I lay my life and all faith
in your hands, my dear
if you be the one to cut me,
something will die, I fear.
hold me, love me,
change my stars,
heal my scars, or,
I will bleed forever.
my fall will be for you,
my love will be in you,
if you be the one to cut me,
I will bleed forever!
Weeks have passed, since I halted in my run.
To lie down and think, away from the burning sun.
All my varied thoughts, why are all the same?
They start and end, revolving at the only name.
The darkness has fallen, storm plays the melody.
The silence that has spread, cannot be broken.
I fight the dark shadows, in search of light.
Awaiting the dawn, in this dark night.
For sometimes, silence, leads to deafness;
Sometimes, even darkness, to blindness.
All my hopes and dreams, now rest in you.
I want to get closer, drifting away, seem to be you.
I pray with prayers, that may melt the heart,
the power and will, of whom, can bridge our part.
Tonight any dream will do, as long as, your fragrance,
keeps the flame burning, of hope, of love of you!
The land and air all around us,
devoid of moist, cracked and dry.
Waiting for the rains to come,
to bid the summer good bye.
Staring for countless hours
at the clear skies, every day.
In the hunt for any allusion,
since I walked the demolt way.
Words were conveyed,
but was the feeling?
It makes me feel fret,
about, what's your thinking?
What holds you to reply,
is something I can't decipher.
Do I not hold good on your assay,
or still, am I a stranger?
In words what I could weave,
was only the mark of an etch.
One more chance is what I seek,
to open my heart's sketch.
I am curious to know, if you,
feel the magic as I do.
Knowing what makes you tickle,
will help me the way I woo.
I long for a response,
burning in great ardor.
As all wait for the fragrance,
of earth, soaked in vapour.
To quench the thirst of many,
when will the dark clouds arrive?
The ears are eager for the thunder,
for, we all need a reason to survive!
For the past decade, playing hide and seek,
is a wish, a dream, that had gone meek.
Since that day of vivid college images,
to this day of lonely voyages.
You changed my world with a blink of an eye,
that's something I cannot deny.
You put my soul from worst to best,
that is why I treasure you my dearest.
Your flawless beauty, your baby charm,
elegance, innocence, and the lively warmth.
The oasis you are, bringing in relief,
still ailing and lost in this beautiful belief.
Belief that waits in this world of ours,
for one lone soul another lonely soul.
Each choosing each through all the weary hours,
and meeting strangely at one sudden goal.
Brought chocolates, when should have flowers,
making my first mistake, in that evening hour.
Neither can I blame the ambience, nor the time,
responsibility of spoiling it, was only mine.
Had been waiting for you to ask,
so sudden, the question that came.
Unprepared, I created a mess,
when all I wanted was YOU, to say a YES!
To reveal so, my heart,
I know is not the right way to start.
Couldn't think of a better way,
for you are so very far away.
Celebrating friendship on this day,
I steal this golden opportunity.
Of requesting to find time, if you may,
and heed to my long concealed plea.
My heart left its dwelling place,
and can return no more.
Like a fragrance, fill my inner voids,
help me make our own lore.
Years will pass, decades too,
I want to spend my whole life through.
With you beside me, till old we grew,
I wanna know, if you would want too?
I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,or fears.
But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers.
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.
I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.
I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,
room to be yourself.
I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.
I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.
The pain..though gone...
My heart still yearns
for the one who hurt me so.
Seems a lifetime away
since we said our goodbyes
Should have known better?
Yes... I know....
But love falls upon those
unexpectant...
No warning is given perchance
creeping up like a thief in
the still of the night
breaking into our hearts
in an instance...
Without any insight
you've stolen my heart..
and now I have nothing to give.
emptiness remains
a great big black hole
yet I still have a life to live.
emptiness re fills with time
and distance...
the hole mends a little each day
but my heart still yearns
for the one who took it
so cruelly that day....
I wake up from a dream yet again,
Of a future filled with drear.
A continuing of existence,
Lack-luster and without cheer.
It pains me to see fate without chance,
With nothing I can do,
So I blindly take another step,
Into a future filled with nothing new.
What can I even attempt to do,
But hope all my dreams are wrong?
Just thinking I could fall,
And with one step end Fate’s sharp prong.
It pokes and prods and mocks at me,
Showing me the future same,
And that my bored-ness with life
Is caused from having a life without aim.
With a hope in the heart
of working with you all again
have loads of food by the cart
and coffee-sips in the rain.
I now choose to meander
with all your wishes to tread
to make new friends while I wander
on the long road ahead !!!

Partly reveals my state of mind... ;)
The name is good, the brand is big
But the work I do is that of a pig
The work or the brand; what is my way?
I don't know if I should stay.
To work, they have set their own way
Nobody will care to hear what I say
My will be NULL, they wont change their way
I don't know if I should stay.
The project is in a critical stage
But to do good work, this is the age
This dilemma is killing me day by day
I don't know if I should stay.
The money is not good, the place is great
But the development is at a very small rate
Should I go for the work, or wait for pay
I don't know if I should stay!
The managers don't know what they talk
The team doesn't know where they walk
That's a bad situation, what say?
I don't know if I should stay.
I can go to any other place
But what if I get the same disgrace
I can't keep switching day by day
I don't know if I should stay.
The -ves are more, the +ves are less
Then why have this unnecessary mess
No more will I walk their way,
It's all done, I won't stay.
You said you loved me,
But you were going to break my heart,
You said you would love me forever,
So why are we apart?
If you really ment forever,
Than say you will try,
Cause you once said forever,
And that made me cry...
Hark, hark to His Flute of delight!
On the bank of Life’s lone shadowy river
He plays to quell our Night!
Wreathed in sweet smiles, a vision of Gleam,
He is crowned with His aerial Love!
He dances, a beacon to derelict souls,
On earth star’s kinship to prove!
At last I find a meaning of soul's birth
Into this universe terrible and sweet,
I who have felt the hungry heart of earth
Aspiring beyond heaven to Krishna's feet.
I have seen the beauty of immortal eyes,
And heard the passion of the Lover's flute,
And known a deathless ecstasy's surprise
And sorrow in my heart for ever mute.
Nearer and nearer now the music draws,
Life shudders with a strange felicity;
All Nature is a wide enamoured pause
Hoping her lord to touch, to clasp, to be.
For this one moment lived the ages past;
The world now throbs fulfilled in me at last.
