Lopsided not

 When grief takes over

When life is a burden too heavy to carry

Then it comes naturally to take a pause….

Stand still,

Taking load off head and heart

And staring back straight in the eyes of the life

Saying

“I am game

Let’s play it again

I am ready

I am ready to love you again”

Grief drains you so does it empowers

Nokia Apptasting

 Fun filled evening ‘Nokia Apptasting’on 19^th August presented by Nokia and IndiBlogger

An evening

When I made not just new friends

Over drinks and dinner,

It filled me with

Fun

Laughter

Enthusiasm

Knowledge &

Wisdom

And that game about onion cutting-

What a way to say

‘One needs to try new ways with open mind!’

Looking forward to new apps from Nokia

And many such evenings from IndiBlogger  

As my grandson will put it, 'I am loving it!'

Thank you Nokia

Thank you IndiBlogger

Bathing

Bathing

Lies, made up stories, bullying....

Attitude so disgusting,

I exited, deciding not to counter

Leaving room for better sense to prevail.

Feeling dirty within

I felt like taking a dip in the holy Ganges

Just then it rained

I looked up, smile passing my face.

HE has ways to take care!

Ways of Heart

Mind gives many reasons

And will find many more

For me to stay away from you

But

Heart has only one,

More powerful

Compelling and true;

A place in my heart belongs to you

I care for you

I am coming.

Friends

Friends

Two kids

Looking at a balloon in sky, 

Feelings in their heart

Make them laugh.

Friends they are

Moment brings them closer

Friendship felt.

Two adults

Logic runs high

They see balloon in sky,

Balloons have different meaning for each

Different feelings in each

Yet it brings them closer

For they care for each other’s feelings

Hearts of two friends are connected

Like hearts of two kids,

Logic in its place

Dare not come in the way.

OSI Prompt : Friend

Call of a Balloon

Light and colorful

 Going higher and higher

As high as I can

And still further….

Nothing holds me

In my single minded pursuit

…. to reach my highest

No looking back

No holding back

No intentions to return

My let go is complete

Reaching higher

I will disappear,

Clinging not

Hearts looking at me from the ground

Connect with me

Some smile, some sigh!

OSI Prompt : Balloon

Truth

Unending layers of untruth

Yet not reached

What may be True

Is what I call untruth

Just a part of larger Truth

I am unable to see?
