Ink Blot

(This is a page from my diary... 17 May,2011,Time:3:30)

Insomnia is something, a sleepless night is another. And giving up your sleep for a night, or occasionally is…. Well… just another thing too!

The magnificence of a “quiet” night keeps you awake, pondering over its mysteries. However, a “not so quiet night” presents before your weary, dream-worn eyes a slideshow of illusions. Envy takes over the feeling of awe for those who are responsible for the loss of the usual composure of the night. The magnanimity of their noisy sleep compels you to first watch out for an extra pillow to shield your ears against the noise. If you fail to find one, the search for a more peaceful place is initiated. If there are ‘no results found’ yet again, you go to a neglected corner of your house, switch on a table lamp, and take up a pen and paper. and do what I’m doing now.

And soon you find yourself staring at the window, clueless about how to proceed with your work. You watch the night dawn into a beautiful morning. The noise slowly fades away.

A couple of hours, and you are woken up at that same corner …….. a few words on one half the other…………….. and an ink blot on the other!

A Midsummer Night's Dream

This solemn summer night

Vows to the distant sight

Of dusky hopes, a drowsy delight,

Of starry dreams, a maverick moonlight;

Of breezy thoughts, some shadowed fright,

Of the sleeping stillness, a restless plight..

Of the heated path, the steaming air,

Of blistered feet, the soothing solitaire;

Of sweating eyes and the tanned fair,

Of dripping lips, the dark’s glare;

Of the slumbered lamppost, of nervy nightnares……

To the ageing novice, the waking dawn’s dare!!!

Power Cut...

Let's come to the point,the person mentioned in the post, "Empowering Priorities" is no more. Well... yea, it was an accident. And it was sudden. And unexpected too! But most importantly it was destiny..the Almighty's way of making us feel the presence of the Superpowers; His way of proving the existence of powers more powerful than us. And a successful attempt of the Supremes to make us surrender.

Dad, You've been,and will always be the most Powerful man I know. May you Rest in Peace.

Love you dad.!

Dew Drop

A drop of dew slithering down,

Past the leaf veins.....all alone;

Tracing its way to the edge..

Wating to drop down to the wretch!!

Be the droplet a nascent rainlet?

Or the crown of the heir leaflet?

Ot the flowing tear of a broken fate?

Or just the traveller's charm bait?

Mysteries endless.....

Seekers clueless......

A dew drop helpless.....

Ah.. There it is-----Beauty Flawless!

Emptiness

A dreamy day,
A waning way,
A nasty night,
A sober sight...
A gleeful glare,
A fathom of fear..
Brewing blisters,
Yawning yesters,
Creamy colors,
Pleading pallor,
The misty marsh,
Hazy and harsh..
A lovely loner, with her lonely love!

Eat.Pray.Live.

Dear followers and readers...

Here I am, after having survived 2 long tragic days, breathing the air of the blogosphere.

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqinthenews/2011/usc0001xgp/#summary

My condolences to all the victims of the Japan calamity, and their families..

My condolences to my dearest friend, who lost his mother yesterday in an accident.. May the Almighty give them the strength to move on with these residents of heaven watching over them.

And may the departed souls rest in peace.

In the mean time, friends, give it a thought: Isn't the unpredictability of life brutal at times? Isn't the transience of our dearest possessions the reason for all our mental injuries? The answers being an unwanted "yes", its time we wake up from our ignorant slumbers. I'm aware, that in an attempt to free myself of the grief of the losses and the fear of the losses to come, I'm only reiterating the words of many other great people. But I'm sure expecting at least a few of you to start thinking in the way I'm doing now: I'm not referring to the grief, I'm talking about the endeavor to make the world a better place to live in.

The strategies&punchlines are all conventional...

*positive thinking

*life being short has little space for hatred or sorrow

*Self introspection

*think before you act....

*safety

..... and so on and so forth...

And I suppose every person is well aware of these little things........

The knowledge, however is not working anymore. It's time to act. That too, on an individual basis. Dear friends, let's do our bit, and make people do the same. Every little effort counts. We can't confront nature, but we can behave the way nature has made us. We keep forgetting that we are born as "human beings" and not "inhuman beings". Having done enough damage already, let's now behave like the goody goody kids... well.... that MIGHT soften Mother Nature.. you know!

This will definitely not assure you of a disaster-proof life, but it sure will dilute the severity of the disasters.

Let's be the solution, not the problem!

Say,Love!!

Peace, the piece of my heart..

Pleasure, in thy love’s art...

Path that knows no thwart,

Plight, in the distance apart,

Pure since the day it starts......

Ravenous is the lust

Racing past the dust..

Real and robust.

,Royal and just...

Reaching for the world so vast.....

Imagination...

Intense passion....

Impregnable ,

immesnsely unforgettable..

Yearning for the love..

Young and fresh-

Yelling to

Yesterday’s dream......

A new day,

Adoring you in a new way

Amid the golden rays...

Amorously today!

Nervous..

Nascent..

Naive...

Noble.

Kisses temptation,

Kindles the passion..

Kneeling nights amaze your ignited rare pleasure!
