Bye !!

Bid adieu not
You and I are apart but
Eternally one

Yin Yan

 Alone one can

Never survive sans other

Our nature's balance

~#*#~

Serene Soul lies
where lotus blossom despite
the low or high tide

~#*#~

Balance lies where the
Pull and Push even out and
Sanity prevails

New Life 

Child born out of pain

 Pleasure seeing cherub face

Life is bittersweet

Time and Tide ....

Age

 Old! one would say

Time has that effect on us  

wear and tear alike

Support

Go without support

The travel time, feels endless

Don't we all need some?

 Wisdom

 Senile we all say

 Serene is all I see

 With age comes wisdom

Hope

Frail hands aplenty
Longing for angels to spare
So hope can survive

Hunger

Fight everyday
For meal that is scant for days
Oh God would thy spare?

Patience

Mother Earth

Quietly you bear

Our countless atrocities 

 Yet you nurture us

Sleepless

Awake like an owl

Staring right into the dark

Sweet sleep forgotten

Day 1 – February 1st – Theme: Freestyle

List less??

For a long time I have been telling (begging) myself to get into an active lifestyle. Why? Because I am bored of being bored. I have been wondering what to do and when to start .. Well, I enrolled myself into an unlimited yoga class here for the next 2 years. Yippe!! Way to go for committment and such.. But I enrolled, so I would make it a point to go. Since I did enroll, I have been waiting for an auspicious day to start (read :slacking!!) .  Also I wanted to see more routine in my lifestyle. I want to explore the Maami side of me, which seems to be waiting for me to embrace it.. So, I want to wake up early, Pray, make tea and breakfast for my dearest and work hard(??), cook for my dearest, write sri rama jayam, practise music, listen to my favourite musicians, work on my sketching skills and try to involve actively in volunteer work.

So my mother announced, day before yesterday to my despair that, yesterday was a good day to start anything... It is vijaya dhasami!!... So I woke up reasonbly early (for my standards), did my morning prayers, worked, cooked, did gardening, sketching, chanting, recycled the trash at home and tried to pick up less fight with my husband.
I could not get to Yoga... Sooo, I was feeling listless this morning thinking of how lazy I was... But then, how much can one expect to do in a day? so today will be my good day for yoga I hope.. Afterall, to start a nice thing time or date does not matter no?

Disappointment

As I stood in front of the ocean,
I asked, how far can I see the horizon?
Oh, the light limits your vision,
This is because of terrestrial refraction.
Disappointment!

Yummy food, arranged in a nice array,
I piled my plates to eat all the way,
Too much said my tummy,
Too little said the craving bunny.
Disappointment!

The ears were relieved as the silence continued,
The mind started its own feud,
Can't the silence last longer I prayed,
But the thoughts in my head refused to fade.
Disappointment!

In my dreams I bounced on the clouds,
And wondered if I could ever feel that in reality,
I dived from a plane on the clouds,
But learnt that gravity was the reality.
Disappointment!

The sweet smell of rose,
In its fragrance, time froze,
It tickled the romance within,
Before I knew, it dried up therein.
Disappointment!

Alas, the soul was set free to explore,
There are no rules, I was told,
Can I go try this new game I implore,
My master said, your not allowed to explode.
Disappointment!
