Shelley's me

Teach me half the gladness
        That thy brain must know,
    Such harmonious madness
        From my lips would flow
The world should listen then, as I am listening now!


Lucky to have a few sincere critics around :)  they never fail to tell (as and when they get aware of) me the truth, at least their perception of it .

Getting complaints of being melancholic!
Not sure who and what to blame. Looking around for an answer..


We look before and after,
        And pine for what is not:
    Our sincerest laughter
        With some pain is fraught;
Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.

Thank You All :)

10,000+ Blog Views !!!!

Some 2 years back when I found my space in blog world, I hadn't imagined in my wildest dream that people would actually come to my page and pay attention to my scribble(as it might look like to many out there) :)!
Today when I receive a comment on my posts or notice visitors' count growing , I feel contented that my writings must be making some sense to at least few of these visitors around the world( much to my surprise!!).

I feel privileged and deeply touched.


MANY THANKS & HAPPY BLOGGING :)
your comments are always welcome.

दांव

आज-कल
कुछ ज्यादा नज़र आती है

मेरी गलतियाँ मुझको
सचेत;
आस पास मंडराती हुईं ..

हर वक़्त, हर बात पर मेरी
प्रतिक्रियाएं देखती हुई

मेरे हंसने का कारण
मेरी चुप की वजह,
मेरे चलने के रास्ते
मेरी थमने की जगह।

मेरे हर शब्द की परिभाषा
मेरी हर सोच का इतिहास,
मेरे हर एक कदम की चाल
मेरी हर इक नज़र का पास।

इतनी फिक्रमंद?
पहले तो कभी नहीं रहीं  ..

कुछ फैसला लिख रहीं  है शायद 

इस लम्बे खेल की हार-जीत का
काफी सबूत इकठ्ठे किये है 

जीतने की उम्मीद होगी उनको,

पर मेरा दांव* देखे बिना
ख़ुशी न मना लेना .. :)

हम दोनों का निर्देशक एक ही है
और पिक्चर अभी बाक़ी है। :)

the last lines are inspired by the filmy air around, Yash Chopra Ji,  I too had a few favorites among your type of flicks :) RIP!

* move in a game, stakes

parallel lines :-/

the fate of parallel lines

they go along all the way
synced, consistent, together
only to meet never

they can be close
but must follow different tracks
to qualify as themselves

they can fade away
but cant think of merging
lest they break the rule!


and here I see coming... SO WHAT ???!!! :P

... sometimes you just get these out of the blue thoughts when you are on an off from office, lie on bed, down with cold and not able to sleep due to this irritating running nose !!! :(
