Bhai Tika


Your Blessings are incredible beloved sisters 

I was young and much happy then as a brother

Your prayers with marrygold elegant garland 

Was the symbol of protection against all evil.


I owe you my life for blessing me with this long life

It's almost two decades now yet your grace is alive 

The day use to be so special just being a brother king

The happiness was spontaneous gift in the sibling.


The floors you cleaned with cow-dung smelled fresher 

Than the chemical cleanser we use today as better 

The walls you white washed with clay and talc was much brighter 

Than the we do now with lime and various paints and primer.


The doors and windows you decorated with garlands 

Was more beautiful than the one with artificial flowers

The verandas and corridors you lit up with lamps 

Was much brighter than the ones with fire crackers.


Everything were all less those days yet so much more 

You didn't complain me if I gave you no penny 

The smile on your face and love in your heart was many 

For you knew the reason of celebration innocently truely.


I know you keep all these qualities for me close in your heart

I knew you have been waiting all those  years in depart

I kept my self busy making my own life you made for me 

I am sorry to make you look forward my way each year as it flee.


This time too forgive me for not  being there 

I know your past blessings will keep me healthy another year

I will keep this in mind not to disappoint you any more 

And I hope everything goes well next year for sure.

Into The Wild

Image
I ran after the cattle as a cowboy free in the wild, I ran into the wild when cattle graze in the field, I ran into the wild to collect grass for the cattle, I ran in to the wild to launch my nature call battle. I ran into the wild to cut and collect the fire woods, I ran into the wild to look for the fresh wild fruits, I ran into the wild for water, swimming & fishing, I ran into the wild for playing, roaming & hunting. I ran into the wild when I was both happy & sad, I ran into the wild when things at home were bad, I ran into the wild to grab the subject in better way, I ran into the wild to share and feel the love of joy. I ran into the wild to hide my tears and express sorrow, I ran into the wild seeking joy & happiness for tomorrow, I ran into the wild for my daily bread and butter to live, I ran into the wild for a gemstone and is hard to believe. I ran into the wild so wild now I knew the reason to keep I would keep running into the wild many miles before I slee...

The Morning Walk

Image
The soporific night welcomes the dawn, The dews gently take the eternal leave from the lawn, My slothful eye wakes me up from the sleepless night, The indolent body of mine creeps out to see the stunning sight!  The Eastern horizon ablaze in azure red, My heart beholds that beauty which shall never fade, The feet are dragging my body too slow for my splendor now, Let’s walk to that hilltop my love to embrace deeper as our vow! The sun is crawling up behind that majestic mountain, It’s rays stealing the kisses to the Himalayas akin love fountain, The moon gallops down the Western horizon with the smile, And the stars above twinkling say we can walk for thousand miles! The views down the hill to the plain is breathtaking, You can listen to the melodious songs of the birds they are singing, Feel your hair and rosy cheeks the fresh morning breeze caressing, Close your eyes to merge your soul in this serenity and keep witnessing! The white blossoms of the grasses so enticing to dance, L...

Coming Home

Image
I wish I was Back, For the Final Time Altogether, With All The Dollars In A Sack, I Told after Checking-In To My Brother !  My Friends and Family,  Back In Canberra Were Jealous, And Wished Me Safe Journey Sadly, Coming Home From Abroad is Fabulous!  The Long Hours Flight, All Alone In Crowd of New Faces, Lost In Mixed Thoughts Was No Delight, The accompanied Lone Travellers in Races!  Dragging Trolley Through Gates, Standing In Queues For Ones Identity, What an Irony of Human Security in Fate? The Boarding Gate Opens With Hospitality!  The Tiny Steel Bird, Unlike Huge Ones In The West, Looks Much Closer To The Heart, For The Home Coming Is Only The Best! Flying Through The Clouds, And The Giant Himalayas Range, Was The Heaven Feelings of No Doubts, That The Roar of The Dragon Wasn’t Strange!  I am Home Finally, Our Angels Ran To My Arms, They Hugged Me Tight Tearfully,  My Missing Pieces of Heart Felt So Warm!  I Could Once More, Smell The Homely...
