BLISSIMISTIC

Had written this when I felt like its been ages since I smiled. Just thought of a few things I like.. a few things I appreciate and a few observations that makes my mind smile and felt like penning them down.. it doesnt take much to be happy! :-)



How often do we observe,

Idyllic green curves.

Magnificence of nature,

Weird creatures.

Our panoramic view

Makes us feel we have but few

Often we forget,

Our minds happy even by a miniscule!

Fragrance of fresh flowers,

Aroma after morning showers,

Smell of the wet ground,

Listening to the heart beats pound.

A pup struggling to climb a step,

Or searching a bead in a room unkempt,

An ant trying to find its way,

On tiles that all look the same.

Looking for a friend in utter mayhem,

Or walking with them in complete rhythm,

Singing favorite songs together,

Or humming tunes totally muddled.

Though not a shriek of joy,

The soul’s gratified.

Happiness is something one discovers,

With time that passes by.

This was a lovely poem. You have created some vivid images that are so much part of everyone's shared memories. You have a fantastic ability to convey one single thought in so many different ways. I am always wary of poems that pound on a single thought...but this one was done very well. Please keep writing...

I am known for my worst timing, be it at home, college, trains, anywhere… wrong place, wrong time, wrong expression. My expression on the face and mind are absolutely tangent. Its good to some extent, considering my timing, I could’ve have easily been smacked by people like a million times. I even laugh when I know its wrong to. =| My equation at home is sort of normal. I don’t talk much. My behavioral pattern if observed is very discreet. So people (the mom, the dad) basically don’t know what all I know and what I don’t. They think I’m pretty dumb in things remotely related to the crazy hormone stuff and others (yeah right!) For eg: a few months back my mom asked me if I know what ‘rape’ meant. To which I subtly nodded a yes without looking at her though my mind was blaring that my gyaan attained soaring heights in 7 th grade alright… I know what these tiny words mean! *rolls eyes* The key here is the awkward silence that prevails. The clash at times is so freaking-ly unbelievabl

Go Die !

I stand at the edge now. Giving up all I have, or maybe the ‘nothing’ that I’ve achieved. People whom I know and otherwise have their fingers pointing towards me making weird gestures. What a chaos! My mind’s thinking too loud for me to even listen to their pleas. All I can hear is my heart beating in my head, loud and clear. Why are they even concerned about me? Do I owe them anything? I have done enough wrongs and I cannot take this shit anymore. I hate my life. There’s nothing right that’s happening and I know I’m a burden to my parents. Look at these people begging to me right now.. Should I give up my life? I guess .. To witness a suicide is an experience in itself. I saw one today and I was cold for hours. A girl standing on the parapet of a 7-storey high building, facing towards the entrance of the terrace only to see people screaming, begging and pleading not to jump. I was unquestionably disturbed by the sight. I had the feeling of my head going totally numb, mouth dry and

FUTURISTIC WORLD

Suffice to say, its set in the future, Earth is over-crowded, and there’s no room to move. Maybe the cities on the planet have grown so much that they’ve merged into one big, planet-sized, city. With the ever hiking population crisis that we (the world) are facing, growth as a city, in t erms of infrastructure and services becomes very critical. The revolution has started already. Overcrowding of cities has forced the planners to look beneath the land. For instance, the New Amsterdam city that’s going to be constructed beneath the exi sting one. One whole city under the ground!! [ How low can it get?] The area crisis is coercing the planners to dig deeper and also, escalate vertically and beyond. I’m sure in future, technology will reach to such an opti- mum that we would erect something floating in the air too! Unbelievable Science, you see! Our existing skyline would look nothing less than an artistic mockery of national integration! People would be commuting comfortably fro
