2007…..a year to cherish…..

2007 was when………
when we got a job………
when we passed out of college….
when we made new amazing friends…..
when some of us moved to a new city…..
when some of us celebrated our 22nd ( 23rd) birthdays…..

when we waved good bye to our buddies leaving to the states for higher studies…

when some of us fell in love……..
when some of us fell out of love
when some of us got hurt
when some of your ‘friends’ screwed up your love life…
when some ‘one’ you liked, did not like ‘you’….

2007 when
when we would have made mistakes
when we made life decisions…….
when these decisions turned out to be a tragedy
when some of us felt lonely ….

the eternal waiter

the sun descends down the western horizon.
the bleating lambs,baying cattle
and chirping birds return home.
on the solitary banks of the stream
whose blue water is crimson
by the parting kiss of the dusk
i sit alone,waiting.
waiting for the night to advance!
for the day to emerge from the womb of the night.
for whom do i wait?
does he knows i am waiting?
perhaps life is an eternal wait,an endless waiting.

the answer

what is good?
i asked in an amusing mood.
order, said the law court.
knowledge,said the school.
truth,said the wise
pleasure said the fool.
love, said the poet.
fame ,said the dreamer.
ah! whispered my heart.
kindness is the word
that gives you peace in the world.
