Surprise ! Surprise !!! One more to add to my reminiscences !!!


On our 2nd anniversary, my hubby decided to give me the biggest surprise of my life. He did something that he's never done before - He wrote me a poem !! :-) Though he's always flooded me with gifts & surprises, this was definitely the most meaningful & unforgettable gift ever. With all my heart & with all my love, thanks baby !!!

So take a look at his writing experiments !!!

My Wife

A moment, when bliss is the summit
An hour, when gloom doesn’t step in
A day, when the rains encapsulate it
Was a long longed one, wished I could have it.

A season, where spring rules with seldom summers
A story, where hero wins with seldom fights
A factual life, with good seasons and stories
Was a wish of mine, longed faultily to have it.

Now, it would state all, on any day
Now, it has become all true, on all days
Now, it is a phenomenon, all my life to devote to
Was a long longed wish of mine, finally accomplished.

Its all a state of grandeur, for the rest of life
Its all the upshot of two years, for the rest of life
Its all the worship of two years, for the rest of life
Was a long longed life of mine, finally accomplished.

The Promise of Love was written for my husband (then fiance!) on his bday last year with whom I'm happily married for the past 10 months now. This month, on his bday i have posted the poem that i wrote for him. For you, Kutta !!!

The Promise of Love


Every morning I wake up in your warm thoughts
and feelings that all my life I have sought

With every passing day, I know you more
With every passing hour, I love you more

Since I met you, I cant help feeling blessed
And thrilled that together, You & I will remain abreast

The reason why this day is important to me
Is coz it the start of a chain of events that led you to me

No one I have ever loved this way
Deep down in the secret chambers of my heart, is where you'll always stay

Locked in an embrace & sealed with a kiss,
The day we wed will be the start of endless bliss

Awaiting the hour when we will be together
On this day, I swear that I will love you forever

My father

I have been trying to find someone like you,
So strong, so kind, so pure, so true,
But i havent found anyone,
Cause you're the only one,
You taught me things,
Which no one else did,
made me understand things,
Yet, things you forbid,
I cant imagine a life without you,
Cause i need you all my life through.

Life

Life is bad yet,
With joy, its been a long time since i met,
Its not how it used to bem
When i would even love to climb a tree,
Now i wish to be by myself,
Cutting out all connections from my dear & near ones themselves,
Is everything going to be alright ?
Or do i have to wait for long days and nights.
But yet, somewhere from my heart, comes an answer, "yes",
Not for sorrows and fright,
But for happiness and delight.

Stop existing, start living

It was roses, roses all the way
In my dream that i am to say
of the world that i see
that no longer could be
without doing what we can
After all, dont think ure just there
Theres lots that we can do
the hurdles would seem so few
If ever we could see
the country that would be
Our sons & daughters
Would see no tears but laughters !
All we must do is wait & listen
What it says inside, just listen,
Is it right to do what we are ?
Lets live in unity, we'd go very far,
lets live our life full of consecration
That will result in our very own National Integration.

Nostalgic Holiday

I left my heart at the place i love
Its time it called me home
Morning falls, dark silence
But no, no calls,
Is it this mystic solitude
Which makes it my very own
Tender memories fading away ?
Amidst acts & thoughts
Night falls, breaking light
But no, no call at all
Hurt at this ecstasic moment
Mixed feelings reveal nostalgia,
Its time it called me home tonight,
I remember the winds that blow
I can still see the kitchen door
And i can still feel the delicatelove
of my own lovely, sweet home,
But no call, not as yet,
The place i love never will come to me,
Unless to visit my heart, I go home.

The Hidden Reality

In vain I struggle to reveal my true self
In this darkened world
This world of illusion where
No care of bother is taken
To remove the veiled realities.
The crystal shines
Far too deep to be felt.
When all of a sudden
The door opens letting out
A feeling – ecstasic
But short lived
For the sweetness of outward sensations
Come in, are felt & are too swift to be rejected
The veiled truth remains – unfelt by travelers
By whom the sweetness of truth cannot be felt
For the dirty & ugly elements
Made wonderful by a covert predominates
The thick curtains cannot be removed
Or they may not be removed for as long as falsehood dominates truth
It prevails – concealing the living, subdues truth
