Homecoming..

Yes, here, I am coming
Back to the land of my own
To the narrow yet beautiful roads.
Back to where the birds to you will talk
As they fly by your homes in flocks.
Back to the loving group of friends
I had left behind and went away to fend.
Back to the teracces, so high and open
Where I stood dreaming, so very often.
Back to the grand and big festivities
To the mouthwatering sweet delicacies.
Back to my loving and small little family
Who wait for me with eyes twinkling happily.
Yes, here I am coming
Back to my land, back to my HOME.
HOME SWEET HOME!!!!!

Bollywood Masti (Hindi Poetry?????nah.........)

Darling, "Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam",
Tum Mujhse "Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna".
Iska jo bhi ho "Anjaam",
Humey kisise nahin hain "Darr".
Mein tumhare saath hoon, ho "Kabhie Khushi Kabhi Gham",
Aakhir "Maine Pyar Kiya", "Pyar Kiya tho Darna kya"?
Mere Man Mein hain "Hazaron kwahishen aisi",
Jo "Sapnay" mere "Mann" mein hain basi.
"Pyar mein Kabhi Kabhi", dekho, "Kuch kuch hota hain",
Pehle tha tapori aur aaj "Raju ban gaya gentleman" kehlaata hain.
"Aap ki khaatir" mere dil ka jahaan hain haazir,
Mere "Dil" ka tum hi ho "Aakhri Manzil".
Baiteen hoon mein apni "Saajan" ki intzaar mein,
Ek na ek din "Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaaenge"...

I, Me, Myself....

As I reached out to the stick,
You gave me your hands to hold.
As I leant forward for support,
"My shoulders are there for you", you told.
As I moved ahead to hold your hands,
The earth slipped off me like sand.
As I came to lean on your shoulders,
My earth came crashing down like boulders.
There was no one beside me,
For me to lean, or for me to hold.
I was standing, all by myself,
All alone, at the end of the road.....

SHOWERS

The clouds darken in the sky
The sun becomes a little too shy.
The songs of birds lingering in the air
As they fly back to their nests with care.
The trees swaying in the breeze
As though they were shivering with freeze.
The darkness that spreads all over
As the sun shies away and the clouds take-over.
The clouds take pictures of the world below
As they meet with laughter and thunder so roar.
As they fall into the earth as tiny droplets
Filling the air with soothing smells.
The trees and plants dance in fun
As they say goodbye to the sun.
The clouds have shed tears of their joy
And its time for them to say goodbye.
As they move away and go on a stride
The sun shines again with all its pride.
And so we learn the way if life
After darkness, there is always a sunshine.

My Poem

Dreams........


I dream of you and me together,Living happily forever.
I dream of my hands in yours,A gesture that always asseeures.
I dream of our little house,With you as my loving spouse.
I dream of a simple life,With me as your dutiful wife.
I dream of being in your arms,Forever sunken in its warmth.
I dream of silly little fights,Which would make our bond more tight.
I dream of walking on the seashore,Bringing us close a little more.
I dream of having our little ones,Which would add a lot more fun.
I will keep dreaming foreverTill the sun rises, never.
