Seasons, hues and moods

In the bronze glow of the summer day,
in the greens of wheat and chromes of hay,
like a speck of gold on these emerald parks,
she sparks and darts, frolicking with larks.

In the bleak open skies of the autumn's eve,
in the browns of leaves and as old trees grieve,
like a silver swan with a fore-telling cry,
she sings across lakes and hailing end of dry.

In the wisps of drizzle of the rainy morn,
in the rolling streams over round stones worn,
like a gentle tulip over shiny moss,
she blushes and smiles with lips so gloss.

In the grays and whites of the winter night,
in the tart chilly breeze and doors shut tight,
like a tender flame in the crackling fire,
she dances and capers with joy and no tire.

P.S.
Whatever the season, whatever the hue,
whatever the mood and even when I am blue,
you fill me with joy and keep bothers at bay,
for you my love, 
I write this song on this day,
`Coz if I know what love is, it is because of you!

My First Crush

Memory is a child walking along a seashore. You never can tell what small pebble it will pick up and store away among its treasured things! Here I am today, sharing with you, a beautiful memory of My First Crush, which tickles me and brings a smile, whenever it crosses my mind. It was magical fall of 2003, when I saw him for the first time, in a wedding reception, midst of happy faces, positive emotions, flowers, lights, food and music- a perfect setting! I was busy chatting with friends and family, meeting new people, catching up with acquaintances and that's when he caught my eyes. Dressed in a light peach shirt and a black Armani suit, that charming face, sporting a perfect smile, didn't fail in leaving me spellbound. He was one of the groomsmen, with mesmerizing hazel eyes, who succeeded in impressing me, without even trying! He caught me staring and smiled, leaving me embarrassed. Unprepared for this, I became conscious despite looking my best, and hasti...

My Idea of GOD

A few months back, while bidding adieu, my sister hung up the phone with the words "Jai Bhagwan". This was new, I thought she picked it up from somewhere and hence I ended up asking her, "what does it mean?". She in her naive words said - "Though Hinduism has the concept of Polytheism, I don't wanna differentiate and do partiality amongst God's. So from now on I will hail all as - Jai Bhagwan". She giggled and logged off, stirring some new thoughts in my head. Coming from a religious South Indian Hindu family, I was taught about religion, customs, etc. from very childhood. I never questioned nor doubted the existence of God. I still remember learning hymns from my grandmother and chanting them. There's an incident from my childhood, which I always reckon whenever I think about God. I was in 4th standard and when I lost my notebook a day before my finals, I got tensed and went crying to my Grandmother. She wiped my tears and asked me ...

Will I fit back in??

Before one and a half years I flew from India to US of A with lots of dreams in my eyes. Back in India, everyone I knew told me that after a few years in US, I won't feel like coming back.  Reasons given were pollution, population, law and order, cleanliness, education system, technology, resources, recognition of talent, opportunities, etc, just to name a few from that long long list. Discussions and opinions bounced around the table, which flooded my mind. It's been a while I am here. It was tough initially, in fact very tough, being away from the people I love, care and share with, but eventually I had to learn 'going the distance' thing. For me it was the first time I was out of my comfort zone, away from 'my home'. Here I was to take decisions and then live the consequences, whether good or bad. In simple words I was responsible for all my acts and deeds. So many new things, it was beyond what people generally mention about a new countr...
