Friendship


This poem is all about the joys of friendship.


A day goes by with all in hand
For friends I met and shared all in a glance
If the walls are too high
I know I'll be helped even if blind

If the beauty lies in the times
Then why do we feel empty waiting till it binds
Music all around and I feel like a hopping grasshopper
And the laughter tells who is the giver

My friends have been close touching the fabric of me and Them
Still gasping for more while I take and lend
All is good for the future still preserves today
So I say what comes after swimming in the warm bay

Bewilderment to the eye how is he so happy inside
When another one jokes and then he says his goodbyes
Still laughing for the moment caressed the hurting Distance
Again he'll meet and we shall joke without resistance

Sikkim- Rhenock to Nathu La Pass

Image
Nathu La Pass   Nathu La Pass is in the Dongkya range of the Himalayas and has a history of strategic importance because of its location on the old silk route. It is at a height of 14200 ft. It was closed after the 1962 war between India and China, and was reopened for trade on 5th July, 2006. During my short visit to East Sikkim, it was nothing less than a dream come true adventure for me when I visited it on 2nd Nov 2022. The sentiment of the people looking at the Chinese side was tinged with patriotic fervour. All kinds of patriotic slogans could be heard. At Nathu La pass The drive to Nathu La pass was the most mesmerizing one - giving the feeling of approaching the Kanchenjunga at every turn. The beauty of the breathtaking magnificence of Kanchenjunga is  entrenched in my memory. Kanchenjunga - as seen while driving up t0 the Nathu La pass. On the way, we stopped at the world's highest golf course - Yak golf course - courtesy Indian army. The picturesque Yak golf course h...

Two sides of speech

Image
“Mend your speech a little lest it mar your fortunes”  King Lear – Shakespeare Standing alone in a gathering, feeling left out, losing audience’s attention while expressing views on something – a nightmare for many. Why? There can be umpteen reasons varying from person to person. Result - some are conscious of their appearance whereas others are conscious of their voice or language. In fact, there are many who are paranoid about being laughed at or criticized. Such intimidating feelings can give sleepless nights to people of all age groups. Formal or informal – whatever the situation may be – the loners shy away without the confidence of being able to vent out their thoughts and feelings. On the flip side, some suffer from verbal diarrhoea. We run away from them as we find no interest in their verbosity – their never ending prolix. Shakespeare sensed it while giving us King Lear. We require speaking skills in every area of our life - personal life, social situations an...

Amarnath - The mysterious, the mighty… the blissful

Image
On 2 nd  July, 2017, I stood under the water dripping from top and got soaked in the bliss. Looking up, I noticed the two white pigeons – the manifestations of the omnipotent. The last step of my long awaited ‘Amarnath yatra’ overwhelmed me with tears of gratitude. I was numbed by the majestic beauty of the place and the omnipotence of Lord Shiva. Suddenly, I became aware of others and heard someone talking about the Sheshnag mountain… and the one with the impression of the footprint of Lord Shiva. I looked back and noticed that the mountain really looked like a ‘Sheshnag’. And the breathtaking ice Shivlinga mesmerized everyone to such an extent that one just couldn’t take one’s eyes away from it. My Amarnath yatra was exciting and adventurous – the valley looked so serene from the chopper that we took to cover some distance. Like every year, there were apprehensions connected to the visit – I too experienced my bit but it was nothing in front of what I got by taking a...
