At dawn I pray, “Oh signal, stay,Please guide my scrolling through the day.”A single bar—my spirit shakes,The holy link begins to break. When strong, you bless my work with speed,With memes and mails, with every feed.When weak, you test my fragile core,I pace the house from door to door. I lift my phone up toContinueContinue reading “Wi-Fi, My Invisible God”

The Alarm Clock Treaty
At five o’clock it splits the sky,A banshee scream, a battle cry.I clutch my pillow, beg for grace,It sneers and blares into my face. I strike the snooze—my secret art,Ten minutes’ peace, a brand-new start.But soon it howls, a vengeful knight,Declaring loudly, “Rise and fight!” I plot escape, I stage appeals,I bury deep beneath theContinueContinue reading “The Alarm Clock Treaty”
Bleeding Heart
Walk the street, and scour the ground You find faces all around Some seem pensive, some are bright Knots in the gut, just seem all right Some indeed headed back home Cosy comfort, gift like dome Some of us do wander wild Just like sad and forlorn child Dig a bit and one will findContinueContinue reading “Bleeding Heart”
The Moon
“Pristine” is what comes to mind. Thy beauty is of precious kind. Soothing calm is what you offer. But alas! the mankind differ. We do twist and we do turn. We let human, rage and burn. We look up, but, do act down Story is same, Village or Town Let things change in Holy Eid.ContinueContinue reading “The Moon”
Songs of Life
Waking up in a happy mood Things are found just as they should Getting infected with a smile Song with you to trod the mile Wintery day when sun smiles bright Birds make merry on the flight You find warmth in the glow within Song with you in the thick and thin When that speckContinueContinue reading “Songs of Life”
Learning Path
In the morning, when I rose Saw Sun writing, happy prose Spreading light, lacking guile Seeing that I learnt to smile While I stretch, my body creeks Making sounds like breaking bricks Still my legs take mighty stride Fall or stroll, it is with pride Body parts, get in synch Written in the same brightContinueContinue reading “Learning Path”
Hello from Life
Tender flowers, slender vines Piercing thorns, conflicting signs Blazing red, or primrose yellow Way life greets, and tells you “hello” Flowers wither, vines do wilt Testing how the core is built Is it deep, or one likes shallow? Irrespective, life says “hello” Lying flat, on your back Broken soul, spirit you lack Turn it over,ContinueContinue reading “Hello from Life”
Come, Let’s Fly
All these years, I have been walking Stroll at best, when life got stalking Wearing glasses, that came for free Society gave it, to climb “growth tree” Glass change colours, as I change too Goal post shifts, as I walk through Vision blurs, as time flies by Isn’t it time, to prepare and fly? SocietyContinueContinue reading “Come, Let’s Fly”
Festive Beseech
Festive seasons, come and go Carrying along, a heady show Goodness preached, years on end But, human psyche, tough to bend Festivals are for fun and frolic Time is ripe, to roll and rollick Making sure of clean surface Festering inside, lack all grace Time for rich, to flaunt the wealth No need now, adoptingContinueContinue reading “Festive Beseech”
Sands of Time
Down the path, that’s gory and wild Running the race, old and child Some take breath, sweet sublime Making mark in the Sands of Time Flow, it will, fast or slow Some are dark, some would glow In such frenzy, avoid the slime Be a beacon in the Sands of Time Easy path have giftsContinueContinue reading “Sands of Time”
