Evening with her

As I was standing on the sea shore, a wave of euphoria touched my feet
Her wish, to stand beside me to watch this sunset

My mind went back to those days, .... Isolated path where
I walked without aims, hopes and dreams.
She came from distance towards me, sometimes walked besides me
Often a smile, mostly silence she gifted me
Never I noticed her,
She was besides me in my crisis period still I was
Bothered about the one's who were not with me
For whom I spent my time and energy
Regularly she message me, chat with me
She finds time to call me when I was bored and lonely
No special relationship I felt with her
until I saw my monthly mobile bill
Though she tried to open her heart, I never gave her a chance
Distance was my answer for her
Without complaints or fights 
She flew away from me all of a sudden
With formal farewell words and talks
As time passed, I missed her messages and phone calls
I decided to fly and bring her back to my life
Her only wish was to be with me, to spent time with me

Now that girl is my life, dreams and hopes
She inspires me through out the day
Holding her close to me in this evening 
makes me feel alive and fresh

Through my eyes

When I had a long gaze in your eyes
Seed of unrecognized love
Deeply hidden in your heart germinated.
Eyes were twinkling, like the stars I see at night
Words that flow revealed nothing
But your silence spoke everything
Gestures proved suppressed emotions
Happiness sprout out as smile
that makes your cheeks glow 
Gentle touch with your soft palm
Heals all the wounds and pain
Love hidden at your finger tip
Passes over in a single touch
When you imitate my actions
cuteness and childishness in you rises
Dryness when you miss me
Wipe off your pleasant mind
Excitement in your face on seeing me
Blossom the petals of happiness
You brighten my life with your love,
care and support

What I see in you

Whenever we turn over the pages of a story or go through the lines in a poem we can see the beauty of a girl described in different manner, different style, variety of comparisons to narrate her beauty physically as well as mentally. Why not we describe the beauty of a man’s mind? I am writing this for you to know how special you are for me. Its not simple to describe you in a few words from dictionary because you are above all the words I could give, above the descriptions I can give.

The moment I see you, my feelings flows endless like a river

It takes its course in all possible ways beyond my control

When I think about you, feel so proud

Your love and care attracts people towards you

Its more powerful than the magnetic force

Your love is a hallow for your loved ones

Nobody wish to stay away from your love

Your words are so soft , to heal all pain

Your touch, so gentle to soothen mind

 hands, so warm to stay forever

Your divine heart ,to stay close always

Your feet, where I could place myself with trust

When I am with you, the realistic world disappears

Leading me to a world of hills and mountains at the zenith of love

 Valleys flowing with streams of love

Silence of love, birds chirping the love songs,

 Blowing of love breeze,trees with green love leaves

The trust others keep on you, an asset exclusively for you

Character makes people love you

Your unconditional love, make others jealous

Those with you are really blessed and lucky

I cherish the moments I spent with you

wish I could spent more time with you

Loving you, the most beautiful feel

anyone in this world wish to have 

When I think about you, a smile blossoms

you are the only reason for the 

flowers of happiness in my garden

I bow myself before you

In your absence

 I feel like

... the fish taken out of water

and dropped in land

..the leaves that wither

and fall in autumn

... the seeds that do not germinate

in lack of water and minerals

... the sky full of black clouds

making the day so dull and dry

... a desert without an oasis

to relax and rest in between

.... a baby without smile and cuteness

in the absence of mother

...a flower without fragrance

... the morning without dew on buds

Feel so empty

Visit to Mysore Palace

When I decided to visit Mysore palace I did not know anything other than Tippu Sultans residence. At the entrance could see a crowd of street vendors with many kind of items from eatables, hangings, fancies etc. In spite of these people, on one side there was a street exclusively for the sale of bags, toys, chappals. Moving forward to reach the counter, I was surprised to see the ticket cost. If you are a foreigner you need to pay above Rs200( exact amount I cant remember). Is this a kind of financial revenge for stealing our wealth years back? If the answer is yes or no , I cant accpet to this custom, mainly we demand equality for all in all fields. Foreigner is a person who does not belong to that locality, in that case I was also a foreigner but unfortunately or fortunately I dint have to pay that much.

Once you enter the palace compound , you can see different kind of people -school children, couples, family. Your baggage will be checked at the entrance , and you will be moved forward to see the garden and palace in wide view. When you are about to enter the palace , we had to remove our sandals and give in the counter where there is a board hanged "THIS IS A FREE SERVICE. NO CHARGE APPLICABLE". Again you become a terrorist, :) second check for baggage. Now there device makes a beep beep for your video camera. I don't know then what was the purpose of first check. Again you need to walk back to the first checking place to place your camera in a locker. Back to the palace entrance your third check and ticket will be asked.

After all this I did not feel I am entering a royal palace, it was like entering the national border.

Saw many idols placed inside glass rooms, but the carvings were beautiful on the wall and roof. A silver door which was tall enough to gaze at, durbar where the king met his ministers, royal stairs, images of kings with thick and long moustache, royal chairs, the windows where the royal females used to stand and watch happenings in durbar, the roof had carvings of ten avatars of Lord Vishnu, thick pillars and a wide huge hall where the king rested and watched the ground and fights. There was not much to see with eagerness, I found there is a loss in the royal majestic look of the palace.Somewhere maintainance using plastics has caused a dullness in the proud look. 

Once you step out and walk there is a temple where you enter like a park and get out. Even after giving the priest Rs 10 he did not give prasadam. What temple ! What priest!

Yet another palace was waiting for us, but had to take a new ticket and the routine repeats ( separate charge for foreigner :) ) Decided not to see any more palaces

And we had a walk inside the compound, poor elephant being tortured in the name of Elephant Safari. This is not what is tourism, this is what is looting of money from common man in the name of tourism. 

Sorry we had to take our chappals, the board hanged was just a hanging , when they returned the chappal they ask for tip. So no free service. Same in the locker where we kept our camera.

Nothing is free of cost.

If Tipu was alive I dont think he will entertain this kind of act

From there we decided to go back to our room

Search for...

Eyes move to and froth the rack
Vision blurred to trace thy path
Palms touch apparent coverings
Insensitive to feel close
Wandering heart in search of a genre

From Gandhi, Nehru, Tagore, Premchand
MT, Basheer, Thakazhi, Uroob,
Bill Gates, Obama, Diana,Mandela.
Shakespeare, Dickens, Hardy, Eliot

Thirst never ends, hunt never stops.

The wanderer paused.
Adorable cover page bewitched the mind
Scripted simply with alluring fonts
Pragmatic likeness mesmerized my thoughts
Eyes interlocked with impressive words
A sigh of relief, mind feel calm.

Journey

While crossing the over bridge

and waiting in the platform

eagerly waiting for the caterpillar model

An express that passed through

vibrated the entire platform

making me feel so scared 

Largest sector providing employment

We read the budget, 

new services for many places,

still over all condition pertains-

Inability to sit in comfortable mode

Sun rays making it hot

Lack of holdings to place the bottle

No latches to hold the fold table

No music nor anything to entertain

Many times there appears mess waalas

with tea, coffee, lays, drinking water

People rushed in to reach home

and join with their families

Black coated man make no compromise

giving the slips for many

and counting the currencies given

Never I had a tiresome and

bore journey 

The kids on my side captured my attention

with their little naughtiness, smiles and noises

Some cried out loudly

in demand for some foodies

some were busy grinding the biscuits

taking the drinks given by their moms

As the clock moved

they started playing with me

They lead me until I reached

my destination

by sharing love happiness and smiles

Work area

I was uprooted from my native place
to a totally strange land
new faces, new culture, new slang
everything appeared new in my eyes

Had to sit in a room, surrounded by vouchers
full of letters and digits
Numerals attracted me , motivated me to
sit for long and find solutions

As days pass, the day came when
I had to find a historic piece
Climbed the stairs to reach the museum
Everything was hidden one below the other

On seeing my colleague wearing a green mask ,
I got confused , am I entering an Operation theater
But , accumulated dust tried to escape as I opened the door

Within seconds I covered my nostrils

Had to pull out tonnes of vouchers
just to realize the task was uneasy
Mind was scared, whether any reptiles
made burrows beneath the sacks

Was it a junkyard?
It stored documents belonging to years before my birth
Hidden treasures seems to be of no use
Still they are preserved for wastage of space and energy

Ferry

Along the river bank I walked
Saw the horizon, beautifully laying
attracting my mind
A ferry on the shore , moved gracefully
with the ripples
captured my eyes and I trudged
to reach her
She held my hands and pulled 
me close to her
While sitting on her, I saw the beauty of 
the nature, the river, the sky
and everything around me
The cold breeze passed that way
to shut my eyes
..........................
.......................
Opened my eyes , unbelievable,
she took me to an island
Felt, someone holding my palm
Saw him besides me
Who placed him there?
How and When did he?
I did not have answer
But He is with me .. 
to roam about in that island
Where no one will come to disturb

Unrealized Love

There was a time in my life,
Even after walking besides you
 you never knew what I was
If I looked in your eyes
you never saw my eyes on you
When I was talking with you
you never heard my words for you
While sharing a smile
you never noticed the happiness in me
When we shared the dishes
never you fathom my care for you
When I divulged the secrets in me
you din't realize the trust I keep on you
While travelling together
you did not feel anything special
When I wept at night
you never knew the reason
When I gifted you my time
you never accepted it
While I was enjoying the moments with you
Never ever you perceived my feel towards you
Never you sensed my love for you
Never you visualized my life with you

I wish ..........

Every time I hear my ringtone
I wish its your call
Every time I find a message symbol
I wish its from your heart
Every time I travel
I wish you were besides me
Every time I walk in the street
I wish you accompany me

Whenever I see my shadow
I wish it blend with yours
Whenever I feel a cold breeze
I wish you walk towards me
Whenever I close my eyes
I wish to see you when I open
Whenever I feel my pulse
I wish you could control it

Monsoon

Here comes the monsoon

in her natural form,

flooding the rivers,sinking the shores

washing away the land,

taking away many lives

leaving behind loneliness, pain

and tears

But,

 her beauty, admired by all

her arrival , what we all wait for

people travel long distances

to fill their eyes with cumulonimbus,

where her strength is hidden

The cold wind accompanying her

takes away the umbrella you carry

for self protection

A cup of coffee with your loved one

as the rain drops silently

You love walking with her

she hugs you with love

Monsoon, the season of love

and new births,peacocks

dance with colourful feathers

makes you feel relaxed and joyful

She became His Princess

Long time back, granny 

narrated a story that describes

about a palace and the prince

on the hill-top

 in search of his princess

Unaware about her birth, native place,

life and interests

He built his own world

Distance kept them away

for long years

Over a period of time......

she started her journey , along the woods

forests, mountains and valleys

Asked the path that leads to him

Nobody could give her an answer

Years and years she travelled

to reach besides him

The deed day of their meeting arrived

Eyes communicated , heart listened

Angels in heaven arranged

the weddings bells and flowers

and composed the tone of marriage

And from then on

She became the Princess of His World

I came to You

As I was sitting near the window

the raindrops falling outside

spread the fragrance of new birth

I could not control my mind

Moved out in rain,

spherical drops appeared slanting

Making me remember the slides seen in park.

I stopped my journey on a seashore

Mind was in search of something precious

Though I was not trained to swim

I fall into the depth of ocean

Waves took me to the ocean bed

Fishes gliding in cluster

Special type algae, planktons, organisms

Also,

Inability of Raindrops to reach so deep

put me in wonder

I found a hidden shell among 

the sea rocks

Out of curiosity I moved forward

with a panicked mind 

to find the hidden treasure waiting for me

Gently opened the shell

wow!!!

 Nacre, the mother of pearl,

Hidden inside the shell for years and years

waiting for my touch and presence

A priceless gift I could ever

get in my life

Love Bird/s

Eggs that hatch on the treetop nest
Gave birth to a Love bird
Fore limbs developed into beautiful wings
with full of weightless but colorful feathers
Gently flying to reach him in the cave,
On the island full of grape yards
With his sharp and steady beak 
 He picked the bunch of green grapes
and shared with her
His feathers embraced her
To protect from sun rays, rain drops
and snow fall 
Trust and care kept her alive
Ground touching tree vines became swing
Forest Streams glides silently,
seeing their happiness
Fallen leaves,as a carpet for their feet
Trees shed flowers
to decorate a beautiful bed
and a canopy of roof
Natures hands safe guard them,
their ever lasting Love.

When I ............

When I sit besides you, I feel alive in heaven

My eyes are blessed to see you 

My ears are eager to hear you 

My voice loves saying "I love you"

When I wake up in the morning my eyes search for you

My Heart is lucky to keep you safe

My palm love to hold you close

My feet is embarrassed when its walking with you

When I am near you My feelings are at zenith

My fingers love to touch your feet

My mind loves to live in your thoughts

My body wish to be near you forever and ever

Love

River of your love

turned its course 

in the month of December,

the eve of christmas, 

when santa comes with

bags of gifts.

My feel for you flows endless

My love for you is countless

Our love,

 neither conditions nor limits

Only dreams, hopes and

expectations around us ,

to make us live the life 

the way we wish

Our love takes us to a wonderful world

What a love is this

Seeing you, the most beautiful image

Hearing you, sweetest sound

Being with you,

loveliest feeling..

No title

As I was walking through the streets,
most of the days were misty
I am not sure about the seasons
Atmosphere seems to be cloudy
with an emptiness in front of me
Sometimes I feel scared to look straight
from where I learnt the habit
of looking the ground
Rarely my eyes saw you
Heart saw you frequently
but seems to be unrecognized

I was afraid to talk with you
as i know
we differ a lot in our likes,
dislikes, tastes and visions
Heart realized the distance between
you and me
Never I wished to disturb you
Never I wish to come in your path
Enjoyed seeing your happiness
from distance
Tried to be with you
in your sadness

Letter for you

When I see the tree shedding leaves I sigh with a deep relief, reason is none other than you. Dryness of summer never touches me when you are with me. Looking at the crescent moon, thinking about our sweet moments a smile appears on my face. Without air life never survives you are my air. Closeness resides in our heart, love and care never dies, as long as we are alive your love cannot be compared, you are special in your own way .I feel so relaxed when I am with you. What I feel for you cannot be expressed in words or digits, it can only be felt.

I may not be the perfect choice for you, but still I love you. I may have thousands of faults but still I love you. I feel sorry for not studying MBBS, do you know why? If I knew I would have cut opened myself to show you there is not even a single cell in my body that does not have any feel for you. 

If you are the net, I am willing to be the fish.

If you are the rain I am ready to be a desert

If you are the flower I am the bee

If you are the pen, I am always paper for you

If you are the cleaner, I am the dust

If you are the wave, I am the footprint on the shore

When you are the foot, I become your sandals

When you are thirsty, I take the form of water

When you are sleepy, I am your mattress

 

Whatever you are, I am with you for all those reasons

I always enjoy the moments even if u are away from me, or never u noticed me or never u realized what is in me.Moments become sweet when you are present. Your presence makes my life so special ..:) You have a magical power that makes your touch with in depth feel.

Miss you

Distance, the needle that pierce

Into my heart when

 I am away from you.

Heaviness of my heart form

Nimbus clouds, and pours down

In the form of tears

Rivers flooded in it.

Cause of nature’s dislike remain

Unknown to the world

When you stay far away

I feel isolated in the

Island of loneliness

When I don’t hear you

I feel the world around is dump

Inability to see you

Makes me think, I am blind

You have taken away the

Colours, sounds and fragrance

Along with you

Rainbow of life become colourless

In your absence

Miss you

വിധി

നിന്നിൽ നിന്നകലാൻ
വിധി വന്ന നിമിഷം
മനസ്സിന്റെ കോണിൽ
പ്രതീക്ഷയുടെ ഉറവിടം
വറ്റിവരണ്ടു പോയി .

പറയാനാവാത്ത പ്രണയം
ഒരു നേർത്ത നൊമ്പരമായ്

കാറ്റിൽ പറത്തി
നൂൽപൊട്ടിയ പട്ടം പോല -
തെവിടെയ്ക്കെന്നില്ലാതെ
പറന്നകന്നു .

നീ അരികിലില്ലാത്ത
നിമിഷമെങ്ങനെയെന്നു
ചിന്തിക്കാനായില്ലെനിക്ക് .

വേരറ്റു പോയ മരമായ്‌
ഞാൻ മാറി .

അകലങ്ങളിൽ നീ കൂടെ
വേണമെന്ന മോഹമെന്നെ
പിടിച്ചുലച്ചു .

നീയറിയാതെ നിന്നെ സ്നേഹിച്ച
നിമിഷങ്ങളെ ഓർത്തും
താലോലിച്ചും

Without your love

Days are not bright

Nights appear to be darker

Summers are extreme hot

Winters with minus temperatures

Springs without blossom of flowers

Autumn with no snow fall

Blue sky seems colourless

Green leaves do not move gracefully

Red rose does not appeal my eyes

Winds do not make me cold

Waterfalls stay still

And stagnant streams

Arrival takes long time

With fast departures

Life is empty in this world

Without your love
