Life.............

Life is becoming a mind twister
Ah! it is giving me blisters.

Sometimes flinching out of fear
I brood over speed at first gear.

Is it the one keeping me busy?
All I feel is am in state of tizzy.

Why am I becoming so grouchy?
rarely humble and often touchy.

Everything is so berserk
Can it be over with a jerk?

Life is not so easy rather tough
It teaches lessons n makes one rough.

Call it a urge or spark of fire
It is high time,work is dire.

Trying hard to collect d pieces of this puzle
It is difficult but would not fizzle(out).

A person can choose one's attitude
to reach high degrees of altitude.

One needs to search d soul
wander about n finds one goal.

I am becoming a believer.
things will definitely sound familiar.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didnt you?
Peopled call, say, beware doll, youre bound to fall
You thought they were all kiddin you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin out
Now you dont talk so loud
Now you dont seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Youve gone to the finest school all right, miss lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out youre gonna have to get used to it
You said youd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
Hes not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And ask him do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it aint no good
You shouldnt let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a siamese cat
Aint it hard when you discover that
He really wasnt where its at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
Theyre drinkin, thinkin that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But youd better lift your diamond ring, youd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you cant refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Youre invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Dedicated to my Work Anniversary (13th Feb)

Image
To my lovely readers,  I wanna stop by at your screen on eve of Galentine's day. Let me keep it short, hope you like my KISS ( k eeping I t S hort and S weet). Here I am, sharing TLDR version of my last year experience on first work anniversary at new work place.  Started with new hopes, never looked back, learnt a lot, met brilliant minds,  understood how good company culture can grow your personality and keeps you on toes.  A company which values DEI principles at high scale, gave me template to introduce myself which asked my pronoun. While I planned to jot down my thoughts,  I came across a comedian which emphasized every Indian parent will want their daughter to be 'SHE' and son to be 'HE', never dare to think beyond that. This company is one where I came across 'They' pronoun :) This company enriched my vocab with corporate lingo. For lack of vocab or more of knowledge, at times, I like to open can of worms, unpacking the details, to enhance my story t

Transcending love from window to balcony

Image
Today, I am making new associations in this new setting. My balcony gives me view of yellow flower bed on green grass, lake view with green necked ducks and geese around. None the less, I have not forgotten my connection with you, My Window. You had been with me throughout, letting me peek through your pane, experiencing each season.  Other day while returning home, I was brought back to you unintentionally. My muscle memory took me to by-lanes I had left. I saw blinds drawn to one side, you were awaiting for new tenant. Being newly single in market, seeking new tenant in every passerby.  Oh, was that U-Haul parked right outside for you? Never mind, it moved. And then our eyes met and we exchanged smile, as one would do seeing your own coming back. I get how you feel my window,  our  time was limited but the connection is eternal.  Love is limitless. Bounded by none. I remember our experiences day and night where we made so many memories. I moved out making space for new, so did someon

Empathetic Bench

Image
 Hey bench, I have been noticing you from far. You are so wholesome. Big hearted one, giving rest to each passerby.  I envy how much experience you gain. Everyone has their own story and you silently listen to them with full empathy. So rich, full of experience. So secretive as well. I wonder how do you stand still and spread no grapevine. Listening not only to those walking feets but also to falling leaves. Those leaves falling in sync, dancing to melodious beats of wind; some tickling your back, others settling next to your feet. As if they were destined to serve you in this heat.  Best listener. No judgement. I am assured of having a friend in you; to share some deep thoughts in twilight and dusk. Time of the day when no one is eying you so I do not have to share you. You are all mine. You deserve all the love!
