Please visit my Hindi blog , where I have recalled some past memories on :
Twinkle Twinkle…
She has been constantly ‘same’ person making us read and write 🙂 . She has been there since when there was none to put the comments on the posts. She has creativity and festivity in her Newari lifeline. Today is her birthday, hence a small poem from this blog to her.
प्रभात की किरणें नयी नवेली,
कहीं भजन तो कहीं रंगोली।
कभी शांत तो कभी ठिठोली,
करती अनुभूति आज अठखेली ।
चाँदनी कहलाती एक अलबेली,
न माँगे गुलाब, और न बेली ।
सो भेज रहें हैं सखा – सहेली,
जन्मदिन मुबारक तुम्हें जूनेली ।
Many – many happy returns of the day to dear Juneli. Wishing you happiness, prosperity and a creative year ahead.
Happy Raksha Bandhan
Silky threads are here,
With me,
But not those,
Mehandi hands,
To tie them.
Sweets are here,
Full of shops,
But I shall,
Be hungry for one.
I have money,
Thousands today.
But 20 Rs. I gave them,
Asked from Baba,
They kept in purse, safe.
God bless,
My sisters,
With all happiness.
As their destiny –
Today is like poem only.
A real story on my Bimla didi appears at my Hindi blog.
The Night Windows
The story will be republished again after necessary grammatical editing. Please wait…
Au Revoir
From the wilds,
Some winds,
Touch my cheeks,
Do flow cool.
Of eternity.
I have to move on.
Dear, I know,
Still its day,
Evening is far,
I could have,
Stayed here back,
For a while more.
But I have to walk.
Today I shall,
Move on – on.
With my this small
World and few buds,
In a basket,
And dear friends-
One or Few.
I have to move on,
Before evening sets in.
As without Sun,
I fear dark today.
I have fullfilled –
My promises
With all smiles
True and false.
I am putting,
My crown down,
With all gratitude,
– its my destiny.
Far away –
Though forest is dark,
And I see that green
Where tribals are unkempt,
Wet mud scents,
I do smell,
Wild birds twitter,
I do hear,
They need me,
More than you.
I shall dance,
There tomorrow,
Painted in muds,
Naked kids around.
Thats a world,
Wild, but beautiful.
There I will sing,
Another song and
I shall welcome,
You all there,
Carpet of dry leaves,
Wild flowers grow there,
Over the brown bark.
Tomorrow,
Don’t call me back,
I will not be here.
Time and tide,
Will not wait for me.
Breaking my silence –
Today I have to say,
– Adieu.
Stairs
“Stairs” – (water color)
So its my first painting on the blog.
The Little Thing – 2
Be it any field, one’s originality – ingenuity – consistency on the set up measures, that makes life easy and the nice world around sets – the standards – is always followed on.
Look and Feel
The new header image is the cropped 1/3 part of my recent abstract paintings – “Stairs”. I will try to put more photographs and paintings there, to change the look and feel of the blog occasionally and share them with art lovers.
P.S.: The above described painting now appears as the condensed size in the next post , “Stairs“.
Prize !
Its a Pen ! Packed ! And today it means a lot to me ! Life always gives something in surprise – if the attitude is right !
Thanks GR.
Thousands of Thanks
Sending 25 thousands thanks to You. You have made 25,000 visits to this blog. Your consistency and encouragement motivated me to get a Nikon for capturing unexpressed moments in the stage of words.
Today, welcome all of you in my drawing room. This particular image will change periodically as per changing time and colors. I wish, I could put some more pictures frequently to express something worth thousands of words, when my literal words need them as companions.
Thanks once again.
