Uplifting Poem on Uncertainty during Current Times.

Uncertainty,

It has engulfed us entirely

It has made us miserable

It has made us fretful

It has made us irate

It has made us jittery…..

The looming Uncertainty,

is like a double-edged sword

unwittingly teaching us

to slow down

to rethink

to regorganize

to be more kind

to be more understanding

to be more loving…

Uncertainty

is surely exasperating

but it is making us

get in touch with ourselves

get connected to our loved ones

and see the world

from a different perspective…

Uncertainty has

helped us value what we have

and let go of what we don’t need

It has taught us

resilience and patience

courage and compassion..

Uncertainty is unnerving

Uncomfortable

and Chaotic

but strangely

it has taught us

to find Calm amid the Chaos

to find Hope amid Despair

to find Valour amid Fear

to find Happiness amid the Gloom

and to find Humanity amid Brutality..

It has shown us that

the only thing certain in life

is Uncertainty....

……………………………………………………………………………………..

Let us hope for the world to heal soon…

See you all in the next post.

Till then,

Poem- Life is a Journey

It’s been more than 2 months since I have posted on my blog and buooyy, have I missed writing!

I hope you have missed my content as much as I have missed writing here. 😀

Life happens and sometimes one isn’t in the right frame of mind to sit down and blog or sometimes there just isn’t enough time.

I have taken multiple small such breaks from writing only to realize each time how much it means to me and how much I long to get back to it as soon as I can.

I would go on about this all day :D, but today I am just going to share a simple poem for all of you.

I have been traveling quite a bit for the last one year and it’s been so much of a learning experience that I can’t even put it into words.

Nevertheless, here’s a poem for all of you, inspired by all my travel and experiences. It does have a spiritual touch to it as well. Read & enjoy!

This Life, it’s a journey

It surely is moving at a great pace

We experience wonderful times

as well as unpleasant times

We meet some fantastic co-passengers

as well as some horrendous ones

on this excursion of life….

Some stay with us till the end of our journey

Some simply drift apart

and alight to tread a different path…

Throughout it all,

Life teaches us to be a witness

to all that’s happening to us

to all that’s bothering us

Melancholy comes when we forget

that our soujourn is going to end

We all are going to alight somewhere, someplace

from this journey of life….

Where are we going, you ponder?

We are on a expedition towards the unknown

towards the infinite truth

that permeates the universe

Journey towards the unseen

Journey towards the inevitable

Journey towards the unfathomable

Our journeys surely have different paths,

But they do merge into the arms of the Divine

Who walks our paths and holds our hands

Who gives strength during tough times

and gifts us with happy times

helping us traverse this voyage of life….

I hope you all are having an amazing time enjoying this journey of your life and if you aren’t, do take a moment to appreciate your life and of course keep reading my blog!

Catch you all soon on the next post,

Till then,

Humanity vs Brutality: The Battle.

Hello everyone!!So, it’s been quite a while and I’m back to blogging after long! I’ve made a mental note now to be more frequent with my posts here.

Sharing with all of you a poem on humanity and it’s battle with brutality.

……..

“When people fight over petty issues

Humanity cries

When people support the wrong

Humanity is astonished

When there are wars

where people kill

in the name of religion

when they masscare the other

without a care

Brutality is filled with smugness of it’s victory

While in the corner, Humanity bleeds…
When innocent children are harmed

when young girls are maimed

when injustice is done

Brutality gloats in glory

and slowly strangles

Humanity with it’s bare hands..

When the cloud of brutality

overtakes the morals and ethics of people

when there are hidden agendas

and selfsh motives

behind harming others

through words or actions

Humanity struggles to breath

she struggles to survive..

she struggles to break free

and wants a chance to live again..

Whilst Humanity is dying a slow death,

in her battle with brutality and cruelty..

don’t you want to know,

what could keep her alive and thriving?

what could keep her happy and carefree?

‘You’ my friend can keep her breathing..

you can help her survive through your gentleness

Through willingness to listen

with an open mind

through accepting people

irrespective of their caste, culture or creed

through speaking up when it’s due

and standing up for what’s right

Just a small gesture

a small act of kindness

a tiny bit of help

makes Humanity shine in all gloriousness

Humanity thrives on justice

She’ll flourish on forgiveness

and glow when there’s compassion..

Humanity, the essence.. binding us all

without which we will all fall

It’s upto us to make Humanity live

and help her defeat brutality with all might

by standing by what’s right..

Only we can aid her in keeping her spirit

Because no matter where we are

and what we do

we simply are

HUMAN… ”

 

So there you go. Hope you all liked this one. and see you all soonest with a new blog post.

Till then

Dream. Imagine. Be Crazy. Be You.

Au revoir.

 

 

Rising like the Phoenix..

As we are towards the end of this year, let us take a moment to review how the year was. I guess everyone has had his or her own experiences of good and bad during the year. Personally for me, it was a tough year, where I went through many changes, ups and downs, highs and lows, many changes and many harsh realities to face. I moved back from Mumbai to Pune. Had some changes related to my career, faced lows in my personal life like mourning the loss of my grandfather, facing criticism from people when it was not my fault, being judged for what I do and where I come from, etc etc. I ended up feeling low for quite sometime.

But as I look back, I just see how far I have come. I see how this year has changed me for the good, for the better and made me more resilient, more practical, more proactive and more accepting of people and situations. I see how going through the things I went through, has made me more positive, more compassionate and more careful of how I react to situations. I see how wise and thoughtful this year has made me and I feel thankful. As I write this, I have a smile on my face. As I write this, I am reminded of the Phoenix.
If you are a Harry Potter Fan like me and remember Fawkes the Phoenix bird from the book (or the movies) or if you just believe in or love the bird Phoenix, then you know what I am talking about. For those who don’t know the Phoenix is a mythologically magical creature, originating from ancient Greece, who rises from the ashes and get’s reborn once he is burnt. It has many references in many books, poems and literature.
So here’s a poem from me, for all of you.
RISING LIKE THE PHOENIX..
The fire which burns the Phoenix
is hot, scalding and terrifying
yet the phoenix faces it’s fate

burning in flames

with courage and bravery
It goes through the painful transformation
The ashes from the fire scatter all around
and just when you think the Phoenix has given up
just when you think it is no more
It peeks and looks up at you
alive and thriving..

 

That Phoenix
Get’s up in resolve
and Rises
It’s new birth has just begun..
It spreads it’s glorious wings to fly
It soars high and above
Shining in it’s all glory
 beaming in it’s beauty
and soaking all happiness
It flies up and above
never to look back again…
So rise just like the Phoenix,
From the ashes of pain
the ashes of guilt
the ashes of blame
and the
ashes of hurt
Rise like the Phoenix
from the ashes of the past
from the ashes of yesterday
from the ashes of sorrow
and the worries of tomorrow
For every end
marks a new beginning
for every night
is followed by dawn
Rise and spread your wings
of joy and happiness
of positivity and courage
of ambition and action
Soar high into the sky
of your hopes and dreams
of your desires and wishes
and never look back again
For inside you
lies the Phoenix
who can transform itself
Always and forever…
Thank You.
Hope you all enjoyed reading this post. Do enjoy the last few days of this year and soar into the new year like a just reborn Phoenix bird full of joy and happiness. Catch you all soon.
Till then
Dream. Imagine. Be Crazy. Be You.
Au Revoir.

Change…

Most of us go through all sorts of changes through our lives. Small or huge, good or bad, we all go through them, don’t we??Here is a poem on change for all of you ☺

Change

It can render you helpless sometimes

It can make you feel out of place

awkard and astonished

unclear and unfinished

Change…

It can make you think

It can shake you to the core

It can leave you in tears

of either joy or sorrow

and make you wonder

what will it bring tomorrow

Change 

well it can either bring happiness

or sadness

it can either be disturbing

or exciting..

Change……

Whatever it makes you feel

It will always teach you

and make you grow

Oh Change

It can make you move out of your comfort zone

make you realise your potential

and the numerous possibilites

that life offers

It can help you expand your horizons

and see life

from a broader perspective

It can make you soar

and make you take a leap

towards your growth

Oh well Change

Change is challenging

Change is tough

Change can be hard to accept

but

Change is intoxicating

Change is addictive

Change is inspiring

Change is thrilling

The power of Change 

cannot be denied

because

afterall

Change is

Inevitable
