Super Hero

She wanted to be a hero well known,

But sadly, her superpower was still unknown.

She believed it to be her destiny,

while others took it to be her fantasy.

She tried different things making others deplored,

as she was resolved to take the road less explored.

The more she tried, less she feared to fail

Found the freedom to step out of her mental jail.

Realized to be a hero, it doesn’t take to be extra-ordinary

All she had to do was to accept being ordinary.

Knowing there is no better power in the world

than to be yourself, to be simple and bold.

Determined to bring alive her dream to reality,

She started small by spreading smile in her locality!

Minute of Love

Two souls on a journey of their own

Respect in their relationship being its cornerstone

We know not of the relation they share

Only that it is filled with love and care.

One sprints while the other walks,

Different enough to give each other cultural shocks.

Sometimes they meet on their way,

only to appear to move away.

Two strangers on the clock they intertwine,

Forever together and we call it time!

Let go

It’s strains a lot more to hold than to let go

Yet, why does one hold and not let it go

Why hold on to a belief decade ago

And get pulled behind without reason to adore

Why reason out to what one learnt

When the game is new and rules to be unturned

Why nerve out on past fear of height

When reborn as an Eagle to soar in the sky

Why get burnt in hurtful revenge

When the purity at heart cannot be drained

Why does one cry on the failures of the past

When the life goes on and path can be recast

Defy old belief and Unlearn to learn

Go fly high with new wings of wisdom

Stay pure at heart and the purpose in life

Recast the destined, Let go the outlined

Carefree I could drive if this was a straight road
But life path is long with challenging crossroads
One right turn led to the other
One wrong move caused a lot of bother
Sometimes I knew the path and took the right turns
At times followed blindly the cars in front
There were also instances of honking trucks behind
When my inadvertent hurl rubbed off others
Sometimes went astray and completely lost my way
Had no maps to guide and wild dogs chased
Closed my eyes and prayed with undying faith
Stranger guided me like a darling angel
But most difficult crossroads were
The ones that didn’t meet again
Where the path once chosen lead to an end
When I had no choice but, to choose one over the other
I couldn’t travel both and couldn’t please all
No matter sometimes won and at times lost it all
I wonder why life has several such crossroads
Why can’t it be a simple straight road?

Flames

The storm blew the candle and FLAME was born

Royals were massacred but Blue Blood gushed on

Dread was in ashes and Phoenix soared on

Spaces constricted but Hearts grew fond

Burdens Belittled as Spirits were strong

Swords were melted as Pens flared on

Red carpets were laid

As the new King took on

The FLAME molded Substance into new Life form

Long live the King carefree of storms

The Paradise is HIS as FLAME goes strong

Magic Seeds

They swirled with the breeze, and bounced over the ground

Mesmerized in music, buzzing all around

Kissed the dew on roses, tickled a leaf re-bound

Twinkled with the rising sun, and hushed out of town

Transited to new lands, tossing in joys abound

Tricked and tripped my lone land, knocking my guards down

Pulled me out from races, that had no purpose found

Immersed –I lie, gazing the sky, letting the heart pound

Identity

I had some candles and happily gave it to you..
I am happy to see you gleaming and glided in tiny candle lights..
So what if one of the candles burnt my curtain when you jumped in joyous glory..
Thank you for helping me know that my house needed fire-proofing..
Thank you for helping me know that candles that lights the house can burn it too..
Thank you for helping me know why god chooses some to be the torch bearer and some for being guided through..
Thank you for being there and not being there..
As my search for light is now within..
and can stay alight without the elements that I believed defined me and you…!

Behold..

The shrill of an infant’s cry and the mother’s smile with a tearful eye
The thrill of an eagle’s fly and a brave push that pulls her high
The transformation of a cocoon into a butterfly
The ease of breath and the mammoth form inside

Salty meadows with sweet fruits
Scorching deserts with oasis en-route

The sunshine- The shadow -The rain and lore
The Gene- The Being –The Life and chore

The Moment- the Music –The Rhythm of chords
The Bliss -The Grace-The Beauty of Lord

All is yours to hold and adore
It may not wait and can’t be stored

Live the Cheer of dawn until dusk, en-live the hope at the fall of dusk
Keep the faith in larking dark, Trust the Might in weakest hour

For even if you drop the strand, He holds you safe in the hollow of his hands
For even if you lost his sight, He never even blinked his eyes

He is there- He is aware, He is creating a Marvel – you could be unaware
Maybe another cry that brings a smile; Maybe another push that pulls you high.

I Live.

From the top of the sky

To the bottom of the sea,

I live.

To turn the down curves of your frown

To the cheered up smile,

I live.

To suck all your sorrow and the tears you shed

And to embrace you with warmth and joy,

I live.

To free you from the demons of your mind

To transcend you to the internal place of peace,

I live.

To save you from the closet of your anxiety and insecurity

To let you escape like the free breeze on the beach,

I live.

Not to survive, but to be alive!
