DIE ANOTHER DAY

Why do we expect to 'acomplish' so much from the 'day' ?

When only few things of real significance actually come our way..

If productivity and efficiency are THE measures of satisfaction,

Why is that we always complain about the missing happy fraction?

Listen to the day's dream...hear its story..

Often in such moments, you will find your moments of glory

Life is short ..make ‘most’ of it...the wise men say..

But live your best day TODAY..and as for the 'most' part..die ..some another day !!

Fractured Sky !

Dear 'Two Wise and One Other-wise' !

 

Crimson glimpses rarely arrive,

 ..during the ghostly glide through the mist.

Inside the delicately decorated cave,

..there is always a scary beast !

Directions of derelict alleys

..seldom allow a shimmering gaze,

but the twilight oozes a drop of hope

..then melted mirrors hold their haze !

The lyrical spine of the ancient structure

beholding the mesmerized dome,

Constricted..contradicted and almost convicted..

Sometimes..the angel returns his home.

Thousand pieces and million reflections..

.. ranging from the smile to sigh !

But few dew drops cushioned in the greeting palms,

they twirl around to reach..a different high !!

Glittering ghosts of forever flickering prescriptions

can never put the spark in an eager eye..

and that’s why ..my friend.. that’s why ..YOU are the shining star

… in my... fantastically fractured sky.. !!
