A beautiful era, an integral part

I was looking through some files on my old laptop when I came across this piece.. its actually a poem written in April last yr when we were at the verge of leaving collg ( infact as most people know, I have not been into poem writing much, but I dont know what was going through my mind when I penned this one) It is not very good as a literary piece, but happens to be something really special to my heart.

And seeing that its nearly 1 year since this was written, I decided to post this to my blog. A lot of things have changed in the past 1 year since we left Allahabad, and I just soo much wish those days can come back.....

 I also wish I could tag all my gang here, but blogger apparently doesnt give that option yet as fb does :)

Here it goes...



" Through frailties, through life’s thick n thin
You all stayed by my side as an angel akin.

When every miniscule of joy got quadrupled when together we laughed,
When every shred of tear ebbed with your reassuring words apt .

The days we spent teasing and talking, 
not knowing when d clock ticked fast
When with bated breaths,
we waited to share some of our old foolish knacks.

Joys, gloom, anger or fury.. every emotion got shared so well.
The trust grew so sanguine that I could hardly tell.

It makes me wonder,  fathoming the strange thought again
If without you, the voyages wud have been just the same.

It sometimes aches to see the time slipping away,
How things would ensue when everyone takes his way.

But thy shall remain always in my heart,
A beautiful era , An integral part "

very correctly said an era... :) will remain in our hearts ... we might forget the faces one day .... but how cld we forget the togetherness of dose chirping voices ...
Someone from ald came to meet me and said in train they met some girl who did Btech and passed out with us ... and the person said she doesnt knw me ... I was amazed but i cld confidently say then she wont be from mnnit... :)
but i prayed in heart secretly i hope that would be the case........

Seriously an integral part :)
I can relate with every line of this poem. Feel lucky to have such great friends :)
Though at that time we never thought that we were making memories that will remain with us forever, we thought we were just having fun :)

PS: Senti kar dis badmaash :)

Random: Musings from Harry Potter to Diwali

There is one thing that my last post made me realize.. I had written my last post in a jiffy, not caring much about what thoughts went in or how the sentences were framed or even were they framed at all or not :P, but quite surprisingly it proved to be one of the most popular posts on the blog that invited the most number of comments :) :). So I have decided to again walk the same lane of chalking out a random post, and see if the commenters also follow suit or not :D A few days back while googling, found that its R.L.Stevenson’s birthday. I definitely owe the guy because Treasure Island happens to be one of the first novels I have read, I also remember reading a Hindi version of the same that was titled ‘Khajane Ki Khoj’.  Speaking of Hindi versions, there are times when you come across really funny translations of English to Hindi, be it the name Dum-Pishach for Dementors(Harry Potter contagion is on after all :D) or think about the uncountable instances that you cou...

Life has its own set of ups and downs. There are times when the Lady Luck shines on you with all her might and then there are days when everybody leaves you in the lurch and just walks away. Who else can vouch for this better than my own blog. There was a time when it used to see regular updates, sprawling   visits and then there is a time now when the tides have turned against the poor guy and it is lying in some obscure corner catching dust.. no updates.. no visits… sigh.. :( I am well aware that no matter how hard I try, but still it is going to be futile to fish for any excuses and muster some convincing reasons for the long hiatus in posting to this blog. But better late than never. I have finally wielded my pen (or my keyboard to be precise) and it is high time I break out of the shackles of apathy that have overtaken me of late. But settling down on a topic is again a task herculean in itself. I think it will be better if I just etch out a couple of random things around ...

The lakeside

She walked on the cold vapid soil while thoughts continued to race through her mind. The trees, the soft cool breeze and the lake: everything was just the same as it used to be 2 years back when she was here; all except for her feelings. She remembered how buoyant she was as she made her way through the sea of staring faces down the aisle, her happiness rising as she strode each step towards her groom, the sparkle in his eyes, the assuring smile on his face. Ahh, grief struck her as she thought about that day, the day of her marriage when at this very spot she had taken vows with Mike of being together and how those got broken in just two years. Though it had just been a small time but seemed ages have past since that day, as many things had happened in the span destroying their relation that she couldn’t even sense when that eternal love faded away. She failed to comprehend if those were misunderstandings, mistakes or just a wrong decision, but she knew only one thing that tomorro...
