150. Impressions on the sand.


I have reasons to be sad
Reasons that are known only to this restless heart of mine
You can call them good or bad
But they would always be understood by one I call divine



The uphill struggle of mighty vision
One that my tender childhood thought to be true
Dreams that I saw as a kid
Those that within me always grew



A stream of mountain
And roof on a hilltop
Playful evenings
To which there would never be a stop



The pink fountain
Behind the garden of fragrance smell
Where flowers blossomed
Even on steams and shells



A beautiful stranger
With hairs like the darkest night
And wisdom to define and explain everything
That stood as far as we had the sight



The love in its innocent form
Rebelling the world with a sheer storm
The moonlight on a river bed
The smiles won and tears shed



A heaven right on the door of hell
Sublimely casting its mesmerizing spell
And thoughts that were rain drops
Battling against their full stops



The realities that never struck
As rose petals we continued to pluck
Jealous we left the world astray
In whispers of love and freedom of pray



************


Ho yakin na meri baaton ka
Toh mere khoon k katre ko chuna
Aakhiri boond tak usmein
Dard ki nishaani hogi



Silvaton mein waqt ki
Khwaab k who bikhre manzar
Unmein bhi kahin tuti huyi
Sapnon ki rawaani hogi



Ek raat hai ye anjaani si
Mere bhi sar par, tere bhi sar par
Kahin bhad rahi hai
Kahin ghat rahi hai

PS - There have been a lot of things happening on my end. The ones that have left me disturbed, damaged and bothered to an extent that I find myself completely changed by the tide of what recent days had offered me. I would not like to get into details of it, and somehow that has stopped me from expressing myself in every direction, blogging being one of them. If any of my old readers manage to reach this post, I expect them to leave a comment so that I know I was being heard by those I considered mine.




PPS - The last four lines, is a dedication to a diary that I found at my old home while looking up for something else. The diary that was so meaningful, so beautifully written that I cannot imagine anything documented in the same way as far as I recall. It was half a century old almost, belonging to year 1974 and beautifully jotted down in the handwriting of my father. The last four lines rest same in his one of the prose there.
