And I Love Doing That!!!

-

The world of words…
Each with one-two or even more meanings…
Making a sense, or non-sense…giving a power to feelings…

You connect them and give them a shape…
You make your own choice and develop a combination…
A poem, a talk…or may be just a phrase…
You hold the power of creation…

When you place a word just beside the other…
They pose like long lost friends standing all-together…

The relation they develop, the strength that you provide…
Words show gratitude and express all you tend to hide…

I remember the day I was introduced to their influence…
My father made me learn all the rules of substance…

He said-
“Join them together and pen down your thoughts…
And one day you will learn - how to play with words…

Not only you are playing with words, but i think you have mastered this art. You r now in a position to change the rules of this game too....so, try changing it...n i m sure...the thoughts, or the phrases, that will come out of it, will get more beautified.

The Colour of Imagination!

-
The white canvas stands opposite me… As I hold the board of various bright colours… Still deciding on the first stroke…!
White can adapt any colour…any combination… Yet I fail to make a selection…!
This makes me wonder… Do I prefer it as it is…Serene, pure and clear…?
“What if I paint you red…?” I ask the canvas. The colour symbolizing two opposite extremes...of love and hatred…! “No, I have never been on the edges, I keep a balance…,” you rightly said!
“What if I paint you blue…?” I ask again. The colour of tranquility, royalty and freedom…! You are not convinced, “The uproar inside me also needs a presentation!”
“What about pink...?” I inquire. The colour of innocence, beauty and optimism…! You smile and say, “You want me to own the trait of feminism?”…
“Ok then the colour green…?” I say. The colour of nature, life, self respect and grace…! “But it holds a thin line of jealousy as well...,” you state.
Finally you question- “Why do you want to limit my horizon… A colour would only restrict my imagination…

Acceptance

This November as I peep out of my window, searching for the signs of Winter,
the city smiles at my imprudence...

It throws some rays of burning sun, The salted wind and sandy cram
Introducing itself to me all over again,
Repeating its name, repeating its name

“I have given you the power to earn, Strengthened your feet to stand, to run
I have given you the shelter, the haven,
The today and tomorrow of success and fun’

I have accepted you with open arm, Have showered on you all my charm.
Yet you feel detached – disconnected,
It makes me sad, I feel offended.”

This November as I peep out of my window, searching for the signs of Winter, the city puts me under several allegations.

“Accept me” it pleads, but I am lost in my own reflections. “You are right’ I begin, “but even I am not wrong.
The impression of something on me is rather more strong.

I am longing for my town, my native destination
I miss its warmth, it love, its affection. You have given me the power to earn
But it has taught me my firs…

प्रेम ही है या प्रेम सा कुछ और है ये?

-
तुम उस तूफान से बड़े हो,
उस दरिया से भी गहरे हो।
सौ साल पुराने उस बरगद के पेड़ से भी विशाल,
एक-एक डाल विकराल।

सुना था प्रेम प्रवीण होता है,
मधुर, कोमल, सुंदर, शालीन होता है।
फिर मेरा वाला इतना कठोर कैसे,
प्रेम ही है या प्रेम सा कुछ और है ये?

यहां ना चाँद से मेरी बराबरी की जाती है,
ना तारे तोड़ लाने की बात कही जाती है।
गीतों और कविताओं में कहां संवाद होते हैं।
कहां पलकों के उठने-गिरने पर लोग बर्बाद होते हैं।

यहां वही समावेश है जो संभव है।
चल पडूँ मैं कल्पनाओं की ओर कैसे?
प्रेम ही है या प्रेम सा कुछ और है ये?

दूर है तो दर्द है, पास है तो प्यास है।
हाँ, सभी धागों में ये धागा थोड़ा खास है,
लेकिन ये आभास है,
कि धूप की कोमल किरण नहीं, ये प्रचंड प्रकाश है।

यहां वहीं छाव है जहां ताप है।
इस जलन में जी सकूंगी जीवन कैसे?
प्रेम ही है या प्रेम सा कुछ और है ये?

स्वीकार अगर ना भी करूं इस परिवेश को,
भेज दूँ प्रेमी को संबंध-विच्छेद संदेश तो,
तो भी क्या मन विकल ना होगा,
ये विषम बोझ बोझल ना होगा।

यहां वहीं सुख है जहां संताप है।
समझूँ तो जोड़ूंगी कुछ और पंक्तियाँ फिर से।
कि प्रेम ही है या प्रेम सा कुछ और है …
