Droplets from Heaven

Droplets from Heaven

Out of the windowpane I watch below,
The sun has stopped smiling,
The sky has lost its glow.
Moist winds strike in the face as they blow.

Tears of happiness fall from the sky, calm and slow.
Thirsty were the beasts, the trees were hollow,
But now it's lush green all over; the lakes and rivers flow.

The green velvety carpet adorns
The plains, mountains high, and valleys low.
The sky has the look of newlywed bride,
As the rainbow shines in heaven with pride.

All I can say
Is that happiness prevails all around
When the heavens sparkle and scatter
The droplets on the ground.

Moments

I wrote this poem for my college magazine but never published it .. well , I will share it with you guys, hope you like it ..

Moments

Pleasures, sorrows, tears and joy,

College life’s a package, come take it my boy.

All the time we’ve spent is soon to fade

Reality strikes, there’s self to be made;

Those conversations with friends till the strike of the dawn,

Sipping of coffee after every yawn.

Those painful submissions till wee hours of night,

Those smiles, jokes and all those stupid fights.

Buying of books with just a month to go,

Even then managing to put up a good show;

Dedication sincerity in every game,

After all it’s about college’s pride and honour,

Name and Fame.

College has helped us in more ways than one,

Tried us, tested us, catapulting us towards perfection.

Here we’ve seen the highest highs and the lowest lows,

Times running out the groping fear grows.

Have served it like a priest taking care of the shrine.

Yes, this is my college, this college is mine!

These moments can be forgotten never,

In my heart they reside, forever and ever.

Poetry

Hmmmm .. is the word which I frequently use as a filler while I am thinking or before I am about to say something and right now I was thinking as to how should I introduce what I want to post in this particular blog . So , basically the thing is that I do little poetry when I am in the mood to write and there are a few poems I have written. I will share one of them with you today and gradually over the days try to write some more and hopefully get better with time. Here it goes...

That face

That face which resides in my heart
Bright and shimmering, lovely and smart.
Those eyes which glance through my life,
Azure angelic, cut through me like a knife.
That smile that glitters in my thoughts,
Pushes me to survive all the odds.
That look which gets me blank in the mind,
She can see it, then why does she react as if she is blind.
This emotion called love, its too much pain.
However how much you feel it's all in vain.
Life's a cloth and love's a stain,
Love is a grinder, life is the grain.
I know this emotion is true; it's not a craze,
Its life, it's not just a phase.
Who'll explain to her that I am the one,
Who'll die for her, live for her, through bad times and fun.
Her eyes, her smile, that face is tough to face,
Now I am on my knees and it's a disgrace.
That face that resides in my heart,
Bright and shimmering, lovely and smart.

New Life Begins ..

Finally , time to kick the laziness which prevents me from doing anything which is useful apart from what I am required to do at college.Smack !! Thud !!

There ,I just knocked it off and shall proceed to write the blog which will state what I have been doing all these days.

Joined the new college in Pune,its a fun city . the life at college is chilled out and not as tough as I thought it would be . This is the first time I am experiencing the hostel life and trust me it is fun.The very first time I am outside on my own , away from my city but thanks to my parent who have been really liberal and given me all the freedom while I was here at baroda, I do not feel any drastic change and feel that I am living with the same ease and comfort over there as I as a person have always been independent.I am a person to whom choices are confusing but have a strong sense of what I do not want . I may be confused in what I want but in what I do not want I am very clear . Not getting into a mediocre college was one of the things I was clear about.Symbiosis , the place I study at is a known brand in the country and is recognized internationally which gives a sense of pride when asked about where are you studying ?? the feeling I never got to experience after school because the college I did my graduation from was always in the news but for the wrong reasons . Would not want to get into details of that as of now.

So this place I am studying at is on a hilltop , a very serene beautiful place to study .If you wish you can absorb the visuals for a long time and not get bored of it . although many seniors say that you shall soon get bored of seeing the mountains and the valleys and the clouds passing through the campus .I do not think that it is going to be the same case with me as I am a person who wouldn't acknowledge the beauty of this place all the time but yes , in evening when I am by myself sipping on hot tea or coffee, I do not miss a chance to appreciate it and store those moments in my memory captured by the camera I carry all the time , my Eyes.

The exposure to media is amazing which rightly justifies it being one of the best institutions , cant say the same about academics and placements but hey nothing much to complaint about too. Eventually when life provides you with salt, pepper and spices ,it is eventually you who has to go about find your eggs and prepare omelette's using your skill.Lot of opportunities coming my way over there which I do not wish to write about but I hope to make the most of them.

I do not realize how the time is flying as the first semester is about to get over soon.wow !!!

life moves at such a fast pace that tomorrow I shall be on my deathbed saying the same words !!! I have realized that when you have the things going in your favor, the time seems to move swiftly which obviously is a positive sign.There is so much I want to write about.for example the people there , the things we study , I wish I had started much earlier like my dad advised and quoted what the famous and the inspirational people who have visited the campus ,I want to write about all the parties we hold,all the pranks we do.. but well will take up each and every one individually as if I try writing everything here , it will be a never ending blog.

more later hopefully, wishing that I do write soon :)
