Poem

Sometimes I fear
Like that baby bird,
Who fears of flipping her wings,
Sometimes I feel
Like that bird,
Who wants to fly
But is caged,
And sometimes I want to be-
Like that bird
Who flies higher and higher,
Whose goal is set,
And who knows where she is meant to go...

He and she.

He - Remember me. Miss me. Love me.
She - Who are you?
He - What you think me to be for you? That is what I am...
She - Wow. Someone is playing with words.
He - You taught me.

Poem

The smell of shiuli flowers is refreshing
The beats of dhak once again is appealing
Life has  changed
And another year has passed
In the blink of an eye;
The journey from one festive season to the other-
Has been remarkable,
A story had ended,
Another new story for the lifetime has been written;
I had unveiled many faces,
I had made new lifelong relationships,
I had experienced another year
Of loss and love...
I had learnt many things
And I will keep learning
Till the next festive season...

Poem

How difficult the path had been
Yet you chose to walk
By my side,
Like the torch
In the darkness
Making me believe
That true love exists
Even in the world of betrayals....

Snippet

He- 'You take time to understand things.'
She - 'Yes. I am a tube light.'
He - 'Be with me. You will start getting things early.'
She- 'I am with you and not with your neighbour.'
He - 'But if you leave me. Who knows?'
She - 'Yes. Good question. You will get a Nobel Prize for that.'
He- 'Wow. Nobel Prize. It seems you will help me fulfill that.'
She - 'I won't. It seems you want Nobel Prize.'
He - 'I want a Nobel Prize for discovering you.'

One bite.

'I am hungry. I need to munch on now.' She said.
'Okay.' He stopped his bike once he spotted a parking lot.
'Let's go there.' She pointed.
'One bite.' He read.
A roadside food junction caught glimpse of their eyes. They climbed the stairs and entered a small cafe.
He ordered two double cheese burger and two cokes.
She was looking around the cafe. Dimly lit, walls painted, photo frames hanged and words encrypted. She began reading the lines and suddenly shifted her eyes towards him and suppressed her laugh.
'What?' He asked. His eyebrows frowned.
'Sir, your order is ready.'
He stood up and within a minute came back with the food.
At the sight of the burger she burst out.
He was puzzled and could not read what was going on her mind.
'I want to be inside you.' She chuckled.
He looked at her, confused.
She took the burger and continued eating, giving him a sensuous look all the while.
He ignored her look. He ate his burger, without looking at her even once.
She enjoyed playing with his mind.
They finished their burger and coke in silence.
As they were about to leave, she said, 'Thank God, I have you. I was so hungry.'
He turned towards her. As he was about to tell her something, he read the tagline.
'One bite. I want to be inside you.'
And this time they burst out laughing together.
