Things wrapped inside
don't know what to say
way looks empty ahead
but the path calls me away.

Something lost
Something misplace
Losing the touch and the essence.

I pray for guidance
I pray for light
I pray to you my Lord
and lean on You for Your support...

Good Morning..

" Rise and Shine,
NOW- here comes a new day,
as i work towards my dream-
I see a better today- a better tomorrow
Thus making it a blissful Yesterday!! "
-- Pooja A. Shrivastava

THE SUN AND THE SON….

The Sun spoke to me today..

He asked me to wake up

And look at the World

With my Eyes wide open.

I saw the World

Full of Love, at peace

I wondered out loud –

“How can this be?

Aren’t we all selfish beings -?

Not bothered about anyone but ‘Me’?”

The Sun smiled at my query,

Looked at me like a father who knows his child is mistaken.

He said-

“Why always see

The shallow things and

Not explore the matter deep within.

You and all my children

Have the Deep Well of Empathy:

Why not employ it and bring out the best in each.

Now I see the world again,

It’s noisy and busy

But it is satisfying and serene

The spirit of kindness can be sited deep within.

"And the dream became a Reality..
yet its so sureal,i know i'm awake,
my eyes are open,
Still its so great n perfect to be believed..
I just wanna say -
I am happy to be!! "

TAKE A MOMENT...

Why so busy to live,
Why so tired to enjoy.
Why so mindful of the conventions.
Why so worried about the upcoming,
Why so hooked up at the past.
Why not to live in here and now.
So lets go out-
See the sun setting,
The moon rising.

Lets feel the cool breeze on our face.
Lets take a moment to stop
And look at the lovely flower,
Or smell the freshly mown grass.
Or enjoy the fragrance of Earth after the first rain.

Lets take a moment to see
the kids playing, a mother fussing,
babies laughing
friends smiling,
birds singing, animals dancing,
Flowers blossoming.

Lets take a moment to admire the life around us;
And consider ourselves fortunate to be a part of this beautiful magical world…

FOR MY DEAREST BUI !!

“For my Dearest Bui.."

You hear my unsaid words,
And you see through my pretences;
You bring me out of my shell
and ask me to let it all out-
so that I can be me.

You never force, you never forbid,
but always guide me through the right way-
standing constantly
by my side.
Your love is strengthening,
Your smile is encouraging.
Your hugs are warm
And your presence Divine.

I thank Lord Almighty
for you,
because;
You understand me
And you let me be me…

The Feeling of You...

“The Feeling of You...” – Pooja A Shrivastava -
I feel you around me, near me.
I remember your touch on my skin
It still makes me miss a beat.
I remember your smell around me,
It still makes me breathless.
So tell me -
Are you here? Or
Far away?
I cant get my mind straight
I feel your eyes on me,
I feel your whispers in my ears,
I feel you around me.
So tell me-
Are you here? Or
Far away?
I remember you saying good bye,
I remember the tears in our eyes,
I remember- the uncertainty,
the flaws in the future we both could see;
still we became blind and fell heads over heels
So tell me-
Are you here? Or
Far away?
I see you standing on the beach
Looking at me as you still love me,
I see me running towards you,
Hoping that I could never lose you.
But then you drift and
Go away.

And I know,
Now I could never see you again.

So I know you are not here,
You are far away..
Far away..

Far away...
