Strange times!
World as usual making false promises
Comedian becoming a war hero
Lives are so free and fragile
One is not able to win over a zero!

Strange times!
Mask over masks
Fields filled with fake grass
Trees on the trucks
Plastic roses in a vase!

Strange times!
Dogs getting nails done
Cats scaring dogs
A social like for a like
Supermarkets selling frogs!

Strange times, indeed!
Online invading on-life
Past encroaching the here and now
Future guiding the head chatters
One pretends to survive somehow!

Strange times!

Sometimes I think

I am who I am



Sometimes I feel just the opposite (reverse) and ask

Am I who am I ?

To be parents is like to be the two hands of a scissor! We work together on a pivot, the purpose, but don’t hit or constrain ourselves from hitting each other while grooming the plant, the child!

Humiliation is one of the best teachers for those who take it in high spirit and move on quietly but steadily.

The un-whisper-able!
And It left
A dark patch of lull.

कब टूटोगी?
इतनी कि
टूट के भी बिखर ना पाओ।

Can someone’s intentions or actions define exactly the person without knowing the total result? Can clouds (white with blue sky OR dark ready to flood with the same blue sky) be tagged as good or bad without knowing the true nature of the sky they are hiding behind?

Shanker Bhatt

-

To mind my own business
And
Let them mind theirs!

यमराज के दिन भी ओवरलोड हो गए
कुकर्मों के जाल में किसके
मासूम कितने खो गए।
