❤My First Flight❤

The day was Pleasant and bright,
I was going to have my first flight.
With some courage, In the sunshine.
I paddled my bicycle for the first time

My heart was beating very fast,
I was doing better as compared to my past.
All my focus was on the way,
And It seemed to be one of the best days.

My Father was clapping and appreciating me,
Suddenly, I fall down and injured my knee.
After I was appreciated, I paddled fast,
Because I got distracted and my confidence became vast.

-

there are some days,
heart desires to break free
of notions laid in stone,
and on such days,
one needs to gather all courage,
go to the cliff,
readying yourself,
to take a leap of faith,
because that's how
the first flight begins

-

First Flight
I was a fledgling, felt secured in your lap.
Was not so bold; an introvert perhaps.

I lived in your shadows, feared from the hustle of the world
Resisting to go, your hands tightly I held.
And that insecurity forming a trail, Dropped down my eyes.
You wiped it both inside and outside.

Stepping in a new world, far from you.
Yes , I know u were worried too.
Seeing you gazing with confidence in me, made up my mind.
Flapping clumsily, hoping a new world to find,
In the sky blue and the sunshine bright,
Away from you i took my first flight.

-

Can I touch the cloud?
and speak my heart aloud
Can I fly like the fireflies?
leaving all the ties
Can I be large as the blue?
Learning from all of you
If I touch the cloud?
shall I be allowed?

Once In A Bright Morning,
When The Sun Rose A Height.
N' The Flowers Blushed For The Spring,
Putting Back All The Laziness Of The Last Night.

The Soul Of A Little Bird,
Looked Up The Sky, Into The Blue Heaven.
To The Few Birds Flying In A Group, Roaming Like a Sheep herd,
And Suddenly It Found All It's Attention Stolen.

Swallowing The Deep Urge Of Her First Flight,
She Puts Forward Her Two Steps In The Hopes Of Desire.
Holding The Warm Long Breathe Tight,
She Collects All The Strength For Such A Dreamful Attire.

Pushing The Ground Down, She Tried To Flutter,
Her Little Wings That Were Not Yet Mature.
It Raised A Bit Singing - O' Peter,O' Peter,
But Suddenly She Fell Down On The Floor.

Remembering The Saying, 'Trying Is Growing',
She Kept Trying from The Dawn Till The Dusk.
N' Finally In The Eve, She Got Her First Flight,
By The Greenery, By The Clouds.
In The Orange Glare Of The Setting Sun.

After our first fight there was
nothing that could hold my tear
It's the pain that was killing me
inside as if my death was near
You came, we talked and I got you
back who can tolerate me & hear
And each worst feeling was gone with
two of us & a chilled cup of beer!

-

Pankh banke mere sapno
Ko parwaz diya tune,
Kabhi khud ke sapno ko bhi toh tu jee le..

It was one fine night
Butterflies giggled in
Yet some sort of fear troubled in
Felt for will miss my comfort zone
So many questions ran inside me
Some were answered and some were not
Bid a goodbye to my parents with tears of joy
Waited for a while with nervousness and happiness occupied me fully
Comforted with self advice and made myself bold enough
But never missed to click a selfieees as always
Passed the time with the people aside me by discussing about some good new stuffs after done with all the formalities
I was so excited and shared through text messages with my best buddy about the feeling and excitement
Yeah at last the moment neared
Entered into the way through the stairs with warm welcomings
Seated in the place which was allotted for me
Checked everything around me about everything and relaxed myself
And the right time arrived then slowly i was raised up and started flying happily
This is what about how my very first lonely flight travel experience was!!

अंधेरा भी कभी-कभी डराता नहीं ,,,
उस पल यूँ लगा
ज्यूँ कर किसी परिंदे के पर उधार मिल गए..

छोटी सी उड़ान, आसमाँ में कुछ लम्हें,
मिली है ख्वाबों को नयी दिशा, न देना इन्हें तू थमने।

बादलों के बीच जगमगाता आफ़ताब का सुनहरा नूर
है ये उम्मीदों की नयी सुबह, जा चुकी ग़म की रात बड़ी दूर।

जगा ले तू अपने सोए "कौशल", है सही ये वक़्त
बादलों के पास है तू, जता ले खुदा से अपनी उल्फ़त।
