A Trail towards Eternity...

starting while the city was asleep,

not far beyond the concrete jungle bright;

headed towards, we all traveling by a jeep,

preserved was a divine sanctity so quiet..

scrubbing through each stone & pebble,

a dry stream permitting us to climb up through;

crabs making way for us to settle,

sun, breeze, rains & the inspiring crew..

a perfect blend of humility & expertise,

made us together rise;

weaving through the soil, rocks & trail,

Let’s Be Positive !

Being Positive – Is a dream for Many,
Quite more than a Penny;
Can never be attained by – drowning in a glass of Feni,
Neither can be borrowed from a close friend Any…

It is a Way of Life,
With or without having a Gf or Wife;
Which makes us see through the glasses Tainted,
Enables us to see even a cracked wall – as delicately Painted…

It is like an elevated Line of Metro,
Railing above the traffic & gazing Retro;
Untouched by the rushing – hawking Street,
Making you reach on time – for that very special Treat…

It is like a glimpse of Light,
When nothing is seen On-site;
Which makes you avoid the wrong from Right,
Which brushes off the dark – smudging each patch as White…

It is like that grain of Wheat,
Which you crush & Beat;
After it reaches you surviving the scorching Heat,
Still nourishes you within each bite you Eat…

Let’s recognize the value of thoughts so Wise,
Let’s refine it off the scatter & Flies;
Let’s think about the sun – hiding behind the blanket of Cloud,
Let’s hear our conscience – while we stand among the people so Loud…

The Way we Think,
Determines whether we Float or Sink;
The Way we See,
Determines What will we Be !

We Should !
We Need To !
We Will !
We Want To – Change ! – Let’s Be Positive !

Bleeding Truth

13th March was my birthday,
Had to choose a different way;
Decided to keep all priorities at bay,
& reach uphill Jeevdani Temple before yawns the morning ray…

Jumped off the bed at three,
Leaving alone my lazy routines free;
Let my sleepy eyes step out the door,
Reached the destination sharp at four…

Seeing the huge gates shut,
Was quite astonished but;
Looking at people waiting – sleeping at the door,
Again gazing at the majestic closed door;
Stepped to a man in blue,
Asking if he had any clue;
As to when will the gates unlock?
It was already four O’clock…

“Now” he replied,
My eyes glorified;
The screeching sound of the opening gate,
Ready to climb up ending up the wait…

Stepping up my foot ahead,
Not alone was I, sought of a group I led;
Dogs barking with joy,
Started playing without a toy…

Carrying a pumping heart,
Holding myself from falling apart;
Reaching up the divine,
Waiting at the shrine;
Wrapping up the curtain,
Relieving the uncertain;
Goddess Jeevdani lends us a sight,
Before flows down the gushing sunlight…

Instruments started to play,
As if the clouds were to dance;
Chants around the world,
Dipped in honey was every stance…

Praising loud the almighty,
A group of boys dragged along a goat;
Deafening cheer surrounded the hall room,
A sight difficult for me to note…

They came tearing away the crowd through,
Were given a passage even though the audience grew;
Masked murderers they seemed to be,
Greetings & Respect they got was surprising to see…

The goat with the group went to take blessings ahead,
My eyes were expecting a stain splash off bleeding red;
But the sight was not sought at the very site,
When I asked about it to a man in white;
The sacrifice was to be made down the hill,
Blank was I to hear it and stood still…

Are we so not a Man,
To believe in what we Can;
By killing others to Gain,
Being untouched by the Pain…

It’s time we Realize,
To learn to Sacrifice;
Not someone else’s blood will colour our Life,
We need to put ourselves under the so called “Knife”…

Are we ready to Bleed?
