"Turn around, and your expression will tell me the story." "Promise you won't scream...." the voice sounds different. Turn around she does, and I don't scream. I'm mesmerised into silence by her beauty. I know I'll key in my credit card number next, and buy what I can't afford. The manner in which witches are … Continue reading The Witches Garden
I found you somewhere there, in those toys for garage sale .... (maybe your bloated ego) Really? You cared enough to find me? Only you could have chucked out that red doll - so precious to my deprived childhood, and hoped to see me amongst buyers.

किस याद ने रखा है तुझे शाद अब तक

She is proud of his success, and the fact that he flies around the world. He may find his father some … Continue reading Different Destinations
It’s a long and arduous journey. I’m not sure if I’ll make it. If you do, will you turn and look at the road you traversed? Yes. If you do, will you regret or celebrate it? It depends on what happens enroute. What do you thing will make it worth celebrating? Overcoming all obstacles on … Continue reading Long Roads

A new rhythm is born.
