Looking forward
What a day have you chosen to bring back memories of those winter afternoons in a cosy corner! Today, I watch myriad elements of my comfort zone being wrapped up in boxes, and loaded on a truck. It will take almost a week to reach Mumbai, and I’m a floater in transition for sometime. I … Continue reading Looking forward

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #84 – The Drama Workshop.
The Drama Workshop by Michael

It was a new day, and the drama workshop was about to begin. The participants were new to each other, and the leader knew he needed to settle their nerves, he knew many were experienced drama practitioners, and some were new to the game.
They were all apprehensive, he could tell by the way they all hugged the wall, standing arms folded, showing all the traits of the uncertain.

There is no restriction on the length or format of the piece. It can be a poem, story, anecdote, memory, picture, diary, thoughts, essay — as long as it reflects your innermost thoughts on the subject. Write a long post, or be succinct in a short one.

सुलह कौन करे
English translation in Comments section ….
है ग़ुरूर तेरा
तो मेरी भी अना
हम दोनों में सुलह कौन करे ।१।
क़त्ल करके मेरा
बन बैठे हो मुंसिफ
अब तुमसे ज़िरह कौन करे ।२।
आए हो तुम मिलने
जब मुझसे सपनो में
इस रात की सुबह कौन करे।३।
उठ चुकी है महफ़िल
सुन के आशार मेरे
तन्हाई में वाह वाह कौन करे।४।
तूने ठुकराया अमित
इस क़यामत के बाद
दुनिया की परवाह कौन करे।५।
