Reena’s Exploration Challenge # 83: Prompt: Picture and Perspective

Your or Mine

Whose perspective is right

I see the shadows upright

You praise the magic of the light

I see them hanging down from ceiling

For you they give a different feeling

Whose is a better sight

Whose perspective is right

Your or Mine

I watch the play and come back home

You link it to life’s every zone

I praise the gown the lady wore

You thought a skirt would have suited more

Comparing gives a tough fight

Whose perspective is right

Your or Mine

Thinking deep, I finally find

What appears six to you

For me can well be nine

Perspectives are both right

Be it your, be it mine !!!

Antique shop

The mirror changed my life. As night fell, and the lights were turned off, I heard voices floating through the room. I would have brushed it off as an overactive imagination, till I heard a distinct sound of thumping, and asking to be let out. I was careful enough to wake up my partner first … Continue reading Antique shop

Transparent

He yapped incessantly about the new house he bought, expensive gifts he surprised his wife with, and the freshly engineered net-worth statement he submitted to the bank for a business loan. I did not look impressed. Actually, I tried my best to, but my disapproval of his inefficiency, his corrupt and womanizing ways showed through. … Continue reading Transparent

Perspectives …..

By Sadje

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

Welcome again, and always to this space, which has become sacred to me! You may not see it in the same manner. And why should you? Each of us has our own unique perspective on the world and its interesting contents.

PROMPT

Picture

Perspectives

Can you see what I see

I can see a glass half full, while it’s half empty for you

I see the world through rose colored glasses

While its gray and black in your eyes

Hanging upside down on strings of a puppeteer

I can see things from a totally different perspective

What is falling in your eyes, is rising to the sky in mine

What is out of balance and ungainly from your point of view

Is in perfect harmony and graceful from my angle

How interesting it would be if you could see my side

And I could visualize your stand point

But then…

मेरे अगाध प्रेम को तुमने
हमेशा बंधन ही माना
अपना अपना नज़रिया है।१।

पत्थर ही फेंका किये तुम
कभी डूब कर देखते
कितना गहरा दरिया है ।२।

सर्दी में रूह को सुकूं दे
जून की तपती दोपहर में
तू बेचैनी का ज़रिया है ।३।

दिखती है रौशनी तुम्हें
क्या जानो किस के लिए
पल पल जलता दिया है ।४।

लगता है लतीफा तुम्हें
अमित इस मज़ाक को
मैनें खुद ही जिया है ।५।

It’s a choice

“Gender roles are assigned based on biology. A man cannot give birth.” “Sure! But he can raise a child.” “Why did the caveman not do it? There must have been a reason.” “They had no feeding bottles and breast pumps. We live in a different age.” “Is that your condition for marriage?” “Marriage is a … Continue reading It’s a choice
