Soul Thirst

fingers strumming an instrument wield power of a sacrament soul-stirring   words jumping out of keyboards influence mindsets of hordes soul-changing   colors bleed on blank canvasses in shapes that speak to masses soul flowers   flavour, fragrance, taste at the core whets all appetites for more food for soul   art works to create … Continue reading Soul Thirst

पहचान

hecblogger's avatarPlaying with words

प्यास से होते हो व्याकुल
तब तो नहीं पूछते हो

कि जल कहाँ से आया।

रोटी का कौर तोड़ते वक़्त
क्या कभी पूछा है

कि अन्न किसने उगाया।

तुम्हारे लिए सरहद पर
हँसते हुए गोली खाने को

मज़हब कभी न आड़े आया।

तो फिर

किस हक़ से पूछते हो तुम

रंग क्या है अपराध करने वाले का
मज़हब क्या है पड़ोस में रहने वाले का
धर्म क्या है भोजन के निवाले का
ओहदा क्या है प्रेम में मतवाले का

आओ

ऐसे एक नए युग का निर्माण करें
जहाँ इंसान होना ही उसकी पहचान हो

Worrying too much

I wondered, or rather worried aloud why the train stopped between stations. It was a bomb scare. All rail movement on the tracks was brought to a halt till a detection squad arrived. The sniffer dog ran towards the suitcase, as if eager to meet a long-lost friend. He sniffed and sniffed, and moved all … Continue reading Worrying too much

Reena’s Exploration Challenge – Week 47

A beautiful take on being human ….

One of the lessons in life I have learned is to never assume to have knowledge of the limit of how human we are.

Around us, we are constantly reminded of man’s inherent evil towards each other, and at the same time, we are urged to take notice of man’s desire to help one another when disaster occurs.

We watch the news daily to the bewildering amount of destruction we bring to one another all in the name of some remote political cause or religious driven act that either way leaves us speechless.

In recent times we have been captivated by the bravery and ingenuity of people around the world coming together to assist people in need.

The story of the Thailand soccer team and the extraordinary actions of their rescuers leaves me in awe even after reading the story of so many brave acts.

In the weeks since this…

Indifferent oceans

I wonder why the crowd is moving slow, as I alight from the bridge on a metro station on a rainy day. Then, I see a boy putting up a performance right on the left side of the stairs to attract attention. He has to earn a living by begging. A few steps down on … Continue reading Indifferent oceans

Reena’s Exploration Challenge – Week 47

Welcome to Week 47! Writers love exploring inner worlds, which is but their unique reflection on the outer world. I am sure sanyasis living alone in forests or hilltops respond to the elements of nature around them. A solitary, unconnected existence appears to be impossible. And if we are just blocks of a structure, or … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge – Week 47
