It is the surface emerging out,No depth for an intellect, stout,The words fading have no right,To create cogent bytes.How shallow is the region stirred!How little is the outlet turned!Nothing wakens the indolent brain,Confining it to a limited frame.Is it a meaningful lectureOr a vain conjecture?
( Understanding is essential for learning. If it is absent, learning is meaningless)
You pound my brain with your sound,Fluctuating tone of rise and fall,Conveys that you need to recall,Words, meaningless, unknown,Shrivelled in senses, unkindPour out of your fermented mind,What a good lecture it would have beenIf your knowledge had a stream? You trained your brain to memorise notes,Laid in the barren desert of no hope,Infertile is your mind,Your logic is parched and blind,You, a...
The professor echoes the atmosphere,Washing away the false notions,Students erupt into peals of laughter,Ringing with timbrel, echoing the atmosphere,It is our dear professor,Unwinding threads of thought,Turning the receptive minds,Into meaningful critical laughter,His lectures serenade us,To view the world with seismic laughter ( A lively talk by the professor evokes seismic laughter, an example...
Foaming waters of the sea,Engulfs my dormant mind,I ride into distant experience,Of sea breeze behind me.Pleasant feel of the wind,Glowing sunset,Party seated on a lawn,Cool friendly feel of speech,People moving around in groups,Golden sun turned into colours,Colourful beams reflected on waters,The wavelets danced merrily,The sky, calm with theGurgling water as its bed,Faded into the dark,Lighted...
Freshness of nature is beauty,Beauty of nature is design,Movement of life is beauty,Beauty of truth is dignity,Calmness of mind is beauty.The charming physical beautyOf nature is its treaty,With truth and grace,Dressed and ornamentedIn silver and gold.A vision of brightnessBlending an ocean of colours,Sound, life and figures,A fastidious festival of beauty.
Glittering drops of rain,Fall on the parched earth,Shaken up with thirst,Nourishing the earthy bowel,Food for beings spring,Sight of green is an offering,Stretching towards eternity. Eager, wealthy and healthy grassIs bestowed to lie on,Cool fresh and serene.Magnanimous green leaves,Bend to slip down drops,Glittering as though in a dream,The overwhelming greenery,Rules dormant indolent...
You are monumental but still,Still in midst of sound,Still in midst of light,A torturing stillness!Injecting the serene mind,Into a serene stillness,The massive splendour of your sight,The brave confidence of your might,Speaks of the still beauty in you,You are silent too. Remember, massive as you are,Gorgeous too!Placed in a placid inertia,Which injects in you stability,Although not of mind but...
I studied for my S.S.C. exam with renewed vigour. Even when the house was in a cluttered state, I didn’t bother to pay attention to the house. I either stamped or kicked the things, which came in my way knowingly, as I read for the exam pacing the room and the balcony. Hari went to school but he did not study. He loafed about in his spare time and watching...
Siddharthnagar had dense vegetation on both sides of the lanes. There were wadis or bungalow type houses. Rich green vegetation and fresh air were enriching. Traffic was less. I would watch the red gulmohor trees as I plodded to school. On the right hand...
Tradition was a load which gave lots of temper tantrums to parents. My mother was grossly unhappy since she had daughters. How to get her daughters married was a problem. She had a feeling that she was laboring for a lost cause. She would say, “After all, you girls will have to leave the house one day. You are damned because you are girls.” She would beat my younger sisters. ...
