The Year Gone By : 2011

It is time and I write again,
again before the clocks chyme,
I take a look at the year passing by,
With a small personal rhyme..


January fused me with a new hope,
with a new friend by my side,
life seemed to be changing,
happiness could be seen riding a high tide..


February was the month of realisation,
when I encountered an unexpected trend,
when I was parted albeit only for hours,
then I realised someone was more than just a friend..


In March I did see Patiala,
saw the greenery of farms,
through only from my hostel room,
I felt the winds of change within my arms...


April was just quiet,
the 'fight' in me simply died,
I submitted to the laws of competition,
tired of it, my mind sometimes cried


May was the time to rejoice,
I was back home as the overjoyed resident,
It did make me forget April,
as a number popped up on my cell, by 'accident' ;)


In June, the temperature rose,
and  my conversations,
with the special 'someone' grew
we continued to come close..


In July I headed for my big city,
to live with my Santa and begin some work,
met some warm professionals,
as my coffers filled with a welcome perk..


August was work, work n work,
I gelled in the new environment,
celebrating my Santa Naani's birthday,
was an over joyous sentiment..


Yes, the 'someone' felt like mine now,
Come September I did admit it as I had felt it grow,
'someone' just became my Sho and told me,
to tell her something she didn't know ;) :P


October came, and so did my day,
when Sho told me what I wanted to hear d most,
my joy knew no bounds, at this gift,
it was like Life finally raising a toast :)


November reminded me,
that life can take as easily as it can give,
for it took away the one person I had grown up loving,
and it was unbelievable that without her, I have to now live..


December prepared me to leave my big city,
but not before I went for my second holiday in 22 years,
And now it is to leave itself,
I hope, with all my tears...


So without further ado I welcome the year 2012,
a year I hope will unite me with my love, my dreams and my passions,
and stop the flow of tears for a long long time,
Hope, love and prosperity filling up my rations... :)

Memoirs of my December : Part I : Delhi

This one's a non-poem post by me after a long,long time. But it had to be something special to make it to this blog, and so it is. This one's about my holidays in the last month. Here it goes... 8th Dec 2010: Everything was looking set. Exams were going to get over in two days time, and I was going to fly off to nani's place in Delhi after 5 long months at college. So i was evidently happy the evening when an sms from Spice Jet that wiped the smile clean off my face. It stated that my flight had been cancelled due to 'unforeseen circumstances' and that 'the inconvinence caused was deeply regretted' .... yeah right! After a series of calls between me and dad, it was decided that he would go and check out at the airport as to what SpiceJet was going to do about the whole situation since I had my last exam on 10th and had to prepare for it 9th Dec 2010: Dad visited the airport, SpiceJet informed him that they would be happy to adjust me in a f...

The Case of the mistaken identity

No... this is not a description of a CID episode as u might have guessed from the title. This is all about a really funny incident which i was narrating to a friend today, when the idea struck me that i should share it with you all. So here goes...  Okay, so this happened to me last summer, that is in 2009. Before jumping tothe incident itself, a little background first. My dearest chachu is a CA (Chartered Account), and i always kept hearing from him about these wonderful ICAI (Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) conferences he kept attending in Jaipur, which had awesome lunches, special performances by bollywood playback singer so on and so forth. But they always happened at times when I had exams. But last summer ICAI was celebrating 50 years of its existence in Agra at the Jaypee Hotel. Again chachu was invited to attend the same, with a free stay for two at Mansingh group of Hotels in Agra. Luckily for me, my little cousin Devashish (chachu's son) had exams at that ti...

The Year Gone By: 2010

It started, with the memories of loss of a person who i thought would never say bye. Then it went a bit further, in a pretty lousy manner it was really hard seeing my hopes of success almost die. Along came the summer, brought me back home was introduced to a 'professional' world where new people said hi. I got back to college, rains washed away my fears,my tears hope began to glisten again and i was ready to look into the sky. By the year end, things had improved quite a bit found a new friend to talk to to whom I just couldn't lie. Staring into the new year, I feel my goals are a bit more clear i can do a lot more than to look back and just cry.
