A Moment......

When the twinkling star teased at our silence

When the firefly silently approved our presence

When we got drenched in a flood of moonlight

When the cliff on the horizon shined bright

When your hair began to dance with cool breeze

When you spoke only with your eyes

When the time stopped moving

When there was no tomorrow, only the moment was prevailing

Be it a moment, so what?

Cherished it, from core of the heart!

A tryst pampered by kind nature

A wink, a smile, a touch, a whisper,

And a moment to remember

A moment.....

That leaves an everlasting impression

A moment......

That doesn't come along very often.

Waterfall

 

Visited recently the Dhuandhar Waterfall in Jabalpur, MP on River Narmada. The natural beauty of the waterfall was awesome. Narmada flows in this terrain,through the marble rocks, like a bubbly teen! Also boating through the downstream of the waterfall left me with an amazing serenity. Famous fusion band Indian Ocean had composed a song Ma Rewa way back, which describes Narmada flawlessly.
Twenty years back I visited the same place with my parents. Still I could relate my faint memory with the sight.

Raging down the rugged cliff

With the astounding vivacity

Of a bubbly teen.
 

Playing with the gushing wind,

Spurting droplets upwards,

Filling the air with dreamy mist,

Forms a smoke cascade.
 

Sizzling smoky water,

Like a playful bride,

flirts with the pristine white marble rocks.

 

Savior

In everyone's life there are one or more people who come as savior. They understood you, helped you, guided you, saved you from predicament and then gradually disappeared. Sometimes they do it of their own will; but most of the time we only forget them and push them into oblivion. They save you in many ways you can be saved. They extend their hands selflessly when you need them most and never ask anything in return.

Standing on the cross-road

Swept away in an opaque crowd

Or whirling aimlessly

In a neverending carousel.

Lost in a thousand ways,

Was looking for a way out

Failed attempts to fight a battle unarmed

Remained my voices unheard

Whilst lost in the darkness of daylight,

You showed a sunrise; new and bright.

Whilst running almost astray,

You showed the hope imminent in another day.

Holding your hand I stepped into the ladder

You smiled, watched me going up, my savior.

With a dream of million stars shining,

In search of rainbow, I kept on walking.

Glimpsing back in time, didn't I bother
You smiled, watched me going up, my savior.
