"YARD -STICK"

Do not count
Our life span
By years,
Instead,
Count it with
That immeasurable
Melodius song
Of love
That we sang
All these years!!!

"SIMPLE"

Truth is very simple;
Lies need make-up!

My Lord is lovingly simple;
His praisers are not!

I hear my beloved's voice
In the silent twinkling of stars;
Whispers of breeze;
Murmers of leaves!!e

Each one is a flower
Blossomed from the
Hidden roots!!

Your divine song
Create ripples
In my heart's river and
The waves of my passion
Dance to your tune!!!
I make merry
Participating in your
Cosmic dance!!!

"I NEVER GIVE UP"

Yes, I am an woman
With rainbow colours
Both in and out!

You can't stop me blooming
By abusing,
Inhibiting,
Exploiting by
Beliefs and traditions
Combined with selfish motives!

I am an embodiment of all
That is divine!
I can create, sustain and
Love like my creator!

I can bear man's innumerable
Physical and mental tortures
And yet have the ability to
Forget, forgive and stand up
Again with a challenge!

I play different roles with ease;
Am a multi-task expert;
Can do many things
Which a man cannot do!

I am an angel to those
Who love and respect me
For what I am;
A demon to those who torture!

A man may defeat my body
By his physical strength
But never can win over
My mind and heart without
The fragrance of genuine feelings!
My mind or heart is not for rent,
Mind it!!
I always keep it with me.

I am not a butterfly to play with;
I am the beautiful flower instead!
I am very much subtler than
What you think of me.
I am the personification of love
The pure essence of creation!!

"IS MARRIAGE A BUSINESS?"

Dead silence in the bed room.
Both Suma and Vivek stood there like strangers. Suddenly breaking the silence, Suma took out her gold necklace with black beeds and a marriage badge ( considered to be sacred since it is tied by the bridegroom during marriage rituals) and her dimond ring given by him at the time of their wedding and placed it before him. This was quite unexpected and a shocking situation to him and he faced his wife with a perplexed look.

"Just because of these ornaments relationships do not survive. Our bondage is not as strong as one link of this chain. Our relationship is a very big lie. For you it was a matter of licence  to satisfy your lust. But, I don't think so! For me, it is an extension of my heart's love. I cannot remain here like a prisoner and work like a maid servant. From this moment I am free from this relationship of lie and slavery".

Saying this, Suma moved towards the door and stopped hearing Vivek speak.
"Why should we break up for the problems created by a third person?"
Hearing this, a faint smile crossed on her lips. She talked to herself.
" When I am moving out, this man is talking as if he has not done anything. Since five years I am living here like a third person. Where was this relationship all these years? He is the same person who demanded lakhs and lakhs of Rupees to please his parents and warned me that nothing remains between us. Now he is talking as if very innocent. Who knows about this man much better than me? Fear of losing family prestige is compelling him to talk like this.
But I don't care anymore. I am leaving him for ever"
Talking within herself in these lines, Suma told Vivek:
"See Vivek, I am not in a position to answer any of your questions. Before going I want to make my point very clear. Married life is not a child's play. It is not a business dealing. It is a bondage of love that brings two hearts and their families together on emotional grounds. It is not a logic. Life is like a balancing scale. If you want harmony in life the two balancing plates should be of equal weight.You should balance it with love; not with money! Otherwise this would be the outcome. You are solely responsible for this unfortunate
situation. You think through your mother's brain. How can you take a firm decision when you dont know what actually you need in life? Now, there is nothing left to advice or explain.
I am capable of living on my own earnings unlike you! I don't need anything that identifies me with your name. So I have returned these ornaments. These things have value only when there is love between us. But, when it has become a business dealing these symbols of relationship lose its meaning. You are free to marry any woman who can meet your demands. Ok I am going; good bye Mr.Vivek!!"

With these words Suma opens the door and goes out without even glancing at him.
Watching this courageous act of that lady the socalled social system of marriage began to think where it went wrong!!!

"BATH OF BLISS"

Amidst heavy rain of
un-invited guests that
enter into my mind's premises
I steal few moments
in between two rain drops
that elates my 'self' to
astonishing heights!

I take a quick bath of bliss
in those blessed moments
and continue enjoying
the rain too!

The stolen moments of
blissful solitude
makes me more alert
while I hear the
melodius music of cosmos
making my heart and soul
dance to its tunes
in sublime ecstasy!

"I SING"

You are the one
for whom I sing
come to me dear
now and then!

Do you know darling
one more thing
not for flowers
the honey bee sings!

I am the melody
you are the rhythm
we both together
music divine!

Here I wait beloved
for you to come
without you, my
heart won't sing!

Please be present
with me,
now and then
World will hear our
duet song!

"MEETING"

When
the star
I was
aspiring for
descended
to earth
placing
a soft kiss
on my lips
the fire in me
induced a
lovely flame
that spread
all over
my body
making me
more and more
Vulnerable!
