Sublimity

Sublimity

Her buturyceous body lay listless on the ground
Few ragged breaths made people confound.
Between life and death did she oscillate
His saving faith and prayers did perpetuate.
He encased her in his arms of benovelence.
Breathed in her a breath of prudence.
Saved was she from the clutches of cessation.
He struck back on his enemy with solid retribution.
Smitten was she by his courage and valliance
Mesmerised and dazed by his powerful radiance
She lovingly adorned him with his red armour
Transformed was he into an epitome of ardour
He moved with his sword with a lightning speed
Turning the battle into show of desire and deed.
Today neither was she a courtesan nor just his paramour
She was his soul mate , his eternal love and his lady demure.
Decisive and glorious was his victory in the war
Her celebrations for him were nothing but display galore.
The room was suffused with redolence and radiance
Aureate candlelight adding to the exquisite ambience
Silky satin strewn with soft petals
Precious and valuable was it for him than his medals
Entwined and encased were they in each others arms
Taking their love into sublime charms...
Taking their love into sublime charms.

_Starry Laughs_

  _Starry Laughs_ My cousin, her friend Veena, and I went on a hill station adventure that felt like a breath of fresh air, literally. Girivan, nestled in the Sahyadri ranges, proved to be a tranquil escape from the crowded chaos of other popular hill stations. Veena, our gracious host, led us to her farmhouse, and the journey up the windy and uphill roads was an experience in itself. Finally reaching her house was like stumbling upon a hidden gem—a classic Spanish villa with bold yellow walls bordered in deep red, standing proudly amid lush greenery. Veena's garden resembled a botanical wonderland, featuring an assortment of trees, from mangoes to bayleaf, palm to bananas. It was a paradise where guava, jaam, amla, peppercorn, and betel leaf creepers coexisted in harmony, creating a serene and zen-like atmosphere. Our taste buds were treated to a culinary spread by Veena's talented housekeeper. Rustic chicken gravy, sautéed dried fish (बोंबील), bhakri, and warm इंद्रायणी भ...

Not All Lights Are in the Sky!!

Travelling for me is not about ticking boxes. Not about doing ten activities in one day or chasing thrills like a reality show contestant. For me, travel is about people. The strangers who become stories. The conversations that quietly sit in your heart long after the photos are forgotten. I have already written pages about Tromsø. The lights. The snow. The frozen eyelashes. But when I look back, the real glow also came from the people we met. Like Håkon. I was sitting alone at a table in Sann Café, guarding my mushroom soup and freshly baked bread like a squirrel with winter supplies. The rest of the family had gone to order. From the corner of my eye, I had noticed the man at the next table earlier. He was enjoying a glass of Chardonnay with something called a Norwegian Sann burger. Which, let us be honest, is just a beef burger wearing a Scandinavian accent. He introduced himself. Håkon. From Tromsø originally, now living near Oslo. A teacher. In town for the annual film festival. H...

Throwing some groovy moves with mirth and sleek finesse . Articulate and fluent was each of her spoken line. Laced with bubbly energy flowing freely through the mine. Sober and peaceful she sat in one corner But to the music she soon transformed into a diva, needing no warner!! Her humorous prance soon became the centre of the night Transforming the party into a playful and magical sprite. The party was full of joy , fun and a big shooting gallery Lucky was I to be a part of this cheery mirthful jamboree!! Lucky was I to be a part of this cheery mirthful jamboree!!
