Whisper of the Vesper

When the hustle-bustle of the city halts,
Beyond twelve the clock vaults,
Households switch the lights off,
A sound sleep is what one thinks of.

Nature has its own way of treating you,
Blissful is the wet palpable dew,
Enchanting is the breeze that flows,
Reposes your mind with full blow.

Beneath the sky on a quiescent night,
With glistening stars shining bright,
When mothers read out fairy tales,
Commotion desists, only silence prevails.

The best time to explore your conscience,
A Soul filled with omniscience;
Scared of obstacles yet to see,
O dear child, introspection is the key!

Delve into self to cognize your traits,
Between right & wrong the intellect debates;
Invest some time in knowing your self,
To carve a niche in this world all by yourself.

Someone I admire!

They say you live only once, 
So live it to the core. 
But God has blessed me with so much, 
There's nothing I would ask for more. 

 There's a wonderful lady I admire, 
To me, she's the one who inspires. 
Her voice is as melodious as could be, 
As sweet as the nectar of honey-bee. 

 She is a daughter to proud parents, 
Also a caring wife. 
Blessed with a jovial kid, 
The inevitable part of her life. 

 Beautiful is this lady, with her heart so pure, 
Yes, I adore her kindness to the core. 
One of the most-loving Aquarians I have known, 
With all her prowess, my Mind she has blown. 

 Author of the books I love, 
Her amazing vocab is over and above. 
Embodiment of serenity, 
She's an epitome of simplicity. 

 Popular are the plays she directs, 
Inspirational is the message she spreads.
 My hidden talents she helped me explore, 
May the applause of her success grow more and more.

 I am connected to her, and that's all I know, 
This affectionate bond of love will forever grow. 
She's my strength for whenever I feel low, 
It's a faith intact, there's nothing that I need to show.

 I thank the almighty for sending this angel in my life, 
To stay with her, is my craving so rife. 
Thankfully there comes a date.. 21st Jan.. 
when i can celebrate this precious gift of my life!!

Awakening amidst the abysmal anarchy

The so-called largest democracy of the world – India, is sadly on the verge of loosing its magnanimity.
All we see around today is merely a political falderal. The political parties today, are only interested in pricking the development balloons of the significant opponents. The political leaders, who are supposedly the altruist of the nation, have unfortunately lost all their credibility in the public.

These gullible senators certainly seem to have acquired a degree in grafting. They first come to power by exercising all their influence. And once they get it, then starts the actual drama. They try and fulfill all their dreams. Dreams - which are only theirs. All they are worried about is setting aside enough funds for their vested interests.  No one takes the pain of securing the future of the country!

Who tends to remember the theories of responsibility and righteousness?  All their vows become a thing of past. This leaves the common man with displeasure and complaints. Complaints - which nobody bothers to hear.

We’ve had it enough. Wake up people. The times have now changed. Gone are the days when one used to moan in despair. It's time to show them what a common man can do. It’s time to strengthen ourselves with the weapon of “Constitutional Rights”. The rights that were once studied about in our Civics books. We have the right to “Freedom of Expression” but we seldom use it. We have the “Judiciary”, but we hardly raise an issue. The fundamental duties that we were asked to by-heart in our early stages, we tend to forget them.

This callousness will cost us a great deal.  To remind you all, a very vital role that we play in deciding the fate of the country, is the ultimate power of voting. Democracy is significant of the people’s power. But that will only make an impact, if we, the people actually participate. It is often found that nearly half the population is ignorant when it comes to casting your votes.  Behave like wise men, judge the candidates and cast in your vote for the one who deserves it. Simply sitting at home is not an option. Your vote is important.

If all of us unite, we can definitely bring a change. As it is rightly said, determination and wisdom can make the impossible happen!!

             “All it takes to light up the world, is a little spark that ignites,
                                 Enliven the spark in you, it’s high time”

Everything on your fingertips!

And while browsing the web, I came across something really interesting! In the techno-world that we dwell in, "Gingr" has added a feather to the cap of development.
Gingr is a website that bridges the gap between customers and the business. It is India's first instant messaging service that lets user chat with local businesses around.
We often look up to queries like :
Do you have it in stock? What are the charges for haircut? Can I get a cab to airport in an hour? Can we get a table for 5?
But isn't it amazing when you can get it all on your fingertips. Gingr is available on web: www.gingr.me and you can download the android app as well: www.gingr.me/play
We actually needed something of this sort! As it is rightly said, "Neccesity is the mother of invention" :)
Now, your brain would be mushrooming with thoughts on how talented these guys must be!
Its an effort of about 20 year olds that has bore all the fruit. Yes, Gingr is a venture started by IIT Delhi students who are about to graduate this year.
Gingr is going to launch publicly in end of August in whole Delhi NCR, targeting 7 categories as of now : Food & Nightlife, Wellness (spa, gyms, parlors, massage), Cabs, music & sports equipment and mobile stores.
Its worth appreciation how these guys have manged to come out with such an idea! I am sure that success will come their way and it'd indeed be wonderful if they launch it nation-wide!
My best wishes to the team :)

The Heavenly Brink

Dispatched from the womb of God,
Hail the trebling raindrops.
Brings about bliss all around,
Cheerful chirpy children feel happy and sound.

Sometimes severe, sometimes mild,
And at times, as playful as a child.
Makes the sound of stadium applause,
Tends to still life, with a pause.

Happily play in the pond - the frog and the duck,
And there are potholes, filled with muck.
Excites the children to make paper boats,
And their mothers dress them in raincoats.

Fills the enormous ocean, drop-by-drop,
Begets clear rills that twine like a warp.
Quenches the thirst of many, down the slope,
Pleases the farmers and boosts them with hope.

Water, water, all around,
Alas! water scarcity knows no bound.
Nature assumes humans to be wise,
To conserve its resources, meagre in size.

Screaming as loud as a thunder,
Art thou raindrops full of anger?
Chattering with its pitch aloud,
As if that's a message for the crowd.

A message to alert the mankind,
So as to Save the Earth & 'be kind'.
Trying to awake the passive and the dormant,
A humble request to alter their devastating potent.

Nature is the best teacher for all,
Brings joy to life, and moves away the pall.
Cherish the blooming roses and the lavishing lawn,
Wake up to sustain it, before it's gone!

Happy bday Maa

Though She was not there with me since my birth, but yes SHE has now turned out to be an indispensable part of my life. There is indeed a magical bond of love between us - a thread of affection that keeps us intact!
         I still remember that day when Madam Punita Nehru joined DPS as a Principal. But who knew that God was planning to send maa into my life. Yes, she is a mother to me. And I proudly speak out the fact that she's my mommy. I have learned so much from her. Oh, yes! She is my saviour! And has always helped me to sail through. An embodiment of benevolence and love, how generous a lady she is. And on top of that her beauty is incomparable. Not only the outer appearance, her values and purity embrace her divine beauty.
           Those good old times at DPSR that I still cherish to the core. The short stories that you read out in the assembly. The beautiful bday cards that we used to get on our birthdays. That word of appreciation for conducting the morning assembly so well. That juice treat for performing well in the annual function! E.H.V. classes were equally fun. There was always so much to learn. And that sweet unforgettable smile that you always wore. I really miss those golden moments maaa! <3
          "Tough times never last, but tough people do" - I have learnt this from you. I promise you maa that a day will come when I will make you proud. I am sure of my success because when my hardwork intersects your blessings and guidance, then nothing is impossible!
           I love so much. I owe you so much. Respect you always! :) So today is the day when I thank the  almighty for sending someone so angellic in this world. Oh, yes ofcourse, it is such a special day of August 2.
          
          "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAA"

Similarly, I was desperately waiting to have a word with the person I really admire. Yeah, thats none other than Ayushmann Khurrana!!
