Affirmed & Perfect
I looked at my reflect,
Green T-shirt paired with black pants,
Hopes of bright future surged ahead.
I waited long, till a van came,
Reached late when class had already commenced,
Nervous and unknown in that herd,
I thought,
Someone would know the Aditi I left.
With each passing day,
I, too, failed to recollect.
Adjusting among peers,
I left laughter, fun and ease.
All still went well,
Until I was mocked for which I was best.
Making a front bencher hide at last,
Uninterested to struggle further,
She surrendered too fast.
Leaving her nurturers disheartened,
She cried alone at dark nights on bed.
Simultaneously, a heart break came.
Cracking a whole of four chambers in million shards.
I remember I had said;
'Changes & Adjustments can't be for vain'.
I didn't knew,
How a white lie was used;
To ease our worries,
For the uncertain future ahead.
I pay homage to you, venerable divine Goddess!
You are one in many; many in one; Isotropous!
You are incorporation of Aditi, Bhairavi,
Durga, Gayatri, Laxmi, Rukhmini, Saraswati...!
You are the goddess of the east and west and south and north,
And every other direction of the evolving earth!
Your spirit pervades each and every particle of life,
Of each atom of the nucleus of every fine fife!
You are the merger of each perception and consciousness,
Goddess of each little element of the universe!
You are ever past, present, and the future endlessly,
You are fertility of beauty, knowledge, victory!
You are fecundity, wisdom, music, and every art,
You are an indwelling, impelling lover of each heart!
Help me, dear goddess, that I may tell of your great stories
Of the past and present and future for all your glories!
Humanity may learn from ages to become more human,
And orient their lives to the future graces... Amen!

Most sincere traveller in forth
That ever survived on Earth.
Advancing throughout the excursion,
Always focussed, never in diversion.
Equivalent for all living worlds,
Every domain, everything it holds.
Sun may not appear in dismay,
But, it’s already counted as a day.
Maybe celebration midnight,
Unaffected, it progresses worldwide.
It’s something unstoppable
And nothing could disable.
The time which navigates everyone,
Yet being dependent on none.

Is skeptical our proximity
Or closeness of heartbeat,
There exists an unanimity,
That we cannot compete.
---
Maybe we represent the stars,
Emotion-filled twinkling eyes,
Gazing at each other for hours,
Their unique glimpse never lies.
---
Alike moments in transition,
None and nothing can ever bother,
Subsistence with time of creation,
Never collapse into each other.
---
For love, matters not the distance
As the genuine feelings enhance.

Yes its PS it’s Poetry
“There’s praise in words, and words in praise
“Write ON, Write ON”
I have a free and boundless mind
From the chains of thoughts pulling behind,
The dark past making way difficult to find,
I have no reasons for it to rewind.
I also do not wish to own,
Ever changing faces not known,
The manipulative feelings not shown,
And the true relations not grown.
I way I think, it never leads
To the greedy illusioned needs,
Against the goodness which feeds,
A kind of evil manifested seeds.
I believe that wherever I go,
A brighter part, I have to show,
As the inspiring thoughts glow,
Through passing time, it flow.
