Binding Differences

One fine day, as He looked from above,

The pride of creation sunk – it was Earth sans love.

The hearts He had paired with skillful similarities,

had converted the art into ugly disparities.

“Let me teach by example”,

He had a brain wave and crafted a pair, to differences engrave.

Such was the contrast in nature and aim,

It almost seemed impossible they shared the same name.

Took twenty one long years for them to meet,

But steel struck steel in the very first greet.

One like the sea, turbulence personified,

The other like the ocean, with calm inside.

One was honest, to the extent of being crude,

The other weighed words to refrain from being rude.

One had a heart as soft as a child’s,

The other’s was pure but far from being mild.

A year passed by as we witnessed in awe,

With differences so stark, how eye to eye they saw.

Anger with patience, hard work with smart,

They balanced the differences – masters of the art.

Covering up for the other’s mistakes,

They set the example – the “Different” namesakes.

The virtue of acceptance – to let differences bind,

And treasure His pairs, was the message to our kind

An Encounter With Rain !!

An Encounter With Rain !!

Stranded in the middle of nowhere,
Listening to the sea-winds' roar.
Waiting was I for some ship to arrive,
and take me to a serene shore.
My boat was damaged, battered and bruised,
many holes it bore.
Suddenly, heavens opened up,
and heavily it began to pour.

Raining were swift arrows of water,
On my boat's heart, a havoc they played.
The storm wasn't any bit less frightening,
all got badly disarrayed.
Still clinging to the slender string of hope,
holding was I the rowing blade.
My hopes got vivified for a new life ahead,
as I spot a streamer approaching to my aid !!

A second chance

A second chance
As I went walking through a forest,

I saw a waterfall, enchanting and wild.

Oh I loved that flowing water,

Oh I wanted to dive deep inside.



I was hoping to unfold a mystery,

To see the world from other side,

Scary though it seemed at first,

But I had made up my mind for the ride.



I closed my eyes, said a silent prayer,

Lifted my feet from the ground into air.

As I fell down with the water,

I could feel the wind play with my hair.



I went to the land of seas,

Those mermaids, the fishes, the pearls white,

I then wished to stay there forever,

I kept admiring this world all night.



I got up the next day, on the sea bed,

Oh I longed for air, I lost my breath in the sea,

I wanted to shout for help,

But there was none to hear me.



Suddenly a hand came down from above,

Took my hand in his hands and took me along,

He brought me back to my world which I left,

But that was the place where I belong!



I was not walking through the forest,-I was walking through life,

I had grief in my heart, n I began to wonder…

Will I get something better if I take the plunge?

Oh I wish to that thought I did not surrender.



I jumped down,

and for one day the world seemed fine,

But the world I had entered,

Didn’t just seem to be mine.



I didn’t lose my breath in the sea-

I missed the one I love,

Then I prayed he’ll come back for me,

To take me back above.





So just when things go wrong once,

Don’t jump into that alluring waterfall,

It might seem beautiful at first,

But its not worth you even with its pearls n all.



If life has blessed you with a heart that loves you,

Don’t lose it because of a simple mistake.

Instead, nurture it with understanding and trust,

So just give another chance for love’s sake.



So go back now, and make up with them,

give them just another chance to show,

love is not about all good moments,

it can also sometimes face the times low.



“If I am ever not the man who I am now-

Its only you who can bring me back” once said he….

Today I just want one chance for us,

You once said I am your angel,

And today I promise I will be ..Ash
