Eau

My first log in 2012! Whoa! It took me a whole of 6 months to get the computer and Internet fixed.

It’s been so long! I have kinda forgotten to write.. :) Eau means “water” in French.  Well, there can’t be any life without water! So here goes my Haiku.

Eau

Essential to life

After all it is white blood

Unbiased God’s gift

Do let me know your comments! :)

Victory

Popsey always says ‘V’ for victory while spelling his name. Heehee.. his name starts with ‘V’ and so does my initial. :D Winning is great and that too against all odds is a superlative feeling! An acrostic on that:

Come up trumps

Criticism taken

Overhauling carefully

Measured steps

Efforts matter

Unabated enthusiasm

Playing tactfully

Trigger set

Rising tension

Utter disbelief

Magnificent victory

Promptly sealed

Surprising all

Progress

Hits and misses are part of life! Everybody goes through a learning curve. Each experience leaves us with some knowledge we have to use it and apply it. That’s all! :)

Has been

Here we go

Administering our faults

Sighing, wishing, repenting

Being is living

Ever been there

Errors do happen

Novices evolve too

Proceed and progress!! :)

Melancholy

Melancholy

Mystery of destiny

Even as I

Long to strive

All comes to

Nothing fruitful ever

Consumed I’m left

Hope has gone

Out of sight

Letting darkness alone

Yield shall I?

Just do it

Sometimes you just have to go for it. Probably there will be no further opportunities. Trust your instincts and go for it! Just do it yaar! :D (yaar is a Hindi word meaning buddy) 

Just do it

Jab of reality knocks

Unveil those spectacular dreams

Say now or never

Take chance or lose

Defect your doubts, go

Onward with unshakeable spirit

Invigorate your abilities and

Trust yourself to triumph

B'bye visitor!! Rock on! ;)

Guest

Hello guest!! :) thanks for visiting!

In India, it is believed that a guest at door is like God himself at our doorstep. “Atithi devo bhava” this is in Sanskrit meaning, guest is God ! They say utmost care should be taken of the guests and their needs. But times are changing and so are perceptions.

Guests are a mixed bunch, sometimes you have so much fun with them that you do not want them to go and sometimes it is a relief when they leave. Heehe..  Here is a cheeky line by an unknown author – “Hospitality is making your guests feel at home, even if you wish they were.” Rightly so sometimes, but the whole experience is rare. You get to know so many things from your visitors, be it the usage of a new appliance or interesting facts about a new landscape, language; some unknown home remedies; the art of dealing with people, life, problems, so on and so forth.

Bringing to light a guest and the effect! ;)

Guest

Good for company

Unsung at times

Exchanges gossip, gifts

Swamped when appealing

Teaches curious lessons

Hope you enjoyed reading! Cya!!

The Tuskers

Elephants are a delight. Their huge milk-white tusks look great and they are sometimes menacing too. Their royal appearance lends grandeur to the atmosphere. It is nice to watch them. We once went on an elephant ride at Theikkady, Kerala, amidst pepper and spices plantations. It was a splendid experience. :)

Okay then! Sam brings you a poem on the gentle beast.

Elephant

Enormous yet agile

Lovely ivory tusks

Extended flexible nose

Placid tiny eyes

Hard wiry hair

Astute and majestic

Noshes coconuts, vegetation

Truly remarkable creation

Catch ya soon! Ciao!!

Think and act

How often I wish I had thought it out before making that choice. Doesn’t it happen with everyone? Impulsive and hasty decisions most often cause displeasure and resentment to oneself and others too. So take a little time to think out the various options and their consequences, in detail and then make your important decisions. It is of course easier said than done. Nevertheless one should try.

Here are my thoughts in verses on the same!  :)

Think Twice

Thoughtless decisions seldom

Have you happy

Invoking trouble, regret

Naivety flaws, however

Kneel not dear

Turn every stone

Weigh positives-negatives

Inspect and contemplate

Clarity duly dawns

Enjoy smooth sailing
