Farewell



How do you count down

The days left for your departure

How do you prepare for a new beginning

Leaving Everything you love and cherish behind

How do you stop that ache in your heart ?

How do you stop that tear from rolling down ?

And How do you really do it all ?


You are accustomed to the smell in the air

The sights that you behold daily

Your are familiar with the people

And their comforting company 

And yet, Such is life

Not a pond that you can keep swimming on 

But a river that flows onward and onwards 

Where you'd have to go with the flow

till you drain into your sea


I hope I am not forgotten

By these streets that I walked everyday 

These roofs that sheltered me every night 

These walls that's seen me cry and laugh

These corridors that have seen my joy amd sorrow 

And these people

Whom I keep fondly in my heart

And I hope someday in my future 

Our path will crosss again

And we share one last drink

Sitting side by side, besides a warming fire

For old times sake

The Undisputed Master of Courtroom Thrillers

John Grisham is as good as he is prolific. His numerous foray into the world of courtroom thrillers and beyond have filled up many bookracks. But, thankfully he hasn't compromised the quality of his writing. Year after year, he continues to deliver excellent courtroom thrillers, tying it up with vivid tales of corrupt institutions, corporate greed and the vices of law practices to which any reader would have been happily unaware. Although his first book, A Time to Kill wasn't popular initially, his next novel The Firm brought him worldwide recognition. And finally, his previous works also got the attention they deserved.  Each and every novel of John Grisham are undoubtedly the benchmarks in the genre, but today I'd like to pick my favourite and gush over it a little. Although it is very difficult to single out his best novel from the likes of The Firm, The Partner, The Pelican Brief, A Time to Kill , and so on,  I have picked a favourite. It's The Rainmaker.

Delirium

                                                            Delirium Would you like to know? What does it feel like? When you are a prisoner of your mind? And subject to its confabulated pranks To wander aimlessly in your memory land In an eternal state of existential crisis Stuck in the twilight zone Between consciousness and unconsciousness Questioning each moment Wait, is it really mine? How do I know that? What is real, what is not? Do you know what it’s like to wonder? Minute after minute, hour after hour Are the voices you hear really being spoken? And the touch you feel? Is it really there? Is the ocean just a reflection of the sky? With the endless azure blue? Are those Angels I see? With the brilliant white and the golden halo? Questions, Questions, Questions ...

Red Under The Skin

[This poem was  Judged as Third  in the Poem Competition organized on the occasion of Blood Donation Week-2020, by  BPKIHS Students Blood Donation Committee ]. Red Under The Skin What a strange time we are living in. Can you imagine a time more desperate? A time so morally barren and arid A time where indifference is the norm And humanity is the exception.                                                                                                                                Photo by  LuAnn Hunt  on  Unsplash Where inequality, injustice and discrimination Are as...
