Something Wonderful..

Let me play you a song,
A melody, immersed in the tunes of eons.

Something wonderful,
My heart begins to sing ..

It will remind you of the days gone by,
When you and I were probably just nine .

We sat in your garden and played Tra-la-da,
The echoes of that tune, I fight to remember .

Something wonderful,
My heart begins to sing ..

The emotions of nostalgia rush to me like a wave,
Making me terribly melancholic from which I cannot escape .

How I wish I could turn back the time,
Is it possible if I pay a dime?

Something wonderful,
My heart begins to sing ..

I pick up the violin,
My fingers struggling with the strings .

You sit beside me and touch my hand,
And the music plays as if radiated from a magic wand .

Something wonderful,
My heart begins to sing ..

Those years gone by,
Seem just like yesterday .

Today you are amidst me,
And we enter twenty nine..

Sometimes I Sporadically Wonder...

Sometimes I sporadically wonder,
Stressing my senses to ponder over,
Issues which are perhaps irrelevant for others,
But which for me arises curiosity in greatest numbers.

There maybe a scientific explanation for each happening..
But that does not stop me from thinking..
As to why the sky shines blue,
Instead of a myriad hue.

Are the ants blessed with the power of speech?
If it is so, why can’t it reach me?
Is it true that bats are blind?
Assuming so, then how do they function their minds?

They say dreams occasionally come true..
What are these dreams and why do they make me so woo?
Why do they manifest occasionally and are latent for a few?
Besides why only for a few and not for the other few?

These are my questions for you,
Is there really a ‘you’ or aren’t we all just ‘I’s?
I am ‘I’ and you are ‘you’..
Do you finally get the cue?

UNCERTAINTY

The turmoil of unforeseen uncertainty I am going through right now is better felt than described in words. The phrase that ‘ Nothing in life goes according to plans ‘ is so true and meaningful and I have never before felt the need of saying it so explicitly. Atleast in my case whatever I plan is dis-shelved before implementation. Well to think about it, obviously not all but sometimes the major important decisions.

I don’t know what to attribute this to? An unseen mystical force or maybe the mere dependence on an external unconnected entity, be it a person or an event. Something like contingent happenings. It is probably one of the reasons as to why things do not follow the destined path of careful and planned execution.

Right now I am shadowed by the cloud of uncertainty. It is more like the cloud of disappointment due to uncertainty. I can’t help but recall ‘The Doctrine of Eclipse’, which I recently studied in Constitutional Law. WHATEVER!! Besides who wouldn’t be disappointed when a particular dream of many months is shattered? Mine is. But to think of it I totally believe that ‘Everything happens for one’s own good’ so maybe in this shattered dream, there lies a hidden wonderful surprise.. Maybe. Again a possibility.

My senses are committing havoc in my mind but my brain prevails over my senses and calms it down. I am optimistic and as I said a hopeless one. So I will do what I can do best and that is pray and hope for a little ‘Felix Felis’ ( for those who don’t read Harry Potter, Felx Felis is the name of a lucky portion), to cast away these clouds of uncertainty over my head and to restore sunshine. Wishing myself ‘Good Luck’! No matter what anybody says a hundred times, I believe in luck and will always pray for ‘Good Luck’.
