Silence

Silence is golden,
Silence is an indisputed lethal weapon,
 when enemy is unknown. 
Silence is unshakeable truce,
when you want an unwanted altercation to cease. 
The strongest prayer is silent.
The sage reading of the human disposition is also silent.
Silence for sure is end of violence.
Alas! Though Silence is considered a precious asset 
Yet  silence has another not so welcoming facade. 
Face that is devoid of grace and 
that has capacity to wipe out the goodness of the human race.
Silence undoubtedly is synonym of end,
End of the road that leads to good times ahead.
While dialogue though heated is a thread 
That clutches on flimsy hope .
Hope that once negativity of battered hearts is flushed out.
The radiant flowers of new and better days would be blossomed.
Life is noise while death is quiet.
Therefore,  before picking the silent ways,
Let your soul one final time shriek or cry,
Otherwise, you will have no choice left,
 But to freeze alone inside the tunnel that's extremely cold.
And before  you would realize thick impassable curtains would fall one after the other making it impossible for you to ever again gracious clemency behold.

Papa

One more year has slipped by Of course, now there are no more audible cries. Yet, the pain of your departure is still acutely strong, Nothing can be done to rectify twenty two years old wrong, When you were quiet aware of the chiming of your death gong. And decided to suddenly without any prior intimation to be forever gone. And those final twenty four hours seemed to be so heavy and long, when from human form you were turned into ashes who was once so strong. Alas! that day,  It wasn't you who were solely  gutted in that so called holy fire, So much more was turned into coal and tar, Your younger ones' innocence and elder ones' desires were with you for a while gone. With you gone, Suddenly the warm gusts of this dreary world were chasing your progeny. But law of life is to keep going, Day or night, Dawn or dusk, Alone or with people around, With or without you, Life moved on and is still moving. But though physically missing  Yet, you haven't been completely forlorn....

Visit to An Old Age Home

Tossed time and again by the insensitive and merciless tides of life everything seemed sullen and saturating. A constant worry of what the future will unfold, an apprehension whether l will be at the gaining end or will languish at the loser's desk was killing the very desire to live. Last fortnight, specifically was cumbersome and nothing except the five or six periods within my classrooms with young students kept me going. Both of my kids went abroad to study .Within two years my nest became empty in a happy way. Often, l have heard people commenting that we would wither away alone in lndia since kids who go abroad never ever look back.  Honestly speaking, l never ever feel so. I feel wherever my children are they should be happy, healthy and wealthy. I have complete trust on my upbringing. Here l am reminded of Dr. Kalam.In his autobiography the legendary missile man Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam  had mentioned about an incident that when he had to leave Rameshwaram for higher studie...

Mom

Motherhood is the most beautiful and satiating moment of every woman's life. The mammoth task of rearing a child becomes the sole driving force behind every woman once she attains motherhood.One of the most beautiful moments of my life was also undoubtedly when l had 21 years ago seen the face of my first born for the first time and another was when the Almighty had blessed me with my younger born 19 years back. Since then the centre of my life became the two children born to me. Day in and day out a silent prayer for their health and well-being goes on in my conscience, and that's what every mother does. My profession the sublimest one i.e teaching has mostly female staff who have a strong motherly instinct and are thus able to relish strong bond with the students. Present day teaching demands rigorous in-service trainings. The teachers like me attended various workshops from time to time in order to enhance their skills. During these workshops we got to interact with the teac...
