Silence



Silence is serene.
Silence is solace.
In several ways, silence
saves the savage soul.
Silence is static, strong,
like sky-kissing mountains
circling a sleepy hill town.
Silence is somber
when it stems from sadness.
Silence strives
to sleep over sickening strategies.
Silence confers the childlike sleep upon the soulful,
while it steals the peace of the soulless.
Silence smiles
and silences all conjectures.
For a few, silence is a sweet remedy;
for others, silence is a malady.
For some, silence is a question
impossible to crack.
For others, silence is the answer
to every crux.
For some, silence is a shield.
For others,
the sharpest knife,
the searing scythe.
Most times, aparently silence saves bonds.
At times,
it breaks them
into forms unrecognizable.
Silence wears the face of a silent sage,
yet stands indisputed as 
a symbol of untamed rage.
Life screams.
Death silences.
silence is a voice in itself,
raising walls too high
for unwanted noise to climb.
Silence is a misunderstood path
of peace, of truce.
But when reflected upon deeply,
it says only this:
Get
Out
Of my way.

When Skill Meets Determination:A Salon, A Story and a Salute

Since time immemorial, both men and women have wished, ventured, and craved to look good, better, and sometimes the best. In every nook and corner of the world, whether in a bustling city, a quiet suburb, or a small village, salons and beauty parlours stand as testimony to this universal desire. With each generation, the dependence on such services has grown, shortcuts have become acceptable, and professional grooming has turned into a necessity rather than a luxury. This observation isn’t a conclusion drawn from research; it is born from personal experience with my twenty-one-year-old daughter. Having recently begun to manage her life independently, she is particular about her appearance and outlook. For the past three years, she has been living abroad and returns home every December for a month. During this time, she sweetly wishes to be pampered in every possible way. One such indulgence is getting her hair washed and blow-dried at a salon so that her curtain bangs remai...

Fire

Fire, fire, fire, Can I dare to beg of you to be hired? Hired by someone as fragile as me, A timid soul, afraid to set herself free. I know I am too timid to dream of taming you; It is idiosyncratic, perhaps, to think this through. It is in no way wise to walk these lines, Yet your fierce companionship my spirit designs. I want you by my side to help me burn away All that is negative, all that leads astray; All the weeds in the dying, diminishing garden of my life, All the bitterness, sorrow, and silent strife. The effigy of greed, of need, and all that dares To kill fine human values and replace them with snares, Needs to be set on fire, yet I feel My weak bones lack such divine zeal. Though I aspire to rise like a phoenix from my ashes, To emerge renewed after life's cruel clashes, For that, you must become my ally, A force within that will never let me die. Fire, you who are a symbol of both death and resurrection, Of destruction, creation, and sacred transformation, You graciou...
