Con amore


When I wanna stay, you make me leave,
And then you make me stay , when I wanna leave.
But then, you make me believe, when I am in doubt.
And then you love me, when I think,
Love is something, I can live without.

You treat me so gentle & wipe my tears,
But when you are angry, it's you who I fear,
But then you come & serenade me for a dance in a crowd,
And then you love me, when I think,
Love is something, I can live without.

When the dawn breaks, to see me is your need,
But when you do, you try to pay no heed.
By the noon, the tempers shoot-up & we scream & shout,
And then you love me, when I think,
Love is something, I can live without.

We fight & we decide never to talk,
But when you see me low,You hug me & take me for a walk.
And then things turn to hugs from pouts,
Cause, you actually love me & then I think,
Love is something, none can live without.

Letter from Nani


Hi all...

Well, my Nani went through my blog recently and sent me a letter regarding the same.
I am very honoured and delighted to receive such words of affection and praise from her.

Here they are....

Went through your beautiful poems a few days back. Sorry not to appreciate them earlier. Really masterpieces of fine imagery. A spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings. Inspiring great happiness and heartfelt pleasure. The poems reminded me of my sixty years back joy and experiences, while going through Wordsworth, Byron, Shelly & Keats in my text book 'The Golden Treasury' at my graduation level studies.

I really enjoyed your thought provoking ideas, imagination, high class vocabulary and philosophical thinking, hidden artistically in your poems. May God bless you with much more talent in this field. Being an engineer in your career, the Almighty may add many more feathers in your cap. I am proud of my grand daughters like you.
Long live all the grannies :))

Love you naniji :)
