THREE KNOTS, TREES YOU NOT !!


Marriage meant nothing to me, until it happened to some one very close....
Hitherto, I defined marriage as
a place that unites ppl,
a venue where you can meet your clan/chums/new persons ,
where we get to know each other
munching a few sweets,
drinking a payasam till brim,
Breaking the pappads to pieces
And dipping a crispy vadai in Hot sambar!!



It never seemed as - "New Life with a New person, (Sometimes with one You haven't even met ) "
Misconceived assumptions and funny notions wither away, only when it happens to you or someone close to you...And the latter is the case here!!

I'm writing this poem upon the request of my best friend who's getting married soon when August shuts the door and paves way for September!!!


The First of september,
I Knew,
Its, something new
For you!
Where smiles go blue!
And new conditions starts rule...


Where Loud laughs
 will be replaced by small chuckles and little chortles !
Where, Even skinny gals will be wrapped around
lengthy sheets called Saree!
 & Short pony tails are twisted and turned
to make twiggy plots...


Granny will say-
Bow your head
Naana will say -
Stick eyes to ground
Mommy calls it tradition
I call it aberration..!
Chums chirp, it's Promotion
Only I Knew ,it's Premonition


It's a new state a gal ever face
Where silence is taken as acceptance
And smiles are taken as shyness...
It's a new state
Where every kiss
has a Bliss
behind it....


Marriage is not just three knots that trees you to unknown spots,
It's where husbands cuddle their wives
With lot more affection!!
It's where mother-in-law well up her eyes
With blissful tears!!
It's the place that gives birth to emotions
 Shattering all commotions!!
And that's where House becomes home
Home becomes heaven!!
Bcoz of every women!!
Here I Wish the proud woman of my life
A Happy Journey
and
A Happy married Life !!

The Ring that rings around without a wing

Escaping the Mechanical Maze & Reconnecting with Nature at Dharamkot

  Escaping the Mechanical Maze & Reconnecting with Nature at Dharamkot Your dearest writer writing from the most beautiful place in Northern India. This blog post captures the transition in the perspective of someone who travelled from a monotonous mechanical world (with 9–8 job) to a beautiful, serene hilly place where the only sound you could hear is bird chirps, cow’s moos, breeze-filled rains, and soft storms & absolute calmness. For someone whose day starts amidst a chaotic environment with instructing an ever-shouting maid and grumpy cook, while trying to come to fullest sense even at 8 am in the morning, only to struggle and find her office stuff lost amidst a messy house; And somehow finally getting ready while still parallelly attending a 9 am meeting, and pushing the so-called breakfast down her throat, so she could get stuck and travel like a headless chicken amidst countless others in a scorching 38 deg weather with full on traffic, where she sweats endlessly t...

When I Painted My Hair Red...

Image
I ruffled through the pages of my diary to figure out when was that moment in history when I made that quirkiest decision of my life. the one I have always been wanting to take. Not for one, two years, but for ages I could remember Painting my hair Red. To be honest, the color wasn’t pre-decided. It was anything far from black. And one I wouldn’t regret. But for someone with this desire to color the hair for ages, I hardly made a search to finalize on the precision of vibrancy. I did one thing which 93.45% girls do. Ping BFF. I pinged my best friend who should at least by then block me for my incessantly pinging her and bothering amidst her regular chores. Red may look good on you, she said sharing a few pics, which I took exactly to the bestest salon in the city of Chennai. Trust me, as someone having a hair of good texture (Well, not bragging, if anything I would only tie it to heredity, the fact that everyone in my family has it, from grandfather till granddaughter), the ...
