The Bubble

Solution stirred
Froth formed
Blow into it, and i take form..
Fragile though, a full circle form.

Glistening in the colors of the rainbow,
Dancing with the ways of the wind !!

But touch me not, nor blow me hard.
Here this while, shall be gone the next.
For your one caress, or your one whisper,
Shall spell my end forever.

Here's t a while, i shall cry
Before getting lost to the nothingness of time.

You shall tread ahead,
Just a bubble , you said.
A moment there, the next its gone,
But for the bubble,forever she's dead...

Just Dropped by (again)

this friend of mine once called me " geeli mitti".. hindi for "wet clay".. and i proceeded to explain," Anyone can mould you into whatever they want you to be-you need to be strong and learn to say no to people..the world can be a cruel place "..

Amazed at how true this stands today.......

Knock Knock.. Here Comes Winter

Woke up this morning with a fresh positivity that i'd been deprived of all through October. October wasnt kind 2 me..I'm sure Nov will be..

Ran to change the calender sheets to NOVEMBER, before anyone else did.. wow!just that made me feel victorious- and why not, I'd mercilessly shooed away dreadful October !!

With November, I declare winter's arrival too.. it isnt even cold yet, not even mildly cool.. but so what, I'm the Queen of my psychology, and i decide when winter begins.. there is something wonderful about the season..In love with it completely..

1. love that winter glow,early in the morning.. i dunno how, but somehow u actually turn 2 look really radiant and pristine after a good winter nite's sleep.. don't believe me?? check out for yourself..run 2 the mirror first thing in the morning!





2. love the massive bedspreads, fluffy fleeces, warm comforters, heavy blankets that seemingly crush u under their weight- love 'em.. the heavier the better





3. love woollens.. oversized pullovers (love my nails barely peeping out from the sleeves..;) ), fitted sweaters , warm socks, carpet slippers- somehow it makes me feel so huggable!!





4. love the complacency winter infuses into me.. though dad n mum get pissed off with me when i become complacent.. specially when it comes 2 taking a shower.. not that i don't like taking a bath.. its just like winter makes life feel easy-paced... "isra take a shower- what's the hurry mama" kinda attitude!





5. love physics for once!! why take pains to love the entire subject, maybe i just love what static electricity does to your hair and woolies- the crackles, the sparks, the works !!





6. love the fact that the sun spares me a few months of tanning.. most people are delighted to see the sun in winters..ahemm...no thanks, i have no plans of joining your occassional winter sun baths!





7. love the layer over layer of clothes hiding any sign of fat/ flab that may be.. If someone calls me fat in winters all I need say- I'm thin beneath my layers!





8. Its when i get 2 wear all my oversized clothes... their "oversize" gets hidden under vibrant woollens





9. I'm not much a dog lover really, but I'm terribly in love with those lil pugs n poodles in funny "dog jackets" and "checked sweaters" fruitlessly trying to keep pace with their masters !!





10. love the colours of winter- deep misty blue and frosty white..
    




11. love food in winter... its when u realise how good warm food tastes..unlike in summers,when everything around you is warm!! plus there's this delicacy called nihari, usually made in winters.. n believe me,its amaaazziiing!!



12. love that slight shivering, the involuntary jaw movements, the sound of teeth trembling against each other.. as if u've just been switched to a vibrate mode!



13. love curling up into a warm corner.. makes me feel like a soft ball of wool.. reminds me of 1day old chicks digging among themselves to find their sweet spot..



14. love my kuppa.. freshly brewed,steaming hot ethiopian coffee.. keep my hands wrapped around the hot mug for as long as it warms up my hands!!



15. doesnt snow at my place ... though i'd have loved it if it did.. :)
