Daydreams and castles floating in the air, Make believes that keep away despair. A soul lost in hoping forever. Let it go, she is told. But not to the dead does life unfold? So, there were mixed reactions when I wrote this one; veering on two extreme ends. Want you to comment what you think…

The Treasure Chest
This is all I have today, a chest full of longing. Wondering, wandering, in search of what’s gone. Why is everything empty?Wish you would come,and together we could fill itwith the treasures of happiness and laughter…one more time!
Valentine’s Day!
So, another Valentine’s Day got over yesterday. Social media was abuzz with romantic, thoughtful as well as sentimental messages asking to tag someone. The shops were decked red; loaded with teddy bears, chocolates, cards, balloons and all stuff mushy and the roses sold at double the price. The remnants of love are still in the…

Happy Friendship Day!
Happy Friendship Day! To the friends far away. You are in my heart and in thoughts too. Life wouldn’t be as wonderful as it is with you. Wish we were still closer, sharing as before. Hope this pandemic will soon be a lore. Wish you happiness and wish you well. And we stay bound with…
