Love cocoon

Shattering off-

A love cocoon,

A butterfly I'm,

Feeling now,

Free to hop,

From flower to flower,

To intercept and inhale,

The Love pheromones…

Into the flights,

All alone,

Where predators stay,

Eyeing on you,

To put an end,

The free rein…

They didn't know,

How I broke,

My love cocoon,

Only to become,

Resilient against,

The wind of foes,

And the flying daggers,

Just to overcome,

The enmity scorched…

When I loved you

In the world of billions,

Only one you are,

You are the story only,

I heard so far…

You are the music,

That touches my ears,

As if I'm listening,

Since ages and years…

I saved for you,

The air I inhaled,

To blow with feeling,

In the flute of love...

The source of power,

yes you are-

That keeps,

My heartbeat ticking,

To make me stand,

On my feet…

I can still reach you,

While completely blind folded,

Without meeting you-

In person,

I spent with you,

The whole vacation…

In search of true love

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into a rose,

With a hope of someone,

Will gift my fragrance,

As a token of love.

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into a drop of tear,

With a hope of someone,

Will wipe me off,

To console the inside.

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into the moonlight,

With a hope of someone,

Will take a walk,

While holding hands.

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into a candle,

With a hope of someone,

Will lit me up,

To illuminate desires.

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into a shoulder,

With a hope of someone,

Will rest on me,

And promise the future.

In search of true love,

I turned myself,

Into money,

With a hope of someone,

Will show me off,

To buy the comforts.

Gradually and gradually,

Nothing left in this world,

That I didn't,

Turn myself into,

In search of true love,

Just! in search of true love.

Leaving a conclusion,

For me I know,

Nothing like "true love,"

Exists in this world,

But exists only,

Two little things-

Either you love,

Or you don't!

If love is there,

The feeling is true always,

Then why we add,

The word 'true,'

Just before,

The word 'love?'

Poor word 'love,'

Can only contemplate,

On the alteration,

On the insecurity,

This I come to know,

When I turned myself,

Into the feeling of 'love.'

Now I can say,

Happily and proudly,

The title of this verse,

Should be,

'In search of love,'

Instead of,

'In search of true love.'

- With love Monu Awalla

Red rose- The other side

Poe-a-tree Hop- A Roy Durham initiative
Theme- Red rose

One day while wondering,
A red rose cried,
Seeing this,
I asked the flower,
Why are you crying,
Instead of feeling,
A heart full of pride?

Replying to me,
Said the red rose-
"People make me happy,
People make me sad,
They play with my meaning,
Like someone who is mad!"

The words seemed,
A riddle to me,
A riddle enough,
To put me at sea,
The red rose caught ,
My- 'Being puzzled,'
With voice so soft,
The rose explained-
"Let me tell you,
How I feel,
The thinking of people,
When I deal!

The story goes,
Like this my dear friend-
Once upon a time,
There were two friends,
A girl and a boy,
Named- Mary and Hanks,
They called themselves-
Best-best buddies,
And no one was like them,
In the whole paris!

Everyday I saw them,
Laughing and helping,
Together and happy,
Until one day,
Changed the whole parity!

Hanks- One day,
Came walking up to me,
To pluck me with joy,
Of gifting me to Mary,
I felt special,
I felt ecstatic,
As I knew the vibes,
Was not at all fanatic!

Finally!
The moment came,
The very next day,
When Hanks met Mary,
To display sweet-gesture,
Like the sweetness holds,
The red-red cherry!

With all the excitement,
With all the love,
He raised the hand,
To handover me,
Oh! I felt delighted,
I felt elated,
In overwhelming pleasure,
With infinite measure!

Before i could feel,
The warmth of love,
Mary slapped,
The innocent Hanks,
'I don't want to marry you,
Yelled Mary Jones,'
Then and there shattered,
All my pride,
Sending within me,
A wave of moans!

Heartbroken Hanks,
Replied gently,
'I didn't come here,
To propose you my dear,
I came to express,
My feelings so pure,
Towards our friendship,
For I know its special,
A relation to cheers,
A relation to wow,
Like this elegant rose,
I'm holding,
In my hand right now!'

The words melt,
Mary to ground,
Now the apology,
Looked very formal,
Since she knew,
She lost the faith,
Hanks put,
On their friendship,
Now no one can untie,
The knot tied,
By Mary in haste,
A knot between,
The sweetest of all relations,
Is no more remained,

Sweeter in taste!"

गीता! नाम में ही है एक सरगम

गीता! प्रेम और दोस्ती का संगम

गीता है भोलापन

गीता है अपनापन

गीता है प्यार

गीता है नटखट

गीता है चंचल

गीता है ज्ञान

गीता है सुर

गीता है ताल

गीता है संगीत

एक मधुर तान

गीता है अनुपम

गीता है मधुरं

गीता तो है केवल

निश्छल प्रेम

गीता है सुन्दरता

गीता है मित्रता

गीता जैसी कोई नही

वोह तो है बस गीता

A Friend So Special

I wish I was there,

In the world around you,

To see you smile,

To see the blink of your eyes,

For I know its so beautiful,

Like colorful butterflies.

Those who don't know,

The wonders of friendship,

Didn't meet you,

At all my dear,

For those who met,

Unconditionally know,

The hold of love,

The word carries.

A spark you are,

That enlightens,

Me from within,

An intimate friend,

Hard to find,

In the world of duals,

With current trend.

You are a realization,

Gentle and pure,

Like a midas touch,

In the life of others,

A drop of love,

Seeping through the soul,

So as to turn,

A man into a human.

Your friendship means,

A life in itself,

A ride of emotions,

I always loved,

But nothing I can say,

In these lines few,

An oceanic feeling,

Which I carried through.

दो दुनी चार- A poem dedicated to friendship

ये कविता एक प्यारी सी दोस्ती पर आधारित है I
दोस्ती चार दोस्तों की ( गीता ,सिमरन ,मोहिनी , मोनू )
जिसमे प्यार है , एक दुसरे का साथ है , विश्वास है , प्रकाश है ,एक महकती और खिलखिलाती जिंदगी की शुरुआत है , इस कविता के एक एक अंश मे बयान हुई हमारी कहानी हमारी ही जुबानी

तीन अलबेली, मस्त सहेली

जैसे पहेली, बडी अटखेली

-गीता

गीत जीवन का गायें हर पल

सिमरन प्यार का फैलाए हर पल

छा गयी इनकी मोहिनी दुनिया में

- मोहिनी

गीता के मीठे सुर

मोहिनी का स्नेह और प्यार

सिमरन की याद बन गया जैसे

एक प्यारा त्यौहार

खुशियों की बौछार

रंगोंका निखार

बन गया प्यारासा त्योहार

सिम मोहू और गीता का प्यार

-सिमरन

सिम्मो, गीत और मोहू की यारी

खुशियाँ हैं इसमें ढेर सारी

तीनों हैं प्यारी

तीनों हैं निराली

सब जाएँ इस यारी पे वारी - वारी

सिम्मो है जैसे कोई परी

गीत है जैसे कोई राजकुमारी

और मोहू है जैसे कोई रानी

नहीं हैं किसीको भी कोई हैरानी

क्योंकि इनकी दोस्ती है जानी – मानी

- मोनु

"A gesture of love"- (A true story of my friend)

Wandering one day,

A beautiful girl,

Around the place of lakes,

Out of all Rush,

She came from London,

Towards this placid region,

Where everything seemed,

No less than heaven.

For quiet a time,

She felt the touch,

Of an ambiance- calm and tranquil,

She behold the beauty,

Sometimes while wandering about,

Sometimes while standing still.

With her serene-filled eyes

She explored a cottage,

Surrounded by the green,

And while staring at it,

She saw an old lady,

Catching her sight,

Then and there,

The lady invited her,

Inside her lovely dwelling place.

Picking up the vibes,

Of a delightful greeting,

She stepped inside,

The cottage which looked pretty,

Where the lady welcomed her,

Like She is her own granny.

To pamper the girl,

In all the possible way,

She displayed the gesture,

Stuffed with love,

Which made the girl feel drenched,

In and out- under the love-shower,

Which Provided her an exquisite warmth.

The gesture of an old lady,

Left the girl contemplating,

Because the word "Thanks",

Proved to be a minnow,

In front of love,

The lady showcased.

When asked to her inner voice,

The girl came with an idea-

"Lets cherish the moment,

And make it more colorful"

Said the girl quietly to herself.

Without wasting a second,

She grabbed a paper,

And started sketching,

The whole surrounding,

Including the cottage,

Powered with an aura of love.

To add a brightful season,

She painted using water colors,

At last to garnish the sketch,

On paper then it looked,

A beautiful love-patch.

-Monu Awalla

(Note: The painting which I pasted above this poem is painted by the same friend of mine whom I mentioned in this poem and the cottage in the painting is the same which I discussed here)
