A Nostalgia...



First shower, when the drops embracing the gravity, dropped flat dissolving with the soil. The soil changes its shade with the frequency of the drops. The air which was dusty wind till now converts into aroma, fragrance, which I wish I could store in empty jars, the fragrance which being mild have the power to kill many perfumes. Empty streets with parked vehicles, with those dripping trees, every drop shines in it trueness in those street lights.
The season wearing different clothes. The mercury shrinks, as the count of showers increase, the layers of coolness is added. The shades of sky get heavier, with that greenery taking uproot even in unwanted places, unexpectedly. There are many memories with this seasonal change with a sense and remembrance of smell.
Every old thing is been evaporated with burning summer and there is a new view all around. 
I never liked crawling the path to school (nor to college) but the reason which made me walk were those new things, which I got at the beginning of the new grade. That bag which roars the taste of the superhero's, that raincoat which defined the adoring shade, which had a plastic aroma even using it after a long break. 
Those books were never good for me but, smelled pretty perfect and covering them even by knowing that they are going to uncover the marks, subjectively.  Flipping those pages, not for the knowledge but rating the interest and entertainment of the subject with picture count. 
Not just things but some humans too had an impact, a fear with a new grade that the one whom we wrote essays and letters of the best friend last year will he be sharing the same class or bench this year, and if not then waiting for that interval after hours of lectures. Some even not being friends they were close since their mother took good care of the taste and stomach in their boxes. The first day was always beautiful no workload, so extra hours to play, no worry for shoes so jumping on that puddle and running over the large one.  Life was then operated with the number of friends, not by the number of cash.  Broken toys, undone homework, and upset friends were much better than today's stress of even done work, broken heart and fake peoples. 
That fresh first shower has hidden in the dust of memory. We have come ahead running an unknown race, which is never going to end. Unless we realise that the life is a journey, not a destination.

A Holi-Day...

Different shades, difficult to understand,  some pretty, some dark, some light,  but they never fade.  Life is white with simplicity and black with pain sorrow  for those who have their brain's narrow. It's harder but life is beyond monochrome,  with full of colour to different mood who have their mind's broader. Not for just this day rather but for a whole. The feel for colours reflects on that face with that smile.  The roar a pleasure the colour is just an excuse,  it is the touch of our loved ones and they make this day use. The significance sings high victory on that lie. The flames make the wishes fly and  the smoke makes them reach the sky. Believe is what have kept it alive. For some, it is beyond those colour a story of pride, a day so thin but those memories stay wide  till colours escape the skin May this day shower the colour all your life  Wish you all a Happy Holi...

A Seabed...

Racing the rotation of wheels. Making it early, to be safe from the rays of that raised temperature, a thick hide from the sun. Yet, we were running late. Hunger striking hard in the middle of the way, where the maximum distance was yet to be measured.  The far the eyes went was the sky welded without any joint with water.  The blue hue of the sky reflected sharp on the water. But the shade was darker when we got in. Shoes stuffed tight but were placed right. Naked feet making the impression by disturbing the sand.  The initial of letting the feet taste water was changed with a spark. The sand looked prettier when it was beneath the feet but not when you were beneath it, with your clothes. Even not when it becomes hard to dust it out from the skin and dripping clothes. The dive, the fight with those waves revealed strong. The buds, cells were flavoured salty. The impression of the feet was blown away as that of many others. The unintelligent...

A tea tour...

Tears of the noon of the past year rolled down through cheeks at the dawn of the new year. When the chilling breeze pierced eyes without hurting the dreams. Such dreams are the needs like dew on the grass of all the desired wants. First sunrise of the decade after two odd months. There was nature, with drama and short of time. Nothing was special, neither great not luxurious, expensive except for one. Resolution was unknown, the reality was faded, the expectation was routine home headed. Default to the season sleeping was the reason, not when experiences were best, why to imagine the rest. Sweetness overflowed, salt was missing from those, defaulters, everything else came softer. Everything started where some had ended something. Where reality dreamt of living like us someday. From bad omen to sight, of owl’s flight, even the spirit of jungle dint thought of disturbing, when the voodoo doll was the knight. Time was, a handful of dissolving sand yet, in every particle a me...
