Learning Curve

Life takes us on a ride that may not be swift often. Every turn we take putforths lot of surprises and challenges. Coping up with these ups and downs redefines and shape us. As a writer I started my journey with slow and steady steps. My path often had many distractions making the ride bumpy and slippery. The zeal of learning new things sustained the spark of writing alive and resisted me to tumble. At last my determination made me victorious. I believe my strength lies in constant learning lessons and experiences I keep gaining in this beautiful journey as a writer. The more we learn the more our strengths multiply...

Leisurely I step

Paved long path with minor steps

Oily feet slither

Nebulous yet consistent

My determination wins

Salubrious Monsoon - #MonsoonDiaries

I would dedicate a day for the monsoon showers as its freshness imbibes me with enthusiasm to move ahead, to grow, to evolve.

When monsoon tiptoed

Jubilant saplings yelled

Tiny tendrils cheer

Everything fresh and pristine

Amplify positive strength

Quick Reminder - Haiku

Half year soon approached

Some more challenges to face

Everything half done

Slips from hand like sand

Wake up its time to arise

Quick reminding bell

Grab the valuable time

Lapsed time can never come back

Serene everywhere

But not my unrest heart though

Captivates my mind

Humanity will erase

Darkness from beautiful world
