You Inked Me : Teachers Day Poetry

Little hands she held strong

Composed calm with care along

Soothe doleful eyes, which were little afraid

Searched everywhere for a friendly face 

Away from home for the very first time

You inked in me faith with a smile      

                 

Soon she sang a sweet song

Made funny faces as I stood along

Feathery hands wiped my dripping tears

Made every effort to make me cheer

Away from home for the very first time
You inked in me cheerful chime

The beatific face made me learn

Values rich and wise patterns

My quizzical expressions well answered by you

Made to understand with easy clues

Away from home for the very first time

You inked in me lessons for a steady mile

You taught me to share my things

How to take care for every little thing

You helped me to standout in crowd

Correcting my faults and cheering loud

Away from home for the very first time

You inked in me confidence to walk with pride

My kindergarten teacher I cannot forget

Deep down I want her to imitate

Every single day I pray for you

You were there always as a motherly hue

My little world was filled with pride

When You inked my future bright.

Wishing all teachers a very "Happy Teachers Day", you all are imbibing values deep in heart and your words and actions are inked deep.

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

रियो में भारत की धाक

रियो ने किया ओलंपिक का आगाज

बनाने खेलों के सरताज ,

चलो चलें जलवा दिखाने 

खेल के अद्भुत मैदान में । 

सीखने सिखाने की बारी आई

कुछ कर जाने की लौ जलाई ,

बरसों की मेहनत अब हैं छलकानी 

दृढ़ता से हर बाजी हैं खेलनी । 

डटकर खड़े है सारे खिलाड़ी खास

भारत की आज जमानी है धाक ,

आओ लहरा दे तिरंगा गर्व से

कठिन परिश्रम के सुन्हेंरे रंग से । 

करोड़ों दुआएँ होगी तुम सब के साथ

बस मन मे रखना संपुर्ण विश्वास ,

प्रदेश के हीरो अब स्वदेश मे हुनर दिखाएँगे

तिरंगे को ऊँचे स्तर पर अवश्य लहराएंगे ।
