The task

Posted on August 28, 2020 by niyatiapril

The task was arduous

in some ways hazardous

the task was monumental

one could say even detrimental

but put on those shoes I must

my raincoat I readjust

the thunder didn’t phase me as much

as the thought of stepping in that mulch

Oh I wish I could stay indoor

going out seemed like a tiresome chore

but put on these boots I must

cause to these hunger pangs I must answer first

Like a fool I hadn’t stocked up on the groceries

If I had I wouldn’t have had such worries

So grabbing my bag I take a leave

A weary sigh I heave

As I trudge in the pouring rain

with every breath I battle the fierce terrain

Suddenly I stop, dead in my tracks, halfway to my destination

A thought crosses my mind, hit with a sudden realisation

I had taken all, but

I had forgotten my wallet.

Laurels of the past

Posted on August 17, 2020 by niyatiapril

Laurels of glory

knew not their folly

of raising a man

who with the passage of time becomes vainer

A cry for help from a grieving soul

when they were bestowed he was but a young foal

with ego his poor soul had become as black as coal

he thought he could own everyone

the ones who could defy him? hah! to him there were none

he was his parents pride and joy

since he was a wee boy

but all their love couldn’t have told

that this boy’s tale was one of woe

because he was unaware of this world

that would leave him aghast

for little did this boy know

that one cannot rest on the laurels of the past.

The tears flow

everytime I let myself go

It’s always going to follow me

It’s never going to just let me be

clouds of rain cover me

through the storm it gets hard to see

I find myself drowning again

I feel like a tragedienne

but inspite of all of this

I have a few

some of them who are new

thanks to them hope rises from within

they give me the strength to begin

a journey from the scratch

and from this recurring darkness I will detach

and someday set myself free.

Why?

Posted on July 21, 2020 by niyatiapril

A wise man once said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Rule 1: Don't lose your humanity - Corporate Commanders

in every shape and form moulded by the creator

Yet we discriminate

and look at certain people and hesitate

Why must we judge

and hold any unnecessary grudge?

Why must our souls see different

and pass cruel judgement?

Why can’t we simply accept

and keep our mean opinions burried 6 feet deep in a casket?

Why can’t we be kind

leave the past behind

and look out for each other

and hold love and respect for every sister and brother.

Singin in the Rain

Posted on April 6, 2015 by niyatiapril

tanvi

I am singin in the rain

just singin in the rain

what a glorious feeling

I am happy again !!

The above lines are from the song Singin in the Rain from the timeless Hollywood musical by the same name which is charming enough to cheer up even the most grumpiest of folks around! It’s a musical which I would place under the category of “sunshine flick” why ? simply because it has an effect on you similar to sunshine – it drives your blues away and lifts your spirits up ! 🙂

With a star-studded cast comprising Gene Kelly , Debbie Reynolds and Donald ‘O Connor its a spoof on the difficulty faced by movie makers and actors in the transitionary phase of cinema from, silent films to the talkies also there are some spectacular dance moves and melodious songs like ‘good morning’ and ‘beautiful…
