Some childhood poetic outburst

These are two of my very old poetries which I wrote while I was in school. It was when I was preparing for my boards and was isolated at home to study for the D-Day. The silence outside churned a new conversation within me and below are some instance of those:

Keep Smiling

" A crooked line on your face;
Enclosed sweetly in a brace
Lits the face as bright;
As moon shines in a star lit night.

Transmits warmth in others heart;
And sweetens all corners turned sour,
Melts the roughness between foes;
As the warm sun melts the toughest snow.

When all round trapped in stress;
All say it works the best,
Unties every knots of thoughts;
As rain releives the earth blown hot.

When seen on a child's face;
It looks like God's grace,
Take my advice and tie a knot;
"Keep Smiling,it helps a lot"."

In arms of past.......

When eyes go drowsy;and nights go calm,
When stars go twinkling;midst the cloud,
My thoughts travel down the path....
And I; drift away in my past.
With twinkling eyes and sizzling dreams;
I used to think;"I am a born queen",
Mother's love and father's care;
Made my little world glare,
Dolls were my little friends;
In whose hairs; my hours would blend,
Wondered why the rain should fly;
When the colorful rainbow did arrive,
Tried hard;to hear the Moon say "Hello!";
Wanted to make the clouds my pillow.
Then gently I feel the patting of wind.....
Which takes me to the world of dreams,
I wish I could stay there.....
Like a little doll;with careless hours.

An ordinary day with an extraordinary evening

It was a weary day. My work was still haunting me at all places. Everywhere I went I could find trace of my incomplete TODO's.Kitchen was shouting to be cleaned, clothes howling for laundry, carpet could not breathe in dust and every other thing was complaining.Phew! No peace for my little soul.
I just wanted to break out of all this and breathe back life to get things better. I thought gym should be a good resort to press the pause button of my mind and just stop thinking for some time. As I always say, mind is a chatter box and always finds a reason to constantly churn so many unwanted thoughts.
Leaving everything in same state I just dressed up and headed towards my gym. It was 7 pm by the time I could get myself in shoes. With my IPod plugged in I steadily moved to my gym which is hardly 5 minutes walking from my home and still I make it just once in 5 days!Well, music made it a bit better but strangely I noticed my mind was getting immune to music. It was still singing in between and reminded me of my laundry list.Finally I made it to treadmill and got myself moving.
"Aditi, you are too tired to run for more than 5 mins", exclaimed my inner voice. "You have so much to do, how can you spend 15 mins on this!" and it continued.... Oh my! I feel there is a small devil building resistance system in me.
Ignoring all this I could manage to persist for 20 minutes. Could not go further with my legs ringing it's alarm as I had troubled them after weeks or the same resistance system.
I just moved out of gym and found it to be bright and sunny outside even at 7:30 pm. God had started his windmill and there was a wave of cool wind easing me off my sweat.I moved ahead with legs heavy but it felt better with my blood running faster in me trying to pump in some fresh supply to my wearied mind. It was certainly better now but the best was still to come.
While I was heading home, a certain feeling stuck me and I wanted to visit the park behind my home. I had no clue what motivated me to walk the extra miles but I just moved on till I reached there.
It was refreshing and a pleasant scene to view. With sky changing its color to scarlet red, the grass so perfect green and trees dancing as intoxicated with the winds. There were kids playing with their dad's and some teenagers giggling and having fun with the carelessness of youth. I eventually got infected with the fun and peace there and found myself smiling, my mind fresh and my heart happy! I started strolling round and could finally feel my thoughts entangling. It was a moment worth the time I gave it. I suddenly felt the urge of jogging and my legs happily co-operated. As I jogged, it got even better as the wind was making rooms in my hair and washed away all sweat from my face.It was euphoria, feel of mirage or even better, with no better words I can find in my limited vocabulary.
I guess it was one of the best thirty minutes of my life and nature helped me renew back life. I was back home with a quite brain and peace all around. Carefully I lifted my pending TODO's and also managed to wite this blog :).
Now, I know where to go when I start getting out of touch of myself.
