R For Repulsed

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

kitchen smells of old socks

tea tastes like toothpaste

animals can’t be tamed

R Repulsed

I never thought I will end up living with so many boys. Now that I am, life is a little different and a lot difficult. Things are never in their place and a lot of things end up in my food. I have had so many flavors of tea that I won't know from where to start and where to end, most common is mint flavored (with toothpaste). But I refuse to give up. Agree animals can't be tamed but as Mr. Pi Patel (From Life of Pi) rightly said " But animals can be trained"!! (Well in his case it was the tiger and  I have monkeys)

How much of an animal are you? And do you enjoy mint tea...if yes do stop by sometime! :D :D

Let Me Be

Let me walk at my own pace

Let me grow as I want

Don’t make me grow up fast

Let me grow up first

I have yet to learn the A,B,C of life

Don’t make me learn it by heart

Let me live it and learn it

I promise I will never forget

I promise I will always remember

All the important lessons

That I learn through life

Not just learn by heart

I want to run, jump and slide

I want go up and up on the ride

The green grass and the muddy bush

Let me play there a little while

Please don’t hold my hand and push

Let me walk a little mile

On my own

Let me fall

Let me get up

On my own

Let me learn the lessons

Lessons I promise I will never forget

That I learn through life

Not just learn by heart

Come walk with me

The roads are dirty

But they are full of fun

Come be my friend

Keep me sturdy

Be my sun

I promise I will shine

Through your light

I promise I will be a bright star

May be not as bright

As some other star

But as bright as I could learn

AS bright as you let me learn

I promise I will always keep the light

I promise I will always shine

I promise I will remember everything

That I learn through life

Not just learn by heart

Shared with NaPoWriMo. The prompt was a challenge to write a poem in the voice of a member of your family. This poem is on behalf of every child I know. I wish we let the kids be kids for some more time before we pressure them to be a part of any rat race.

Tiny Flares

I look at your tiny flares

Wrapped and frozen

Waiting for the loved one

To remove the layers,

One by one

To come close

And taste

Heaven

I hold my breath

And kiss you with close eyes

I run my lips along

Your contour and lines

My mind explodes

Unleashes myriad emotions

My heart skips a beat

When it tastes your passion

I swirl my tongue

And hungrily devour you

I wait for heart to sing

And world to stop

I don’t want the night to end

I like it hot

For there is nothing better on a hot summer night,

than ice-cream

With strawberry on top

Lost

Lost in the woods

I walk barefoot

Dancing to your music

Chained and hooked

Before the sunrise

Before my birth and demise

I will open my wings and escape to you

Even if god defies

 

For you are my god, my religion

You are what is written and unwritten

On my forehead and my heart

Covered in you completely smitten

In your lust I am lost forever

In your wait I walk and I never,

Stop and look back, for what is left

Is lost forever

I keep falling, my pieces scatter

Drenched in my blood, they stagger

Leaving my prints, marking your name

Swaying to your tune, one by one, they clamour

I will walk till nothing remains but you

My pieces will fall till nothing remains, only you

And I become one

With you, all pious, all new

Senses

Sound of virtue

ringing in my ears

A rhythm of love

swarming with tears

Heart within my heart

 

Touching and touched

Reaching my core

Dancing glory

Aches and adores

Body in my body

Small and inexplicable

Vision of beauty

Filling my eyes

Completing me truly

My life in me

P Papa

From where do I start and what do I write about the role of my better half in my kids' life? I am at home and he goes out & works, so the amount of time he gets with the kids is much less but that doesn't make his role any less important. He is a hands on dad and his kids love him to death. I am blessed to have a life partner like him but more than that he is one of the best fathers I have ever seen.
I wrote something about him a few months back. Please do read it here.

Colors don't lie

The moon is green, envying

the orange of sea

when it merges with blue sun,

which carries the heart breaks of white earth

soaked in colorless ashes of,

 floating birds

wailing for dead bodies of trees, red

and blue with burns, and

bleeding black blood

Of humans as pure as white

Shared with NaPoWriMo. The prompt was to write a ten-line poem in which each line is a lie.

O For One Year

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

Innumerable friendships

countless creations

One year

O One year

Exactly one year back on 17th April 2013 I started blogging. Now 226 posts, 40000 footprints, million friends and zillion moments later I feel like the richest person in this world.

I dedicate this post to each and everyone of you. You have made my journey full of vibrant colors and eternal memories.

Also I would like to say a special thanks to Pankti, who was one of the first person to leave her prints on my blog. (The only person before her was a spam :P ). Do check out her blog here. She is an amazing writer and has become one of my closest friends in last one year.

Call Of Love

Burn me in your fire

Engulf me in your flames

Destroy me, be the pyre

Till nothing remains

But you and me

And our love sustains

The tides of sea

become the magical potion

That only lovers could see

And swallow swig by swig till their bosom

Overflow and explode

And fill the world with love golden

Etched in the sky like the sun glowed

(C) Juztamom

I nag

N Nag

I don't like it but I do nag a lot. I wish I would do it much less, I do try a lot but I fail miserably. Guess it goes with the territory. I promise myself almost daily but I fail also almost daily.

What about you? Do you nag? If yes which is the one thing that drives you most crazy?

Who Are You?

Who are you?

Why the quest?

Where do you belong?

What is your zest?

Why the questions?

Did you get the answers?

Did I tell you?

Didn't I tell you?

You are You, Nothing more nothing less!

Shared with NaPoWriMo. Prompt was to write a poem in which every sentence, except for the last one, is in the form of a question.
