Books

A parallel universe

A whole new world

Story within a story

Love in love

You make life more colourful

You add red to the blush

I shed tears when you cry

I open my wings when you fly

I fall when you fall

I die when you die

I live in you more

then I live in my life

I was and I will always be

Yours truly forever

G For Gossip

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

Gossip

“who what
How when

she said"

G Gossip

I love Gossip..lots and lots of it. But I am interested in hearing things about things and people more than talking about it.

What about you? Do you gossip?....Common honest reply I want!

Music Of Nature

Music in the air

Music every where

I dance..I hop

I jiggle and I pop

I sing aloud,

And I hum in my breath

I hear the sound

I feel the rhythm

I don’t know

How to stop

May be I don’t want

to stop

I jive and I rock

I jiggle and I pop

To the music

The music of nature

Look at the trees

All green and grooving

Kissing the wind

And hugging the sun

Swaying to the tune

Of being one

with the nature

Each leaf is glowing

Each flower is smiling

Each branch is jiving

Not willing to stop

They shiver and they rock

To the music

The music of nature

Look at the birds

All cheerful and lyrical

One danced on the tip toe

One sang

One crooned

And one bowed

All poignant in rhythm

All cruising together

Forming a bond

Coloring the sky

Soaring and roaring

Moving and grooving

They jiggle and they lock

To the music

The music of nature

Look at the rainbow

So pure, so white

So colourful

Yet so light

Each color embodying the next

Each color filling the raindrops with zest

Each color sparkling

Each color absorbing

The melody of raindrops

The harmony of all white

And the peace of all colors together

Each color singing

Each color wiggling

To the sound of pitter patter

To the voice of nature

They cuddle and enfold

They form and they mould

To the music

The music of nature

(C) Juztamom
This is playing as a song in my mind even right now. I wish I knew how to write music. I would have written and saved the tune forever with the words.

F For Failure

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

"Falling off the slide

Last at finish line

Lesson learnt"

F Family

F for failure is A-Okay. Why not? Every failure, every fall teaches us something. Most importantly you learn the importance of getting up and trying again after falling down. I have tried my best to instill this in my 5 year old and as both of them grow up I hope I am able to erase any fear of failure from their minds. Failure is okay!

Even as a mother as much as I want to, I am not perfect. I fail in so many things but I try to never give up. Trust me this is a tough role for me. It is so much easier to become a parent than actually being one. I fail, I reflect, I learn and I move on. Failure is A-Okay!

Secretly we spoke

I peep through the door secretly

If there is a future for we

But you hardly spoke

What you said was this and that

Nothing worldly nothing wise

If we were supposed to be one

Why were you not asking more and

Why were you not looking for me?

I waited through the cages for you and I

Didn't you hear what my heart said

I won’t believe what your words tell

I won’t believe what others tells me

All words are empty like the-

Hidden doors of secrets

Life is made of

Or like the

Golden confines of world

I ask him to break the shackles and he

Shocked but awed said

Shhh

Why break confines, let

Chains be chained to silence

Don’t ask don’t tell

It is us, I and you

We define what are the

Confines or secrets

Our world is made of

Not the

Walls, Bars, norms, Religion, Preachers of the world!

(C) Juztamom

Shared with NaPoWriMo. The prompt was to write a golden shovel. I have used the following work by Rumi for my poem:

"Secretly we spoke,

that wise one and me.

I said, Tell me the secrets of the world.

He said, Sh... Let silence

Tell you the secrets of the world"

Love

What is love

Lost in loved one’s eyes

Unified at heart

Unified at heart

Left alone again in obscurity

That is love

That is love

When I bawled your name

But god came

And god came

When I couldn’t find you

I found love

E for Efficiency

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

Efficiency

"Plane goes woosh

Monkey does a boogie 

Dinner done"

E Efficiency

Dinner time is a time that makes me most efficient. It is the time that is just before sleep time. Sleep time for kids is officially party (READ writing) time for Mumma. So this mom is willing to do anything for a happy healthy meal. Stories, aeroplane bites, flying spoons, dancing like a monkey...just anything that will make my younger one sit at one place and eat. 

Have you encountered this if you are a parent? Or have you seen any other parent do something crazy just to feed their kid? What is the most efficient system you have seen?

Shoed

Red, yellow, orange and blue

I love all colors of you

Oh yes,

Call me crazy but

I have been shoed

The naughty smile

The mysterious wink

The high highness

The smoothen pink

You add to my life

You give me wings

You are my love

I love you old and new

Oh yes,

Call me crazy but

I have been shoed

The shade of white

Standing tall and proud

The wicked bow

On painted dented twirling toes

The screech and halt

The straps and bolt

The more I get

The more I want

I lost the count after hundred and two

Oh yes,

I love all colors of you

And I have been shoed

  

I walk, I jive

In you

I run and dive

With you

You are a part of me

You make me free

You hold me tight

You let me be

You are my attitude

You are my mood

I live in you

And you let me brood

I can’t live without you

Yes,

I have been shoed

The more I get,

The more I want

I am really

Really into you

Oh yes,

I love all colors of you

D for Duck

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

“flying objects

Duck and Dodge

aliens are here”

Day 4 D Dodge

We play like crazy. I am weird and my kids love crazy and weird. So one of the easiest game I could devise was to throw things at each other and run like maniac in the house. This is something that we do almost daily and this is one of the reasons why our kids' bedroom looks war struck.

So when was the last time you really let go and did something crazy? Don't you feel more alive just by letting go?

Kiyohime

Tearing down your heart

Split wide open

With my claws deep sunken

In your blood

In your heart

I taste your blood

I taste you

Each piece that I tear

Belongs to me

Each cry that you whimper

Belongs to me

That heart and its entire lush

Belongs to me

You filled your soul

with all my might

then threw me away

and let me die

I died so I could live

I live now

So you could die

The horror of me

In your face

Is like thousand births

The trail of red

Fills the empty gut

That was left empty

When you left me

I look at the red

Splattered everywhere

Is it enough

To cover my pain

Is it enough to make me

Me again

Maybe not

But it is enough

To let you die

To let you see death

Coming close to you

Second by second

Cut by cut

Claw by claw

Sob by sob

It is enough to

Quench my thirst

Douse my fire

Soak my burns

But nothing will ever

Make me feel me again
