How a Random Thought Becomes a Song
Sometimes a thought appears out of nowhere—soft, fleeting, almost forgettable. But when you pause and hold it gently, it transforms. A random feeling becomes a single beautiful line, a line that suddenly carries more weight than you expected. Soon, that line attracts memories, emotions, and rhythm. It finds companions. A stanza forms—not because you forced Continue reading

The Eternal Journey of the Brahmaputra
Born in the shadow of the Pamirs, where the great mountain ranges of the world converge, a river begins its journey. It carves its way through the formidable Himalayas, moving from the land once ruled by Qin Shi Huang to the ancient realms of the Indus. The Brahmaputra—son of Brahma—flows with an unmatched majesty, nurturing Continue reading

I am Silence
Sometimes, it is not in noise but in silence that we find life’s deepest truths. In our fast-moving world, we often overlook the quiet spaces, the pauses, and the stillness. Yet, these are the moments that often reveal the most. As I reflect, I realize how much silence has taught me: In moments of silence,I Continue reading

A Walk through Nature
Sometimes, the deepest joy comes not from doing something grand, but from simply walking—quietly—through nature. The trees don’t ask who you are. The wind doesn’t judge.

Wrapped in Fog, Touched by Peace
Some days, I feel like the mist—soft, quiet and everywhere at once. I don’t belong to one place. I drift. I settle where I’m needed, then move on. This thought came to me this morning. As I looked out at the blurred edges of the world, I felt a strange peace. Everything was slower. Softer. Continue reading

The Quiet Weight of Grief
Poetry has always been a refuge for emotions too complex for simple explanation. In writing my poem, O My Heart!, I found myself reflecting on my own encounters with loss. Perhaps, in some way, we all carry the weight of an unseen sorrow—one that shapes us, but does not define us. O MY HEART!What is Continue reading

Warmth of Love
Warm spring bathed the floor;Sheer curtains fluttered inward,The breeze, constant and mild.Your back towards me,And eyes lost in the distant mountains,Where lilies washed the horizonIn a collage of myriad hues.How wonderful the sight was—Not the horizon, nor the spring;But you,And the loveThat you are my truth.And you walked in,Towards me;The curtains parted,The breeze sneaked in,As Continue reading

A Reflection on Life’s Transience
Nothing owns anything. We pass through life, inhabiting moments, places and identities, but never truly possessing them. This realization is both humbling and liberating—a reminder that we are mere tenants in this grand existence. There is a certain agony in understanding that nothing lasts forever. The excruciating pain of bewilderment, loss and defeat can feel Continue reading
