For Aakanksha, on her wedding...

You are the heera of our family
Precious and pure
Abound with love, integrity and vitality
Happy you will keep Ron, of that we are sure.

Blessed with a heart of gold
You epitomise beauty with brains
After you, God broke the mold
Ron sure did pick the diamond from a million grains.

Enjoy this wonderful journey called marriage
Face each task with solidarity and courage
I wish you both happiness and love
Always stay together, hand in glove.

Congratulations!

Under the night's sky I lay                                                     
Thinking of my deeds during the day                                     
Same as I did when yesterday began                                      
Hoping to wake up a better man

Endless desert

Sun bearing harshly down

On donkey’s back

Door crack

Makes passage for

A sliver of light

Fading light

The silhouette of two lovers

Against the door

Early butterfly

Searching for flowers

Dances with snowflakes

Summer sky,

In the poppy fields

Children play

Moonbeams

Dancing on the river

As lovers kiss

Baked Earth,

Petricore in the air

Raindrops bring

The result season has begun well

Indicating that the markets are about to swell

Due to liquidity induced romanticism

We have also shed our pessimism

2012 has begun on a good note

Have fear though

The markets seldom give one a chance to gloat!

The Beginning...Happy Valentines Day Joey

The first time I saw you,
I felt something so new.

Your kindness and generosity I could see,
You struck a chord inside of me.

Barista was our first date,
30 minutes I was waiting, you were so late!

You were my first bike ride,
As you urged me to hold tight, I tingled inside.

I remember the long days spent in the library,
When studies were not in the least bit primary.

The auto rides to Ohris and Paradise,
Were a heady concoction of sweet and spice.

In love I think I was falling,
I was so afraid, couldn’t help stalling.

You took care of me, no strings attached,
That’s what drew me to you, completely unabashed.

And thus began our wonderful journey,
Of friendship, love and bon homie.

Irises in the Spring

Irises in the Spring,
Promises of color and joy you bring.
Leaving the frost and cold behind,
As the winter months begin to unwind.
Red, blue, purple and azure,
In the fields you stand so dainty and pure.
Time to bid adieu to the snow,
As the first irises of the season make my heart glow!

My Mommy Bestest!!!

Like a stream of Light
You brighten up the dark
Like a shooting star
You lift up our heart
With a stroke of your brush
You paint our life
You are the best mother, sister, daughter and wife.
