One of these days...

It’s been a while since….
I squished a juicy strawberry
Since… I Observed a Dragonfly with its own little halo made of light glinting off its jeweled wings
Since I Smiled at the funny gait of a wrinkled, cuddly elephant
Since I Indulged in candy-flavoured hues
Since I Thought of traveling across the world with a close companion, a camera, some cash and comfy clothes
Since I Felt this Heart-warming, glow-causing, lightness-inducing happiness
Since I Walked on Deserted roads lit with warm yellow lamps
Since I Witnessed a beautiful sunset… Few things must be as beautiful as a mellow colored sunset spent floating on water under the cold open sky
Since I Cried tears that satiated….tears out of being overwhelmed
Since I Read a great poem…that haunted me long after I read it
Since I Thought of ways to pep up my desk at work
Since I Curled up with a book in one of the warm welcoming cafes with the smell of freshly roasted coffee
It’s been a while since I squealed with delight
….Skipped down the street and ran against the wind
….Painted my toe nails
The simple life as we knew seems to beckon me !!!

I'm home :)

At the onset ..I apologise for vanishing without a trace..and Im not going to plunge headlong into what I have been doing for the past one year(not yet)..Thats cos I'm eager to post something that i dug out of the deep recesses of my inbox ( the stuff i indulge in and mail myself during office hours to record some of my insane moments)

I hear the distant voices 
calling out my name.
My body wakes to the sound 
of a life that I long to live.
The sheets slip by my waist,
and the world glimpses my pain.
The sun wants to shine 
his way to my bedroom;
I shy away 
behind the strands of my hair.
I tell him wait a lil longer;
let me sleep away today.
The blades of the ceiling fan
cut through my thoughts
The smell of a laid back morning 
cradles me in the womb of my bed.
And in my heart I hear the beat-
I am a phase,I live a dream
I long to love and live for real

P.S. I'm home :)
