What am I?


Related image

I am sparkling stardust
A shimmering spangle of colours
Glimmering in the twilight sky

I am the froth of the calm waves
And the raging ripples of thunder

I am one among the
Vibrant solar washes of aurora
Of cosmic brilliance and eternity

I am the voice of a roaring lioness
Standing on a boulder, head held high
That bellows through the quaint hills
And the hushed tranquil skies

I am love, joy and hope
I am chaos, confusion and anxiety

I am warm sunshine and leisure
I am bitter lightning and thunder

I am a tree of loving warmth
With caring arms to embrace
I am the crest of the mighty waves
That crash and shatter into several droplets

I am the very pinnacle of the skies
I am the very core of Mother Earth

I am the magical note of music
That leaves a tender twinge in your heart
I am the tiny droplet of rain
That mirrors the entire Universe

I flush with bursts of energy
And seldom remain lifeless

For I am a poem, one that is incomplete
Scrawling and erasing words
For I am a song, one that is eternal
Listening to snatches of the melody within

I am a unique blend of dynamic colours
I am beyond definition
I am the Universe
I am me.

Baby footprints on time

Hello readers! Here's some really exciting and heartwarming news - Fledgling is turning one! No matter how many things we have done or achieved, those 'first-times' always capture a special place in our hearts. That first-time element is what drove me to write this thoughtful letter to my soul. This post marks one of my most emotional moments, hitting a new milestone with my most cherished partner in this journey, my dear Fledgling. It's been a year since we hatched open, taking a first glimpse of the outside world as soft sunshine peeked in at dawn. Now, before we knew it, we had started flying across the cliffs! It has been an amazing roller-coaster ride this year, definitely not one without potholes and bumps. But the thrill of turning one with something I hadn't even considered urges me to write more and more, as thoughts and feelings gush through. This journey has been a passionate one and we have also remarkably improved over the months of over ...

A Culinary Escapade!

We quickly hop off our scooter at Chellas Kitchen as the warm sweet smell of desserts and noisy crackling of fries in the oil drag us to the cafe. We go and our eyes forage for snacks to order on the menu.  Located right in front of Oak Tree on the OMR, this seems to be a hotspot among desperate dieters to satiate their cravings with healthy options like vegan and gluten-free stuff to snack on. We are perplexed seeing so many varieties of exotic teas they outnumber the snacks that they are known for. Our eyes fell upon the Peri-Peri fries, cheese balls and "Fried milk" (what the owner proudly beams at and calls their signature dish). FRIED MILK!? We were blown away at the mention of the delicacy that seems to be the rage among youngsters. We had made up our minds - we had to try it. Soon the fries and cheese bombs arrive, crackling hot. These make the perfect warm treats for your tastebuds' cravings on a rainy evening. Though the fries and the seasoning fail ...

Simplicity of truth

Hello everyone! Do you believe in miracles? Well, I didn't until last week. So read on to know my story. Just a couple of days ago, I had my first book fair experience and unexpectedly bumped into some of my favorite authors and orators. My eyes scanned every stall for the novels I had listed the day before and for the posters I had wanted for my bedroom. I did manage to get my hands on a couple of novels at Penguin and many other publications but only after a few hours did the magic happen! Notionpress' contest rush notice somehow caught my eye and I instinctively walked in to enquire on that. That's when I met my now-mentor Ms. Meera Barath, the mind behind Mayaakatha, an engrossing collage of thought bubbles. I had no idea she was an author, so I walked up to her and told her that I was searching for a new writer to explore and whether she could help me find some. That's when she took me to the stand where several copies of Mayaakatha were placed. S...
