Round the corner

You may feel low,You may have had a blow,But dwell in hope,You’ll surely cope,Just round the corner,There’s dawn again and light,There’s sweet delight.Diwali’s the highlight.Declutter and decorate,Goodness let’s opt forEach and everyday, Kindness let’s celebrate.In each and every way.Diwali is a festivalOf lighting diyas,To drive away darkness,Not just of the Amaavas,But also the despairAnd focus

Question not

Question notThe past,Or the future.Answer not,The present.Let mysterious moments Mix and make A mojito of memories.

Vivid memories

We are all merely, A future memory.What sort of vivid one,Do we choose to be,Before we are done?Who ever you happen, To meet and to be with, Here and right now,Choose to be kind,Or quiet, if not loving.That’s how,They’ll remember you,Be kind to yourself too!

The other half of 2022 arrives

To sun-hot May,The summer-bringer,In days few,We bid adieu.How very soon,Arrives June,Along comes the monsoon,May the rains grace,Cool the land too,Welcome, ‘warm’ welcome,To the second half Of the year 2022.Lets remind ourselves,In New Year resolutionsWhat did we decide,But simply couldn’t do?Its never too late,Begin today,It’s still May.

Good morning

May all go well today.May troubles melt away.Wish you a bounceIn your step, Happy and childlike,May your heart sway.May the day be simpleMake you just smile,And show your dimple.

I have majored, 18 years in Muscat.

2004-present, a journey of joy.Back in 2004 I landed on 9th April, Good Friday, in Muscat.I now feel Muscat is in me as much as I am in Muscat, my beloved city.Thank you, Muscat,Thank you, Oman.

A beginner’s mind

I wish you, An idea new.I wish you,A beginner’s mind,No past to rewind.May your heart,Hold anticipation,And affirmation.May your eyes,Find more possibilities,Than see otherwise.Go ahead this week,Hopeful, not meek,Follow your dreamDoubt-free, Go, seek!I wish you smile,As you walk,Mile after mile,With a spring, In your feet. May soft petals be underneath your feet now and always.

Happy weekstart

May you stay focused, decisive, calm and meticulous this week.May things go your wayHave a creative week, A laughter-filled day.All will be well,All will get better.

Worth

As a thought visits,Check its worthAllow its presenceIf it is of positiveAnd of good essence.Worthless thoughtsYou must discard.A thought worthwhileIs the one that Brings you peace,Or a smile.

Heard?

Hush,Heard the whisper?A sound softer,But so much sweeter?Hush,Heard the whisper?A sound quieter,Yet so much truer?Hush,Heard the whisper?A sound fainter,Yet so much wiser?Hush,Hear the whisper:A sound, a murmur,That’s Softer,Clearer, Fainter,Sweeter,Truer,Wiser.Listen to your heart’s whispers today.

Chai, chai!

Choose to eraseThe negativity.Choose to eraseThe frown, The doubt, The grudge.The clocks tickReal quick,Let go the hurt,Choose responses Silent or sweet But not curt.Though thorns do prick,Choose not to cling tooLong to wounds and lick.With each sip of chai,Just one by one overwrite All negative memories,Recall moments light, Jovial and bright.Choose to overcome,Pain, pettiness, plightChoose
