Let Her Fly!



The eyes unfolded
To a world unknown,
The poise it beheld
Amazed galore.

Fumes of despondency,
"Who will take the legacy forward?"
Alleys roared in silence,
Subsiding murmurs of scarce joy.

Clinched in Pink knots;
Aghast the hands wandered.
With a whimper,
Pink implored,
"Let me fly! Let me fly!"

Oblivious the feet,
Kept running;
And tripping.
But never stopped
To the Pinkish orthodox whims.

Frail, but nimble;
It danced to its drumbeats,
Against barriers;
Higher than the brink of Pink.

The arduous Pink fiercely soared high;
Plucking the inhibitions stark;
Seeded in their minds,
In unison;
I applauded,
You cried and we yelled;
"Let Her fly! Let Her fly!"

Aren't You Happy?

When birds up in the vastness of blue,
sing the notes of octaves oblivious to you;
When the sun shining high above,
draws a blanket of its sunshine trove;
When the mists on the green grass,
embrace the feet treading across;
When the splashes of first monsoon rain,
awash the dreariness of a worked up brain;
When the sight of a beautiful smile,
helps you walk an extra mile;
When the caress of hands pure,
makes you forget the nasty rebukes of life sour;
When the practice of a long forgotten passion,
reinstates your cheekbones into motion;
When the fire of a dream to fly,
doesn't let the desire to dry;
Oh you beautiful species,
Wandering in three dimensions,
Looking for the impeccable melody,
Stop! Find yourself instead,
Amidst the deluge; 
And then interrogate!
Aren't you happy?
