April Rain




Soothing whispers of a gentle breeze,

Swept amid my curly hair.

As I sat  on the porch with a cup of chai,

Bloated ashen clouds dashed into each other,

They waited to explode and turned darker by the second.

Trees swaying a welcome dance,

While the earth blew a mighty wind to greet the approaching rain,

I look up as I felt a spray of tiny beads cascading down my arm.

And there those first droplets kiss the planet.

It left an earthy aroma all around.

Then with a Rumble and a roar came those majestic drops,

Shattering the ground with force,

It created a beautiful serenade on the roof

And steady drumming on the windows.

It enriched the thirsty soil,

Making every dusty leaf glossy,

Cheerful, bright, and bold is the Rain

It calms your nerves and makes you smile

Whether you are dancing in the rain 

or watching it from a confined space

Rain will help those anxieties slip away

And water your soul with love.

Lost in Two Dimensions

  We gaze at screens, day and night, A world so flat, yet shining bright. Pixels dance, but can’t replace, The warmth of touch, a loved one’s face. No scent of earth, no ocean's breeze, No velvet grass beneath our knees. No taste of rain, no fire’s glow, Just silent echoes, a hollow show. Are we alive, or just a view? A life so crisp, yet missing hue. Step outside, let senses soar, Feel, breathe, taste—be whole once more. # unLearn

To my Dearest Grandmother....

                Cultivating habits like writing a dairy is not a cake walk anymore. Atleast not in this generation where we are all drowning in the ocean of technology. Infact Ayamachi once asked me “ Mole! Ee Phone il entha ullathu? Ellavarum ithu epozhum enthina pidichu kondu nadakunnathu? . Those words hit deep and I realised we are giving more importance to this nonliving man made thing than anything else. Are we carrying the Bible the same way everywhere we go?                     While we jot down our “To Do Lists” Ayammachi has it memorised. There used to be a time when landphones existed  in every house and when she memorised the telephone numbers of her near and dear ones. How many phone numbers can we tell by heart?                   She also has a “Kanaku Pusthakam” where she writes her daily expenses and calculations. She also ...
