To Sir.shakespeare and his disciples

 

A friend of mine posted this poem and I found it intriguing and thus this post :)

Now to answer you respected Shakespeare sir,

  

I only open my umbrella at a downpour, 

But I could die for the gentle drizzle..

I find a shadow spot when its scorching hot

But nothing beats waking up to the morning sun..

I close my window for a tornado

But tell me what can be more soothing than a drape of breeze..

When rain is refreshing, sunshine is gorgeous and the wind is magnificent

Why fear love?
-Chanchal

Thank god

by Rich Accetta-Evans

Thank God, the planets don't revolve

In perfect circles round the sun.

But wander oval orbits

Far away in space.

Thank God, the axis of the Earth

Is turning tilted, like a top,

And wobbles as it spins.

Thank God, rivers never flow

In straight efficient lines

From the heights down to the sea,

But crash their way down mountainsides,

Fall over rocky cliffs,

And carve out twisting valleys where they run.

Thank God, Thank God, for all our days

And for every single creature

And each one's singular, quirky ways.

Something sweet I read today: The space between your fingers are meant to be filled with mine :)

Feel good moments that you SHOULD have.

Falling in love.
Laughing so hard your face hurts.
That special glance.
Road trips with friends.
Hearing your favorite song on the radio.
Lying in bed listening to the rain outside.
Chocolate milkshake. (or Strawberry)
A bubble bath.
Giggling.
A good conversation.
The beach.
Laughing at yourself.
Midnight phone calls that last for hours.
Running through sprinklers.
Laughing for absolutely no reason at all.
Having someone tell you that you're beautiful.
That special kiss.
Making new friends or spending time with old ones.
Playing with a new puppy.
Having someone play with your hair.
Playing in the rain.
Swinging on swings.
Wrapping presents under the Christmas tree,
while eating cookies and drinking eggnog.
Making eye contact with a cute stranger.
Winning a really competitive game.
Making chocolate chip cookies.
Holding hands with someone you care about.
Running into an old friend and realizing that some things never change.
Riding the best roller coasters over and over.
Watching the expression on someone's face as they open a much  desired present.
Watching the sunrise.
Getting out of bed every morning and thanking God for another beautiful day.

Butterflies

I miss being young jumpy and going gaga over crushes.

Butterflies in my stomach,
Soaring up high,
The way you make me feel,
I could never deny.

When you smile at me
It brightens up my day,
But when I look at you,
You seem to turn away.

I try to reach to you,
My scream is loud yet quiet.
I'm floating on a cloud,
Then suddenly its night.

Realization shows me something,
You will never see,
That day by day your love
Is what I need to breathe.

Butterflies in my tummy,
you make my legs go funny,
you fill me with desire,
you set my heart on fire.

Feelings I can't handle,
Destroy me like a vandal,
Wanted you for so long,
Never thought this day would come.
And now I get a text from you,
Telling me what you would like to do,
To finally accept these feelings,
Accept life's dealings.

A love blossoming like a flower,
I'm bowled over by the power,
The feelings and thoughts through my mind,
You my friend and love are one of a kind.

Only something

Only something with no
need—
warped by element, loved
into recession

Only something with no
mother, a boat on its water,
afloat and nowhere

could refuse the harbor

Something with no vacancy,
no hunger, cropping its own
low capacity

No birth wound, no age ring,
something strayed
by spontanaeity

Only something with primal
border, with mineral
armor

could turn from this offering

Like a peak you sometimes
see, not a chain of anything

1/4 cutting - தேடியே தேடியே

SING ALONG! =)

தேடியே தேடியே கண்கள் ஓய்கின்றதே
அம்புலி போல நம் வெட்கை தேய்கின்றதே
அல்ஜெப்ரா அல்கோரிதம் போலவே இருந்த என் வானில்
மின்னல் மின்னும் நேரத்தை
(தேடியே..)

எங்கோ என் லைஃபும் ஓடும்
சீஷாவில் ஆடும் பிள்ளை போலே
மேல் வந்தும் கீழே போகும்
வந்தும் வராமல் போகும்
ஈரெல்லாம் தும்மல் போலே தேடும்
என் லக்கும் ஏமாற்றியே போகும்
(தேடியே..)
(எங்கோ..)

தேடினேன் தேடினேன் கண்ணில் தெரிகின்றதே
அம்புலி போல நம் வெட்கை வளர்கின்றதே
பாட்டியின் கம்பளி போலவே அகண்ட என் வாழ்வில்
விண்மீன்கள் கண்கொட்டும்
(தேடினேன்..)

ஓ எங்கும் சந்தோஷம் பொங்கும்
ஊஞ்சலில் பிள்ளை போலாடிடும்
பின்வந்தும் முன்னே போகும்
கண்ணால் கண்டாலே போதும்
கொட்டாவி போலே ஒட்டிக்கொள்ளும்
என் ஆனந்தம் தொற்றிக்கொள்ளும்
(தேடினேன்..)
(எங்கும்..)

Why I miss NUS

There is a moment of pure joy
That seems to cut out troubles in half
And we forget all burdens
And that is when we laugh

When its reading week
Surrounded by my fellow-muggers
The frequent tea breaks we took
Only to know who are the new lovers

When I stay up late with my clowns
And our silliness is high
Laughing so hard till our stomachs ache
And we really want to cry

When my lovable CSK won it big
We looked at each other in disbelief
But we start to smile and giggle
Out of pure bliss and relief

Oh the baking we thought we knew
And the oven is all aglow
And we start to laugh at our process
It’s way better than any cooking show

When the song comes on the radio
And I remember a memory behind it
And I can’t help but to laugh out loud
And for me to calm my smile, it takes a bit

When I’m lying in that tennis court
Watching the stars above
And my closest friends by me
And I can feel all bliss and love.

Let me tie my lace!

The bowler balls to the batsman's face
With spin fast or medium pace
But bravely does the batsman face
Because he has a helmet on his face

He hits the ball and the fielders race
And throw it back at the wicketkeepers face
For the next ball the baller goes to his place
"One minute" says the batsman, "Let me tie my lace!"

Lord Chubby Pruneface

Its not that I am not talented, its just that people around me are fantabulously talented. I was chatting with this friend of mine who was very specific that his name is not mentioned so he shall be called Lord Chubby Pruneface. So our hero is a super romantic ( bf cum bff for his gf ) spun a song out of random word.. added a tune to it in less than 10mins. The lyrics might not be fab but still, 10mins is pretty good a gangaiamaran style =) Here goes..
