KAANTE – THE REUNION

-



Yes! It was night

And they all did race

All of a sudden for them

This world seemed out of place



Yes! They were friends

Thrown apart by a storming weather

But nothing could keep them far

As now they were back together



Eager they were to see each other

Dressed hurriedly without glancing at mirror

As they met, smiles swept across their faces

They roamed again all those old places



Memories of good old times

Engulfed their hearts and minds

They all did miss those old times

Which now they all had left behind



Tonight they sat, ate and drank

Until they filled their tank

They laughed joked and danced

Until they lost their balance



They screamed yelled and jeered

Cause they were such nonsense breed

They rolled, jumped and ran

Amidst the crowd, wherever they can



They talked of tales of new life

They talked about the old ones too

Life seemed for a moment quite blur

Everything around rotated and emotions up surged



The short was now built strong

Denim jeans, Nike shoes

In his life now he had made new rules

When he walked, the gals stalked



The fat was same old game

He never knew what was shame

Now he claimed he had reduced weight

Dwelt on hard work, never bothered about fate



The dark tall one had returned

For a new path with a new hope

He had studied and studied hard

Something new was predicted on his tarot card



About the last one, what to say?

Clever he was, born in month of May

He now strives to be more stoical

He became meticulous, but never clinical



Thus the tale continues

The reunion was just another chapter

In this story of friends

There is no end to laughter.

A mist covered destiny

A mist-covered destiny ~ A speech by Satish R Inamdar Sixty-ninth Independence Day is here; the tricolors are in full bloom, a sudden rush of patriotism seems to arise in the heart of every common Indian. I am certainly not against this new feeling that sweeps over us for one day like a cyclone that raises alarm of impending destruction but changes its course just in time to avoid it all. Because, for all certainty I know 16 th august, the very next day will be just like other 364 days of the year and every memory and feeling on the day before it would vanish in a puff of smoke as we get busy in our livelihood. This year, the Independence Day happens to be on a weekend and I feel for the masses, who have been denied of an opportunity for a national holiday. Before we begin, lets do a reality check: “Tiranga” or “Tricolors” as we usually refer to our national flag has actually four colors not three. Everyone seems to ignore the navy blue wheel in the center of it. It is...

The Gambler's Night

-

The dictionary defines gambler as a person who is willing to take the risk in hope of a desired result. A risk-taker is a gambler. A gambler doesn't necessarily meet success every time. Loss is always expected; the undesired result. It was sometime during the month of May, summer vacations were on but Sainik school had called back its pupils for early onset of classes. The campus was empty except for the final year batch. The city of Bijapur bathed in the intense heat of blazing sun. The air near the surface of earth was so hot that it often resulted in mirages on the black velvety asphalt road. The days were hot; the nights brought relief with occasional rains and cool breeze. It was not an ordinary night. It was raining hard and fast and it made a rhythmic sound as it splashed on the window panes. Mike and Saty were in no mood to study, they were sitting near the window and discussing about the smallest route that they could take in this rain to reach Reshma’...

THE CITY

-
The City The feelings of pleasure and lust Places devoid of dust The city and its nights Always filled with sparkling lights Extravaganza is the theme here always Clubs populated by lesbians and gays People have lost the sense of shame Letting dignity fall, for few days of fame The life here changes like trends in fashion It’s like music played without passion Blindly following an unknown leader Reactionless being nothing more than a reader Money and fame are the ultimate powers Beauty here is brought by artificial flowers   The mock of nature makes this place stink To lower levels humanity sinks You should know when people smile Behind it, the concealed intents are vile The flowers and the gifts that they send Shouldn’t make you to treat them as your friend Even with shining lights this place seems dark Life seems a twisted tale even though it’s just stark The exuberance and the aura feel hollow In this faint light, which...
