An October Morning

Thought of publishing my poem, which got me into first position in the writing challenge that was held in the year 2021, by The Unheard Stories Writing Community An October Morning Summer is gone Fall is here. Awakened by Nature's spell , The leafy cacophony in the gloomy woods; This beautiful blue-skied October morning, I witnessed a brilliant serenity.... The welcoming of cold winters, Oh! How Nature in itself is a magnificent bliss; I sit taciturn... The calming onset of seasons, The fallen leaves making the trees almost bare and decayed Yet the trees stand tall and give warmth of life in this leafy bedlam. Nature calls upon us ; Let bygones be bygones Let us shed all anxieties and fears, Let us enjoy the journey of life. As Nature has always been a giver, Nature has always been a giver. Betwixt the daily musings and work, The sweet chirping of birds adjoining the...

Song Synopsis of Kuch Toh Log Kahenge(Amar Prem)

"Kuch toh log kahenge Logon ka kaam hain kehnaa Choro bekaar ki baaton mein Kaheen beet na jaaye rainaa... " (From the iconic cult movie-Amar Prem(1972) Music-RD Burman Lyrics-Anand Bakshi Singer-Kishore Kumar) What a soulful masterpiece! Originally written by Anand Bakshi the lyrics and the overall synopsis of this song has it's relevance even today. As we all know society has always been full of judgemental critics. This song symbolises how Society often mimicks and criticises and in fact to be honest still continues to question whatever we do no matter good or bad, and how they assume things without even knowing the reality of that particular circumstance or scenario. This famous song sung by Kishore Kumar is loved by millions as it has an universality that is accepted widely by the mass. It carries the spirit of truth and ignorance. Remember the times we often say Ignorance is a bliss? Well, it is right in many cases. Appropriately, in this...

Is Lady Macbeth the fourth witch?

The witches have a supernatural effect on us, "giving the impression of mighty and inscrutable forces behind human life." - Harold Goddard. One of Shakespeare's most controversial, diabolical, influential, ambitiously manipulative and frightening female character, Lady Macbeth acts as a catalyst by giving birth to the “ murderer” Macbeth and by entirely breaking the stereotype of women being kind and softhearted. She serves as the main influence in Macbeth's life. He trusts her with everything he has. She is, after all, his "dearest partner of greatness." (I, v, 13) Macbeth was written at a time (1600s) when a large majority of people were interested in witchcraft. Hence,witchcraft play an essential role in the theme of the play. In, act one scene five, Lady Macbeth first appears on stage, reading a letter which shows she is well educated enough to know the difference between right and wrong. This is highly unusual because ...

A Paradigm of Futuristic Living

"A futuristic way towards a better living" Well, who wouldn't want that? Are we futuristicallly dreaming towards an advanced better world ? Or is this all a facade of augmented reality ? A reality only to make us blurred humans... Thinking about the future secures us somehow as we feel ambitiously humane . But at the same time it makes us want more of it. How we yearn for sitting on a time machine and going far beyond! But with gradual steps it's ultimately time, destiny,God and our willpower that takes us into the future And we do accept this realm of factuality As we humans through our good deeds and noble work set examples for the future... We imprint our truth in the depth of time And the light of future calls us... The future where we get everything with the blink of an eye... The oxymoronic future that engages us with laziness as well as enthusiasm.

Sense of Belongingness

Sense of Belongingness within ourselves is quite natural in this elixir of life; as we tend to cling on to our chosen one's. That ray of hope drives us to move ahead in life. The very fact that we all are ultimately 'self 'as we come alone and depart alone makes us harder to think as we are living in this temporal illusory world that projects our very situational phases . It's like a humane maze...Interdependence within dependence . Paradoxically speaking, we tend to be independent whereas in actuality we can never be fully independent in this world as God's creation was humans ,not robots. We have to cling on . We have to belong to someone in order to be independent. In this somewhat daily chaotic course of events of our life we are somehow dependent on others for some or the other reason. We 'belonged' in the past, we 'belong' in the present and will leave a trace of 'belongingness' in the future. However, it's true that our ...

World Stands Still

O Sweet Static Current World! Our humdrum for millions of years is rather chaotic for you Mother Earth and we are losing the balance of this world wherein Peace is lost! Too much of technological advancements is creating a discord in this synchronized balanced Nature. We, the proud Gen Y citizens feel it's our privilege to conquer the world with smart mechanical establishments and Artificial Intelligence. But intelligently speaking, we are unaware of the fact that Nature's Bounty can never be conquered. Rather it can be healed and restored with our united efforts. Re-vitalising the ecosystem is what it takes. It starts with one persons' joint effort to change mankind's misuse of Nature, it's 5 elements, manpower and intellect ; and yes ofcourse with good logical explanations so that mankind is jointly moved and the whole crisis of this modern world is fathomable. The world now in this dead...
