An Ode to Blogging Years

-
This one is to blogging,
And the fact that I have a log-in.

Helping me in decorating my bio(s),
And attracting a few ‘Wow-s.’

I keep on changing the looks and design,
And urge people to read posts of mine.

Seeing views count,
I let the words over-mount.

Where my thoughts are expressed,
And imagination gets its wings to spread.

Not knowing what keeps people hooked,
I write about what life has cooked.

In a way improving my literary skills,
and working as a (self) satisfaction pill,
by saving my creativity from getting killed.

A promise to keep you engaged,
is what I'll try to manage.

What started off as just a Blog,
I never got to know when it started to mean a lot.

Writer's Poetess' Note: This is the longest poem I've written so far.

“ First Benchers ” What comes to your mind whenever you hear this? Perhaps your mind starts portraying the picture of that studious boy with spectacles on who can only think of studies and studies only. Many of you would agree to this and possess similar mindset. Although, this might not be the case and just a pre-assumption. Let me give you an instance. You all must have seen those  pictures doing rounds on social networking sites  where first benchers are shown like geeks who know nothing beyond the world of books. We automatically assume that first benchers are like ‘ Chatur ’ (popular character of 3 Idiots); First benchers do not like to bunk lectures and….. all that stuff.  Busy in getting clicked or talking                                          However, the truth is that the position of the bench does not decide the type of student you are. ...

Cricket diaries

Disclaimer: If you are a fan of the Cricket sport and have visited this post for satisfying sport buds, please don't proceed with these expectations. About an year ago, we heard somewhat familiar sound in our house, but not so familiar that we could decipher exactly what sound it was and from where it was coming. What was more disturbing was that it wasn't once in a while noise, we could hear it on a daily basis that too at an almost particular time.  To track its source, I would failingly go in the direction from where it came until one day night. I flung open the door of washroom and the buzzing sound went silent. After a few seconds, it started making noise again. I moved it again to see if made any impact. It went silent again.  So, I closely inspected the door physically to see any presence of a bug. Nothing. I called my nephew to confirm if even he could hear the sound from same place or I was being mistaken. He affirmed the source. Now if it was something on the inner ...

In the world of Liars

Serial liar I have this habit of lying to kids. And this is not the worse part. I even forget about telling them the truths after lying. Once I fooled my niece that the printed coffee mug in our house had the picture of her mother/my sister on it. Later on, I forgot telling her that it wasn't her mother on the mug, but me. Next time, when milk was served to me in that mug, she cheered, 'See, that's my mom on it.'  I was like, "No beta. That's me."  She again says, 'No, it's my mumma.' I thought she was getting confused between the siblings as her mother and my face resembles quite A LOT. It was then that my sibling reminded me of how I had told the kid that forgotten lie. I don't remember this one in detail. (But I do trust my writing skills that even if I don't remember I can cook up stories.) Still I have this saving grace in the form of reading-out-loud partner (who is simultaneously reading this blogpost as I write - BLOG LIVE ki...
