Haiku- Love, Work and Life..!

-

Love

With a drying nib and a blinking cursor,
My mind and mouth are fondly strangled,
Unable to translate your thoughts into words.

Work

Calendars show my only days and not dates;
I struggle each day to realize someone's dream
Not knowing, how much, how far or how long?

Life

I travel in Life from Innocence through
Ignorance; Idiocy; Insanity; Insomnia; Inertia;
Up until, Imagination frees my Inward Isolation.
Love,
Ram Thilak

Sometimes I wonder!

Sometimes I wonder-
When I squeeze myself into that lift pensively,
With a bunch of people yet feeling lonely,
Will this lift ever attain escape velocity?
That takes me away from this Melancholy.

Sometimes I wonder-
When I scroll on my smartphone aimlessly,
With my thumb encircling the same apps stupidly,
Will this smartphone ever work intuitively?
That takes me away from this digital Cacophony.

Sometimes I wonder-
When I'm standing in that bus stop; solitary,
With dried leaves swirling around viciously,
Will I ever get that one bus immediately?
That takes me away to paradisiacal Arcady.

And then I wonder-
What I imagine my world to be is perfect and idealistic,
But what will remain in this world then will just be "Monotony".
The Friction, the Resistance, the Cacophony, the Melancholy -
Are the things that makes me uncomfortable, but I still persist
Because, in the end makes you awesome and keeps you alive.

Love,
Ram Thilak

She is a Never Ending Story!

Been a busy day at work which brought me to my blog to try an interesting idea. I wrote a poem in Tamil (my mother tongue) and tried to translate that in (English and Hindi - basically the languages I know) using a combination of software and my knowledge of the language. The rhyming scheme might only apply in Tamil - the language of my thoughts but still its fun looking at how a poem in one language can shape up in other languages.


Tamil: அவள் ஒரு தோதற்கதை 
என் சுவாசம் எல்லாம் உன் வாசம் தேடாதோ?
என் வார்த்தை எல்லாம் உன் பேரை சொல்லதோ?
என் நேரமும் உன் நேசம் கிடைக்காதோ?
என்னோடு நீ இருக்கும் ஓவுறு நொடியும் உல்லாசம் ஆகாதோ?

English: She is a Never Ending story
Can my breath be forever filled with your aroma?
Can all the words I utter keep murmuring your name?
Can I get your love every second I live?
Every moment I spend with you, feels like I'm in paradise.

Hindi: वह कभी खत्म न होने वाली कहानी है
क्या मेरी सांस हमेशा के लिए आपकी सुगंध से भर सकती ह?
क्या मैं जो भी शब्द बोलता हूं, क्या वह स…

This is a guest post by an promising fashion blogger Anu Mohan. She has learnt immensely about blogging, fashion (her strong point) and maintaining healthy friendships on social media in past few months. With less than a year of blogging, she has given an interview, her post got featured in an e-magazine and has secured the Liebster Award. I'm so happy for this bubbling fashionista and wish her success in all she does!

Her Article! : To start with this is Anuradha Mohan A.K.A Anu Mohan and I am a fashion blogger. I promised Ram long time back that I would write up an article on Indian clothing for men , yes I did delay but here it is .. :D To start with overall Indian ladies are associated with Sari but when it comes to men things are little different. I would broadly classify it into North Indian Ethnic Clothing and South Indian Ethnic Clothing; let’s not go too deep into it... ok?  :) To be honest I love men who embrace Indian wear and carry it with a style, it can be a Veshti or …
