PEAK IN SIGHT!

Sitting among wilderness, on a sturdy wine twig,

Looking at my goal at the peak twenty-three metre high.

Accelarating adrenaline, questioning my capability

Of my physical and mental capacity to make it above!

Harness my protection, belayer my guardian-

Dented rocks my path, to support me all the way!

All buckled up and prepared – tuning my brain..

The challenge seems to be of initiating the climb

Of holding on..

Trusting my grip, trusting my own body!

Tiny steps, inch by inch, crawling ahead..

Not my attire, not the pointy rocks,

Not the tight shoes and not my own fears..

None of these can stop me from rising!!!

I realise soon my small steps have risen me halfway up,

Sore fingers and shivering legs now more resilient than ever!

At this point the “belay-tionship” and cheers

Boosting my moral and keeps me conquering..

Soon cheers turn to celebration,

Sense of achievement and relief washes over my senses..

At the peek I glance around the breathtaking beauty

Nature outdoing its magnificence!!

I realise the journey is in the challenge to make it to the top,

The thrill and struggles

To be enjoyed, savoured and learnt from..

I shall be at it again some time soon! 

Life too is no different from climbing rocks i reflect,

A journey of struggles and thrills… 

Is it not?? 

A WOMANS ROLE

I am a woman meant to dust and clean,

For a messy woman the world has never seen!

I am a woman pretty and sweet..

Not loud and made to retreat!

I am a woman domesticated and polished..

The wife every man wished!

I am a woman caring and giving..

Own desires the last in counting!

I am a woman abiding patience and obedience..

For throwing tantrums require chauvinistic licence!

I am a woman dependant and meek,

Facing millions challenges, still weak?

I am a woman overridden by sentiments 

Adhering to standards fabricated for we descendants! 

I am a woman attempting to crawl out of boundaries 

Into changing mindsets and endless opportunities! 

I am a woman bound by the roles of womanhood, 

Here to tell you, we have more power than we ever understood.. 

Care, give, bloom as nature has designed.. 

Yet don’t fall for the false restrictions, untrue and blind! 

TRIBUTE TO TEACHERS(SENSEI)

Humility and ethics you preach, 

Discipline and persistence you teach.

Setting goals with vision to reach.. 

Optimistic patience is what you beseech.

Words of encouragement in every speech,

A tyrannical teacher though does unleash

At moments of dysfunction or breech…… 

What matters to you, is to make moments matter each!! 

My SENSEI, with your dedication you bewitch.. 

Inspire me, induce in me lessons so rich.. 

I wish to thank you for guidance, respected niche!
