The Train

 Blue and white shades, 

All around or just straight, 

The rails unfold, 

Along the way. 


The next stop, 

I know, 

But then truly, 

Do I know? 


The last stop, I saw

And it haunts me, 

To this platform. 

Forget it, you ask, 

Remember it, I say, 

I need to know, 

What the world is, everyday. 


What is the world everyday? 

It's buzzing people all around, 

With happiness, joy, love and smiles, 

With sadness, cry, tears and vice. 


They all have a happy face, 

They all live so happy a life, 

The O God, why, 

Do I see them cry? 


Why can't we all

Just be happy for 

Each one around? 

Why can't we all, 

Leave hate for our own? 


Why is jealousy a feeling? 

Why is innocence a vice? 

Do we in this world, 

Need only a face 

That is nice? 


Trust is entrusted, 

Innocence is sold, 

The price to pay is high

Be careful of them all.

Rich Love

 She held her child,  Covered in soot,  Her lips black and feet bruised Cooing in his ears,  He smiled in her embrace,  Showered by love,  In the beggar woman's motherly grace.  A broom in hand,  She sat on the train floor,  Smothering her child.  The world around her judged her clothes,  Her son's bare back,  His burning toes,  She faced the eyes,  She fought the words,   She forgot her state,  And with it all her fears.  Society is cruel,  She knew that fact,  And covered her child's Ears, Eyes and Head,  She did not care for the world As her world lay in her lap.

Mufasa, The Lion King: Movie Review

Mufasa, The Lion King is an addition to the highly successful The Lion King franchise and acts as a well written prequel to the famous and heart touching The Lion King 1994. It is directed by Barry Jenkins and produced by Adele Romanski and Mark Ceryak. It has gained great attention and a lot of well deserved applause.  It features the story of how Mufasa, the father of Simba, fights for the Pridelands and not being born into royalty, becomes the King he is.  The external conflict involves a greedy tyrant Lion named Kiros who rounds up albino lions who are not accepted by their own prides.  The internal conflict is showcased and minutely explains the roots of the widespread tree of hatred his own brother Taka had grown for him.  Mufasa uses high technology CGI which gave the animated characters some expressions, which the live action remake of The Lion King failed to achieve. It also has the classic touch of some great philosophical quotes that have deeper meaning th...

 I sat in my seat,  Staring at the beauty,  Who was staring at the window All folded and pretty.  That woman, I stared at  Noticing deep things,  And to myself I thought of many happenings Those knees, now in knots, Once had scratches and boos  Of the Playground.  Those feet, now swollen,  Once were decorated with gold n silver 'payal'. Those arms, now loose,  Once flailed away  As she played 'horsie' With her daddy.  Those nails, now plain and brittle,  Once had hot red nailpaint adorning them That hair, now brown and cream,  Was once ebony black,  Oiled and ribboned,  By a mother's caring beam.  Those ears, now stretched,  Once had long earrings hanging down them,  That figure, now under a saree,  Was once in a beautiful kurti.  Those eyes, now spectacled,  Once were 'kajal'- clad.  That loving embrace,  Once held three kids.  Those legs, now stick-held,  O...
