AN ODE TO FRIENDSHIP

An ode to friends.

An ode to relive the moments,

Which had an impact to last,

Of days we spent in congress,

Which happened to bypass so fast.

days of high pitched laughter,

days of silent sorrow and tears,

Days of clash and subtle argument,

days of liveliness and cheer.

We are made out of different mud,

Still attached like a pea in a pod,

Adapting long from roots,

Under the refuge of god.

Whenever you go down to the memory lane,

To remember some good times spent,

Let me be a trifle part of your memory,

I hope your affection, years from now would be the same…..

Lockdown Diary 3.0- A normalising phase

Diary 3.0 : A normalising phase Day 41 (4th May 2020) Monday 6:15 AM Although I am following my lockdown routine. The 3.0 phase is going to be different. Government has removed many restrictions.(as it is people were not listening 🤷🙄 they might as well go to work.) ( Source- Social news.xyz) Now what? This question remains. Maybe the government has left it on us to take our own decisions. The police force is brutally tired. They tried beating up people, pleading them, punishing them(squats, yoga etc) morally shaming people.(Clapping and felicitating people who were out for no reason), making them dance. In this process some of the police force got beaten up, killed, spitted on, bullied and threatened by some politicians and infected with coronavirus for doing their job. Therefore, the government has changed it's parenting technique. Remove certain restrictions and observe the results. That's the only choice they had. The new parenting technique is borrow...

Chapter 3: Shopping for a Groom

Don't you think matrimonial sites should have the Amazon assured option? "We sell authentic goods only." You know when we shop on Amazon we have various choices, filters for price range, brand, quality etc. Looking for a groom in an Indian marriage is kind of the same deal and what is more convenient than shopping online.(it's a myth that online shopping is easier it takes a lot of time, read reviews, scan through the material bah! It's so boring) Anyways coming back to Indian marriage the filters are Income/salary(of course🙄) gotra or clan as you may call it(should never be the same), kundali/ hososcope from a fortune teller, Cast with a capital C, star match and a long list entails. Our parents who don't trust online products easily are incessantly addicted to the online groom shopping.(I know. I know they are doing the needful as parents) But you know what, atleast amazon offers reviews, return and exchange policy .😁 What do we do ...

Lockdown Diary 4 : A confusing phase

Diary 4: A confusing phase. Day 55 (18th May 2020) Monday. One might wonder why am I calling it a confused phase. Just have a look at the blueprint of lockdown 4 first. It's been extended till 31st May 2020. It is confused phase because they have opened market places. While people still struggle to understand the meaning of social distancing. 🤷🙄 Any sane person will still avoid visiting crowded places when corona scare still lurks and people who will go out are already going out since day one. (The most untamed animals of the animal kingdom.😤) This feels like opening the liquor shops situation all over again. Let's wait for these changes to show colors. Lockdown 4 is going to be an interesting diary I suspect. Stay tuned. 10:40 Finally this lockdown has some music in store. The speaker system that was in the upstairs has been bought down to the living room and I began with listening to a legend Kishore Kumar. (Pic source- Jio saavan) ...
