Vipanchi's treasured poem

Warrior Queen

I just returned from the hunt, The wild boar left bruises on my body. The jungle is not a fair place to be, Just like life, forest is full of mystery. Beauty and danger co-exist like a deceptive blend. I am trained to look like a hawk, hear like a bat and hunt like a lioness. I am trained to wield sharp weapons and fight fierce battles. I am the warrior queen of a land, heard about, across the seas. I am the ruler of a kingdom expanding ever since the dawn of human kind. I looked into the mirror, I saw a girl standing before me, Coy and beautiful! She's clad in muslin, her hair set loose. She looked like an ancient Arab princess waiting for her king. I snickered at my innocent longing for a knight king. Warrior queens, they say, are not destined for a normal life, rather, not destined for love. How is an inherent human emotion a hindrance to anybody's existence? I believed, Love gives me courage to fight fiercest of the battles, Love gives me energy and ...

Peace

To be at peace is the only pursuit. Everything else is a distraction.  Vipanchi

Creeping anxiety

  It is painful, to be trapped in this cage of anxiety.  I can see the pleasant hues standing by my door.  I go out occasionally, only to be thrown in,  Into this all encompassing darkness, of cold blood and fear!  It is not pleasant.  It is painful. Vipanchi

The Tombstone

She smiled back at the handsome young man, Thus started, a beautiful love story ! Hi!  I’m the parrot. I narrate this story.  ‘I love you’ said the young man, The girl was waiting for this moment.  They looked cute together.  Love makes life beautiful. Isn’t it? She smiled as he approached her,  He embraced her in a loving hug.  His presence made her beautiful and fragile.  Or, is it making her weak and vulnerable? Days passed, they got married. She moved in with him,  Everyday, she cooks, he kisses her on the forehead, They leave for work.   Wow! Love is caring for each other.  [one day, I was picking up some twigs, heard a loud voice. It’s the man. He clearly seems frustrated with his work] He was shouting at the top of his voice.  Um.. the lady spilt coffee on his computer.  She was sorry, clearly repenting on her carelessness.  After all, she should be careful. But, she never looked irritated. She must be perfect. They...

Untill

Stepping down that big boulder,  I held your hand. Climbing up that steep hill, I took your support. When the roadside goons stared at me, I held on to you. In the dark street, on that cloudy night, I clasped your arm. I remember leaning on your shoulder after a tiresome day. I remember hugging you tight after that happy vacation. I remember trusting you with my body and soul, Till you tore my-self piece by piece. I remember you as my world,  Till I realised your world doesn't know me.

Dance of Love

The wind was swift, trees waved to each other. Falling leaves danced in air and, flowers blossomed with freshness. The pretty girl smiled, looking at the vast blue sky. “What's the news?"asked the restless pegion, The cuckoo sang an empty tune. Galloping squirrels cared nothing and the setting sun waved a good bye. The pretty girl smiled, staring at the gate.  “What's the news!" the grass got curious.   Rabbits left their carrots and hopped into the thick green bushes. Little pups were least interested. They played with their cute new toys. “Someone's here!"shouted the pegion. Tall and handsome, a boy from the beautiful city approached the pretty girl. He smiled and took her hand. As the girl looked into his eyes,  he gave her a gentle kiss. “Ah! The dance of love!"giggled everyone.

Tough Times

Locked up in home,  Not enough work to do, Or not enough interest in work, I give in to the boredom. The hot day fades into a dark night welcoming cool breezes. Wondering if this ever ends,  I sleep like a baby, under the limitless sky. The news rooms are loud, People around are confused and hopeless, Warriors at the frontline are fighting the scary enemy. I give in to spine chilling fear. The hot day fades in to dark night, welcoming cool breezes. Wondering if this ever ends, I sleep like a baby, under the limitless sky.  The world fell apart like mist in sunshine. Uncertainty eclipsed human kind like a thick blanket of darkness. It gets tough to breathe and a life is taken forever. I give in to faith. The hot day fades in to a dark night, welcoming cool breezes.  Wondering if this ever ends, I sleep like a baby under the limitless sky. Creativity yells at my lousy mind, Happiness beggs my attention. Love misses my presence, but, Hope just caught hold of me. This to...
