The day of Christmas!

On a lovely day of Christmas Amidst carols and the mass Stood I, waiting for Mr. Claus Presents , gifts and cards Filled the stores and carts In search of one, was my heart My feet - walked the snow covered street Feeling the showering sleet. Far I had traveled On spotting the reindeer, almost stumbled And Santa's "Ho ho ho" got me dazzled Wrapped gift in his hand Gentle smile on his face And the warmth he brought along I opened the gift-box A set of puzzle blocks In time all the words unlocked "Share and Care" was in Bold My hand hold - A warm message in Gold Eyes opened And I questioned Dream? all this while?

A simple prayer..

Far above the land I know Heard a voice of glory In search of it I started this beautiful journey Was it a dream? Or in real I don't know Wish I could join in Harmony Soul and heart never apart Darkness fills the space Pain felt , sorrows burried Deep within. I want to be there With you.. Can I ? Response is what I cry for In return you sing these tunes Nostalgia hits and I am unaware You care, Dont you But why is that I feel alone Simple and beaten Can you lend a hand please, I plead A soft gentle touch I know forever you are there Besides me, holding me Showering the love I need.

Happy Krishna Janmaashtami.

Wishing all readers a very Happy Krishna Janmaashtami . For who do not know about the festival - Janmashtami is celebrated to welcome and enjoy Lord Krishna's birth. It is believed that the birth of Lord Krishna took place when the various planets were in auspicious places. Lord Krishna was born in Dwapuryug (Iron Age) in Mathura. If you'd like to know more of this festival and the diety - lots and lots you'll find in any search engine. What interests me most on this day is the various mouth watering delicacies - laddoos and fried crispy murukkus(chakkalis ), kodubaLes . Hmmmm as I write these lines my tummy is calling for some.. I'll leave you with a kannada poem which talks about a devotee who is trying to call the Lord Krishna -who has disappeared in Kalyug. Offering his devotional prayers he'd love to hear Krishna as an infant or young boy playing a flute. He wants Krishna to bring joy, love and happiness into all spreads of Life. ಬೆಣ್ಣೆ ಕೃಷ್ಣನ...
