A Poem I Wrote Long Ago

Well this is one poem which i wrote initially when i was in my intermediate class of studies.i bettered it during my first year of engineering.This poem was initially written in present tense ,but since it is a thing of the past now,so on february 22,2009 at 11:55p.m IST, i changed it to the past tense.

Later on, i tried my level best to write another one like this but could never do so n thats because there are certain emotions that come only once in life. This is the mindset of Shetanshu or rather Lucky of the past. It was the time when i used to live my life to its fullest.

BELOVED

whose glimpse kept my face smiling.

whose absence held my affections waiting.

whose hair were like the dark night.

whose face was like the moon bright.

whose lips resembled the roses red.

whose sweet voice could wake the dead.

whose deeds portrayed my feelings fine.

whose eyes were my rhenish wine.

whose grace could make a fairy shy.

whose melancholy left my face dry.

whose full disposition was truly perfect.

whose love was my life’s best aspect.

whose character was like the Portland rock.

whose chagrin gave me a mental block.

whose smile made the buds bloom.

whose humor erased all life’s gloom.

whose happiness was my only desire.

whose sight rekindled my heart’s fire.

whose humility could put angels to shame.

whose good vibes won her instant fame.

whose self respect was worth emulation.

whose honesty gave god satisfaction.

whose love transformed a lunatic to poet.

whose advice could make sinners to regret.

whose definition was beauty personified.

In whose perception my eyes belied.

whose worship did my each cell.

whose parting made my life hell.

whose heart was made of pure gold.

whose wit could melt people bold.

whose description could not my poem give.

but she was for whom i used to live.

The Budding Romantic
















WHEN OFT UPON MY COUCH I LIE

IN JOCUND OR IN PENSIVE MOOD

THEY FLASH UPON THE INWARD EYE

WHICH IS THE BLISS OF SOLITUDE

AND THEN MY HEART WITH PLEASURE FILLS

AND DANCES WITH THE DAFFODILS


I wonder whether Mr. Wordsworth would have ever imagined the literary impact that these lines would have on the minds of people who would have the fortune of reading and fantasising about them. I admit that i am no great scholar of english but those who are would agree with me that the above mentioned lines are one of the best possible descriptions of the subtle impact of nature on a human being.

The beauty of nature and the beauty of beloved are two main ingredients, which when mixed in the right proportion, give rise to one of the most celebrated phenomena in poetry—- ROMANCE .

Romance is a term used to describe a celebration of life often through music,art and the attempt to express love through words and deeds.(thanks wikipedia)

So here i am, a 25 something man, yearning for a little romance in my life.

Music— oh i love it. It is the food for my soul. I love Lucky Ali, Nusrat, Jal, Bryan Adams, ………… and the list never ends.

Art—– i am not much of an artist but let me tell you a good piece of art can never go unnoticed by my eyes, whether it is a carefully carved sculpture or a passionately rendered painting.

Love for a women is something that every heterosexual male is born with, and i am no exception but the only problem is that i haven’t found the right one yet.

I believe that when we have just one life to live, we should celebrate each day as if its a festival and make the most of each moment. The current happenings in the world strengthen my belief more and more and i guess it is the need of the hour that everyone should start thinking like me instead of adding to the world’s problems. Lets get some smiles rolling, lets wipe some tears off, lets lend someone a shoulder to cry upon, lets tell a friend how much he matters to us, lets tell our parents how much we love them and appreciate what they have done for us AND THAT MY FRIENDS WOULD BE A NEVER ENDING ROMANCE. Lets romance with life before we set out to romance with a girl or boy(whatever).

A THING OF BEAUTY IS A JOY FOREVER!

OH MY LOVE IS LIKE A RED RED ROSE!

Agreed but my idea of a perfect romance would be a romance in which i would not only be romancing my beloved, but also my life and offcourse nature. Think about celebrating a carnival with your beloved on the Goan beaches and making them and every passer by smile. That my friends is my vision of a romance worth dying for and thats precisely why you can call me THE BUDDING ROMANTIC.
