नानी!❤️👵

भानूदय की आभा ने स्याही-सा तिमिर भगाया!

उस दिन मेरी नानी ने एक नन्हीं परी को पाया।

मुस्कान जो खिली उस चेहरे पर,

अम्बर भी तब मुस्का दिया

एक अनोखी गाथा – स्वतंत्रता !!!

घिरा हुआ था उज्ज्वल गगन

अब उन श्याम घनों से,

बिखर गए थे मोती सारे भारत की अखंड माला के !

कदम रख लिए थे उन्होंने

भारत की पावन धरा पर

प्रारम्भ किया खेल अपना

गोरों ने काली सीरत से !!

 

The Penable Award! (1+1)

Hello my brothers and sisters!

I hope you all are doing well. 😊 You would’ve already guessed what this post is about, no?

As…

This is in response to Thursday Poetry Writing Competition hosted weekly by H.R. Phoenix, an excellent blogger! This time we had to experiment with different kinds of poetry styles and to begin each verse with the same letter!

My Colours!

That wonderful Golden time
When I was ickle
Very naughty, a little haughty
Innocent but not fickle.

Her Knots!

It was on the news yesterday that an army of locusts has attacked the crops in various parts of India! They might even head towards the city in which I live though I wish and pray that they would return to their home, their habitat and cease the havoc they’ve created! 

Wanna Know You Better!!

Hello Everyone!

Today, I’m here with my first ever nomination… “Wanna Know You Better!!” A blogger friend of mine was kind enough to make me a nominee and in his words  I have been condemned to answer his questions. Well, he has got some real humour!😂

Nourish your talents before they fade away…

We all have a fire kindling in us somewhere… I call this fire 🔥 our talents!

The Sound Of Music!

Evelyn Glennie, a Scottish multi-percussionist who despite losing her capacity to hear at the age of 12 didn’t give up music! She couldn’t hear the sounds but felt it in the most amazing way! Once she’d heard (felt) a drum playing and in her words…

“Suddenly I realised I could feel the higher drum from the waist up and the lower one from the waist down.”

SURPRISE!

Read it slowly, feeling the sensations!

It all happened in a SECOND!

Vision obscured, engulfed in pitch black

That moment…

Hello everyone!

Through these lines, I have tried to capture a moment … a moment spoilt by the dark magic of misunderstanding. Sometimes we do what we don’t mean to and how that small mistake turns into a blunder changing everything! So, friends keep your calm and don’t let the perils of misunderstanding hover around you! Wishing you a happy read and even a more joyous day ahead!

Ah! Can I…?

Descending from the marble stairs

Diving into this fast pacing world

My eyes caught something,

A glimpse of the little me…

Posing happily in the photo frame,

Flashing my bright white teeth,

Hair disheveled but still beautiful.

Her shiny black eyes held mine

And I swam into them and kept staring blankly…

Kindling a poet in me!

There I was sitting on a high back wooden chair, too big for my small frame to an extent that my legs didn’t even reach the ground! My anxiety was at its zenith and even multiplied as my eyes scanned my confident competitors all set with pens in their hands and I was the only one holding a pencil!

We all are blessed with some special ingredients but to prepare a delicious meal, we have to start cooking!

The Almighty is very kind!

He has blessed us all with special talents – the ingredients which vary from person to person!

If you can master self control, you’re a master indeed!

It all depends on how you organise yourself… For you are a potter of your life! And if you can control yourself then you’re making a master piece!

 

Be happy and analyse your actions…😃

The Maple Tree!

There it hung a wooden plank

Beneath me, a maple tree.

A little girl would hop in her pigtails

Swaying her frock, playing with the frills.

She would sit on her majestic throne – a wooden plank!

And in her sweet voice she yelled

“Higher Daddy! Higher I wanna go!”

Their laughs echoed in the valley

As the swing launched high

Towards the infinite sky…

 

Alike me!

I glanced 

At the shards of glass

So alike me!

Hollow…

Deep blue

Sparkling eyes

Like waves kissing the shore.

Words are mere strings of letters scattered on a sheet unless they’re brewed in a writer’s cauldron of imagination, feelings and emotions!!!📝📝📝

Sometimes what somebody needs is your caring eyes and willing ears…💖💖💖

Aashirvad! (Blessings!)

A special picnic to Japanese park!

The DAV bus erupted into cheers as it steered through the black barred gates of “Kamla Bakshi Elders Home Society” . On stepping out of the bus, we (the students of class XII along with our teachers) were greeted by a magnificent garden inhabiting beautiful blossoms, some of which I had seen for the first time. Our joyous hearts then escorted the elders into the bus and we drove towards the Japanese Park with high spirits!

Musings!

Hello everyone!!

It’s after so long I’m drumming my fingers on the keyboard to write here… They’re freezing, yes it’s cold here but they don’t want to stop. ✍There was something – a strange heaviness which was pulling me from writing these days but today I let that go and I’m very happy for that.

Try to kindle a hero in a villain, not a villain in a hero!!!😊

Have such a beautiful sight and heart which can recognize and further evoke even the best in the worst!!!

Melody for a melodious soul!

“30-08-2018”

You must be wondering why I’ve written this date! August 30 – It’s my friend’s b’day today!!!

Happy B’day Krishna! 

You might not know her. Trying to spot her in the pic! There she is the one at the left in light blue in a jovial mood! So, I shall give you a brief introduction first! She is a very sweet, kind and easy-going person, the one with whom you would love to spend your time – as I do! Moreover, it’s her angelic voice which makes her stand atop the crowd!

The Mystic Lady!

It was a bright sunny day. Raj was playing in the garden; suddenly he heard something moving behind the thorny bushes. His spine turned cold as he saw a dark shadow emerging across the long grass. The little boy gathered some valour and threw a stone at it but all at once it vanished.

Let’s be all smiles!!!

Hi Friends! How are you?

I hope “All smiles!” Just be happy and enjoy reading whatever you find here. Today, I’m not writing on a particular topic, just speaking the random chirruping of my heart!

A Dark Night!

It was a dark night!

I was a little in fright,

Trembling under the bed,

My face had turned red.

“THE SCARY HALLOWEEN”

It was the last day of October, a colder one and nearly half past ten when Johnny woke up from his cosy bed. As he stepped into the hall, he was startled . to see that all the furniture had been shifted to a corner and pumpkins were scattered on the floor. The boy searched for his mother but did not get a glimpse of her. His jaw dropped as he heard a sound from the basement which was locked for the past two years.

गुहार एक माँ की …

निर्मल नदियों की माला पहने
धारण कर जीवनदायी वृक्षों के गहने,
थी कभी तू ऐसी माँ
फिर किसने बदला यह खूबसूरत समां ?

Letters! A treasure of our emotions!

 

I personally feel that letters are the optimum means to convey what we truly feel. They literally open our heart and provide us a platform to reveal ourselves. But these days we’ve confined ourselves to short messages and that too abbreviated!

Never lose hope friends! Always look for solutions as every question mark (?) has a full stop (.) !!!

 

Never ever in your life lose hope!!!

A man is not made to do mistakes but to rectify them and learn!!! 😊😊😊👍👍👍✌

A thanking note!!!

Today as I’m sitting in front of my laptop and wondering what if I’d never started writing, what if I’d just not started blogging! How incomplete I would’ve felt! God knows what hollowness I would’ve been experiencing! 

But of course that vacuum has been filled with pleasant memories and experiences  because I’m doing something which I immensely love to! I’ve got a platform to express whatever I want to.

Encounter with an Easter Monkey!!!🐒

Once upon a time, a railway line passed through a dense forest. The railway signal was fixed near a tall tree on which a big monkey lived. He observed a dark-coloured boy in vest and shorts approaching the railway station anxiously. The boy with tangled hair sat at the station with his neatly tied pile of newspaper. Very earnestly he took out a newspaper and began reading it thoroughly. As soon as he heard the roar of the train, he stood up alarmingly and after its arrival went inside quickly to distribute the papers.

Care for the Elderly!!!

Money! Money! Money!

People now-a-days are exorbitantly passionate about procuring this five letter word and can cross any damn limit to gain it! They even find their parents a liability and reckon that spending on their elders is a mere wastage of their hard-earned money. Some of them are so treacherous that they are after usurping their parent’s property and assets without a speck of shame.

सर्वहारा वर्ग

अश्रु बहे इन आँखों से तब
उन कोमल हाथों को देखा जब,
लीन थे अपने कार्य में वे
घिरे हुए पटाखों के ढेर से,
कटे पिटे थे उनके हाथ!
कर दो कृपा उनपर हे नाथ!!!

THE NEW VISION – INDIA!!!

INDIA – My Motherland! My Dreamland! My Destination!

Recognised as one of the developing countries of the world, India is progressing at a very fast pace. We have reached the “Mars” and the “Bullet Train” is soon going to run on the Indian tracks. Whether in the field of sports or music, movies or science Indians are discovering new avenues and flourishing like blossoms of the spring.

    

The Magical Scarlet Rose!!!

 

A young girl in her early twenties dressed in an eyelet emerald top paired with a bright yellow skirt was heading towards the temple in anxiety. She was such a skinny and frail figure who would’ve fallen eventually even if patted by someone. Though she’d studied hard, an air of nervousness had descended upon her pale face.

About Me!

Hello friends. I am Bhavya Malhotra. It’s a pleasure to meet you all virtually. I’m just a little bud who will fortunately blossom into a flower some day but will always retain and would carry within her, her spontaneity and childlike humour and innocence. Hope you’ll enjoy the stuff this munchkin would provide you for your edification. I’ll keep uploading my views and stories over here if possible weekly. So I hope you’re there to bless me and wish me all the best! Thank You!
