Ode to the Moon

Nature has lot many ways to speak to you. It talks through the winds, the trees, its shadeas, birds but sometime it reaches you in the most unimaginable forms like a crab reaching for your foot or colorful shells lying on the beach waiting to be picked up. But, nothing is more beautiful than a full moon, partially hidden by clouds, casting its light on the waves of sea. It almost seemed to me as the dacing waves were callimg them to me to reach out for them. Well, I have tried hard to put the beautful image which resides within me into words. So, enjoy.


Oh! Moon why are you so beautiful, but far?
So far, that I can never reach you,
Thus, this time I made a boat,
And, I will row until I reach you.
You are cold and bright in the night,
Surrounded by millions of stars,
For that I envy you,
So let me come and be with you,
But, don't you cast your light on sea,
When I am all set to sail,
For, I will get lost in the beauty of your light,
Falling on the surface of sea,
Like a sparkling jewel of life,
And, if the sea wind blows,
I may never board the boat,
For, my mind will be floating with the wind,
Touching the shells, hammering the waves,
Grooving with the swirls of sea,
And, the thought of wet sands under my feet,
With those tiny crabs crawling around,
And when the light house shines it light,
I must now rethink my stance.
Oh! Moon pardon me,
I will better stay in this land,
Beautiful and majestic,
But, don't you get grumpy and hide in clouds,
You still will be my favourite at the night sky,
For it is you who shines this bright,
Which makes the twinkling starlight.
And, then my heart may rest in peace,
Dancing, rejoycing with ease.

WHY BLOGGING?

Image
"love and hate is the mother of all causes and everything which we see" I have asked this question to  myself   for a long time. Should I write a blog or else I should be happy with mere dear diary moments. Then I stumbled upon a blog. It would be fair to accept it was the blog of my senior. I was overwhelmed by the noble proposition that she had put in front of me. Despite the exams, she ignited the long lost question within me! Should I write a blog or remain with same old dear diary moments. Talking about the  circumstances   I would say that that was the only reason that I chose to be with you guys! I don't know when I will be able to write up to you, but this much is sure that I also want the share the stories how-so-ever cooked up and spiced that are coming to me. In every body's life there comes a situation of “trans” which my teacher usually call as “+ve infinity”. But still now I don't know why she calls it like this! Which is momentary and

India’s Growth in Nehru Era

Image
The formation of  the planning commission in 1950 and the death in office of J.L Nehru in 1964 marks the Nehru era, which served as the base for growth that transformed a stagnant colonial enclave. Upon analysing data, we find formidable evidence not only of resurgent growth but also of a lasting transformation of a stagnant colonial enclave into an economy capable of sustained growth. However, in the public sphere, there is an unusual degree of interest in the Nehru era. Much of this is negative which is buoyed by the extraordinary current rates of growth of the Indian economy, so much so that Das and Srinivasan termed it as “wasted past”. Moreover, a positive charge for support comes from a more academic direction. The year of 1950  marks a watershed as far as economic growth is concerned. The post-colonial economic policy aimed to make a break from the immediate past. Looking at the relationship between public policy and economic growth in the Nehru era serves two purpos

LONELINESS, IS IT A PROBLEM?

There is a moment in life when you find anything in scrambled letters, any shape in shapeless clouds, your ringtone keeps humming in mind. This is the moment or the way I prefer it feeling lonely, or in a better manner congratulation the lonely phase of your life has just begun! Sit back, hold tight for you may fall a lot in these times.It the time when you need a hug when you are so desperate that you even talk to your pets(can be imaginary too :P) or cajole yourself in the happening world dreams. In this time, you feel so lonely that even time seems to cease and seconds turns to hours. I know this loneliness comes to everyone's life. More ever it is a general phase of life. You believe it or not but according to a report that too on college goers it got stated as a fact. Even among us girls are the most lonely. This may be a persisting problem in front of us but the fact is this is the sole reason for the most of the problems that we face in our life afterwards as depression,
