Poetry

Its poetry wen u gaze at the stars and wonder y they twinkle at u from a distance
Its poetry wen u walk barefoot over dewy grass and feel the cool blades of grass brush against ur ankle
Its poetry when u r content to gaze into the horizon sitting beside the person who hears u even wen u r silent
Its poetry wen u listen to ur favourite song and lapse into thoughts forgetting to listen to the rest of the song
Its poetry when u wake up in the morning happy to be alive and healthy
Poetry doesnt need to rhyme with rhythmic verses nor does it need perfect words
Poetry is found in the simple pleasures of life

My Mom would have turned 60 today if not for a fateful disease named Cancer.

A woman of indomitable spirit and courage, she battled against odds till her last breath smiling till she couldn't take it anymore. 

Blah

Its been a very long time I have written anything anywhere. Except for comments in social networking sites or a few letters to the editor my writing has nearly come to a standstill. As much as I am ashamed and aghast by it I cannot think of anything to write a about.

Recently a friend of mine asked if I had a blog.  A blog made a couple of years aho with just a nameless ranting for a post.  Does that make me a blogger! Nope. Blogging is also a responsibility, it is for people who are passionate about issues or who pursue multiple hobbies who can succeed at blogging.  The point I am trying to drive home is that I am none of 6 the above.  Off late, I have come to realise that quarter of a century has passed by in this world with me in it. I live in this wired world. The Internet grew up with me, we both took our first stumbling steps together, almost like siblings and still I haven't been heard through it!

That's when I decided to revive this unused blog.

cannot think of a title to this

Writing is not that difficult for me. But, when there are loads of things running through your mind and you are thinking of writing something just so that you can end the constant turmoil in your brain! Now, its not easy to think of a topic and assemble intelligible sentences on it! Phew! That's the case now! I just have no idea what topic to write about! Its fine to channel your thoughts on a certain subject or person or whatever! But when asked to deliver a 500- page report on it??? There! You are at a loss!

Then, you may ask me why I am starting a blog??! That's another question i cannot answer. Anyway, its not to showcase my brilliant writing skills, that's for sure! Or is it a means to escape reality??? Ummm....I am not sure about that too. The one valid reason is to check how many people are jobless enough to glance through this stuff! Now, that does make me feel good about myself, because, i get to meet people like me!

The above two paragraphs is not by a loony soul. Its the work of  a Final Year Engineering Student just on the verge of exams and an endless blank future staring right back. Now is it easy to understand this title- less piece of a post???!
