If I asked my doctor THAT he’d probably say, “Well, seems like your fever, again. Blood pressure seems normal, though...” Sigh!
You know how we all, always, complain about the illegibility of various physicians’ handwritings? Yeah, well, indecipherable writing isn’t the only thing that’s plaguing our medical professionals. Along with, Handwriting 101, there is a desperate need to introduce a refresher...
Ghosts of her past
A hidden key, a rusty lock,
Unused and abandoned,
But still right where she had left them,
Just like the ghosts of her past
A withered flower
Hidden betwixt pages
Of a dog-eared diary
On which were scribbled words
Describing emotions she could no longer summon
A colorless picture
In a worn...
Finally...
Surreal night,
Odd sense of peace descending,
Burying all worries,
Was it denial?
Or finally, acceptance?
Weightless,
And hurtling through space,
Following an infinite golden light,
Was it goodbye?
Or finally, a homecoming?
Breathless,
Heart a-flutter,
A gasp and a sigh,
Heavy eyelids,...
Life behind purple tinted glasses
In that moment her sunglasses were her best friends.
Tainted emotions that on her heart heavily weighed,
That her treacherous eyes betrayed
Behind purple tinted glasses lay entrapped.
Only hidden, not overcome
Out of sight but choking her mind
Escaping the only way they could find
Through soft tears that hard frames couldn't stop
She freed her hair from its rigid restraints
And she let...
Fool for you!
Oh! What woe we cause ourselves
Over finding love that is forever and true
We fret and fawn, meddle and moan,
Turn into varied shades of red,green and blue!

Who is gentle as the moon
And bright as the sun
Our heart goes into a swoon
And our mind screams "He's THE ONE"
Every good deed is magnified
And flaws (if any) are vilified
Hellbent on discovering our soulmate...
Liberation
She lay there, slightly a-flutter
Reluctant to take the leap and fly
He held her in his boyish hands
And with virgin thrill threw her to the sky
She quivered and she shivered
As the indifferent wind chilled her spine
She sagged back and rested limp where
On the walled terrace, she knew she'd be fine
Worried yet eager, he ran toward her
As if knowing she wanted to be reassured
And he whispered...
Invaluable
Like the pair of stilettos,
that once adorned her resilient feet,
lending them grace and softness...
As she stood in them,
tall and straight,
the world looked up to her
and she stared back at life,
a smile on her lips and challenge in her eyes...
They had walked with her through the mundane,
and when she danced her happy-dance,
they tapped in rhythmic joy,
and when she sat on the cold floor,
with...
