I dont know who!!

It was just the other day,

Dear Uncle fell down in the alleyway,

Because, in the alley, to his dismay,

A Banana peel got thrown away.

Every soul in the block did say,

Find the one who did, if u may!!

On another of such dreaded times,

Whilst I was looking for a word that rhymes,

I looked up to the ringing wind chimes,

Instead the sound was of falling dimes,

And again, the chorus wines,

Who left open the box of collected fines??

Life was again moving at its regular beat,

A little child was playing in the street,

Unaware of the fate he could meet,

If the flying urn that fell at his feet,

Had not suffered all that heat,

To name the hand that it hath just greet.

On occasions such and many more,

That someday may become part of the lore,

Sit and wonder is all I do,

To look for the one did it all who,

Left the peel, to close the box forgot,

Threw the urn and GOD knows what not??

Cause all that ever came here were but us,

One of we it had to be thus,

Or may be each one had,

Now or then been equally bad,

And thus the outcome we all fear,

Of being the one who would the blame bear,

And hence we would never know,

As to who really did so??

Since answer the question we always do,

By saying “I don’t know who”!!







P.S. I know its weird!!

Help me!!...Please read this before reading the silver hawks

This is just the first draft, just wanted to pen down an idea I had and this is how it has started to shape up. I don’t know if it is worth the effort or even if it is worth reading once, but I do wish to complete this, though frankly, that might take ages. What I have done here is just introduced my primary characters with a little backdrop to the story. If even one person is able to grasp the characters as I perceived them, well, ill be more than glad.

This isn’t the first chapter in its full but the basic essence is there.

Feel free to tell me I suck at this, but please also tell me ways to improve the story, help me with this, and yes, this is my first shot at writing anything, so please be a little merciful

The Silver Hawks

This chapter is going under minor changses..ill post it up next when it is completed..
for neone who is interested...the second chapter is called: The Race on the moon [:)]

Nostalgia

never goes away does it!!.....
when u r walkin by a garden...u see somebody and have a fleeting impression of a friend waving at u...and the next moment, the impression may b gone...but it does leave u with a faint smile....
Its not been long..as in...i just left college some 3 months ago...(GOD..3 months!!)...n i m still in college technically albeit a diffeent one..but the thing is....in some way or the other...it just stays,...
since i m in a college..i m around so many people...n since this is mba....probably i shud have moved on...but the harder i try..the tougher it seems to be...the people out there were in a very unique way..my folks...my own in a manner...to them i was able to attribute something of myself...
may be these things cant b put into words...but as i m trying to gain a footing here...the remorse of loosing mine there...n the fear..that even if i make one here...20 months hence, again i shall have to depart...sometimes draws me into that solitary state..n then only words i can think of are
If Only
if only u had a pause button in life...life cud have been so much happier!!

Catch 21

Note: This ones been coming a long time...n probably will undergo a lot of edits...ne comments are welcome!!
Also Note: This has nothing to do with Mr. hellars catch 22(though i do admire the book)...so dont ask me fr ne connections!!
Here I go...cheers!!

I remember the night so vivdly like it was yesterday. The night of the 24th of september 2006. It was a sunday. As was usual in those times, i had spent my weekend in chandigarh (i love that city!!). Took the 9:00 clock bus that night which meant i wud b back at college(engineering college that is) at 3. Those of u who have read my profile might recollect that next day wud b my birthday...
and here i was...looking at the watch..waiting for the watch to strike 12 (i know clocks are supposed to do the striking part, but i only had a watch [:(] ) sitting beside a gud old fren (dear muchu, for those who must know) who was snoring loudly into the night. The notion that was bothering me was..."Hel, ill be 21 in a few hours !!". I had always known that u r supposed to become adults when u r 21 but the gravity of the situation hit me at that very point.


Terrible thought: I must admit i was a little scared, i didnt know what all was expeeted off an adult, was i supposed to be somebody else, overnight, somebody much more respomsible, thoughfull and all that crap adults are..(no offence adults...pls)... i mean i was still a kid...a huge one yes..but a kid all the same...y did i need to be all that..i was happy being what i was....i still wanted to enjoy my life....i still needed to work on it..(apart from everything else, i was still single..[;)] )....
Nehow..somehow i managed to solace myself into an understanding...

Next terrible thought : " Such a momentous occasion in my life and i m spending it in a weird bumpy bus with a snoring fatso..(sorry mucchu, but fact hai!!)...hell...wud neone even remember....does neone even care....

More terible thoughts: M i obssesed with myself, m i a narcissist, y m i thinking so much about myself, cant i just cool off, its only a birthday for GODS sake, its not like it comes only once a year....hold on..it does..doesn't it??..GOD..help me...!!!

Weird Thought: Does everyone who turns 21 think like this....does becoming an adult mean becoming all weird like this..( seems like quite a high probability)....come to think of it..WHAT DOES ONE THINK WHEN HE/SHE (or may be i should just rite he coz m not so sure females can think, atleast not at the age of 21...[:)]) TURNS 21!!....what is it that makes them an adult...??

Weirder Answer: If i knew, i wudnt be 21!! CATCH 21..

Conclusion:
Its Been almost an year of being 21...i have learnt this....

NOTHING.
.CATCH 21 eh??..

But then...lets face it...who the hell gives a damn...ill b an adult when i want to..as of now...Lets Party!!

What Happened next: I got a call from most of my frens, muchu( ya the snoring fatso) also wished me , and so did my parents. I was in quite a merry mood hence and devoid of ne more weird thoughts. And for ne females that did call me the following day, for a change i did not use any ideas which could possibly be mentioned in dummies guide to talking to females. May be being 21 does change u a bit.AHHHHH!!

P.S. I always wanted to say this..if u r a fren n did wish me that night...even if u thot of doin so..thanks a tonne..probably it meant a lot..

Again Note: There is no book called dummies handbook to talking to girls...dont go lookin for it!!..
and ya...i did mention that i was single....but dont take thae otherwise..[;)]

and ya people...no offences meant!!

And i m back!!

i started this blog more than an year ego...never got the hang of this thing though...
its 2:30 in the night, i have my exams goin on, have just seen a movie...n somehow..i still manage to feel a litlle "vella"...so i have decided i m gonna give this thing nother shot!!...
bless me!!!
