stopping by the woods on snowy evening..


Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
-Robert Frost.

Even a single shine can win



One song can spark a moment,
 One flower can wake the dream
 One tree can start a forest,
 One bird can herald spring.
One smile begins a friendship,
 One handclasp lifts a soul.
 One star can guide a ship at sea,
 One word can frame the goal
One vote can change a nation,
 One sunbeam lights a room
 One candle wipes out darkness,
 One laugh will conquer gloom.
One step must start each journey.
 One word must start each prayer.
 One hope will raise our spirits,
 One touch can show you care.
One voice can speak with wisdom,
 One heart can know what’s true,
One life can make a difference,
 You see, it’s up to you!

-unknown
In a world filled with changes
each and every day..
I feel I’m being judged
for what I do n say..
I remember back to Barbies
and play days at the park..
When I didn’t worry about
other people’s remarks..
Now lookin in the mirror
I see to my surprise..
A completely different person
staring in my eyes..
The care free little girl
I saw at 4 and 5..
Is now becoming a teen..
Just trying to survive...

who I am?

Going by my passport
they called me indian abroad
but in my own land
I dont know who I am

In south Africa I am coloured
In USA I am minus red
to the English I am a wog
I still dont know who I am

beyond the vidhyas I am a southie
or mere often a Madrasi
In Madras I am a malayalee
does anyone know who I am?


To the muslims I am a hindu
To the hindus I am a brahmin
or some other caste name
do tell me who I am


if I am to be known by language
or worse by relegion and caste
sometimes even by my race
who can say who I am?


I wish theyd call me Indian
and be done with it,
not bother with anything else
so that for good I know who I am
