He came, I saw, he conquered, Smitten, I quietly pondered. What was it about him that made me blush, His eyes were hypnotic, his voice sent a rush. Genuinely caring he'd hold my hand, And I would skip a beat, just quietly stand. He'd flirt & I'd flirt right back, Innocence it was, tact he lacked. A man of his word, he'd care for everyone, Loved his beer and for a puff he'd run, Jokes apart, a loving friend I found, In a world of fakes all around...

As I walked along the crooked lanes, I saw those creaky window panes. They wondered where we all were rushing, Looked like an excited river gushing. A girl stood by the window pane, She saw us hurrying like people insane. What were we seeking she thought, With time all of us regularly fought. There was no leisure, no time to relax, We were burdened with life’s dreaded tax. We paid in kind everyday, There was only work, no rest, no play. Finally I decided to take a stand, Thought my slavery ought to be banned. Stopped surviving as per the mighty clocks, And began living a leisurely life that rocks!!!

Where did those days go, When a yes was a yes, and no a no? It’s a complex world we live in, Where truth loses and lies win. She waited hoping for the best, It turned out to be tricky test. Finally she figured that love was always there, Stopped fearing she took the dare. Began loving herself instead of waiting, Redefined life, it was happiness that she was dating!

Wandering like butterflies, we seldom meet, Once in a year we get to greet. Paper or cloth, we are made of stuff you call sheets, Soaring high up in the sky, we feel your heartbeats. Colours of joy, colours of fun, We splash them in the sky for everyone. Call us kites or carpets unfurled, We are butterflies playing with your world!

What you wear mirrors the kind of person you are so be very careful as you move out of the secure doors of colleges and homes and step into the brutal corporate as you’re under the scanner 24*7 What you wear definitely speaks volumes about who you are and how you want to be treated. Loose pair of clothes with disaster slippers, sloppy hair and no makeup are perfect indicators of disinterest and defiance. Men  with the unshaven raw look and messy hair with sleepy eyes also lose the race way before it even began.You are being judged every single minute and you have no idea how bad an impression you create when you decide not to act sane and professional in a corporate setup. Here are a few tips I would love to share with you when it comes to dressing up for a corporate or classy set up CHIC ATTIRE The easiest way of creating a lasting impression amidst strangers is by dressing for the occasion. This doesn’t mean you spend a bomb on your clothes every time you go for me...

Sometimes I feel what if I wasn't me, what if I was a butterfly flying with glee. What would I do to be happy? Stroll in the gardens feeling shy or crappy! It's so mesmerizing to watch these birds take flight, Butterflies remind you to lay low and fly high with might. It's not about power, prestige or pride, These birds i call butterflies make for such amazing brides. They love to sit on flowers and buds, Soft like melted butter and shine like diamond studs. Each flight teaches them a lesson, they never really fail, Be it good or bad, Butterflies do live a fairy tale!

Armed with simplicity, dressed in jet black, Just a genuine smile, diplomacy he did lack, Wasn't too long since we got to know each other, But with him around, the time would no longer bother Those eyes spoke volumes, had big dreams and a few fears too I would visit the world through them, oh! it was so true. Hiding some pain amidst the adorable smile, Absolutely innocent, he’d woo me every once in a while. A connoisseur of art and all things fine, A lover of independence, he shared a dream just like mine His presence was a touch of soulful melody, With him, life seemed like a lovely fairy tale, not a random parody!

A pleasant smile, with those hypnotic eyes, Naughty to the core, but a welcome surprise, Loves to fight and brings out the beast in me, Then innocently winks saying, 'Come on, let it be! Somehow my ego takes a back seat and winks, It wants to know what this guy actually thinks! He brightens up my day effortlessly, And I fall for him hopelessly. That husky voice, Oh! the enchanting gaze, Make me addicted, it's such a 'craze' With utmost simplicity, he wins over my heart, And Cupid dances as he perfectly hits the random dart.

Many moons ago, there was someone I didn't know, Not very friendly, but she liked to go with the flow. 'Silence', she was called, came to meet a select few, As a kid, ‘noise’ was all that I knew! Fun, laughter and lots of merry-making, No worries or fears about people faking. 'Trust' was a familiar word, easy to believe, I wouldn't feel hurt too often, it was easy to forgive. Gradually, I understood what ‘quiet’ meant, In memory making, time was happily spent. Indulged in s tar-gazing and watched seasons taking twists & turns,  Fell for words, blushed at poems and laughed at jokes  & puns. Befriended emotions and feelings. To my surprise, Silence was indeed noisy, she had the powers to lovingly mesmerise!

We never really grow up, we just age, Everyone’s naughty, no one’s a sage! Little pleasures of life are what we crave for, making us feel like kids once more. Be it doing the ‘boogie woogie’ or singing our hearts out, And living without knowing the meaning of the word ‘doubt’. It’s never too late to begin as they say, Happiness awaits your attention, just smile, come what may! It’s when you’re wondering how horrible things could get, the incredible happens, ‘serendipity’ you've met. Befriend her and break free, Life’s fun...if you let it be!
