Friendly Addiction: Unlimited Interactions

  In life, we get all kinds of friends, some close, some closer, some strangers, some travelers. In my experience, at one point in my life, I had more than 500 friends, during my school days back in Carmel Convent School, Hamirpur, Rourkela. My parents would constantly see me getting phone calls, and visitors independent of their demographics.      My father would smile and say, "Jenny, are you an IAS officer?, that you get so many calls in a day?" . I used to laugh in response and say, "Paa, they all want me to solve their problems, and I love the attention".     How did this happen?, it didn't happen when I started school, trust me, I was really shy, hardly talking and surprisingly even my teachers in kindergarten had escalated issues, stating that I don't even show classwork to teachers during the class. I was the youngest, in my father's family and I had a total of 6 elder cousins to look upto, including my elder brother. When I started school...

The Gift

What do you want ?
It’s your birthday..


Want to be a child..
All day outdoors as I stay..
Sweating profusely ignoring which I play.
Want to go wild..
Nakedly running around..
Flying away the lost kite that I found..
Lying dirty in the runway.


Want to play blind fold..
With a friend as I scold..
Pushing back loosening my hold.
Tricking me into the cave too old..
But when I open to see they are walking beside all the way.


Want to chase a butterfly..
Through the morning sky.
Touching as it flickers with a blink..
Sparing not even a slightest moment to think.


Want to jump into the river..
Splashing water all over..
Icy cold as lips shiver.
Opening to a lost world..
Diving into happiness profound.
While listening to the soothing sound..
Pulling myself to the ground..
Staring at the shore..
I will wait don’t you worry..
When you feel like come around.
