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...

A Cup Of Tea




Says a lot
Makes me steal a thought
Or two..
Takes me through a journey of stories
Quiet a few..
Where conversations 
Made eyes giggle..
Where someone had no clue..
That their morning was slipping through..

A Cup of tea..
On a train..
With the hustle and bustle of 
Fellow passengers..
Who were strangers last night..
But now you are wondering..
When will her brother stop the fight...
And when the next stop comes..
Will the boy get his kite that flew right over..


A Cup of tea..
While chasing your baby
Your tea gets cold..
But you sip it at one gulp..
As you hold her tight..
When she puts up a fight..
Not to go to school..
As even you don't want to get her out of sight...

A Cup of tea..
With friends in town..
They end up waking up early..
And you smell the cardamom flavor..
The chatter goes louder with every sip..
You find it harder to keep away..
From the last tip of a remaining cookie..
While you ask your friend to make another
Cup of tea...
