The Story Of An Untold Paradise Kandarpur: Summers - Go Fish !

    The temperatures were rising, maybe a 100 to a 120 fahrenheit, the expression across the state of Odisha was that, "It's Hot !", while somewhere around 11.8 miles from Cuttack, things were looking otherwise for this one house out of 150 other houses. The reason wasn't good food, or great air conditioner, nor great entertainment gadgets, the reason was the experience of a lifetime.    For my Ajja ( Mom's father), what made him chirpier than usual were his kids and grand kids around his ranch during summer, the ranch, that he had built as a dream, thinking that some day in future, all his kids will stay there and would have enough room for additional innovations, if necessary.

Buttons & Thread

It's a world of pants and shirts
It's a world where whatever you say doesn't matter..
It's a world where you can try to change but why do so?
It's a world where whatever you say gets interrupted by no you can't do...
It's a world where you can choose not to say but people will say you practice voodoo..

It's a world of skirts and dresses
It's a world where you go around in circles and might as well fall..
It's a world where your scars can be seen but no one asks how have you been..
It's a world where a piece of fabric is torn, as someone unintentionally ripped you open..
It's a world where you can choose to live alone but people will say you are broken..

It's a world of buttons and thread after all
What you want isn't what you found wide spread ..
When you want to leave, nobody wants you to..
But when you don't, people just skin you thin..
Like the pin that pierces the button..
While the button gets strapped even though it's 
Trapped with a different thread inside..
