Words...My Words...


It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away.
 And I hope, I do that sometimes...

This is the 100th post on this blog. Well, to call it a blog is an understatement. It is a part of me now. I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for being a part of my journey. Here's what I think of Words...

Vagabond I am...
Tuning life with verses and phrase.
Scribbling essence in black ink,
A legacy I'll take to my grave.
Out-shining this world,
Living a million lives in a single day.
With words, my words,
Words, those are,
Slightly salty, slightly stray...

Looking forward to hearing what you think of me and my words.

  3. When I registered on IndiBlogger, on the first day, I was very clueless, just working my way around. I stumbled upon something called IndiVine and the most popular post at that moment on IndiVine was "I am not Alone", clicked on it, read, was absolutely mesmerized by your "Words" and have been mesmerized ever since. My journey in the blogosphere started with your post 14 months ago and its been an absolute privilege reading you. I wait with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement every single Monday for your posts, I may miss reading anybody else' posts but I never miss yours. You have been an inspiration to me and will always continue to be.

    Its been such a wonderful journey, Saru. I have seen you evolving as an author since the past 14 months, love your serious love poems as well as your "Tharki" ones. Have immense respect for the issues and causes you choose to write about, using your huge readership to spread awareness about issues which need utmost attention. Along the way, I came to love your contest entries which showed a completely different side of you as a writer. Writing in two or more languages is so difficult but you showed how equally proficient you are in English as well as Hindi. Your poems in Hindi especially are absolute gems. You also accomplished one more thing which you can proudly display on your resume, 'Published Author'. I am the happiest for all your accomplishments. :)

    There are so many other things I want to say here, not sure what else to say. Thank you for being such a good friend and mentor. Congratulations on the 100th post. I wish you many more such milestones in future. :)

    1. As I told you, I was speechless and had tears in my eyes after reading your comment. It made me nostalgic as 'I am not alone' is one poem which gave me many readers and friends. You have summed up my journey in such beautiful and honest words and honestly, this is exactly what I think of myself. My hindi poems are better, I am evolving but that is because of readers like you and being published was really special.

      When someone understands you as you are, you feel so good. Never thought people connect so well in virtual world too.

      Can't thank you enough. Also, some relationships are beyond thank yous...:)

  4. Who else can define or relate words so beautifully like you do. Offcourse, legacy of words , you will take to your grave.
    No doubts your words are not words anymore,
    they now have become the soul of your.
    I don't know what you did, but you impressed the words so much, and now they don't want to leave you. And this does not happened with everyone, for this, clearity of mind and soul are required, which I think you have in abundance.

    Keep surprising us, keep hitting our heart, keep rocking! That's all I want to say....
    Cheers!!! :)

  8. Saru, your 'Words' hold deep meanings and importance not just for you, but for all your readers. Apart from these wonderful poems that you churn out here, you are also a great motivator and an ardent reader of all the blogs that you follow! I can neatly say, I conitued to write poems because you felt they were of some worth. Many many congratulations on this milestone and here's to more and more 100s... and now about this poem -> A legacy I would take to my grave. Summed up just perfectly. That was the best line for me :-)

  28. Saru.. A lovely sweet little poem that in your own magical words describe what these "Words" mean to you. To me, you own words. As water takes of the form of whatever it fills, words take the form you give them. They flow through the crevices of your mind, heart and soul and come out in the form of thoughts and emotions that delight, tickle and ignite our senses. Your poems are meaningful, potent and artistic to an equal measure.

    On a personal level, I am in awe of your writing. Plain and simple. I am also fascinated by your gentle and kind personality and I thank you for being such a wonderful friend. Your words are a part of my life as I look forward to every gem your mind and pen produce. And last but not the least.. poetry is one genre I have never even had the nerve to make an attempt at writing. And you are the best poet I have ever read and will probably ever read. :)

    Congratulations and look forward to the pleasure of countless "words" from you. :)

    1. Raj, you make us look less talented when you write prose. Your prose has poetry and please don't attempt to write poems as I won't be able to match your high standards :P

      And more than blogging connection we have, I cherish our personal bond of friendship. It is such a blessing to find friends like you. Thank you for such beautiful comments which btw are unique in itself. As I always say, you make us all speechless with your comments too. So, you can imagine what effect your posts have on us.

      Thanks again for gracing this space. :)

    2. Saru.. :) You made my day by your lovely words. Your friendship is one I cherish so much and I wouldn't have enough words to describe and appreciate. I am truly blessed to have friends like you. :) You are truly a wonderful person. And you are one of those special people who have made my blogging journey really memorable.

      Thank you so much for your lovely words about my writing (and generous praise ;)). I am honored. Writing poems is such an art and I sure won't try it as I know how difficult it is. :) And you are a fascinating poet and the best one I have read. :)

      And yeah.. I really loved Akshay's comment as well. Very sweet and from the heart. :)

      P.S: As I have said before.. It is your lovely and fascinating poems and articles that bring out nice comments from me. So the credit goes completely to you. ;)

And keeping my feet grounded is quite essential and I will quote one of my FB statuses here, 'When success goes to your head, you are dead.' Not that I feel I am successful but I truly cherish whatever I have achieved and would love to be like this forever...

    Thanks for being a part of my life. You're special! :)
