On her frail shoulders, the threads of Pashmina talk. Of a valley, of heaven, of a moonlit night. Demure, she froze amidst the discordant noise, Charred bodies around her, her flesh and blood died. On moonlit nights, hence she walks barefoot on the snow, Suffering within and out, I can listen, what her silence speaks out loud. Deranged, Demented, She drags her body around, Unaware, Listless, what she has lost can never be found. I call her, whenever she passes by me, I have been piling up sorrows as debris. Come! My child Let me hear your pain, Let me soothe your wounds, Let me jostle your soul, So you shed a tear. I know your pain, I have done all this myself, And I have been there. This poem narrates the sufferings of women who lost their families in Kashmir Valley. *Disclaimer - Title is inspired by Sonnet 30 of Shakespeare.
Exercise and healthy eating are the key...
ReplyDeleteTrue that!
DeleteThat is the gist of a healthy and happy life:)
ReplyDeleteRight, balanced diet and light exercise are the most important factors for healthy living.
DeleteThat site has no option for comment that's why writing here. I am amazed the way our thoughts match here. Points I have made in my article that got published in Women's Era this January.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I strongly believe that reducing sugar intake helps a lot! And, counting calories triggers psychologically. Some of your ideas are helpful. The big difference here is that you have achieved and I'm still making points, preaching and trying!
I so want to read your article. Please share it whenever you can. These day even I am in the 'trying zone.' I have put on 6-7 pounds this winter. Have to shed it before summer. Thanks for reading, Tarang.
