You woke me up ...

I would not have picked up the phone
if it was someone else on the line.

I would never mind being sleep deprived
if your call makes me feel revived.

I had went late to bed thinking of you
oh I dont know where did you go.
I went to bed but still I missed you

I slowly dozed off and did not know when
Rolled over the bed again and again.

Being sleepless is not new to me
You may also know how it is to be
being miles away and not seeing each other.

We might have differences
but I will always wait with patience
to meet you or at least to hear your voice.

Ah! finally my phone vibrates
It is going to be another beautiful day
needless to say
I woke up to your phone call as always.
You have made my day!

I wanna travel the world with you...

* Yellow Stone National Park
* Death Valley
* Sequoia National Park
* New York / Manhattan
* Philadelphia
* Atlantic City
* Howe's Cave

This is apart from several visits to places in the Bay Area.
Ooh its a huge list in 4-6 months considering that I was at home during Thanks Giving and Christmas holidays!

In the past few days, I have been thinking I should go on a trip again.

I dont seem to be satisified with the visits I have made to these places. Either I did not spend enough quality time there or these places are so appealing that they are worth another visit.

A trip to India is also due.

This is how my calendar looks now:

So far I have never planned and made a trip. May be that explains why I always felt that I had missed something at the end of every trip.

This year I have already lost 3 months. Let see how many new places I visit and how satisfied I would be at the end of every trip.

I would be more than happy to go NY once by end of this year!

Stand and stare, its worth the time

It is yet another working day.
So what? there could be no better way
to make a head start on this Monday.

Picking up my laptop I walked away
from my house, running towards the pathway
humming the Jamaican reggae.

Wait a moment. Dont rush through
You have got something to view.

What I saw was Spring time classic
Flowers of pink were a sight fantastic.
all "placed" on my car as a graphic.

For a moment the day was not hectic,
I felt, It was a piece of nature's gimmic.
A theme for a poet's lyric.

It was warm and cloudy
felt better even though it was windy.

You got a meeting at nine.
So what? Its all going to be fine.
Stand and stare, its worth the time.

You may not get to see this again.

Chak de India

Its alright you made a mistake.
Its not now to play the blame game.

Everyone knew he was a committed player
You had a great trust in him and so
you chose him to be the penalty striker.

You thought he was so special
You wanted him to go to the next level.

He was feeling so elated
when he was called upon.
He wanted your wish to be granted.

Your interst can not be ridiculed
His ambitions suddenly got refueled.

The time has come to shoot out
We have done all the required work out.

He walks towards the goal, head held high
You wanted him to give a genuine try.

After he shot at it,he could hear the people sigh
he had missed, he drowned and was shy.

It was all over for him, his fate?
But others who saw the match could not relate.
He was called a traitor.

Chak de India!

He came back to prove everyone wrong.
You might be right, he is special and great.

You dont have to feel bad to have picked on him
to have a go at the goal.
He realised he is special
He thanks you for you felt he was great.

Chak de India!

On my way to ...

I left you 2 years ago
I did not know what was to follow.

I did not know I am going too far
I did not know I am going to miss your love and care.

Here I made some new friends
I spent time with them all weekends.

This was my new life, I thought
This was my old dream, I knew.

I dont remember how you look
I failed to see you in my phone book.

All these did not bother me
I was all lucky and happy.

But today, I spoke to you.
This whole world looks new.

I feel I dont belong here any more
What happened to me? I am unsure.

How did I forget you?
Why did not I chat with you on yahoo?

The moment you said, "I miss you"
It pricked me, What am I going to do?

You are so eager to meet
you are so upbeat and you want to greet.

I failed to realize all these.
I promise to relieve you from these worries.

I will be there soon.
I am on my way to meet you all.

This one is for you ...

"For everyone here who's ever been counted out but refused to be knocked out, for everyone who has stumbled but stood right back up, and for everyone who works hard and never gives up -- this one is for you,"

I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.

You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs - Victory in spite of all terrors - Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.Let that be realized.

I never expect to lose. Even when I'm the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech.

The ultimate victory in competition is derived from the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your best and that you have gotten the most out of what you had to give.

Looking at the stars...

When I looked up at the stars
I realized you are not that far.

I have decided to follow you
and stepped on a few thorns that someone threw.

whssss! they all poked in and tore,
not as painful as when you left through the door.

My feet have started feeling cold
with the rush of oozing blood.

My legs have become so numb
and my heart doesn't care when onlookers call me dumb.

I want to get closer to you
Come closer to me. Will you?

No. Stay wherever you are.
There are thorns everywhere.

I don't want to hurt you.
I do care for you.

The path is not that easier,
butI will not let you wait forever.

Baby, we can make it in our lifetime.
We still haven't run out of time.

The restaurant where we had our dinner
busy and active, still stands there.
I am here to stay alone and stare
You have gone leaving me in tears.

Misty eyes, I am looking at the stars
You are not that far.
I will get to you, stay there.

Progress

There was a time when it was an interest I took decisions that were only safest. There was a time when it became a must Tentative ...
