I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud

Posted in Poems by K.

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

He does it conciously knowing that my world is going to spin right out of its orbit and merge into his. No he doesn’t love me. He has made that amply clear. But this passionate optimism that I hold close to my heart. The fierce distrust and the nausea with which I regard him as the only man for me.

Neutral Tones

Posted in Poems by K.

We stood by a pond that winter day,
And the sun was white, as though chidden of God,
And a few leaves lay on the starving sod,
—-They had fallen from an ash, and were gray.

1) I am more sarcastic than I like.
2) I hate keeping in touch.
3) I am cocky at times.
4) I hate excuses.
5) I spend more than 75 percent of my salary on my house.
6) I stopped having any sort of expectations from anyone some time back, before that I used to believe that if you be good to people, they’d be good to you.

Happy Dussehra

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Non-fiction by Neha

The tang of the sweet and sour gol gappas

Sweet honey of warm jalebis

The noise of the crackers

Smell of cheap gunpowder

Blinking lights on the templetop merging into the bright orange sunset

 

Yes… Dussehra in Delhi is beautiful

Best Wishes!
