Poem - #18 | Wrapped in Love

Wrapped in love

I don't care if I'm pretty
He never told me
I never care what enthralled me
I always over-rated my life
Why lie on his bed tonight?
I say!
I swell my pride to undertake
Fornicate not to make him
stay

Stoic those chances of

bethroning a man

With lovers kind of embrace

Why I never discovered

turbulences

Quite unexpected each

minute

Fades into the shadows of

vain

Losing grip on those days

gone by

Like an empty conch fritters

Of the shore

I stand wrapped in words

That wash the shores of my body

Then like those unveiling

Linen flows like a borrowed

wings of Icarus

White wanton on the shore

With sand that sparkle on

That ebony rock battered by

The winds of time

With foothills down to sullen

Heat of pregnant shores that

never ebbed

Forever emmersed in those

Hearts rejoice of

Tangled hair that meshes out

To the mind, that stoops not

to imposters

Wild wild child your soul has

parched out

Humiliating remarks chide

not anymore

Since with him she engaged

Her soul entwining for

eternity,

She bids not of hope begone

To simple chance of

adversary!

For on my words I surrender

The beauty of my being

So may he never tell me that

I'm pretty for in my mind
I slay

Of beckoning skies that glow

each day

No matter the mental tryst

For him the Noblest of them all kings,

She shall remain the sparkling dusky queen!

Thought - #1 |Who is God?

Who is God? Who in this diverse world of ours hasn't heard about Him, a greater power above us all, a Being known to many by an infinite names. A Creator in some religions, a Destroyer in others, an entity in some and a force, energy in others. The very notion of God comes the the everlasting but yet the most preliminary and fundamental question that our human mind has been able to conceive. Who made us? And thus the paradoxical answer follows; someone, God. Why paradoxical? Because if we exist then it follows that their must be a creator else nothing makes sense. Our very existence proves the existence of the One. Although this mind boggling topic, also one of the most controversial ones to be accurate, has been there since we achieved self-awareness the truth is that it may never be answered. Yet is that all? Do we only see God as our creator or is there something more to it, a latent truth buried deep within our minds. It is a fact that it is our very human ...

BLURB: As a child living in his family's apple orchard, Ahmad Torkash-Vand treasures his great-great-great-great grandfather's every mesmerizing word. On the day of his father's death, Ahmad listens closely as the seemingly immortal elder tells him the tale of a centuries-old family curse . . . and the boy's own fated role in the story.

R.J. Palacio Reads | Wonder

Thoughts On The Book R.J. Palacio in her book 'Wonder' has beautifully encaptured the problems that a specially abled or simply put a disabled person, has to undergo and suffer. She also talks about how a person has to tolerate bullying in school and his feelings: she also discusses about the life of pets and the way inhumane humans mistreat them. Pets as she says is more than just an animal. All this thought provoking instances are talked about in one book. This book has really touched my heart because not only has the author discussed about such problems in our society but he has essentially engraved into our soul a different perspective of life. She tells us about the many ways in which a person can overcome such a situation and how a disability doesn't necessarily mean that everything is over. Storyline The whole story revolves around the life of a little boy named August Pullman who was inflicted with Mandibulofacial dystosis from birth. Also commonly...
