my 1st poem

okie heres a piece of accident.... my 1st attempt at poetry after a 4 year break..


The night of the full moon,
The lonely sea shore.
The waves kissing the walking feet.

The walk on the wet sand,
Hand in hand
Admiring the moonAnd
the stars
The cupid strikes.

A feeling fills up,
The heart beat rises high up,
The instant proposal,The spontaneous acceptance,
The joy , the embrace;
The drizzle, the warmth;
The hunger, the kiss;
The locking lips;
two bodies one soul;
two hearts one beat;

Eternity ; peace

To the boy with the rusted cycle

Another day and I was waiting for the bus at the stop. It was getting late the bus should have been at the stop 10 minutes ago and I had a test. And at that moment, I saw a familiar face, he was a kid must be in his mid teens, I smiled at him and he smiled back but the smile did not reach his eyes.. there was this sadness in his eyes . There was a honk and before I could turn back my attention to him again, the boy was gone. He was far away on his cycle that looked pretty old and there was a pile of newspaper in the rear seat. This chap was surely not my newspaper boy but then who was he? Where had I seen him??

I pondered over him all my way to college and then I forgot. Later I remembered he was my 5 years junior in school and he had a look alike sister very enthusiastic and charming kids they were but their father, the sole breadwinner of the family died a few years ago in a gas explosion.

This is pathetic; the kid is selling the papers when he is supposed to be preparing for his boards. It is unfortunate people like these who are supposed to get the scholarships and other aids from the government and not the people who are “economically stable but belonging to what they refer as ‘lower castes’ ” when will the government realize this? When are the politicians actually going to work for the people than for the power??.. When will the boys like him smile the true smile ???

As a critic..[:D]

The Times had rated it with 4 stars. 31 actors made the guest appearance for a song. There was so much hype created even before it was released on the auspicious day of diwali. The producer and the lead actor of the film apologizing a famous producer of the earlier times did help in advertising. Yes,this to the movie Om Shanti Om.

I had listened to the music before the movie was released n had really liked it. Because the movie was released during my sem exams, I had decided to watch it the first thing during my inter sem break. Friends (most of them SRK fans) who had seen had given it thumbs up. Few of them had also gone to the extent of changing their display name on Orkut to advertising the movie. All these had encouraged me to go and watch the movie.

For all the hype that had been created the movie was surely a let down. Well I don’t say the movie was bad- but it had no original story- u could c that it was a remake of the movies of 70s – Karz and Madhubala with a few changes

There have been a few blunders as well- In one scene
the chandelier fell on Arjun ramphal in the middle of the party and in the next he is lying on a few pieces of glass in the same hall minus the chandelier and the people. Where did the room full of people go??and how did the chandelier fit itself to the ceiling?

If these are overlooked, the movie is quite good. The sets were awesome and the acting was superb – all the actors fit their roles perfectly. Deepika as Shantipriya, arjun ramphal as the rich producer n also the con man mukesh, SRK as Om, the junior artist in the first half of the story and Om, the actor in 2nd half Shreyas as a good friend, Pappu.


I wont say that this is worth advanced booking a month before but it surely makes a good watch on a lazy afternoon.
