MAGIC OF SUCCESS

PEACE IN MIND, BLISS AT HEART,

GOD IS BLESSFUL, BLESSED THIS PART.

NONE TO HEAR, NONE TO SEE,

WHERE IS SUCCESS? WHERE I BE.

TIME SHUNNED ALL WORDS

THAT BAFFLED AND BATTLED LIKE SWORDS.

SUCH IS THE MAGIC OF SUCCESS....

FOR SPEND IT NOT ON SHADOWS

WHO SPEND IT ALL ON WINDOWS.

BUT TOIL AND MOIL THAT ALL DAY LONG,

DO HEAR AT DAY CALL THE TRIUMPH SONG

AND BLESSED THEY FEEL WITH FRIEND AND FOE,

SOUL IS FREE, JOYS NO LIMITS KNOW,

SUCH MAGIC OF SUCCESS DOES TIME BESTOW.

A Letter to Mom by a Baby Girl

By -
Dear Mommy, I'm in heaven now, sitting on Gods’ lap. He loves me and cries with me, for my heart is broken. I so much wanted to be your little girl. I don't quite understand what has happened. I was so excited when I began to realize my existence. I was in a dark, yet comfortable place. I saw that I had fingers and toes and I was pretty far along in my developing, yet not near ready to leave my surroundings. I spent most of my time thinking or sleeping. Even from the earliest days, I felt a special bonding between us. Sometimes I heard you crying and I cried with you. Sometimes you would yell or scream, then cry, I heard daddy yelling back. I was sad, and hoped you would be better soon. I wondered why you cried so much. One day you cried almost the entire day. I hurt for you. I couldn't imagine why you were so unhappy. That same day, the most horrible thing happened. A very mean monster came into my warm comfortable place. I was so scared, and I began screaming but there wa

THE D... my first night @hospital

By -
The ‘D’ October in Muzaffarpur was like a disease in approbation that made u dream of being under one of Alice in Wonderland skies and stuffed your nose with aroma of fresh air with a tinge of jasmine, but today it clogged his lungs and made him shudder from every nerve and sweat from every pore of his body. It was midnight and the fragrance outside didn’t seem to relieve him of the heat or humiliation within. Tonight desperation added a new element to his restless discontent. It rode his nerves like a hissing snake looking for somewhere to sink its fangs into. ‘Tapp’ fell another sweat drop on the glass of his specs. Hurriedly he took off the specs from over his big worried nose and gave another mighty push on the chest piece of the stethoscope placed on 12 year old Armaan’s chest. Shook his head in cringe. Another push… ‘Huh!!’...a sigh in guilt and he returned to his chair next to mine. Dr. R. Prasad or RP as we used to call him, from the Dept. of Emergency Medicine, was a man o

THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

By -
I have always loved her. Always. Day or night, through all seasons, from dawn to dusk and to the next dawn again, whether I am awake or sleepy, studying or partying, her love has stayed with me like some omnipresent fragrance, hypnotizing me in every moment of my day and every dream of my night. She looks so simply pretty, so unbelievably gorgeous. I’ve seen her in many disguises, she is like some royal queen in that marrige-like decked up look, and like some angel in that pretty flowy nightdress.. But she’s looked mesmerizingly pretty when she’s without make-up, careless, when she lets the lucky air play with her long hair, open and her locks growing from side of her temples. She lets a lock or two fall on her face, letting them drink from the flow of soft beauty; these locks sometimes try to kiss her lips and at others try to curtain her eyes, bathing in the cool innocence, naughtiness flowing from her eyes. Oh! And her simplicity I’ve seen her whole nights, that baby look on her fac
