Looking into the Microscope....

-


















Looking unfazed

They gaze my look



They won’t change

But they change my view

Though they are in my contact

They remain intact



The shape …the relief

The color…the pleochroism

The cleavage …the extinction

The inclusions…their reflections

The twinning … the zoning

The deformation… the alteration



Mineral is always perfect…

Even in terms of imperfections


It always gives me clue

Why, when and how

It won’t change…

The combination may change



It’s my turn to see them again and again

Make complex process simple


It’s my turn to understand nature…

In it's own terms!



It’s my turn to follow the flow path

To get the mineral bonanza!

Wonderful response to the prompt. I love reading contributions from poets with knowledge completely foreign to me. You both educate and entertain with this clever piece.

Beautiful. I often look at crystals when meditating, their steadfast qualities help center me. Lovely

Friends are like memories

Friends are like memories Some good… some bad Some sweet…   some mad True you can choose them But it’s they who decide…. to stay or leave Friendships are like cyclic process You meet …you mingle You treat…you part No one is permanent No one is life long They keep coming and going Some come for a season Some come with a reason Remember…they are like memories In fact …with time, friends become memories You evolve… Your thought evolve… Your memories evolve Bad may become good Good may be become bad…. Seasons do change…reasons may differ Remember… Friends are friends forever Friends remain in memories forever For Poets United Poetry Pantry #293

Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din?????

-
Mukesh is my favorite singer. And when I am young….specially during teenage days I use to madly listen to his songs. There is a kind of magic in his voice with inexplicable sadness…. That use to take me altogether to a different world. There are n numbers of Mukesh songs….which I know by heart and can sing along! But this one is like the ultimate…..Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din! Whenever I listen… there will be definitely tears in my eyes…. by the time the song is complete! The voice, the lyrics and the music….no match at all! And today I don’t know why? after long... long... time I just felt like listening to it! All those …who are sensitive at heart can listen and enjoy! Kyonki…. ”Baadhe saukyamane bhaavana raanevoy! AA yeruke nischalaanandamoy…Brahamaanandamoy”! Learn Telugu if you want to follow it!
