THE FORBIDDEN TREASURE.....

-



















You make the heart float

You make the thoughts sink

You bring back the moments

You bring back the memories

You make the time stand still

In fact you are time immortal



I can hold you close to my heart

I can keep you in secret closet

I can read you to my heart's content

I can variably interpret the content



You can be passed on to next generation

You can be testimony to past generation

You make the history...you keep the history


With your n-number of words....

You build the world...

The world that is without boundaries

You travel to reach the hearts

You reach to please the hearts



I piety the present generation

Who just know texting and mail

I just want to tell them...

At least write once in your life time


Let us all preserve the art of letter writing

Let us all treasure the flair of hand writing

So true... it seems as if handwritten letters are a thing of the past, but they are so much more personal (I think).

I agree with you that letters are precious in a way emails will never be and yet we cannot change the course of events. They are indeed a thing of the past.

So very true, PT. It really is nice to have those handwritten notes - or even the typewritten notes sent with stamps - that traveled over the miles to reach us. Texts and emails can / will disappear in a POOF. The handwritten word can be a treasure for a long time to come.

There is a different feeling when writing pen or pencil on paper. It should always be available to experience.

there is something special in writing things down, we live in a world of instants, perhaps we need to treasure time and words.

Letters really do make time stand still in many ways. I had not thought of that. Words become treasure when they are written down.

A treasure trove indeed! Nothing like a handwritten letter from someone to make us think we are really special!

Ah letters... My parents have told me a thousand times about the letters they used to write to each other when they were young. I wish I could have this experience too, instead of having Facebook posts or Whatsapp messages... It's just so much more romantic! So I agree with you, PT! And I love the way you wrote your poem, I unconsciously read it as if it was a song.

The art of letter writing has told little hidden pieces of history we would never had told.

May it live again.

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!
