It's quite enchanting being a fool.....

-



To be or not to be is a question
But let me tell you...
Being a fool always makes you happy

Not bothering about the mundane world
Not quarrelling about the routine jobs

Looking all the world around as one
Feeling all the nature belongs to none

It's quite fetching if you are a fool

No expectations from you...
You expect nothing from the world

No following for you
You follow no rule of the globe

Living within the realm of truth and love
Living with the feel of trust and care

Living with the dreams of your own
Living in the world of your own

It's quite enchanting being a fool

Yes, you hit all the high spots! It feels like an unobtainable fantasy from the perspective of the culture I live in--at least while one needs to earn a living. But I have known people in retreats to approximate the joy and release you speak of and I was lucky enough to have some years of it while very young. Perhaps one can develop this as a state of mind?

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!
