Kite!

Amongst all the glittering lights
Stuck on the tree the kite shines!
Is it someone's dream
Stuck and hanging among the leaves?
Shining in the moon light
Swaying in the breeze sometimes left or right!

Little do they know

Don't give up Bee dear!
I am sure you can dig in deeper!
So keep going further more!
There is lots of honey for you and more!

Rest on God's fingers

Flying is a such a beautiful experience
But not as peaceful as resting in God's fingers!

Aqua pearls

Beauty in small things
Aqua pearls on greens,
Engrossed are these in dreams,
In pride nature beams!
(C) Deepthi Nair

Found me!

Inspiring me,
Amazing me,
So happily,
The light filtering through the leaves,
As always has found me!
(C) Deepthi Nair

Innocence

Having found innocence,
I realised wonder is contagious,
Beginning my healing process
Happy I am, immense!!!!
(C) Deepthi Nair

Don't go!

When you had gone,
I did not know how to carry on!
Now with you along,
I know I have already grown strong!

MOTHER NATURE!

Lost among the evergreen tall trees,
My senses awoke hearing the crumpling sound of the dry leaves!
Retelling my memories was the sunny sky, 
"No more tears" said the wild flowers that grew nearby!
I could hear my name being called out aloud,
By the waterfalls, that made Mother Earth so proud!
Making me feel home were the soft grass under my feet,
As the sunset showed me colors that I had never seen!
Healing and soothing my wounds was Mother Nature,
Gradually I could feel my thoughts falling in order!

Filling my ears with magical whispers were the dense woods,
Making me feel loved and accepted as nature's special child!
Glowing equally under the light of the sun and the moon.. breathing the wild air,
I had my doubts whether I had turned into a shooting star?

HEART BELIEVES IN MY INTUITION

"I told you so",
Said my Intuition,
"Can't thank you more",
Said my Heart with conviction!

"Do you regret trusting me?"
Asked my Intuition emotionally.
"I may play tricks creating confusion,
I may be without any vision,
But I know you are always right!",
Said firmly my heart!

"Bitter truth is what I show, still why obey me?",
Asked my Intuition sensing my infallible faith it!

"You feed the soul and not the ego, hence I am happy,"
said my Heart ever so proudly!

Free your soul

Free your soul from the cage,
How?
Just turn the page!
(c) Deepthi Nair

Lost

Am I searching for things that cannot be found?
Somethings I have never seen or heard but why do they still haunt?
There is so much happening inside me
No idea how to pour it out!
No clue as to where I want to be,
maybe it's time to turn the lights out!

(c) Deepthi Nair

Design a life!

I am busy designing my life
Not straight but curved like my smile!

A life not devoid of pain and exhaustion
But a joyous life that does not crave for a vacation!

(c) Deepthi Nair

BRIDGES!!!

A bridge is a connection,
Between our body and imagination!
Taking us from chaos to peace
is a bridge of our prayers to the Almighty!

A bridge made of grit is what leads our goals to its accomplishment,
A bridge fulfils our dreams by merging our will power and commitment!

Emotions are bridges that connects us with each and everything,
The bridge connecting us to our conscious sustains as long as we are breathing!

Burn and smash off the bridge of insecurities,
and gracefully lets accept life's bittersweet  realities!

Lets keep our mind and heart open,
cross the river of tears and jump the bridge over!

Hardships are life's bridges to move from dark to a place well lit,
So sometimes we just would have to turn around and learn to smile at it!

(c) Deepthi Nair

Move on!!!!

Moving to next level of life if you are,
Time to shift into your new avatar!
Pieces of yesterday,
Throw them away,
Before they dent,
the present,
get done with it
Move on & let go of it!
You are here to stay
So take day to day!!!

(C) Deepthi Nair

Positive thinking

What is positive thinking?
Expecting a perfect beginning and ending?

No, its not expecting,
A perfect happening!

It's believing what happened for the moment perfect!
It's accepting that our life need not be perfect!

(c)Deepthi Nair

Memories

Memories... Memories ??
Something that rolls from my eyes,
flowing down my cheeks..
That's memories for me!

(c) Deepthi Nair

SUNLIGHT THROUGH MY WINDOW

Stuck in the dark for quiet a long time,
I have started my walk towards sunshine!
I wish to capture each sunlight,
and not just witness sunset and sunrise!
I sit not fearing solitude and enjoying the golden lit silence,
wearing a crown of wild flowers with enchanting fragrance!
watching very particle dancing in the sun light,
I hold on to my beliefs with all my might!
Putting an end to self doubt which was paralysing the growth of mine,
I fear no darkness, as now I carry my sunshine!

Extraordinary

You love Roses, you said,
Ever tried loving leaves instead?
For loving the beautiful is ordinary,
Loving the ordinary is extraordinary!
( C ) Deepthi Nair

Just be 'YOU' !

Let go off the past,
Your thoughts need rest,
Stop observing others,
Then who can steal your happiness??!!!

Let go off the wish to be well known,
Its only the name that gets known,
Why not be a simple human and friend,
People would love to know you till the end !

Let's work and build up a demeanor,
To convert all our anguish into adventure,
So why be like the rest, Darling?
When being 'YOU' is all the more thrilling!!!!

(c) Deepthi Nair

I am me!

I am me,
It's as simple and easy,
I am not one who matures with age
God matured me through damage
The more u try to understand me
The more u will go crazy!!!😊
Yes no doubt I am a weirdo
But do you want to let me go????😀

Sometimes a leaf
sometimes a flower
Oh god I can't believe
I am part of nature!
What a lovely way
To start the day!!

(C) Deepthi Nair

Raindrops

I can see the rain drops on the tree tops
dripping down to bring out the green in the leaves,
I can see the rain drops on the roof tops
dripping down to clean the dusty window sills,
I can see the rain drops fall on my stretched out palms and slip away,
dripping down to clear each of my pain of yesterday!
I can see the rain drops fall like soft kisses from the heavens so blue,
Oh dear rain drops! Please let me feel you on my face too!!!
(c) Deepthi Nair

WHY

Eyes staring at me, asking me "WHY?"
Stepping out of my shell, now I know "WHY?"
Today those that say "Are u really going to do this?"
Tomorrow I bet they will say " How did you do this?" 

(c) Deepthi Nair

Seed!

Life tried to bury me...
Pushing me down and deep..
And that's when I realised..
Oh! I am a seed!!!

Swarga vadhil Ekadashi!

Vishnu Purana says fasting on Vaikuntha Ekadashi,
is equivalent to fasting on the all the
Ekadashis!
Scriptures say that the gates of his divine abode,
the Vaikuntam, was opened by the merciful Lord,
for two demons who said stories and hence asked for a boon,
that whoever listens to them and sees the the Lord coming out of the door,
will reach Vaikunth,  through the Swarga Vaadhil, the divine door!

Padma Purana tells us the tale of the demon Muran,
who was slayed by the Lord Vishnus's energy, a female ansham!
Pleased by this act that happened on the 11th day of lunar month of Dhanu Rashi,
Lord Vishnu named his female energy as ‘Ekadashi’!
And so she was gifted with a blessing,
that whoever worship her on this day of her victory,
would reach the Lords divine abode,
through the divine golden door!

So oh vishnu bhaktas observe the fast of this month,
and get moksha from the cycle of life and death!

♡AMBIVALENCE♡

Oblivious on how things will reel out for me,
I acquiesce the unseen..the concealed!
Excruciating at times it makes me feel,
yet have learnt to acknowledge it artistically!

Why should I speculate the worst,
when I have a choice to reckon the best,
In no hurry to reach anywhere,
I am living each day like a whiff of fresh air!

No more getting entangled in the web of stress,
that oh so religiously is spun by each of us,
no more thinking and brooding of the future,
that none of us can ever augur!

Let us face this ambivalence,
since life is laden with them,
any thing can happen at any time
might as well gear up to face them!
(c) Deepthi Nair

Magic

Expect the unexpected
Or don't expect at all!
Believe the unbelievable
Or have no belief at all!
Best happens unexpectedly
Magic happens suddenly!!!!
(c) Deepthi Nair

Dancing trees

Dancing to the tune of the wind are the trees,
Singing in chorus are the ever rustling leaves;
I let the cool breeze overtake the soul of mine,
As the warm sunlight fills the winter sky
The warm rays penetrating my skin
Appreciating the magical mix of nature I let myself sink!
(c)Deepthi Nair

Face your demons.. Head on!

Have no qualms and abandon the apathy,
pick up a brawl with the demons in thee!
Build up trust and faith in yourself,
and destroy the root cause of distress in thyself!

Yes, its easier said than done,
but trust me my friend,
This is only how you can salvage,
your diminishing semblance and privilege!

Sustaining the stretching and pulling of life,
this is an incredibly important time in my life,
Being kicked out from my comfort zone,
I am ready to reach out for more.

Life's hard knocks have shattered me in many ways,
leaving hardly any uneffected inch of what I can or cannot display,
but I know the more deeply things pulverise,
the stronger and wiser is the new me that arise!

Battling with all the changes in my life,
I am learning how to survive,
turning sturdy and stronger day after day,
realising of how much pain can I handle anyway!

Cease shrinking away from difficulties,
enough of ambling with apologies,
no more brushing off them,
it's time, you head on face them!!!

Yours fears would try their best,
to convince you and make you feel less,
but believe and be presumptous,
who can stop you from being victorious?

Such is the magic of believing,
that eagerly I await for the year ahead,
No matter how it's gonna treat me,
I am ready with my sword and my shield.
