Hunger - A Haiku & More



Dying are your children 
Fruits, grains, oh mother nature 
My dear capitalism!

As we believe, we live in the most advanced era of humankind.

“21st Century. Wow! Advancements, riches, exploration, knowledge, power what not we do have now.” 

“Awareness and empathy, do you have that?” 

“Yes, we have most effective Media now.” 

“Ah, then you must be knowing your world in and out.” 

“Oh, yes. We have google too.”

“Ah ha! You are so very advanced. I just wanted to blabber something.”

“Go ahead. I am sitting here free for my Friday Drinks. You know I need to relax.”

“Yeah Sure. You need to relax over your drinks.”

“21,000 people die of hunger or hunger related causes every day in our world. This is one person every four second. Children die most often. We had given you plenty of Food for everyone. How did these people get trapped in poverty and that too to an extent where they do not have money to buy their food? Ah, food is to be bought, the most advanced Versions of Human kinds.”

“No no. You carry on with your drink. I am just blabbering. I will do this a little more.

- Some 795 Million people in the world do not have enough food to lead a healthy and active life.

- 12.9% of the population of developing countries is malnourished. 

- Poor nutrition is causing almost 45% of death in children which is 3.1 Million each year.

- One in four of the world’s children are stunted. (This includes developed countries as well) 

Something specific to India 

-194.6 Million undernourished people. 

- one quarter of all unnourished people on the planet live in India. 

- It is home of one third of worlds stunted children that is 38.7% of the children under 5 Years of age.” 

“Aww!” 

"You might be having many things with you now but you are the loneliest of the humankind."

The New Dawn (Concludes - Part 6)




“You were never out of my life Amaay but you need to understand at least now that you have to live many lives in one life and for this you need to take decisions within time frame” She said in a very calm tone and continued “We are all like the ethereal azure sky. It has no existence but it exists. Sometimes it is shadowed by the clouds and sometimes it is shiny blue. Few years back we had no existence and few years hence, we will have no existence, but we exist. Memories do exist and with memories we, our emotions and our relationships exist. The memories are sometimes shadowed by the clouds and sometimes they are clear and we continue to exist in stories which are sometimes told and sometimes remembered in perfect solitude”. I kept on listening to her completely mesmerised.

The gravest problem with curiosity does not lie in the information that one gathers but it actually lies in processing that information with an opinionated perception. All these years I had my opinion about Nisha as an immature and impulsive woman. All my perception shattered within flash of a second.

“Your husband and your baby didn’t come with you?” I asked just to change the topic as I had started feeling somewhat guilty.

“Hmm” she sensed my feeling and allowed me the space I needed badly at that moment.

“How are they?”

“They can’t be any better!”

The entire gang knew about our relationship and so they had left us alone.

“I have heard that you had an accident sometime back?”

“Yes. It was a car accident.”

“Hope you didn’t get hurt much.”

“How is your job doing?” She changed the topic.

“That is going great and I got three promotions in two years.”

“Nisha, why don’t you come over to my place with your husband and baby on some weekend? We will have a great time together.”

I learnt another lesson which is going to be with me for my entire lifetime and that is, not to form any opinion about anybody or anything.

I was dragging my body inside the aircraft. I don’t remember how and when I completed the formalities of boarding. I was awake but I was not. I was in some trance which I was not able to understand. The aircraft was taxiing now but I was still in the bar, standing numb and my ears resonating constantly -

“That accident!” after a deep pause she continued “My husband and my baby” and with a sight she concluded “I lit their pyre…….” 


I had my earphone plugged in and I could listen to the song, as if it were coming from some far away….


People, all around
You stand alone….. !
Feeling, life around
You stand alone…. ! 

Un hun … hmm .. hun un
Sha ka la ka

Come along live us together
Till we breathe, till we are live
Come on
Egos! on the shelf
“I” ness shredded around
Come on! Live! Till we are live

Humans! we are
Let us realize ………. !

Un hun … hmm .. hun un

Mysteries of Life #2





With open eyes
we see a world
which becomes real
when we are awake

with closed eyes
we dream a world
which becomes real
when we are asleep

Which one is Real You?

My Confused Soul





Oh! The Soul!!!
It is lying so beneath
There is body above
And skin, and muscle
Hold! Veins are also there
Alas! These bones
And a head up above
And the Soul
Suppressed beneath all these
Pondering and taking stress
Oh! The Confused Soul!!!

Behold, Behold!! The Earthy Winds
The Sultry atmosphere
The expression of divide
Alas!! the blood
Here and there, war and fight
Cries of orphaned child
The honchos of the city life
And the lost village style
And the Soul
Searching peace in all
Oh! My Confused Soul!!!

Ah!! The human brain
Mentoring the thoughts of strain
The want – to – be heart
And the capitalist greed
Hold! The skies are ventured
Alas! These ozone holes
The brazen church on sea shore
And the Soul
Traversing the amorous mass
Awaiting its fathers call
Oh! My Confused Soul!!!

My Beautiful Lady




A beautiful lady, wrapped in red
Pretty face with some wrinkles trace
Moving gracefully when we faced

“Hi !”  Took time when we met
Glimpses came on our face
Foots Freeze, memories seize
Age sneaked past I peeped

Years gone, people forlorn
New relations, same emotions
Shaming me, shamming you
What I lost, what you boost

Same questions, we knew answers
Had we known the same before
Past was present, present future
“Damn!”  I in me, I in you.

Yesterday …....She was here

Created by: Payal Agrawal (http://colorsofthefall.blogspot.com)


It was yesterday ……


When she was with me
Looking at my eyes
And her eyes saying
"I love you"

It was yesterday ……


When I was cuddling
In her arms, in winter
And she was filling me with
Warmth of her love


It was yesterday......


When she woke me up
Saying "Happy Birth Day"
And I woke up in a room
Which happen to be brazen
To see it filled with flowers


It was yesterday ……


And today
I am standing near a frame
Holding her in its cuddle
The calendar next said
Only "Twenty" years back


It is only yesterday ……
