209.Everyday is a surprise - June vibes*

 *Everyday is a surprise - June vibes*

It's story time on how I learnt to drop my baggage of hurt 

Which made ample space in my memory to sort

I have bittter sweet instances with my neighbours from parents home 

As I stay abroad,for one help I had made a phone 

I didn't like how the aunty took it as a barter arrangement absurd

To provide a job to her relative in return for the water she gave my dad 

My next brief visit too I thanked her and I thought it was over

She expected me to remember forever the favour

This time on my visit I didn't feel like speaking to anyone 

I did my clean up work and had my own tension 

It's afterall my home without my parent

So I was in my own zone apparent 

As I didn't come to meet her personally she felt bad 

And told my brother that I am ungrateful and selfish as she's sad 

Initially I was upset as although I speak limited but I am social

Had I met her outside I would definitely be cordial 

However knocking someone's home just to say I am here 

Also I didn't realise if anyone would even care

My feelings were negative and thought there was no need to stay in touch 

But when my brother said that a little smile is a weapon such 

A simple 'Hi hello' makes heart transformation very much 

Why to be bitter to anyone, she is getting old 

I achieve nothing by being cold 

So as he was explaining me I realised and said if she is around 

Over video call I spoke to aunty and her lost smile I found 

I felt so happy to learn that a 30 second of greet 

Could change mood and feelings to positive treat 

Life is too small to hold grudges to core

 

Later we can only regret if they are no more 

Letting go made me feel free and light 

To my surprise , soul now feels pure and bright !!!

207.Modification to 43. Dawn

 Dawn

The phase of darkness is making me so low 

Everything goes against me , to almighty I bow 

I need to be confident and believe in self now

Each dark night has a dawn above 

Everything happens for a reason I know 

In hands of god we are puppet show 

Let me just go with the flow 

Everything will be fine I believe so !!!

206. The mask you wear / Anthology - Our thoughts

 

As I ponder over my trait 

I find myself either dull or bright 

The best swings one can witness is my mood 

At times I am physically present but mentally in different world 

As growing up I was a silent child 

After few years I found myself talkative

However easily hurt and overly sensitive 

I am considered as a gentle giant 

Who appears huge but has soft trait

I wear mask of confident tone 

Within me I am afraid and alone 

At times I tend validation than believing in my ability 

People have misused my vulnerability 

The most energy draining task is falling in loop belt 

Building habit is easy but maintaining it is difficult 

The moment bad habit in me triggers to core 

I need to learn the consequence and divert my mind more 

The most underrated quality is self talk 

And may be some meditation or going for a walk 

I appear very jovial and carefree ,Pious 

I wonder if it's actually me or I am just pretentious 

At times I am tagged to be selfish and mean 

Because I am seldom in touch with anyone keen 

But it's just because I have my own business to mind 

Also I am in journey to understand myself and find 

I need to know why do I cry without reason 

Why do I have PhD in taking tension ?

Why letting go isn't easy ?

Mind diversion is only through being busy 

I realise I have so much scope of improvement with each introspection 

Although I try my best but I am a model of imperfection

My parents are no more and I miss them very much 

Life isn't fair and bound to face unfortunate situation such 

But what matters is how I lead my life 

To make them proud and walk another mile

When life gives lemon , I should learn to make lemonade 

Only then I will be relevant and never fade

The mask I wear of a beautiful smile on face 

Is something I need to tattoo permanently with each phase 

I am Fortunate and grateful to have blessings I met 

All I need to work on is to have a positive mindset 

Poetry writing style of mine is not the conventional one that's taught 

But Writing in flow helps me pull off my mask and have clarity of thought!

Woow❤️

A deeply introspective and moving piece of creativity  bravely peeled back layers to reveal the complex interplay between your outward demeanor and inner struggles. Good word flows well, and use of power of imagination effectively conveys your emotional landscape.

A remarkably honest and relatable poem captured the experience of wearing different “masks” and navigating the often-conflicting aspects of one’s personality. Your vulnerability in exploring themes of self-doubt, sensitivity, and the search for inner peace is truly commendable and makes this piece very powerful❤️

Keep exploring these profound insights through your writing❤️

205.Continuation of post 119. Office samosa party for poesy poetry on topic Good things come to those who wait

 Office stories-

"Good things come to those who wait "

We come across ad of before and after

Below poem I had written before joining my team for a ice breaker 

Initial lines reflects my apprehension 

Concluding with how the reality looks with actual attention 

*Jan 2025 *

 Shortly I will be moving to a team new

Today there was a samosa party as a ice breaker to know 

Let me just put a background of my situation very 

Me earlier working under audit , at present in tax and future with advisory 

My future manager had spotted me in tears way back 

When I was having a tough time with audit team pack 

Today when we met he asked in front of all 

That he had seen me crying standing tall 

Immediately everyone focussed on me more

And it was embarrassing to the core

My present manager answered this dent

That it was past ,let's focus on present 

Then the upcoming manager spoke normally with all of us

And everyone started back chatting without a fuss 

Yet back of my mind I wanted to give him befitting reply 

But the next few months to be trained at work, I would on him rely

If I give any negative vibe any 

I can have tough time so many

I had female managers before 

And they were kind and listened more 

Now if I take up any issues more 

I would be fired from job for sure 

So being positive and learning work net

Doing my best and getting permanent

That's my focus

Yes I should not cry in office to avoid any buzz.

*June 2025* 

Good things definitely comes to those who wait 

My thought process on manager earlier seemed a click bait 

He is straight forward yes, agree that at times a bit over and static 

Over a time frame I am learning to be more diplomatic 

Learning work , handling people, having a positive mindset 

Preparing mind to face things with confidence even if at times I feel upset 

The things that I have today is a blessing 

And I don't want to ponder over past on trivial thing

Had I lost my mind and said something nasty that day 

I would have to face consequences and would have nothing to say 

But a moment of patience helped me retain my bread butter 

I learnt to write down a poem to express emotions than chatter putter

204. Tea

 *Tea*

My mom's way of tea was different than mine 

I can never match the taste her skills had , the one I make is just fine 

She boils water and adds tea powder then 

In separate vessel milk and sugar to dissolve when 

The black tea to be mixed with sweetened milk was her way 

I was too lazy to use two container so used to mix everything in milk each day 

Today I made her way and it tasted so delicious 

Her way of doing things was very mindful and precious 

My parents loved tea and I enjoy making for them 

May they be happy wherever they are my invaluable gem!!!

*Music in 4 lines for International Music day - Poesy poetry*

I replace fast music with calm beat as its  vital to be watchful of the music I listen 

It help me preserving energy kit,as my mood changes with music be it sad or fun 

Music within me and outside helps me feel at ease 

Gives direction for lifes ride to be patient enough to respond in lighter breeze

206. Solitude

 Solitude 

It's 2 years that you have left us Amma , are you in solitude ?

Your nature is such that you mingle with all and include 

I am doing ok Amma , without you I feel lonely 

You are my soul friend only and only 

Although I speak to you but my only question is why 

Please tell me that I am in dream and you leaving me is a lie 

This day ( June 4 ) exactly 2 years ago you left us on full moon

When I see moon I visualise your essence as your boon

When will you come back Gondi or have you already been one with God 

Living each day in solitude seems hit by a sharp sword 

Miss you Amma , be content wherever you are 

You are present in my soul ,only body has gone too far!!!
