Allepey – A Night on a Houseboat

Allepey, also known as venice as the east, is a town now past its peak.. Its glory still holds in the beautiful old mansions and houses that rub shoulders with the new glass facades of modern architecture.. The whole town was once accessible only by waterways, much like venice.. Now the canals and the boats [...]

Unpredictable…

Life is one hell of a ride.. The only problem is that no matter how hard we try there is only one exit to it.. Death (full and final) But the ride can be pretty amazing.. Sometimes it isnt i agree, it is boring ,ritualistic and totally pointless.. But sometimes it gives you an inkling [...]

Ode to Childhood

Wonderful times of old i remember..
School days of careless freedom..
To memories today i surender..
Thoughts of the past i pick at random..
First crush and the jealousy it brought..
Fist fights on the sandy playground..
The trifles of things we once sought..
A chocolate, a picnic , a ride on the merry-go-round..
Untold promises of undying friendship..
Some kept , some in [...]

And take me into fantasies new..
What dreams have i missed in waking hours..
Whose face didnt i see today..
I guess this i never will know..
For what is gone again will never show..
Over long nights i wonder why..
Why does [...]

A Quarter Century! What a ride…

I know its a little late.. But i needed time for the dust to settle down and the mist to clear to write clearly about being 25 years old.. Firstly i think the term in itself is such a letdown , the moment you say u r 25 years OLD it sound so gloomy and antique.. [...]

Those were the days…

We have all used the abovesaid words a lot of times in our lives. remember how i college we used to think so about school, in PG about graduation and now in our jobs about PG. Yes it isnt the classes we miss, but the times we had. The present always falls short of our [...]
