Friends…
Strength and comfort shall we seek...
Hugs and kisses exchanged in bonhomie…
Happiness and love we would crave…
Poems written and frescoes painted in pursuit…
Fear and anger we bump into in this ride…
Leaving us abandoned… in thoughts sometimes…
Leaving memories strewn… in a canvas called mind...
Some which got etched without asking us…
And we scrubbed hard hoping they fade...
Though the cobbler had warned… it only shines brighter…
And we move on…with dollops of myriad thoughts…
And we move on… looking ahead…
Hoping to touch that island of hope…and fresh starts…
Which seems so far away and yet…
We wished were close by!
Probably it’s the autumn which doesn’t help me write anything these days…I would like to share a quote meanwhile I saw in a email signature recently…
"If a drop of water falls in lake there is no identity, But if it falls on a leaf of lotus it shines like a pearl. So choose the best place where you would shine...."
I wish everyone of you the same!!
P.S. Today I finished 4 years in blogworld..Thanks a lot for the wonderful people out here who have given me company!!

Congrats Mat on completing 4 years in blog world.
Ya Man! Few ppl like you and silverine are the most active since 2006 - an year when I seriously came back to blogging. Congrats. There are lot many things which forces me to take a sabbatical on the blog. Recently I started a Malayalam hoping I would write more often in that language. But some how I cannot make it up as fast as you guys can.
Wishing you very best buddy. Write more, cook more !! :-)
