A big hello to everyone! 
Its been a long break from rediff iland and I hope the citizens of rediff iland would pardon me for the long absence considering my new marriage status ! 
When I was digging into a pile of old files and papers , I found some interesting piece of papers ! It was written on Feb , 1990 . 17 years back ! 
17 years back there was a budding poet in his school years, who dreamt of being wordsworth and keats . But unfortunately or rather a mysteriously he stopped writing poem since 1991.
The poems I found in the papers of Feb , 1990 had the last 4 poems he had written.
I thought I would share it with you all the poems. In this blog I will post one of the 4 poem. Read it , Comment on it. I will let you know more about the poet at the end of the 4 poem series.
Love's Adventure
I am surfing along with waves
Of the fierce ocean of love,
Cuffing me to the depth of water always,
But only for my will of love;
I am trekking on the hard still rocks,
Of the piercing mountain of love,
Suffocating me to the dense air that draws,
As i go above but only for my love;
I am engaged in wild sport of earth,
The bloody duel of love,
No fun, no hesitation, no mirth,
For me, it's the victorious love;
I have courage to face my lady love,
To give deep meaning through eyes,
Pass my love ' the blooming willow,
Through my mind, the words two minds buys;
All I have: the pure love, the dainty glow
The lord of Venus but have denied '
The strength to share my love, my serene love
In words tat the ears would have smiled…
P.S >>> Ignore the grammatical mistakes keeping in mind it was written by a non English speaking school going kid of a small town.

This is something which i wanted to write last two weeks but got delayed coz i am ?part of? one of the well known brand : lazybonez! 
So few weeks back i was in my heights of laziness during one sunday n i was flipping channels and ended up in a debate programme in one of a tamil channel and the participants where school children. So when i parked my attention on the debate which was going on in an intresting pace , one of a kid who must be in 3rd std caught my eyes and ears. He was very short but had a sparkling eye and was very brisk and had no stage fear before the huge audience. He was talking about superstition and this is what he said in his concluding words. ” Sir, they say if a cat crosses us it brings bad luck and if we see donkey it brings wealth and good luck .. So am wondering if that is the?case , why is it that the dhobis who see donkeys?everyday hav to struggle?all their life???!!! “ The hall roared with applauses . What a killer punch for the superstitious beliefs !!!!! The words and the tone in which he spoke juz jolted me with surprise. What a simple point but a effective one to nail the coffin of superstitious beliefs? and that too from a kid who later i came to kno hails from a family with no education background and he is the first one to walk into school campus!!! Lage rago chhote bhais !!!!

After a few weeks of patafying parents , finally Divya and me got engaged and exchanged rings !!!! It feels simply wonderful !, people say marriage is made in heaven but for us its made in Iland !!! ?Everyone in our family are surprised by the sudden turn in events and the surprise marriage news !!! Most of them even duno the complete story of how and where we both met 
?and still scratching heads and am sure there must many rounds of gossips and their own version of how we both met !!!! Thank God! all my relatives dont?live in bangalore or i would be spending all my sweet hours explaining each and everyone’s versions , counter versioons , doubts , questions etc etc .. So my poor elder bhaiya is handling this task of answering relatives in my native
Anyways , it feels so nice to fall in love and it feels doubly utterly butterly truly wonderful?to get engaged with the one we love !!! Well , more about the memorable events that happened during the engagement week , i think it would be better Divya write a blog on it coz i feel shez best in putting the course of events more lively and entertaining to read!!!
So the marriage day is fixed on Jan 24 ! and it happens to be my birthday too !!!!! It would be the most memorable birthday in my life !!!!!
Thanks to all our friends of iland for your wishes !!!

“ I am an artist at living - my work of art is my life “
On the lighter note , the past week was very memorable with all the sweet hilarious cat's (Ele’s) day out that happened on iland thanks to Jasir , rajesh and co and ended up with irresitable forget ' the ' dieting indulgence on diwali sweets ! Hope you all had a safe and sweetened diwali ! Love is in the air … and its a sweet fragrance and i love it to the core !!! Been busy working out the patafying techniques to convince Divy’s parents and with all your wishes would be able to succeed in that in quick time !!! Its really heart warming to see so many wishes and it makes me feel its not an island of isolation but an island continent of diverse people with a good heart and nature and humour !!

Am back ! Blogging after exactly 23 days i think .. ( sorry my maths IQ is miserably poor , so i think sept 17 - oct 11 is 23 well well .. something arnd tat figure for sure ) So dont have any wrong ideas that i was extremely buzy or extremely lazy , neither of it is true .. Blogging is done with free spirit and for some reason my mind was not free enuf for blogging .. The best part of blogging is there is no publisher who paid advance for our forth comming writings and sitting behind our collar thinking of cash cow .. ok , i doubt any publisher who knows his mathematics right would invest on me but still have a faint hope that one day an idiot would be ready to publish atleast ONE book authored by me if i could stir a potential controversy no am not talking abt any mole politics here or voice for any controversy .. nooooo am not talking about any Roys or make a true lies in the name of autobiography noooo again am not talking about any neighbouring general here 
So till then all of us be content with blogging !
But meanwhile in the absence of my free spirit to write , i didnt miss reading other’s blogs and had a good laugh at some and spend pondering over few amazing lines and thoughts … heeheee ya i didnt miss out Ash’s Rani transformation or WS ’s Cow escapades and life funda , Deepas winning story , Nis boy’s yak n yeti strips , Raghu’s Sprituality , Rajesh’s ‘logies’ , Myna’s philosophies and few others blogs .. Did i miss out anything ? ya Jasir’s comment asking for ele n kicha stories .. hey Jasir will write series soon … Haan .. am waiting for the Divya’s revelation of her “mysterious sweetheart” Always nice to hear love stories and eagerly utterly butterly truly waiting for Divya’s blog on it !!!
Ok , i was thinking how to start a new blog after so long time .. was wondering what to write but now i think i managed one blogfull of lines
C ya in nex blog .. !!!!

Pichke Ele and Kicha boy
One day our Pichke Ele was walking thro a river bank lined wit trees The water was flowing gently .. and there was freshness in the air .. Pichke Ele as usual was in a lazy dreamy mood n was walking carefree .. As it was walking by , he heard a sobbing voice .. Pichke looked here n there and found a boy sitting under a tree .
"What happened dear , Why do u cry ? " Pichke asked the litl boy
" none of your business leave me alone " said the boy .
Pichke Ele said " Ok .. well .. its none of my business but then Lion king is on a prowl .. God help u " So said Pichke and pretended as if he is walking ahead but was watching the litl boy thro the corner of the eye..
" Don't leave me and go "
" Well .. never mind .. walk with me then "
" What's your name ? " Picke asked looking at the litl kid ..
" Kicha "
" Wats
" People in my island call me Pichke ele , so u can also call me Pichke ele " so said the Pichke with a boisterous laugh
" So Kicha , why are you sad ? if you think I could be your friend you can share with me "
Kicha looked at Pichke for a moment .. a silent moment .. and said in a slow but sad tone " No body likes me ' I am ugly . I hate myself " and started weeping ..
Pichke turned to Kicha and lifted him with his trunk and kept him on his mighty back ..
" Well Kicha .. tell me what is beauty "
" Beauty is looking attractive .. the appearance .. look at my face am very ugly .. I hate myself .. "
Pichka was strolling in a gently and nonchalantly said Kicha " Do u think am beautiful "
" Kicha said " ya u r attractive .. "
" Why do you think am attractive ?"
" Coz you are looking good "
Pichka smiled at Kicha and lifted him and placed him before him " Kicha everyone are born beautiful .. haven't u seen new born babies .. they all look beautiful Even you .. even me .. everyone are beautiful when they are born "
" then why am I ugly now " Kicha asked Pichke with almost tears in his eyes ..
" ok .. You know why I look attractive with glowing face ? Shal I give you the secret for beauty ? " Pichke winked at Kicha
"REALLY ? " Kicha asked with a surprise and a unbelievable smile in his face ..
" Well well well .. I will really give it to you if you would follow it "
"TELL ME !!!! " Kicha was happy when Pichke said this ..
Pichke smiled at kicha " See you already started looking beautiful with a smile on
Kichke looked at Pichke .. looked at the twinke in its eyes and the beauty it radiates and smiled and took hold of its trunk and said " You are right my friend , I can see it in your eyes .. now I know the secret of beauty !!! " and hugged pichke ..
Pichke lifted Kicha and said " Oye ! you started looking beautiful and I can see the radiance in your face .. "
Kicha smiled shyly .. and hugged Pichke ..
" now kicha , your village has come go run to your home its getting late " told Pichke to kicha ..
Kicha got down and before leaving took a choclate from his pocket and gave it to Pichka ..

I feel it would make a good coffee table book if i could develop the title into a full volume . But what the hell err kitchen am i going to write ??????????? or Should i co-author the book wit Tarla dalal into a cooking book or may be with Kushwant singh and spice it up or should i co-author with Kavya vishwanathan and rip off the other english novels and make it a blockbuster ?????? or should i publish an e-book and distribute on net ?????? Or should i write and forget and one day the future generation will find a hidden treasure ?????? or should i wait for the comments i would get for this post screaming at me : ” what the hell do u think . now STOP YOUR SAMBAR POST AND HAVE A DRINK IN SAM BAR ”
