Yaadein—the earlier version

Hello Friends & Fellow Islanders!


It's been a very great feeling to be on the Rediff Homepage for almost 4 days from the 17th to the 20th. Thank You for all the Good Wishes that you have sent my way. Unfortunately, being very busy, I could not write any special piece for this occasion.. so, I am posting  the draft version of Yaadein (I had discarded this version halfway, and am posting it as it was) .


 


 


Kuch kagaaz ke tukde jaise


Charon taraf bikhar gaye the


Hawayon mein kuch udd rahe the


Kuch paani mein doob gaye the


 


Dafnayen hue yaadein phir se


Aaj achanak jaag uthi hain


Kuch paas aa kar haath milate


Kuch door se bhi rula rahe hain


 


Yaadein raaste rok rahi thi


Zindagi aage bula rahi thi


Soch rahi thi kiski sunu ab


Beech bhawar mein khadi hui main


 


 


Manzilein kab kahan chhooti thi


Ab yaad karke kya karun main


Zindagi ke haath thaame


Nayee raah pe nikal padi main.

    Hawa ke kuchh aise jhonke hote hai, ,
    Aksar Dhakel dete hain, ,
    Usi yadon ke kuayen me , Jinko kabhi , ,
    Waqt ne bhar diya tha, ,
    Ek ehasas dila jate hai, ,
    Ke Shakh se tut kar bhi, ,
    Tum kabhi juda ho na paoge, ,
    Apni baton se apni un yado se, ,
    Hawa ke kuchh aise jhonke hote hai, ,

    a motivational poem - rightly said there is no use on crying on split milk……Jeevan chalane ka naam,chalate raho subah-o-sham.

    Zindagi ke haath thaamey nayi manzil ko nikal padi main……… its too beautiful. And this is true too….You might have heard : forget the past; dont think of future and take the life as it comes…….. This is a very beautiful sentence, whosoever has written and that keeps us alive. I like your poem and its positive attitude.
