Yes, I am a Girl!

Yes, I am a Girl! I don't like fine clothes to refine myself. They give me beautiful looks- And take away my freedom to move. Give me coarse cloth so let me fly. I don't like fine clothes- Yes, I am a girl! I don't like bangles to adorn my arms. They remind me of restrictions- Without any question, all girls should imply. Give me tools to build new wonders. I don't like bangles- Yes, I am a girl! I don't like jewellery to define myself. They illuminate me for what reason- But I have the right to claim I am not a thing on display.  Give me education so my identity I can portray. I don't like jewellery- Yes, I am a girl!

Wondering What My Bucket List Would Be Like!

Wondering what my #BucketList would be like , Credit goes to #Lufthansa for igniting my sprite. Heart says go to the places most beautiful in the world. Conscious says love every place you visit enthused. Heart and conscience agree to the decision most apt, Say yes to the world, come out of your zone. Lives have a meaning who travel to explore. Pen scribbled veracity, my most cherished aims, Wonders of the world came as clearcut options.   Want to witness Turquoise blue Moraine Lake  flare, Blushing as the mountains reflect in its layers. Or awe-inspiring Iguazu waterfalls to get mesmerised, Explore the water cascades, some small and some big, Magnificent display of nature you bet it be.  Could be jaw-dropping Palawan islands   With most beautiful beaches,  El Nido being one more on my explore bucket list.  Why do you love the world? Share your bucket list and get a chance to win The Blind List, an unforgettab...

Mighty Sergeant

Hold on! O'Mighty Sergeant, What you deserve is naught, The Death of a Coward, Nor should your tears become, Humorous affair among your subordinates..   The one who killed your son, Was naught your enemy personal, What drove him to the deed, Was the service towards his country. He too, Like you,Is a patriot; He too, Like you, Loves his children; He too, Like you, adores his wife; He too, Like any soldier, Fights to protect his motherland. Then, why should he be blamed; For the misdeed , That is considered an honour, In his own Country. When.. all that war gives To the petty soldier, Is the Barbarous bloodshed, Each one fighting in the battleground, Is bound to meet the same extremity. Have you naught been taught, To battle till the last breath , Have you naught been disciplined enough, To train your Heart to be as hard as a rock. Your duty is to fight, In harsh war rigors, Let the emotions naught dilute your ardour.
