Blue skies

Green Park London, 2011
It would be nice sometimes,
To escape to a place,
Where no one talked, no one looked.
Where I could sit by myself,
And feel just good to be alive,
Not pretty, not ugly.
Nor right and neither wrong,
Just alive.

It would be nice sometimes,
To run to a world,
Where no one knows where they are going,
And where no one cares.

Imphal 2011



Everyone sits, just in the moment.
No one looks your way.
They just smile to themselves,
Happy in their own worlds.

Where there are only blue skies,
And no grey clouds.

Two worlds apart, My Moo and I. Barter and trade stories, our lives, Two worlds apart. Peek into our sides, Do right the wrongs. So far away, And yet make things work. My moo and I.

Through glimpses into each other's lives, we learn.. Too much work and no play ain't no fun. Too much play and no work leads nowhere. And so my Moo and I, We sit together, Too worlds apart. And make wrongs right.

Right, the music, which was the reason for this particular gathering, and which my father thinks deserves a review from my side. The music. Two years ago, I happened to attend the same event, and by no means do I mean this as a compliment, they sang the same songs. The same faces, the same kind of music, the same gaudy lights. Manipur is rich in diversity.. of people, of flora and fauna, and so on.But when it comes to music, specifically the mainstream music, it is sadly still lagging behind. Most of this so called "Manipuri music" are "inspired" (a more generous word to replace "copied") by/from Hindi or Korean music.. to the extent...

love at first sight, they say

 At first a non believer, all Love took was a glance and talk at the local cafe, He walked into my life like a tornado and nothing remained the same. Flowers blossomed, birds chirped and the once lonely heart beat back to life. Years down the road, over some kathi rolls and coffee, We plan our happily ever after and laugh with glee.
