Lost angels.


Flood of hopes was forceful and
It brought us to the ecstasy land
With the sea reckoning the dreams
And smiles flowing in the nearby streams.
The sun had every reason feel glad
As on this day, new toddler was born from sand.

She was called as goddess of earth
She was called off what she was worth
She was here with some intention,
She was here to placate all the associations
She was not a naive in the world
Universe was pleased by her birth.

There came a smirk and earth lost the gem
Flood of hopes reverted back to the frame
The early birds struggled to conceal the melancholy
But the sun went behind the clouds, shedding tears, forlornly.
She wasn't liked by someone who was not the same
He was the evil spirit, disgrace to the human’s name.

He took her away in the darkest of the nights
He had no regret, pity or the slightest plight.
She got scared and screamed for help,
Yet no one bothered to hear her yelps.
Mercy was denied and she was at the height
The toddler was helpful and surmounted by fright.

By now she was released and was in the air
Couldn't be rescued and it wasn't at all fair.
She was put forth for what she didn't deserve
She couldn't do for what she was reserved.
Death facing her and she could just glare
Still the feeling to defeat which was too rare.

Daily, these angels have to surrender
No one’s there to save them ever
If this goes on, angels will be lost
And all just will be at the honor’s cost
World has to fight and must be fairer
Nature must smile with world, happy and merrier.

How are we inspired by advertisements?



   It wouldn't be an unusual scenario, watching a lady dancing with all bliss because she has her clothes shining white (probably in a brand advertisement). We couldn't even envisage some of the outrageous scenes in our lives before the advertisements, were publicized.
   We see famous actresses like Katrina and Kareena complaining about their hair fall and dandruff problems. It leaves us wondering if their shampoos affect only temporarily leaving them with their problems again after some days. It might sound funny, but the hyperbole shown by beauty products in their ads are found quite inspiring by people all over. Rather than telling us to accept us as we are, it tells us how impurities reside in our skins and we are not beautiful as we think.
  Advertisements tell us to spray deodorants to catch people’s attention. Women can even get fascinated to waiters if they use effective deodorants. They have taglines stating even angels can fall for you if you use a certain spray. What happened to the old concept that a beautiful heart can attract more hearts rather than a beautiful face?
  Even daily and basic things like toothpaste are advertised in a splendid way! The child got cavities using ordinary toothpaste. But then he was told to use other toothpaste recommended by dentists all over the world and now he had sparkling and healthy teeth.
  
   This shows us to what extent brand can go to advertise their products; ‘Use it or see your life getting destroyed’.

  Some of them give out excellent messages like we see in havells: ‘hava badal de’. These ads can have an enormous impact on viewers in a positive way. But as I mentioned, it’s ‘some’.
  Maximum of the ads give out wrong morals to the public. Not every person is rational enough to decide what advertise they should be inspired by.

   These ads flash on out TV screens every now and then. We can’t obviate them. All we can do is take the good and let the bad. And everything depends on us how we see it. Believe that your skills and intelligence can help you win the world.

    So don’t get influenced by beauty products saying:’get beautiful and the world will be yours’.

what did cascading teach us?

  "Oh no, brakes' not working" I muttered to myself. Down I went with acceleration in the wheels of my bicycle. I'd been told that the slope was somewhat unusual. Still, the faith on me and my bike got me going through. I'd no idea what was going to happen to me in the next few seconds. With all my efforts, I tried to provide friction with my feet. Still, it was fruitless.
  Till now, I was convinced that I was going to have a terrible fall. But there was no clue, when was that going to happen. Suddenly, slope found a plain path and with all my hindrance that my feet could provide, my cycle stopped and I tumbled down. With the hills and dales of the path, my knee was severely injured with rashes leaving it bleeding.
 My friend came running with dismayed expressions. She assisted me to get up. To everybody's surprise, I had a smile on my face. Even though whatever happened in last few moments was horrifying, it was a well known feeling. It was not something I had experienced for the first time. I saw the wound which was severely bleeding and summoned up the childhood memories. I recalled the time when I'd learned riding bike. The cascades had been petrifying at that time, leaving me crying for hours. But as I grew up, falling down became a part of my life.
  Games included my ardent play and surrendering me to the sport in which I and my friends have fallen for multitude of times. The falls taught us to help and assist each other in bad times. If I'd been afraid of falling before learning to ride bike, I'd have never learnt it. It resembles to our lives as 'if we were afraid of failing, we wouldn't have stood up on our own feet'.
  Falls in our lives make us strong human beings. They teach us to battle, defend and make a new beginning. If a person hasn't experienced something bad, he might not make efforts for success considering the past failures. And in the end, that's what life is all about, taking risks, keeping faith and surviving.
  Then why not take risks and experience falls? It might teach you to rise from it all by yourself.

Delhi- capital of the country?

The city of love as it was defined,
‘dilwalon ki’ it was always described,
Royal heritage it possesses,
the great history of which it had the traces.

The ravishing city had the face,
with awe for it and the somber grace.
But day by day, beauty faded away,
Taking away, the sparkling sun’s ray.

Daily headlines abashed the city,
With time passing by, women lost their sovereignty.
The horrifying eyes, eyed them with no pity,
Left all the women scared and petrified in the city.

Still, some had the courage to stand up again
Revolve and protest against the evil and wicked brains.
The city can’t lose its grace this way
It is the capital of the country anyway.

With hope in hearts and plans in the mind,
We can fight and leave evil behind,
To all those who thought women are tender feebly
They are strong enough to defeat you bleakly.

Do we achieve our goals?

   Clouds would have been impossible if the air planes weren't invented. Communicating would have been just a rare incident in years if telephones weren't discovered. The prominent minds were not only bright, but also imaginative who imagined the innovations before they were invented.
      Every child is born with a creative mind who creates a colorful and interesting scenario in mind of his future as he grows up. He dreams, imagines and is rigid enough to work on the goals relevant to his interest. 
    There would have been a bulky number of sportsmen, musicians and mountaineers around the world if these dreams would have been true enough. Many of these dreams are strangled by fate and circumstances as a child grows up. The innocent eyes are startled when they encounter the menacing truths of the life.
      Students are taught to choose a career that can provide them with enough money to survive. The growing costs of necessities are shown as the sign of red alert before the child chooses his field. There are myriad students opting engineering and medical. In some way or the other they end up in academics. The tender limbs which grew running on the tracks are made to sink into books for their careers. 
      A career in music, arts or sports is considered to be too risky. As a result, India has only handful of sportsmen and rising talent. Creativity among the young is fading away in a devastating manner. We find it hard to know that who is throttler. If imagination is faded away, we might not be able to imagine the future excogitations.  If dreams are not given roots, the tree might grow into a dry stature with unhappy state of minds and wont do any good to the country.
