As I Stand

As I stand, alone gazing at the rising sun
Far from my inner self that burns
I wonder, about those roads I have covered
I question, what should I rediscover?


The thoughts are hobnobbing in my mind
Without even giving a space for me to find
That which I have left far behind
Nevertheless the thoughts still grind


My soul is parched and dry
This does not even allow me to cry
As I think what else should I try?
In this world, then at last I sigh


In brief.......
I should conquer my own grief
Only then will I be bereaved
The only chance to re-live.....


So that when I stand alone again gazing at the rising sun
I know which way to turn
Grasping those duties which i had left undone
Only then can I also be a bright sun.

To my surprise in the very next class, when the teacher  was teaching us social studies she said that a fertilized soil helps a seed to grow........................ The scientist in me could neither agree to the results, nor the theorems until experimented. Since I was a low profile scientist, I did not have my personal study room. The garden was the only place spared to m...

A Brief on: Spring Dale Resort, Devikulum

Spring Dale resort is situated at Devikulam in the Idukki district of Kerala(India).   Away from the hustle and bustle, this magnificent spot is located in amidst of the Kannan Devan Hills. The nearest town being Munnar is situated at a distance of about 37kms at a lower altitude. Cool, serene and picturesque this resort is indeed a retreat for nature lovers. Hues of the mountains, tea gardens, trees and flowers surround the resort. One can only feel the silence of nature which is occasional broken by a fast passing vehicle. While striding through the green meadows you can only hear the bees humming and the birds chirping and whistling to keep up the rhythm of the string less symphony. Wood peckers noisily make aware of their existence.               Spring Dale Attraction Resort Garden The Spring Dale resort at Devikulam is an old mansion that has been converted. The resort is a wonderful fusion of the India...
