its been a while

the journey in.

I choose between the two

Fixed my gaze upon the one that stares right back into it

Until it takes me in

To a world familiar yet unexplored.

Vivid colors….chaos.

Just a child.

It never really ages …does it?

I wish I could be here for long. no reason to do so. not yet.

I wish.

Just a wink….and then there’s a twinkle,

its all over.

The journey ends.

the story of the blue

Although words refuse to give in to my demands of expression:

This story has a dream.

A dream about the distant peace, which occupies the mind.

The blue awaits curiously.

"I know what you mean when you say, you don’t know"

It knows what it is like to fly.

The blue wants peace.

"It was there with me when I did not want it to be.

Now it isn’t"

Violated. Conquered. lost. are just words.

The dream shows the way…or does it?

“Tell me I'm not asleep.

Tell me it is true”

clouds they be

"Cloudy..........

My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy,

They have no borders, no boundaries.

They echo and they swell

From Tolstoy to Tinker Bell.

Down from Berkeley to Carmel.

Got some pictures in my pocket and a lot of time to kill."

the much needed trip.....

A short trip to Digha ShankarpurMandarmoni and nearby areas by car....in WestBengal, India. all the places situated at a distance of 160 kms (approx) from Kolkata. I wanted to go out of the city for a long time and then just as my impatience reached a saturation point my parents were kind enough to plan this trip. These are popular beach spots in this part of the country. But i wanted to capture something more than that.

the dream bird

unless i want to.....

this snap was taken on the terrace of a building situated at one of the busiest roads in kolkata...esplanade. this aint an abandoned building. on the terrace itself,while randomly clicking away,we noticed a family comfortably settled out there.

DURBY.i discovered how well he can 'sing' in our college freshers.he is this very 'helpful' and 'kind', person.....who has an amazing 'memory'. skimming 'pebbles' on water is totally his thing.he should be called the 'chowmein mirinda boy' of our college.this boy has an amazing ability to judge 'eyes'.thanks to him,im into watching 'foreign' movies now...good ones at that. he is indeed very 'witty'...and 'cracks' some nice ones every now and then.god bless.

incase you are wondering why certain words are highlighted....its because of his fascination with "keywords".... :)
