Reopening Blues

It was a wonderful vacation. Lotta reasons to cherish. It started with my husband's visit. My father in law nodded to give way to new house. My sister came from USA after two years. My son got admitted in the school in which my daughter studies. So, kinda busy buying books, stitching uniforms etc. Until May the vacation went on well. Then started the reopening blues. To beat the blue, my mom got new bag, water bottle, new koblerr sandals, dress etc. The day came. After so much of fatigue(???!!!) coz of two months vacation, I went to college yesterday in a brand new saree and sandals. I forgot to mention, i took my new water bottle and tupperware lunch box in new USA handbag (courtesy sis)!!!!!! he he he, the reopening blue is not for my children but for me!!!!!!!!!!

My maiden poem(!!@#$%^&*?)

Inspired by my friend's poem, i was frantically looking to write something in the name of poem. (please do not bring log for posting this in the blog, ada idhu kooda kavidhaiya irukke! he he he...) Initially I thought poem is all about some rhyming words and alliterations streaming out of a pensive mind. Huh, it was not easy as i thought. When i zeroed on some concept to be translated into a poetic form i ran out of words. When i got reminded of wonderful rhyming words, i could not weave them meaningfully. So, i found out, when we seriously attempt to write a poem, the very fabric of poem would be lost. Poem is all about spontaneity!
This is the outcome of my craving for poems. (no prizes for guessing that i dropped the idea of writing poems after) I thank my friend for giving a title for the poem.


A sandy beach never cloys!


We chose a place
Where nature plays!

Sitting in the twilight with starry eyes
Looking at the reflections on the dark water bay

Walking in the sand with mild gasp
With hand in hand in a loving clasp

Looking at a big sheet of water ebb
Listening each other’s glib,

Oh, a diet of candy may cloy,
But, sandy beach is always a joy!
