mai aur meri tanhaayi

mai aur meri tanhaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain.

wo saam jaha mai darwaaje pe
dastak deta firta hu.
wo raat jaha aankhon me meri
neend naa aaya karti hai.
wo waqt jaha ruk jaata hai
thham jaata hai,saham jaata hai.
wo sadak jaha sunsaaniyat
ik raaz banaye baithhi hai.
mai aur meri tanhaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain..
tum hote to kya hota.....

tum hote to himmat milti
iss sapno me chalne waale ko
sapno se aagey nikalne ki.
tum hote to ik waqt ke liye
kavi to mujhe sataya karte.
meri wafaon ko yaad kar ke
kavi to mujhe rulaya karte.
kavi to tanik waqt ke liye
mujh se fariyaad kiya karte.
kavi to tanik waqt ke liye
mujhe barbaad kiya karte.
mai aur meri tanhaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain..
tum hote to kya hota....

jab jism aansuon ko
aane se roke rakhta hai.
jab sunsaan sadak pe saath mere
mera saaya chalta hai.
jab baraamde se kisi raat
chaand naza naa aata hai.
jab ashk ke jawaab mei vi
ashk nikal naa paata hai.
mai aur meri tanhaaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain...
tum hote to kya hota....

jab waqt ke jawaab mei
seesha main foora karta hu.
jab boottlon ki dhakaanein
daaton se toora karta hu.
jab vheer ko saathh liye
khud akela chalta hu.
jab khud se hi ladta hu
girta hu ..sambhaltaa hu..
mai aur meri tanhaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain
tum hoote to kya hoota.

uss paar kahin dur tak
andhere mei ake sahar -sa hai.
iss paar har raushaandaan mei
dudhiya saa ujala hai.
fir kahin se ik roosini
pattiyon se chha kar aati hai.
aviyaantriki eeton(engineering bricks) se takraa kar
yahin kahin khoo jaati hai.
mai aur meri tanhaayi
akshar ye baatein karti hain...
tum hote to kya hoota.

लाइटर

मैं सिगरेट तो नहीं पीता खैर इत्तेफ़ाक़ से लाइटर रखता हूँ | वो एक लाइटर जो कोई मेरे टेबल पे छोड़ गया था ; सबो - रात साथ साथ चलता है | जाने अनजाने किसी चौराहे माचिस की कश्मकश में भटकते दो एक आवारे मिल जाते हैं, मैं लाइटर बढ़ा देता हूँ | बड़ा सुकून है इसमें किसी को बेपनाह जलते देखना और फिर चुप चाप निकल जाना , नए हमनवा की तलाश में || शायद लाइटर के साथ साथ कोई एक नैतिक जिम्मेदारी छोड़ गया है इसे जलाते रहने का इसे जंग से बचाने का | काफी कुछ पेट्रोलियम कैद है उन्मुक्ति की उम्मीद लिए ; क्या पता ऐसे ही मिट जाए धरा का अँधेरा इन नन्हीं नन्हीं चिंगड़ियों से ||

KERALA TOURISM :DAY 2 and ALLEPPEY BACKWATERS

May be because " It's always our self we find in the sea.” or may be because the strong analogy water hold with life as it goes on irrespective of whatever it dissolves ...or may be the inductive serenity , You never get tired of water . “It is life, I think, to watch the water. A man can learn so many things.” ― Nicholas Sparks , The Notebook Comfort ,freedom, an aura of redemption and the sunny rays reflecting back from waves ,kissing my cheeks and knowingly or unknowingly melting the sun cream ...I have never expected more than this from nature . The day with Alappuzha/Alleppey was precisely a floating day :Six good hours of boating across Alleppey backwaters . And it all began like this The panoramic view of back waters taken from boat Coconut trees have its own charm."And the kerala coconut beer is a must try, its sumptuous in taste and cheaper than kingfisher "said one resident. Anyway it w...

KERALA TOURISM : namkeen paani and day 1

Before I start putting the glances of god’s own country as they say ,that train journey extended over the span of 48 hours deserves a firm mention . The worst part of story was : no pantry car ,that simply means food was an issue and was like a setback to foodie people .People were racing between the halt time of train bringing something and something as its good to have something than nothing .And the best part of the story was : Chinua Acheyba . I was rushing through his cult classic magnum opus “ things fall apart ” till end of the journey before I completed it . And when ever I passed by a lingering line ,it was a time to take a break and discuss. "When the moon is shining the cripple becomes hungry for a walk." Anyway the breaks were variably filled by playing cards, sleeping and of course arguments. Prolixity has never been alien to this country . You just need t...
