No Regrets


Wish I asked lesser questions,

Would have made more friends,

But knowledge turned out to be a good friend


Wish I rebelled a little less,

Would have been liked by more,

But maybe wouldn't have liked myself much


Wish I dressed up more often,

More compliments my way would have been nice,

But then I found beauty all around me


Wish I had taken those advices seriously,

My life would look cleaner with less mistakes,

However, I doubt I would have learnt enough 


Wish I faked and been chirpier and funnier person,

Easily could have broken popularity charts,

Yes, but that would have lasted only in social media world 


Wish I obeyed and stuck to ways of the world,

People would have judged me a little less,

Hmm..nopes fun is to walk the talk


Wish I was more focused and ambitious,

Success, fame and wealth would have been a charm,

But how much charm should I chase in this one little life ? 


Wish I climbed those steps...Wish this and that,

Then life would have been a bed of roses,

Alas, I would have failed to recognize the real me


Now I wish people leave those regrets aside,

Move ahead and accept the reflection inside

Spark of Love


The poem talks of the most treasured riches of my life - my family.


Pure as a mother’s love;

Strong as father’s shoulders;

Warm as a sister’s hug;

No money, no precious gifts can trade that,

No treasury can ever raid the heart from that.

What I call as the true riches of my life.

Few are blessed with this kind of life.

Take away my fame, my money and my life whole,

Leave me alone with just my own soul.

The soul that is filled with the love I cherish,

This is the only possession I embellish.

See me build my life from the scratch,

See the phoenix rise from the ash.

These are the wonders love can do,

This is what makes me true.
