Poem: Sanguinity

  Life may not thrive expectedly, Reckon it as learning   Road may not be even, Ascertain from pitfalls   It may not always be sunny, Rejoice the rain and stars   Friends may not always welcome you, Revere the silence and solitude   Love may not reciprocate your feelings, Value the one who loves … Read more

Introspection: Let’s Know Ourselves Better

  Every human being, habitually or unintentionally, is quite possessive about his own self. This is evident from the amount of time one allocates to selecting own food or clothing or in maintaining health, career or relationships as well as on pursuing hobbies or passion.

Lipogram: Sky is Limit

In order to make it more challenging and interesting, I decided to use only one vowel “I”, throughout the poem. I hope that justifies the title “Sky is Limit” 🙂

Hope you enjoy reading it too!
