Copying Others

Tina and Pinky were very good friends. They used to go to school together and since they lived in same building both would play together as well.
Though Tina and Pinky were bright students Tina would always score better than pinky. Pinky would feel disappointed and wonder why does Tina always have upper hand in studies. But when it came to sports pinky would always come first and tina would always fall behind. But tina never felt disappointed or jealous. She would whole heartedly praise and congratulate pinky.
One day during class test tina as usual scored 10 out of 10 and pinky scored 8 out of 10. Pinky was again unhappy looking at her score. After reaching home she was sitting in her room and then suddenly thought why not she check with Tina and follow Tina’s study pattern. So she decided that now on she will always check with Tina which subject is she studying and she too will study the same subjects. Tina was very good at math and whereas pinky was good in social studies.
Next day in school the mid term exam dates where announced. Pinky immediately decided that she would study with tina. Tina happily agreed and aftr school every evening pinky would go to tinas house to study. Tina knew which subject she wanted more attention and had planned accordingly and decided to give more importance to those subjects. She told pinky the same thing that she too should plan her studies and give more importance to subjects which she is weak at. Pinky thought tina was misguiding her and was studying the same subjects what tina was studying. Since tina was good at math so shedecided that she would work on math only a day before math exam But pinky was bit slow in maths and since she was copying tinas study habits she too neglected maths. Exams started and the first subject was math. So as planned tina picked her math book and started working on various calculations a day before exam. Pinky too picked her book to solve the math calculations. But she was seeing stars. She was not able to complete even one chapter after struggling for 2 hrs. Whereas tina had already completed half of the portion.
Pinky got very nervous. She din know what to do. She started crying as she was not able to understand some topics. Tina asked pinky the reason for her outbreak. Pinky told her the reason. At this Tina said “I had told you earlier itself that you should give importance to subjects which you are weak at. But you did not listen to me”. She further said “I know you would get unhappy when I score more than you and that’s why you wanted to cooy my study pattern”.
Tin held pinkys hand and told we are good friends. Don’t let jealously come in way of our friendship. Each person is unique and each one has their own strength and weakness.
Pinky realised her mistake and hugged tina and apologised to her. Tina said “ Now wipe off your tears. I will help you with Maths”.
Tina helped pinky with her studies and pinky fared well in the exam

Laziness Never Pays

In a forest lived a squirrel.

The squirrel was very lazy and would spend most of its time sleeping or playing pranks on other animals and making fun of them.

There was an ant who was the squirrel’s neighbor. The squirrel would always make fun of the ant by saying “ Why do you always work like a slave. Why don’t you enjoy your life like me”. “ Just look at me. I enjoy my life to the fullest. What do you get by working so hard ? ”.
The ant did not speak anything as she knew there was no point talking to the squirrel.
One day there was an announcement in the forest that there would be heavy rains for the next few days. The ant decided to stock up on food so that she will have enough food to survive the harsh climate. She thought that as soon as the rain ended she may not be able to go hunting for food and hence decided to store sufficient food to last for a few months. She had food in her store room but still decided to store more food.
The ant was busy stocking up food and the squirrel as usual was playing and doing nothing.
Within a couple of days it started raining very heavily in the forest. It rained and rained. Days went by, then weeks went by, but still the rain did not stop.
The ant was safely staying at home and was not worrying much because she had sufficient food to last for a few months.
One day the ant was sipping her tea sitting by the window and enjoying the rain when she saw the squirrel running from tree to tree.
She thought the squirrel would be upto some mischief and just ignored it.
Next day when the ant was just relaxing on her couch she heard a soft thud. She ran to the window and peeped outside and she saw the squirrel lying on the ground. At first she thought the squirrel was as usual playing pranks. But she noticed that it was raining very heavily and the squirrel was not moving an inch. She got a bit worried and took her umbrella and went near the squirrel. When she reached near, she noticed that the squirrel was lying there unconscious. She hurriedly dragged the squirrel to her house. Covered him with a blanket and when the squirrel gained consciousness, she gave a hot cup of coffee to drink.
The squirrel felt ashamed of his previous behavior towards the ant and hung his head down in shame and asked for forgiveness. The ant told the squirrel that she has forgiven him and that we should always be prepared for the worst and hard work pays. She then shared her food with the squirrel until the end of rains and the squirrel changed from being lazy to being prepared and helping others.

Smart Deer

Once a upon a time there lived a deer in a forest. Once day the deer was returning home after finishing work at a nearby farm.
On the way the deer was stopped by a tiger. The tiger was hungry and wanted to kill the deer for food. The deer pleaded infront the tiger to let her go. But the tiger was adamant and din want to let go off the deer. The deer was thinking of ways to escape this situation and reach home.
Suddenly the deer realised that morning when she was going to work the deer had seen a pit near the big banyan tree.
The deer told the tiger if you leave me I wil show you a place where you will get fresh meat everyday. There is a group of cows grazing near by and the owner comes only in the evening. So you can eat to your content everyday.
The tiger agreed to this and as suggested by the deer started following the deer. Just as the deer had planned as soon as she reached near the pit the deer took a huge leap and the tiger unaware of this fell in the pit and broke his bone.
The smart deer ran home happily.

June 2015 on

Then begins era of power hungry money grabbers follow right after
see many corporate Dracula’s there who can easily plough back benefits
to consumers or needy of the world

There you go frowning
shut yourself self down
oblivious of chimes
one sense at a time
leave tribulations behind
draw life force within
Nirvana beckons thee

At the behest of reality
Consciousness took shape
Intelligence formed structure
Thoughts performed
Ignorance prevailed
Destroyed existence
Reality suffers

Light shrieks through space

Burns through cloudy atmosphere
Pierce through skin

rain beckons wetness

Slithers down mossy greens

gusty winds feed

God created earth in 10 days
Made a man and woman out of mud from Africa
A snake scared them and made them eat an apple.
Neanderthals were their offsprings and lost color in Europe
Animals and birds were transported in a boat
Fish were in water is swimming while sea parted
Egyptians Mayans ancient Indians all prayed natural things and powerful objects emitting magnetic and Strong energy of well being
Built huge structures for don’t know what .
Rules of good and bad appeared in books .
Compiled from different writers and constitution .
Following blindly without using brains is today’s humans .
All writing from same source but fights their book is better. Their country is better , their constitution , economy is better .

Ringing the Bell

the sound of resonates

Air vibrates

Traversing space

Echoing through mediums

creating pathways

Clanging bells

Noise wards off evil

Human belief

Life is like an empty sheer of paper

Deciding on what kind of pen to use.

Or will a pencil and eraser do?

Is there a specific subject; or can it be imagined or stolen

Will another page come by and make it a story?

Or will it be a novel, poem or article ?

Can it be a thriller , fiction or turn out to be cartoons ?

Many years does it take for acclaim.

Many eyes shall read and proclaim.

The greatness of what was once

A blank sheet of paper with brooding eyes

To be written or be thrown

Sometimes we see the light
Sometimes the spark
It all started the same way
An enormous explosion

Of emotions unknown
Desires and craving
Fear obscure
Impatient

The spark cascades
Consumes and exudes
Grows up arrogant
Vain and intolerant

The cycle of life
Seeks another
A victim of pleasure
Procreation

Until the light goes out
And the sparks dwindle
Sometimes we see the light
Sometimes the spark

December 2014 to may 2015

too many sunsets
Wondered why shadow decreased
Sun rise after long

backside of the heart
Lies Hidden emotions
Bright Like back of moon
Jan 25

Glorious morning
Happy to meet alive self
Shaman continues

New revelation
Something knocking to get out
Child finds her heart beat

Jazzy’s #haiku

The power of light..
Vibrates through the core of earth
Human awakens

Streets light up at night
moon looks for his partner
Throbbing hearts

Evening sun rays
Reflection on windowpane
Plants bathe again

Sadness in birds eyes
His hoarse calls seeking a mate
Winter sets in

Help me!
I want to ask u
No one in sight

The sea looks calm
Waves ebb and flow
Sands of time drift

Face in the grass
Choosing the tastiest
Grazing

warm wooded morning
straining under ebb and flow
soft breeze throbs away

a wiff and a sip
warm Pungent sweetness flows
the glass gets drunk

Birds take shelter
night comes in broad daylight
eerie silence

#eclipse ©@Surajvinay@gmail.com.

dark clouds of sadness part
thunderous voices resound from past
flashes bright of inspirations abate
gusts of dejection and bitterness dissipate

the path lays littered to trod on,
crystal clear happiness beckon..
oh! human you are not the first
and I Suraj am not the last

Rainbows all around
Happy Water splashes loud
Bubbles fill bathtub

Clear dawn sky
Birds fly silently
Cars roar by

Blow into a wish
dandelion sorrows_
Find happiness

find solace in love
find Meaning of existence
Where not thrives life

-eternally yours

The world created out of consciousness
saw, amazed, realized, hoped, wished
Received out of thoughtfulness
Peace and turmoil hand in hand
Where there is one, there is another
What one gives out to the world
The world receives and gives out the other
Caused, suffered , delivered
Thus shall it be so.

Halo round the moon
After a torrid Eclipse
Lonely heart sighs

Light up a smoke
Journey of thousand miles
Travelled in minutes

So bitter
You don’t need to taste it
Life sucks.

Tired moon..
Behind veil of clouds moving
Tires grind the road

sun and rain pass
beside swings motionless
await happy squeals

Misty morning woes
Rust creeps in
Silent toddler swings

heat of summer soars
Flashes of lightning teases
Fish in cool water

Smoggy morning
Happy people off to work
Spewing nauseous fumes
Honking to glory…
Coughs and wheezes
Struggling to breathe
Another day goes by
Squeezing inhaler

Reality….
Painted on canvas
Floral tribute

A lifetime waltzing, artists queuing, media glaring
The fame and glory, slowly fading, withdrawing
home so crowded, now lonely memories
confined by windows and walls
creaking bones as age catches up and death beckons from afar
Days go by yearning the forgotten days
Glimpses of glory, faintly remember
Of someone,something, somewhere
From the window across the road
she reminiscences
A life well spent bountiful wishes

Deft strokes layers paint
Copy colors of nature
Canvas thickens

Thinking of all the shit in my life
She came along
So pretty she sways
In her pretty dress
So blind she is lookin out
Pretty things fly by

Look pretty
Smile at the camera
Act genuine
Speak someone’s writing
Dress nice
Sing someone’s song
Dance to steps
Reach for the stars
Fake it real
Live for masses
Mark up their prices
Sell them your stuff
Be the judge and their jury
Life in the media
hypocrisy at its best
Perfect role model
Tears are not real
Road to success
One frame at a time

old lady on the road
sleeping in between divider
opposite psr silk, woodlands, goldfinch
food provided by a kid
called white doves who asked to call 108
called 108 who asked who patient is and check what ails her
Called Wenlock hospital no one picked
Friend went there and enquired told to call 100
Called 100 reached bangalore

Glorious morning rays
Old lady seeking alms
appears with extended hand
Pouted I, shook my head
Let her know no coins exists
in constantly draining pant pockets
Pulled out the purse and checked
Went for the paper instead
A crisp note gave her did I
And no remorse go by
Beckoned she to show my head
Over crown passed her hand
Like a sweet mothers caress
For a child with care so nice
happens she wore a burqa in mist
Where fear, repercussions and bias exist
When it comes to show gratitude
boundaries dissappear of solitude
So say I in the morning sun
On a life’s journey take one
Where butterfly feeds free
On bounties that eyes can see
Give all what you have
Receive what you will crave

Later another Lady in shrouds
Baby arms sits across
Spies the water bottle
Asks for a swig
Offered her the same
She drank every drop of it
Gestured if she ate
She said no

Asked why she dint
She begs she said
Husband operation bedridden
Told her to take a seat in front
She did reeking of sweat unwashed clothes
Queried what her plans for kid
She had none
Where she stayed
She didn’t know
Kid never made a sound
Could be drugged
Scrutinised some more
Offerd her a big note
She thanked and then
asked where I stay
Right here I said

Dreamt of reaching there
Went to a mall type lounge
Partying and danced
Made a black friend
Realized had to go
Then went through the back door of a veg restaurant
Went down to stamp visa
Realized forgot passport
Can see trains over head
Went into city thinking how to get back into and out since not stamped
Met a lady who won lottery
Walking with her to her claim point
Went to beach house in natives with her and a girl
Showing around in rik
Sea turns blue and green
Rickshaw tried to escape
Huge wave size of tall building engulfs it
Deep breath and starts to swim upwards not struggling

Summer heat / breeze gathers dark clouds above / tiny drop of rain

Watching, serene, calm
poised attentive frog🐸 sparkling water gush💦

July 2014 to Dec 2014

brothers in arms
fueled by land and missiles
blood spurts through warm sand

2.
Sand shines glassy bright
Perimeter of the war
sings booms and hisses

3.
Torment of the skies
Sunlight bathes in Sadness
parched green happiness

4.
Lonely lighthouse
Out there to help one and all
Forever awake

5.
Memories sneak out
Roll down cheeks from both eyes
Many suns go by

We find very less aspirants these days as the moral fabric have torn and formed deeper gashes.
There are many relationships they value more than the one godly one. Cant blame technology to be one but earlier science was banned by religion.
Those willing to be martyrs are many and them willing to knock pearly gates , few.

6. every breathe without love
heavily laden sadness
fall season arrives

7. Depression sleeps
Spontaneity wakes up
Foraging for food

8. Human marvel
Multiplying tiny cells
Full blown war

9. A useless bottle
perfectly imperfect
coke splash onto rum

10 Inhale
Be in the now zazen
Exhale

11. Close your eyes
Here lies eternity
Morning comes soon

12. Beauty begets looks
Ugly moves unhindered
beauty without brains is ugly
Ugly with brains is beautiful
Symmetry of beauty is artificial

13. Emotions
Defying gravity
Invoking feelings
#myku

14. rained out sunday
made friends with two pomfrets
along with lunch

15. Nice rain
Feel like having a peg
On the beach

16. Stars are aligning
Confrontation of sorts
human emotions
#iPhone6 Myku

17. Oh delicious fish, caught unwittingly in a fisherman’s net
Oh lil egg, taken slyly from underneath your mothers warm nest
To lie waiting in the cold refrigerator and then hot oven and batter
Sheared, smeared, tasted, bruised and layered on bread and butter

You fruits and berries plucked from trees and stems
Leaves along with roots uprooted among gems
glorious colours of cocoa, vanilla, coffee and tea clovers
Dried and burnt to get aromas and flavors

Oh butchers knife that kills and cuts meat out of live birds and animals
Those shepherds shearing the warmth away to warm themselves
Machines that crawl the land and the sea screeching and uprooting
The fabric of life as it existed once upon a time is creaking

Everything done for the pleasures of a human appetite and senses
Trees uprooted to build homes, rivers dammed, oil burnt unscrupulously for those purposes
In the name of progress, funds will leave no stone unturned
Even get god particle in front to flirt with science of evil unperturbed

This is the good, pious living off the earth in perfect harmony with the sad bad generous with no reality check

18. You got that partly right. Let me shed some light into the alien theory. There are many references to aliens in ancient texts drawings and architecture. But none refers to people coming in warships. Those are hollywoood theories . ancient travellers crossed to continents but no such references exist except that of Europeans who travelled. There does exists stories from ancient texts of flying chariots, horses, birds on which humans who were godlike travelled bringing with them wealth and gold and powers to heal and weapons of mass destruction to wage wars.
Even thou the encounters and mutual cooperation are established and the trade mainly in gold and exchange of knowledge does exist and are documented, there is no evidence of travel to stars or constellations.
There is the reference to appearing and disappearing act.
Here we got to thing in terms of other dimensions and parallel universe or solar system or niburu. Since these contacts have taken place at various intervals, there need to be a timeline of these worlds approaching with lifeforms. The remnants of which we seee as encounters.
As for intelligent human creation. There has to be outside intervention to bring about such drastic change in physiology and characteristics to serve a certain purpose, most probably as a work force commanded to complete tasks.

18
Contemplating
cacophony of thoughts
Silences noise

Liquid slices through
Dribbling without effort
stone in its path

19.

The sound of one hand clapping on the right or left cheek , heard in the right or the left ear, reverberates through the body convulsing in spasms ensuring existence is void from that moment on and silence follows

Haiku in USA – mar to July 2014

Sun shines softly
moving through greying clouds..
Pine leaves aim high.

Chem trails crisscross

The blue morning sky

Question existence

3
Place of worship
Prayers transmitted
Petal falls; Hope

4
You look for a sign
Squirrel scampered down one branch
And up another

5
Eagle on a branch
Too lazy to fly in fog
Or the wise one

6
Raindrops on the glass
Shaded in the millions
Embossed on the paint

7.
Plenty emotions
At the marathon
Joy and glee

8.
Beauty sells quick
products expire quicker
Seasons make years

9.
The tree in between
Drops of rain on its branches
Two dimensional

20.
Harsh weather changes
Flaking skin of winter
Coats armour of god

21.
Hardship in their eyes_
Gentle beings of New York_
sweetness in your smiles

22.
Nice drive by the woods
Wooden cross and church by the road
Vulture eats deer

23.
Clouds unknown blots,
Veins of life crisscross_
white blob in the sky

24.
Sadness in your face
At the lab testing blood
Winter chill in spring

25.
Pretty bird swoops down
Fresh moved grass with dog poop
Shits and flies away

Makes noise in bush
Swoops down again and waits
Looks, poops, flies away

26.
Warmth of the sun
Sprinkler sprays water, chill breeze
Birds sing sweet notes

27.
Watch the grass grow
When the sun shines, mow it
Water it again

28
In waves they come
Needles blowing in the wind
Cold rain between pines

29.
Desires of passion
Searching in your luscious eyes..
Intense emotions

30.
Gently she blows
Mischievous sparkle in eye
With a shining glow

31.
As the sun blooms
gloom in clouds gray brighten
Thunder and lightning

32.
Branches change color
From grey to red black and blue
Flurry of feathers

cold wafts over their body

Fresh morning air
Warm sun darts through cold_
Smoke from an incense

In the journey of life_
who comes ; who goes

Are gods to blame ?
for these unfortunate _
or choices they made

awaiting the sun,
dark blotches of clouds-

white fluffy clouds

mystified thoughts
the broom is the man
rustling leaves protest

water laden fog
stops amazing speeds of light
clouding judgment

human swarms concrete,
by rumbling roaring traffic
lush green trees survive

sun fades; come darkness
eerie silence bides time
stray dogs keep watch

Asleep we dream
Awake we plan ; contemplate_
Rest after dreams

through fluid medium,
blind as a bat we exist.

Haiku- sep -Dec 2013

Rain make lot of noise
Listen to the silence in between
sound of single drop

If you want to go
Have to separate you from the heart
image fades from eyes

Stole expensive whiskey
Running from cops and gadgets
Dream and throbbing head

Waves on river bob.
Many moons show on crests
Cricket and frog sing duet

Millions admire my beauty
Some try to understand the meaning
Intelligent Hala

(Hala – fruit from Hawai, looks like earths core)

Greed of the first sip
Blowing steam away to cool
Piping hot coffee

billions of stories_
Woven into fabric of time_
As night turn to day

Sweet as a dimple
Kiss on a cheek from bridegroom
Blushing, happy bride

Pulling threads of rope
Channels the wind directly into fire.
Bladesmith hammers away

Coconut tree sways
Dancing careless over water
Evening sun looks on

Sparkling drops of light
look at you through the window
Fall to the ground

Journey to see girls
Wife to be, fully dressed up
Worse than blind date

Smiley on jeans;
Lady comments in spanish
pointing at it

Basketball players
Oblivious of watchers
new york city day

Durability
Nothing last forever
Diamond do

Serene azure blue sky
No trees moved or birds flew
waves turned around

wolf howled under leaves
spit out pretty feathers of meal
I consume myself

Le loup criait sous les feuilles
En crachant les belles plumes
De son repas de volailles : Comme lui je me consume.
-From Rimbaud

Earth rolls around
Sun rays darts through windowpane,
Brighten unseen dust

big bang theory.
in the beginning, there was light ..
then you came along

fueled by ambition,
he toils day and night in vain_
non action is also action.

People talking near toilet
woman sitting on ground nearby
while birds search for food

realized it now
folly of existence
rain falls on lotus fields

no aspirations
what does one deserve
nothing at all

sun beams down warmth
darting through thick clouds
cuts through chill morning

Wet green rice fields
Mountains of coconut trees
Bird on mossy creek

lilies bloom wild
water logged crop fields
feasting buffaloes

clouds shade skies gray
carpets of green fields green by mountain
valley below

In love we seek
a good example of friendship
friend loots lovers house
(acha sila diya thune mere pyar da, yaar ne hi loot lya ghar yar da)

Worm writing haiku
Cytoplasmic ectoplasm
Crawling through voids

Tiring afternoon
Woke up with start, sensing
climax attained

old woman weaving
cotton in one hand, wicks the other
to be burnt to ashes

unperturbed by noise,
chanting hymns from long ago –
unwavering faith

stopped at place of first kiss
listening to ‘Jesus to a child’
the lake still exist

vortex of sunlight
reflect on coconut leaves
dark clouds surrounds

confused ego realises
decisions that brought defeat
crystal clear tears roll

realization
samadhi is suicide
nirvana ; moksha

wishing friendship day
to friends near and dear
strangers in paradise

I don’t deserve it
no angelic rewards
sin; desperation

old women ; drenched pavement
squatting with umbrella; seeking alms
answers a call… “hello”

bank clerk ignores me
over Uk return
10 lakh transacted

deep affection of long,
forgotten; laid to rest.
a feeble cold touch.

planes flying
swooping, searching for heading
my clock ticking

we have two lives
one before and one after marriage_
rum speaks great language.

Happy nag panchmi
I have one swig of rum
lizard tail dancing

Oh! Indian
eat biriyani, Wish faster
give milk to poor snakes

Oh indian
5 army killed, murderers roam free
Festival celebrations

dreams of childhood
beauty of centuries
drowned by rum bottle

you like me ; I like
you dont like ; I like that too
silent bomb explodes

For all the good done
do You know where this goes
Nothing has transpired

tears streak down dark walls
is this the right thing to do?
old age home windows

cries of a peacock
bringeth tears over green grass
yearning and longing

farewell my friend,
yonder lies your destiny.
skies shed goodbye tears …

girls on one side
majestic tree on other
focus wavers

icecream in the rain
to my haiku pundits
silence beckons thee

throwing music
pleasant saxophone with keyboard.
comforting thoughts
(ghost box by black box )

I am no poet
I write no haiku
rum speaks

life without love
searching for happiness_
walking in the rain

light from sky reflect
brackish swollen river
boatman row slowly

my work is no art
correct me if I am wrong
f*kd up so far..

glory be to thee,
thou shall not restrict my thoughts..
we are made of stars

Walking to mobike;
friend stops while talking ‘
baby snake slithers by

human intellect_
illogical _
young life taken away

Sun tries to attack..
Constant defensive showers..
Puddle reflections.

liver so used to;
alcohol deprivation_
smoke from a joint

words, connotations..
I love you haiku people..
you complete me

essence of haiku,
is in imagination..
dragon pigeon flies

Destiny takes on,
Unknown forces overwhelm;
My life is not mine

search is over,
world conspires to make it happen,
love child, grow up fast

Moon drowns daily..
like Sun into labyrinths_
seeking nothing.

throw the moon a rock,
cool light shines through softly,
passing clouds keep watch

Girls talking to me
Topics bizarre, vague and wild
Confusion all around

flat black mountain top,
peacock in search of a mate_
soulful cries echoes.

atop the mountain
amidst the thick forest green_
young bird on a branch

the inner self seeks..
peace, tranquility, knowledge.
when will losses recover?

boy proposes
girl says nothing at all_
tasty dorito

walking barefoot
dew drops mingle with rain..
hairy black wooly worm

lone boy in red tee
lost in thought; watching keenly_
puddle of intrigue

Work overloaded
Nervous breakdown inevitable
Eternity

beatles tshirt,
worn to impress the daylights:
depressing day

well ironed suit,
rented for the occasion_
a walk down the aisle

stinging the face
the roar of motor bike
grey clouds drizzle

they say paperless,
then ask to submit prints..
crack and thud, tree falls

basking in the moonlight
slender arms reach upward
searching for answers

lil child on a tree
swaying in the breeze peacefully
long-dead, hidden within.

placed order for food
scrolling face on mobile
talking to pillar
