So many names, faces, skin colours,
Different genders, different places,
Different climates, different seasons,
Different attires, different cultures,
Different delicacies, different views
And different languages,
Makes all of us unique and differentiated
From one another.
There are so many monuments,
So many wonders that attracts the tourists,
Different religions and their divinity
Shines in each place as there is no place
In the world where God is not present.
What makes the personality of a person
Hugely depends on his hometown;
The culture, the choices, the society,
From small small things to the big ones,
Many finds attachment for accent,
Many finds attachment for the way people are,
Many finds attachment for the literacy,
Many finds attachment for art.
Definitely everyone have endless words
To express the love for their hometown!
Hometown owes their heart and the
Peace when you sleep and rest in the air
Of hometown gives you a different
Pleasing moments.
But what if I say we all have one hometown?
It may be Earth for someone,
It may be solar system for someone,
It may be milky way galaxy for someone,
Or it may be universe for someone.
Well the way we all love different seasons,
The way we love our planet;
Shining like a gem,
The way we love our solar system;
Like precious rings traveling in the space
The way we love our galaxy;
Playing and dancing with other galaxies,
The way we love our universe;
Having magical firecrackers of
Nebulae, supernovas,
Many moons and stars shining bright,
Universe is home to our soul,
Universe is one place where we all
Live in the melodious verses,
One form we all have common is soul;
An energy which bonds
To the peaceful vibrations.
I'm lucky to live in the hometown:
Universe which blesses all the lives
With its muses,
Giving all an amusing journey.
Hometown- home to one.

If you ever wonder what its like to be from the ville? Then turn on your tv and watch the movie silent hill. Because for us, life and the movie are exactly the same. You enter the ville sain but leave never able to possibly be the same. Drug addicts, derilicts and chaos. Did i happen to mention i partook in all the above? And i may be all those things but im also a loving brother, father and son. We are fighting a losing battle that i now question if that it could ever be won? Because the more i look around all i see is a bunch of dying suns. Literally and metaphorically, so when will it all end? Only if and when we decide to take control of our perception again.... -
HOME TOWN
A busy town
So many streets
Wherever you turn
someone greets.
Not much to see
but it still gives
you glee.
Picturesque.
So many petty
yet pretty shops
to drop by.
Goats and peacocks
in the fields.
The honking
trains can be heard.
In this town you are
a disenthralled bird!

A city made of concrete and bricks like any other. And yet the roads are paved with dreams, the smiles founded on acceptance, and the blanket of fog that rolls over tucks you in to let you know you are home, no matter where you come from. This city is San Francisco.

#hometownGolden fields shimmer under blankets
Of golden rays sweeping the evening sky
The blood of old leaves intermingles with
The autumn rains and midnight dew
Under a northern patch of the universe
I have explored with my eyes since youth
Rolling hills, all those soybeans and corn
Blushing maples, towering oaks, sycamores
Coyotes howling and deer panting
Shots fired, dad and grandpa come home
Bringing their catch of the day from hunting
I grew up helping them process it all
And still, I try to process it all,
All the days chasing Ohio national roads
As far as the East spans to the West
South Vienna memories stretching
Out to meet "A Great Place to Live" on route 40
Where I went to highschool 3 years ago
London parks, my deceased grandparents
On mom's side of our own maple tree
Autumn leaves Summerford and Springfield
In a trail of wistful aromas I still smell
Sitting in the back of my Aunt Ruth's Cadillac
Her dove coos, Judge Judy makes the verdict
The verdict is that I've cheated on her,
My Innocence, to whom I was once so loyal.
Religiously going to church 3 days a week,
Bible studies and prayer meetings, we'd sing,
Radio programs on at all hours of the waking
In the living room playing hymns before sleeping
Now, Ohio is getting cold as autumn departs
Dirty rain will give way to the purity of snow
And I'll remember sledding down the hill
First with my sisters, then my lover
and no more thereafter for I have grown up
She once lived in Harmony, but since has moved out.
Autumn in Ohio.
Autumn in South Vienna.
Autumn in Springfield.
Autumn in Summerford.
Autumn, in London.
Autumn in general.
Only in autumn
have I experienced love,
Only so in Ohio
have I likewise tasted love.
Winter is the Season of Giving,
Spring is New Beginnings,
Summer is Life and Living, and
Autumn holds those moments
we're missing most right now
And the folks
who will always remain there with us

Prayer for Homeland
O' merciful creator!
Oh, seamlessly kind God!
You can't be this cruel
to your creation; who are defenseless from your rage.
-
Indeed it is us who brought this wrath to ourselves,
But it is you who are our ultimate saviour,
-
It is you who can snatch away deadly clouds from sky,
It is you who can stop water from washing away our homes,
-
it is you who can calm down flood from damaging our homeland,
and it is you can calm down
flood of eyes, overflooded with pain of becoming homeless
-
it is you our heart calls
for redemption and relief.
-
it is you who can be kind
even to the sinners like us
-
for you are Al- Rehmaan and Al-Raheem

Hometown
Full of serenity,
With greenery all around.
Where mountains call your name loudly,
And you can hear birds repeating that sound.
Where you feel you're sitting in nature's lap,
Also denoted as 'devbhoomi'.
HIMACHAL, the land of Gods,
It is my hometown..
Queen of hills- SHIMLA

HOMETOWN
Beauty, hope and magic
Stays alive in my hometown
Eyes of the residents
Filled with love, belonging and purpose
A doorway to the heart
A town for the people
My hometown, Embu
The green country side
Rich in flowers and trees
Humming birds and Honey birds
The wind draws waters in the rivers
The sun shines our elegance by day
And moon dims by night
Giving a chance for the Orange streetlights
To vintage the busy town
A land of opportunities
My hometown, Embu

Hometown!
Feel the warmth of summer
And comfort of winter
Seek pleasure of flamboyant
Rose farms around
Take a chillpill in my hometown
So called 'LITTLE ENGLAND'
Let your heart be one of them

Baleshwar :- The Sand city
/Odisha/
Horizon creates the floor with pebbles
alongwith star fishes at low tide
in the northern Coastal city enshrouded
with the 4 beaches (bay of Bengal)and
the beach (Digha beach )also
on the Odisha -westbengal border.
Eastern beach/Chandipur of North Odisha
lying on the bed by holding the island
(Abdul Kalam island/Wheeler island)
for a new era of science..
Smiling Springs cuddle the wildlife sanctuary to evaporate the agony of the broken universe...
The place known for the first commerical
factory by English Rule in Odisha and many
historical places too .
On the top of the Nilagiri hill torrent of spring
showering whole year open the lord Shiva ( lord Panchalingeswara Bcoz of five shivlinga
enshrined inside.) Famous for our language
which is little bit similar with Bengoli ( West Bengal border city) and
Gajja too (a type of sweet).
Presence of lord Krishna know
as kheerachoragopinath ( milk stealer Krishna )and Emami Jagannath (looks like duplicate of Shrikhetra Puri ) makes my city special .....
//Love Baleshwar//

Amidst the Himalayas
Surrounded by greenery in all directions
With smell of Earth in air
Lies my hometown- "Sikkim"//
A North-eastern or Seven-sisters State
It's a place still unknown to many
A place of divine serenity
Where all religions -Hindu, Buddhist,Christians resides together
Home to different varieties of flora and fauna
It's a kingdom with many untold stories
Here with every Season
Comes a splendid view
And is truly an abode of Gods //
Here lives people who are so called "chinkey eyes"
Who are thought to be Chinese and so on
Yet those who don't know , we are a proud Indians
Who sings "Jana Gana Mana" as national anthem
And who fights in border for India //
With lofty snowy mountains
Rivers flowing by and chirping of birds to be heard everywhere
Here lives people who are worshippers of nature //
From famous monasteries,temples to diverse biodiversity;Gangtok, tsomgo lake to Ladakh;dazzling waterfalls to virgin forest
There are infinite reason for it's beauty to be admired
And there lies a desire in every Sikkimese heart to be born in this serene abode in every life...Hometown

Driving through the dusty roads,
Striding past the gushing river,
Rain drops filling the puddles on streets,
Falling leaves from shaggy trees.
Once I fall for its serene beauty,
The noise in me starts to calm down,
People start to fade away in broad day-light,
Its only you and me creating this heavenly sight
You're my home, I'm your pride

Hometown Visit
My last visit home was sad, but true
All weekend I waited, just to see you
But the expectations I held were much too high
Lowest place on the totem pole, there was I
When finally, we met after a lot of time wasted
It felt like my presence was nothing but hasted
My words, though genuine, read much like a song
Of love, loss, sorrow, and timing gone wrong
Your response to my letter, still I await
Forward motion requires a slow, but steady pace
The absence of you in my day, at times it's still hard
It's easier for you, but you had a head start
Luckily, this visit home was different in nature
A reason to celebrate, made time pass much easier
Still, reminders were there, and felt in my midst
Sending a text to say hello, was hard to resist
So as this week passes, and a new one begins
Seven more days to wonder if or where, I fit in
But the longer I wait, the more healing I do
What matters most in the end, is I get over you

A Slice of Eden
She carried within
her butterfly mesh memories
a slice of Eden,
transiently experienced
in a tinsel adorned childhood
still aglow in sepia reminiscences
It was her secret
those tied up scrolls of reverie,
her fingertips reading them like braille
and in haunting despair they
were like fireflies twinkling as stars
plucked from blackberry skies,
those trees of cobra saffron
leaves tinted in candyfloss,
dawn streaked on their foliage,
chirpy sparrows, clouds weeping tempests
and rainbow guilded skies,
carpets of dewy tea leaves sighing
epistles aromatic with caffeine,
rejuvenating a dejected mind. -

Pride
Have some god damned pride in where you come from
All places of the world have their wrongs
If we spoke about the good bits, maybe people would come
Have some god damned pride in where you come from.
Stop talking shit about your town
Don’t you know that you are bringing it down?
The power of a few positive words would astound
Quit talking shit about your town.
And maybe if we were united
Against this Scunthorpe problem
Then we could fight it.
And possibly the message would get through
That this steel town and its people
Are rich in value
So don’t hang about, don’t leave it too long
Have some god damned pride in where you come from.
