Doubt
As I walk through the valley of doubt.
I look up and wonder if all was for naught.
Rather I am quite distraught.
That even in victory I see a shadow.

Memory Lane- Things That Kill?
Memory Lane is a wild valley,
with shaky fissures below the ground
and dangerous hidden trenches on every side.
I traverse with only
myself and my notebooks,
no armor against the elements,
and no protection agaisnt
the frequent avalanches that pummel me,
sharp rocks that fall
from the cliffs high above.
It is a lane I dare not venture
too far down- but I know
I cannot reach the future
or the key to any closure if I do not go.
To leave or not to leave
has been the question burning in me.
What if memories are things that kill?

Metamorphosis
When you feel like you're no longer situated
at the top of the mountain
When you feel like you're stuck in a valley
And problems keep on piling up
And things are getting ugly
Let me tell you, you have to undergo this phase
This boulder is necessary
And you're going to overcome this
Because you need this trial for your triumph
You need this test for your testimony
You need this mess to deliver your message
You need this to come out stronger, bolder,
And tougher than ever before.
You just need to trust the process.
This is your metamorphosis.

I carried back to my town,
Little memories of the sea..
For it gives me joy of walking alone.
I dumped in the valleys,
few moments from the past..
For it gives me courage to live free.
I absorbed in the skin,
The essence of those woods..
For it fortifies the beauty of my righteousness.
When life seems upside down,
I gather the humbleness & courage
From all those corners..
of the world I had explored :)

Misty Valley
Look there and you shall ever find
A mist arising from the ravine behind
A deep gorge where cascades a waterfall
Where rainbows dance on the rocky wall.
A river which converges in the gully
Across the canyon in the deep valley
And echo of gurgling water in the hill
Cry of the kingfisher loud and shrill.
Cotton clouds sail through the blue sky
And the droplet of water fall as they sigh
Edge of the mountains, still and steep
And your head turns around, as you peep.
A whistle of the train as it enters the tunnel
Darkness emerges as it rings its bell
At the end of the cave is the white light
Which shimmers in the haze of bright daylight
Showers of cool water that dampens my brow
Foamy drops falling, that is just a wow
Cool zephyr that blows across the arched alley
And mingles with the honeyed drops in the valley.
I stand mesmerised at the edge of the hill
At the whirling sound of the blades of the wind mill
I stare above at the sailing and floating clouds
Captivating me as the misty hill shrouds .
The maid in the mist that arises from the fall
The piercing sounds with which the fountain calls
Amazes me with the spellbinding stream
Arousing me from my bewitching dream.

As he can see,
Her heart is a grave of thousand flowers
And her mind is a valley
Where he can find the falling stars
But her soul, his home

This poem is written on a prompt by @carolyns_challenges.
Thank you so much for the repost @writersnetwork !!
It was inspired by a line by Roger Waters, "You shout and no one seems to hear."
This line reminded me of the Draft Environmental Impact Assessment which was proposed in March 2020. It dilutes the voices of the people who may get adversely affected by developmental projects by scrapping public hearings.
An Environmental Impact Assessment ( EIA ) is basically a process of evaluating environmental impacts of a proposed project. Under the Draft EIA 2020, if there is local resistance to polluting industries, their voices will not matter. The impacts such industries can have one the people are:
1. Nearby water bodies get polluted and people will lose access to clean drinking water
2. If the soil is polluted, the crops farmers sow won't grow.
3. Some pollutants can seriously affect the human health in the area, etc
Anyone who is concerned about this, you can go to the link in my bio to check out all the tools/resources which will help you understand this issue better and act on it.

@mann_se_ @soulfulstirrings @mithoo @day_dreamzYou shout and no one seems to hear
All the words lost in this frightening storm
Does it all even matter?
All the things that I have lost
Does it even matter?
When all I see are forests razed,
Gas leaks galore, the mangles bodies of innocents
sprawled on blood-red fields.
And everybody says- these things happen,
move on! But
you're shouting and no one seems to hear
my voice matters (the words ringing in your ear)
It ruins forests, it ruins lives,
All those gems lost in the storm which moves nearer, nearer
it's here now.
You shout and no one seems to hear
my voice matters (the words ringing in your ear)

Dear Friends, this is a very important message for us to act on. Please object to the Environmental Impact Assesment (EIA) Darft 2020 by mailing the Environment Ministry. (Link in my bio)
Environmental Impact Assessment ( EIA ) is a process of evaluating environmental impacts of a proposed project taking into account inter-related socio-economic, cultural and human-health impacts. Draft EIA 2020 by Government of India proposes to legitimize actions currently listed as violations, dilutes rules by expanding list of projects exempted from public consultation & does not prescribe a robust post environment clearance monitoring system. Besides giving a lot of discretionary powers to govt authorities, Draft EIA 2020 is heavily loaded in favour of industries allowing polluting industries to pollute more and causing immense harm to nature. Under the new draft EIA, industries set to benefit from no public consulting are chemical fertilizers, pesticides, petroleum product plants & many more. If there is local resistance to these polluting industries, their voices will not matter. Removing public consultation spells disaster as it is a must for any environment clearance process.
The government has called for objections. Please share this petition link widely urging people in your networks to sign. All our local environment and forest battles will fall flat if the EIA is manipulated. We all have to work together to stop this Draft from becoming a Notification.
So please, PLEASE go to the link in my bio and click on it and send a mail to the Environment Ministry and share this as much as possible.

-- Lily of the Valley --
She went through all the harsh realities
Dolorously walking with wavered sanguinity
The only thing that ameliorates her pain
Are the melancholic tears that she used to retain
But she decided her fate as she continued to walk
She would not be treating this as selfish talk
As she convinced herself to aim for strength
That will guide her in passing through all lengths
In all seriousness, she'd be willing to face hell
As sonorously as she would, even at every cell
As she enters through the valleys of fierceness
As the innocent lily, she'll still enter with all hopefulness

My Vale
Farther in the core of a vale,
Hidden from the eye of man,
Grief on grief around her heart,
Broken just like a clay pot.

The valley
The dreams blossomed in the valley of hope
The golden rays chanted a morning verse
The valley shone in colours changing to shapes
The majestic mountains smiled in unison
The rivers meandering it's path
Bringing in sustenance with care
The valley once again woke up
Shedding the veil of monotony

After 7/8 months, I am writing on this platform. Again pour your love and feel free to correct me.
#everyday #sky #blue #smile #walk #achieve #achievement #ocean #generation #tear #negativity #flower #heart #blossom #mindset #valley #hope #inspirationI have been strolling for miles everyday,
I have crossed the blue sky and walked towards the grey one,
I have crossed the multifarious pedestrians,
I have crossed the narrow mindsets,
I have crossed the pavement of generation,
I have crossed the smiles and witnessed tears,
I have crossed the valley of hope,
I have crossed the ocean of negativity,
The feet seems to be warn out but the heart blossomed like a flower.
"No matter how many miles you walk, what matters is what you achieve after walking for miles."

Shining sky, looked like it shines for me,
Chirping birds, so unaltered so free,
Remembering the sound of sequestered valley,
Making a new definition of serendipity.
You only live once and I lost what I lived for,
When I saw such a beautiful sight to allure,
I made a fault by tightening worldly ties I adore,
Slowly, it took my soul and left me fulfilled to my core.
Running constantly for our lives day and night,
Trying to make the future bright,
I forgot to see where is the light,
But it found me disturbed, and gave me a might,
To finish distances, to fight,
Not for our future, but our right,
Right of coming back, and seeing this beautiful sight,
All day, all night.......
All day, all night....... -

Sometimes I like to cry
Deep at night
When all souls sleep,the dogs call their companions
With a woof quite deep,
When the monsoon clouds kisses the sky
And slow falls the rain,
When the eyes shut
To conceal all the hidden pain,
When the first train of the morning
Returns from station unknown,
When the songs from an untold land
Seems so known,
When the mindless servant retrieves
All the letter unburnt,
When the mind knocks at the valley of nostalgia
And paints her blurry face in front,
I like to cry

It is nature that creates the universe, it is from nature that one takes form
So in the true sense, with nature is where truly the heart is at home

@writersnetworkChild of the universe
She lets those rays of sunlight awaken her soul,
And yet,
She holds the brush in the painting of the night
She dances with her arms around the wind,
And yet,
She sings along to the music of the rustling leaves
She flies and kisses the skies of the world,
And yet,
Her feet and the ground are terrible flirts
She meets and babbles away with the highest of peaks,
And yet,
She picks flowers from the dark abyss she sees as a valley
Her voice echoes with the roaring waves of the sea,
And yet,
She indulges in the tranquil of the coherent creaking river
She glimmers with the silver shine of the stars,
And yet,
She is the colours of the rainbow all at once
She leaps zealously with the flame of the fervent fire,
And yet,
She embodies the graceful poise of the resolute woods
She is life and death and everything in between,
She is the boundless child of the infinite universe.

And now we leave
Even the skies called our time
The physical removal from this place
Now all that is left, is to see
If this will also remove the memories
And the emotions
Of this cursed valley
That I once belovedly called home

" WONDERING! "
I've been dreaming about you
From dusk till dawn
Wondering,
What it's like to be next you
That's All I ever wanted
I hope you want the same
Watching you from a distance
Seemed so picture perfect,
Until you noticed me.
wondering,
Who is this soul?
What does this mean?
Looking at me in a way,
That nobody else did
tell me!,
what's inside your head?
I don't even know the real you
But I'm dying to know
Why are you doing this?
Making me think about you
All night long and every day.
The look on your face
made me wonder
Is this love or just an attraction
Wondering,
How it sounds
When you call my name,
Sitting on the stairs
Watching you pass by,
Noticing everything about you
Your cute curly hair
Your sparkly eyes
Your cheerful laughter
Makes me smile harder
every time!
Saw you walking down the stairs
On an autumn afternoon,
Wondering,
If this is making me fall for you
But then again,
Your smiling at your phone and
I wonder if this smile is for another
person in your mind other than me.
Wondering,
How you ride off to nature
every weekend to the hilly valley,
Laying down on the ground
gently kissing the chilly breeze,
Dreaming about the white clouds
on a clear blue sky,
Never knew you had a sensitive
side towards nature like i do.
Wondering,
If we'll ever glance at each other
ever again,
And we did but this time
My nervousness took the better of me,
Cause when your next to me
you make my heart beat go faster
and slower without my knowledge.
Wondering,
How crazy was i to think
that we could connect effortlessly,
With every countless thoughts
of what could have happened right,
Our magnetic fields had opposite
directions,
We might just getaway with this but
honey this road can't be lead by
our blind faith.
