A Teenage Crush

A Teenage Crush
A Teenage Crush
Once the girl who lived across the road,

Went off for her usual stroll.

She passed by the green bushes,

Quite cheerful on the whole.


She skipped down the marble road,

Marked with broad white lines,

To her friend's place she was going

Perhaps something was on her mind.


But something was on his mind

As he watched her come close

She would pass by him, knew it well,

And then he'd give her a red rose.


Ah yes! For he had a crush on her

But didn't have courage at all

To confess his feelings like a man

Hiding behind a white gray wall.


But now, she was coming closer

And time was flying by

The moment of confession was here, at last,

And then he froze at her sight.


And there she was, her charming face,

Startled to see him there.

In front of her, him standing there,

To her, he had appeared out of nowhere.


But alas! He could not again

At all gather his nerves

He couldn't even say a thing

To her the one he loved.


And she stood there with an innocent look

She knew nothing of what he felt

To her he was just a neighbour 

And they had met by accident.


She gave him a smile, blinked her eyes

Then strolled off, leaving him alone

Then looked back, perhaps longingly

At him, the rose ....

.... And she was gone.

The natural disaster in Uttarakhand

The natural disaster in Uttarakhand "Disaster" had been merely a word for me in the pages of dictionary. On 15th June 2013, I was stunned and horrified with the news of the natural calamity that struck the ill fated state of Uttarakhand in North India. The recent natural calamity has shown us what actually a "Disaster" is. On that day there were cloud bursts in various areas of Uttarakhand. The torrential downpour in various parts of the hilly region washed down soil along with silt, sand, stone and boulders. The cloud burst caused enormous quantity of water to flow down the hilly slope and hilly springs joining the main river of the area, the Alakananda. As it is, even during normal time, hilly rivers flow at a high speed. Due to cloud bursts there are flash floods when enormous quantity of water tries to flow out in a short span of time. The speed of water flow increases to much more than the normal. The water level in the river gorge rises, carrying away silt, sa...

A True Friend

A True Friend A true friend is the one who stays beside us in both good and bad times. Ram and Sam are an example of such friends. They love each other, believe each other, and trust each other. They share food, joys and sorrows with each other. They are the perfect example of true friendship. They live in the same complex. Ram is very good in studies but not so good in sports and other activities.Whereas, Sam is not at all a good student but he is extraordinary in sports and other activities especially in social activities. But studies and games never became a barrier between them. Their families have a strong bond between them.Gradually Ram's father and Sam's father also became friends and similarly Ram's mother and Sam's mother became friends too.
