Smells

Smells
old and new
the storage boxes
of remembrance

the old tickles our mind
and asks "do you remember me?
that old books on the library,
the aroma of the sand when drenched in rain,
scented flowers brushing your nose
and mama's recipe , my favorite dish"

The other end the new slowly hangs on to a place
carefully sealing itself under the neural jelly
adding and mingling with the old
to be recalled again as a whole

Author details

I find it easy to portray me as a Poet which I found out during my writing journey. Having a degree in Engineering, I found myself quite well in fixing pieces of words together and getting them published.

What is a poetry? If some one asks me this question, I have two answers with me.The former being "Poetry is an ART where we paint the pictures with our words" and the latter is "Poetry is my self-expression".  Here I mean self -expression because I try to relate (fantasize ) myself with the characters I write taking into account all aspects of life .

"Vande Mataram" -the Songs of the Indian Soul

"Vande Mataram"

this musical words

cuts chords of the string

covering the soft walled hearts

to let out that feeling

"to be Free..."

This land of Bharatam

stands now on its own feet

having its own breathe of

" Freed air "

Unforgettable legend

reminds each one of us

still alive on this mud 

the days of shed bloods

countless number of tears

and unanswered prayers

Stand now to

the words of our leaders

spread the light and

have the will

to celebrate this day

answering those 

shed bloods and tears

to live each passing day

in UNITY and LOVE

"Vande Mataram"

NATIONAL FLAG

Indian flag comprises of three colors saffron,white and green in equal proportions.On the middle is the wheel in navy blue color comprising of 24 spokes and this Emblem design is adapted from the Lion Capital of Ashoka at Sarnath on January 26, 1950.The ratio of the width of the flag to its length is 2:3 and the diameter of the chakra approximates to three-fourth of the width of the white band of the flag.Indian flag is also called as Trianga.

I could remember my school days, when our principal hosts the flag and we the students, singing the National Anthem song in chorus.She used to pull the flag high and slow and when spread ,showers the rose petals upon her head and the students nearby .It was such a unique look seeing the hosted flag flying pridely to the waves of the brushing breeze.

NATIONAL  EMBLEM

National Elements
National Tree : Banyan
National Flower : Lotus
National Fruit : Mango
National Animal : Tiger
National Game : Hockey
National Song : Vande Mataram
National Anthem : Jana Gana Mana
Natianl Emblem : The Lion Capital
National Calender : Saka Calender
National Flag : Tiranga

The National Emblem (as seen in the above picture) symbolizes India's commitment to world peace and goodwill. You can see four lions (three in front and the fourth one behind) .The lions symbolizes power, courage and confidence resting on a circular abacus which in turn is girded by four smaller animals named as  guardians of the four directions: the lion in the north, the elephant in the east, the horse in south and the bull in the west. The whole of the abacus rests on a lotus in full bloom meaning the fountain of life and creative inspiration. Below it is inscribed a word /motto 'Satyameva Jayate'  meaning "Truth Alone Triumphs".

Exploring Poetry : Free Verse

a clasp on both hands
tied tightly and
lifting me slowly
above the ground
a transparent wing grew
it grew larger and larger
as I fly higher and higher
swirling like a tornado
I started to shout
laughing hysterically
it was magical
How did I continuously laugh?
10 min
5 min

.
Hey! enough stop .
It's over
I got down
from the fun fair saucer ride

Happy Friendship Day!

Pleasure to have friends

who lights up your surroundings

'Disguised fireflies'

To have one friend who stands in front of you pointing your mistake saving a life time misery is much better  than to have many friends who never had time to guide you through
- ©Umamaheswari Anandane


Happy friendship Day to all my friends!!

Resemblance

Magpie Picture Prompt

A tinge of yellow

rotating at high speed

shines brighter

to a full yellow circle

throu' the effect of

spinning blades

recalls resemblance

a bright ball of fire

spinning around

marking the Sun by

gravitational mass

Black holes ,do they

exist in the above both

between  

the producer of wind

and 

the generator of heat

without which my earth 

challenges to exist ?

This is me :

 To bring out the sparkling light of creativeness in you , 

 you got to burn the oil of time and space -  ©Umamaheswari Anandane

   

D'verse Poets :

Redundant phrasing - Words, phrases, lines, stanzas, even, that are unnecessary according to me are :[ rotating ] at [high] [ speed], [The spinning] I repeated ,[by] gravitational [ mass] and between  [the producer of wind] and [the generator of heat]
