A Smile that transforms your life .....

Presenting the real beauty of Woman along with a poem which is a small comparison between the old age woman and the new age women.This was born as a result of a conversation we had along with a friend about the woman today.

Husbands :  Can a wife be capable enough to be compared with our Mom ?
Wives : We are more than that .We can transform between the two , being both modern as well as traditional.

Along with this comparison ,I tried to bring in the real beauty of a Women which is "HER SMILE

Good Old Days
a dissipated image
of his Mom appears on his mind ...

She gets up in the Morning,
cleans the house ,
waters the verandah
and decorates the doorsteps with kolams

Then she freshens herself ,
dresses beautifully in a saree
comes to her room to wake
her husband ,sound asleep

with a massage on his feet
slowly waking him up
and then handling him 
a hot tea or coffee 

she waits till he drinks it
and then takes it back to the kitchen
again ,she enters with a towel and bursh
for him and says,
"you water is ready in the bathroom"

He comes near her and lands a kiss on her forehead.

He woke up staring now at 
his newly wed married wife
educated from aboard
as she kisses his forehead
waking him up

Good Morning dear
Your coffee is ready
She looked fully dressed with make-up

She smiled at him
That smile made his day 
A Women's Smile !
Contagious Gift worth receiving 

He hardly heard what she said,
"And yes,forgot to tell you
I have an important meeting today
Your breakfast is ready
Freshen up and lets meet at noon"

She went.....

He sat on his bed 
and with a remote ,
switched on the music in his room
and slowly took the coffee
made from a coffee maker
sipped in the aroma as he drank it
it's the new three in one NescafĂ©

He thinks,
"everything is
presented with the changes
that is required with
the fast moving world for good
Why not let his wife be one among them ?"

The Real beauty of Woman is "HER SMILE".A simple curve on her face does the Magic . It's a powerful potion of Love . It comes naturally when we like someone .It does the magic of transforming your surroundings with happiness.A Women who spends most of her time with children and relations needs the importance to have this smile as a part of her life .A smile is worth sharing and passing to the known and also the unknown.


Mother Teresa :Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.


A smile is contagious ,it spreads from one person to another making or transforming their life into a bliss for a second .A women's smile spreads around her family making relationships healthy which in turn makes her happy .She wins hearts with her smile .Every art ,has a smile in it be it a photograph , poem or story .We love stories with happy endings .Everyone love to smile and even more see others smile .When a women smiles , her eyes in turn smiles lifting her face making it more attractive . 


A Smile is a contagious curve thats spirals around each and every soul making life appear beautiful .That is in fact the Real Beauty of any Women .She holds the magic wand in between her lips :) :) :)

This Week : VILLANELLE

The Villanelle is a challenging but fun form of poetry with a haunting repetitive pattern.Its name derives from the Italian villa, or country house, where noblemen went to refresh themselves, perhaps dally with the locals, and imagine that they were back to nature.Most poets prefer to use this form of poetry for more brooding images or memories that come back to haunt you, but you can choose what subject matter you want.

How to write a Villanelle:
  1. A poetic form to express a feeling or an idea.
  2. It has a total of 19 lines in the pattern of 3-3-3-3-3-4 i.e in five tercets and a concluding quatrain.
  3. Except the second line in each stanza ,all other lines Rhymes.
  4. Two lines the first and third in the  first stanza are repeated along the poems in the pattern of
                1st  stanza - A1-b-C1
                2nd stanza -a-b-A1
                3rd stanza -a-b-C1
                4th stanza-a-b-C1
                5th stanza-a-b-c1
                6th stanza-a-b-A1 -C1, 
    Where " a not repeated but rhymes, and b not repeated and does not   rhymes" and  " A1, C1 repeated and rhymes"

    Another Cinderella Story!
Oh! This morning dew, how I feel its need when I am alone here
Its closeness near my skin, trying to quench my thirst , I sigh!
How I yearn for that love I lost somewhere among the rolling years

 I am a sequel of The Cinderella, in my life like her I appear 
Spending my days with abuses, craving for a soft voice around me
Oh! This morning dew, how I feel its need when I am alone here

A lost pearl I am now, my feelings lay unprotected, I fear
Recalling the day when I lost my protective shell to someone else
How I yearn for that love I lost somewhere among the rolling years

Why my mom always sided with my step-sister made things unclear
Making the ache in my heart grow more, leaving my voices unheard
Oh! This morning dew, how I feel its need when I am alone here

I dream of you my Guardian angel, I wish you were there
To get me to home to a Prince who will wipe away all my tears
How I yearn for that love I lost somewhere among the rolling years

Like he found his true love through the lost glass slipper
Rescuing her from all the sorrows that had befallen her
How I yearn for that love I lost somewhere among the rolling years
Oh! This morning dew, how I feel your need when I am alone here
