Down the memory lane…
It’s another solo walk on the beach,
the mind is all set to rewind;
the dead present sees another breach,
it’s time to be spellbind;
A bunch of few racy teens,
once used to tread this sand;
now only my footsteps are seen,
alone here I stand;
Pockets were scoured but the bucks came hard,
yet just a bite felt like a feast;
now each has a debit card,
but the taste now is at it’s least;
Riding by the day,riding by the night,
beaches,boulevards and the hills;
chums were never out of sight,
now a shrilling silence kills;
Adorable still is the first love,
though started and ended in blunder;
a pal gave me back-up,
when I approached her in a thunder;
Stupid acts seemed ventures,
silly were the concepts of manhood;
dumb anatomy and conspicuous gestures,
breaking all the laws we could.
Buzz of the era was soft porn,
a mighty flag that mobilized punks;
sharing intelligence was sworn,
those sessions never saw any bunks;
Ingenuous plans and a dewy-eyed dream,
no touch of idiotic edification;
today but is a different realm,
wishes don’t see realization;
While raking up what I badly miss,
these lines made out there way;
lost are those years of bliss,
in the mist of yesterday…
Wow… Wow…. Wow ….Amazing….matchless …. original !!!!!!!!!Super !!!!!!

Would like to hear from you on the state of affairs in the country. Why don't you express your opinions on that? I am waiting.

@KishoreSorry mate for the reply after ages.Actually,I have a blog dedicated to the country affairs.But I haven't shared that link,YET,because :1. Country affairs is where one must be unbiased,rational and devoid of impulsive emotions – I have achieved the first two but not the last.2. Writing about country affairs is a challenging task – it needs hell lot of reading,careful pruning,transforming data into information and a CONTINUOUS touch with affairs.This is something for which I don't have adequate strength and motivation.3. I take writing about countries,cultures,History,Science etc. as a SACRED task – something one should do more seriously than praying for one's own good. But this approach of scrupulousness proves a hindrance to writing as it takes a toll on the self-confidence.I again appreciate your encouragement to write about the country – I assure you that once I am convinced that my writing is even 10% good,I will make it public !
