A tsunami first ebbs away
Before it crashes with force
On the shores.
In the deep seas though,
The creatures know not the force:
It's business as usual.
Love is a bit like the tsunami:
Ebbs away and then crashes
With full force.
The loved ones though,
Often have no disquiet
In their deeps,
No ripples in their hearts.
Friday gyan is always edifying. Thank God it's Friday. I received the following gyan today:
Where has Your gossamer touch gone?
Is Your love still unborn?
They now cry for Your gossamer touch,
Those that wanted your Midas touch.
Friends: Have you ever thought about the need of capital letters in the English language? Indian languages do not have such a concept. Do we really need capital letters in the English language?
Imagine if I had written the above lines as below:
friends: have you ever thought about the need of captial letters in the english language? indian languages do not have such a concept. do we really need capital letters in the english language?
Would you have any difficulty in understanding these lines? another way to say this is, 'would you have any difficulty in understanding these lines?'
i think not.
we are unnecessarily burdening ourselves with learning needless 26 letters.
in fact, i once had thought that the capital letters could be used thus:
FriendsHaveYouEverThoughtAboutTheNeedOfCapitalLettersInEnglish?
we separate each word with capital letters, resulting in massive saving of printing as well as digital space. in java language, name of functions are often written in a similar way. we could, of course, refine this way of writing by inserting punctuation marks and space after sentences.
WeCouldOfCourseRefineThisWayOfWritingByInsertingPunctuationMarksAndSpaceAfterSentences. WhatDoYouThink?
what do you think?
Dreams came looking for her,
But she still hadn't fallen asleep.
The dreams then implored:
We just need your forty winks.
And she then said to them:
Urmila's nights of fourteen years
Of peaceful sleep I need.
'Dear dreams', she said to them,
'I dream big, you see,
I dream of love, you see.'
When you are lonely,
When you are down,
Know that
I am here in town.
So many sorrows
Of so many hues,
It's not easy
To wear your shoes.
Keep your door open,
And I will come,
I'll bring cheere bhaajaa* too,
When life is a bit troublesome.
All days are Mothers' day.
*cheere bhaajaa: beaten rice pan fried in sugar
