Repairs of a broken heart

I haven’t seen my heart
I but I feel the beats
Sometimes slow, sometimes fast
At times I don’t know..
it’s there
It does show.

I haven’t seen my heart
I haven’t seen its wounds
 but it was bruised
It pumps the blood in the body-
arteries and veins
carry the blood
said my science book.

When I read love poems
Or heard love songs
I found mention of heart ache
 and heart break.

Its heart -
In affection it rejoices
rejection does otherwise.
I haven’t seen my heart
I haven’t seen the scars.


For years it did not react
To hate or love alike
It was closed and
Tenderness died.

With passing time
ice shafts of ‘coldness’
have started melting
no, bells are not ringing
neither violins playing
But it’s feeling,
I am alive again.

Why history lessons were boring in schools?

We were not taught (told) history as it was. History lessons dealt with dates and events only, history was always about kings,wars,victories and so called larger than life things. We were just told who ruled us,for how long.We never came to know about common man's life,may be it was not worth writing or documenting(it is still not worth it,only politicians make news). History books never had chapters of North East India and its contrib ution to Indian freedom struggle.Conflict regions' making and history was never made available rather they were just called resource abundant regions. Rise of right wing (radicalisation)doesn't find mention either. History books have been agents of lies and deception. History writing is often used as tool by state to deceive it's citizens,so that the truth and facts never come out. Whether it's America,India or Pakistan,their school history lessons are self congratulatory. Currently state is busy in bringing 'In...

Nightingale got no prize at the poultry show

Einstien,Twain,Edison were born out of class, before the text proceeds , I would like to say here 'class' doesn’t mean the structure with four walls, one door, two windows, one teacher, books and the pack of chained students. Here class is the niche of brilliance, freedom, discovery, imagination and invention. I wish to have education system that forges humans with brain and not machines with grades. As a student .I always wondered, how one can go about saying two plus two equals to four? Without anyone questioning why? Just because our course book said so. Why in history "dates and events” were asked? When no one taught us the resemblance to the days which we live in. Why for learning anything new, we need old books instead of new ideas? Why make notes in class, when the brain is blank and ink in copy left no hammer on thinking? Why teachers ask us to learn by heart, while it is the mind that is required to do so.? Even Winston Churchill had a dig at his tea...

CELEBRATING LOVE ...BEYOND FEBRUARY 14th

Today in the morning my cucu alarm got late and i was woken by another one.braying sound near my vicinity .by the time sunshine reached its best,the quarrel got worst. Young couple were fighting because it was February 14th and none of them got each other gifts. Such a megalomaniac generation,just because it is February 14th ,you need gifts,you need love? seeing them i went down the memory lane and recollected my love moments 60 years ago.I don't know whether in that age saint valentine had his clout or not! Late Mr Mathur,my husband and i seemed to have valentine day,every time we were together. Every time i served him tea and newspaper it was a valentine moment, Every time he helped me in my household chores it was a valentine moment. May be life then was not that busy.Gadgets and gizmos didn't occupy much of our time.space.mind. Once i asked Mr Mathur "even when i am 60, would you still love me"? "Mrs Mathur " he said "No ,god sent me he...
