"On recent incidents of violence that pained me deeply to pen down verse .... "
WHY? WHY? WHY? Is there any joy one begets?
Whilst giving pain to another one forgets.
The same could back and rebound.
Leaving one fallen on the ground...

Its so much easy just to live, let live.
Moving, Seeking, Creating paths and give.
Striding, Moving onto the journey of life.
Paving ways, walking onwards without strife.

Let me be.

"Let me be the thread that binds, yet sets you free ...  Let me be the sacred thread tied onto the rosary beads deep in prayers.... let me be the thread that simply connects those very beads.... let me be the thread threading new life, new seeds .....

Seeking Answers (poem)

"Seeking Answers to Life's questions profound.

While having been swept so many times around!

I will surely find my wings to fly.

And soar up high onto the rising sky..."   

What is my true purpose I often ask?

Whilst moving about from task to task.

Will the Universe answer my prayers?

Giving me signs and quiet answers.

I will meet the rainbow's end I know.

Making a mark with words penned in tow.

I will rise above and shine and be.

Raising dear ones too, to seek their true destiny...  "

Just now read and saw the shameless act of the mob mania attacking and molesting a young girl in Guwahati, Assam > Felt ashamed, aghast horrified, angered and anguished and absolutely like sh@@@@!!1. How Why did this happen? What about the girl - is she not someone's daughter, sister, cousin or aunt ?? Why are we as a society harbouring this 'chalta hai - jaane bhi do attitude.!!  Awaken from the shackles of such apathy!!  The guilty must be punished as publicly as the naked act of ruining a soul was done - Is the Human Right of that girl not violated ??? What Double standards and Hypocrisy we are trapping our minds into!!!!           THINK. ACT AFTER THAT ..... What is the way out ??? Will any amount of punishment repair the damage done?? Why did it happen in the first place?? WHY ?? WHY ? wHY? 

"Raising my hands I ask for strength. To battle out the odds that meet on end. Praying for better days to come. With faith in God, I can overcome...." Copyright Madhavi Sood 2012 Published in 'From the Silence Within' Leadstart Publishers

"I will leap out of my problems, leaving them far behind.
I will rise above, fearlessly moving out of the tough grind.

Yet Light is Light and it always shines.
For it is Light and is meant to shine;
Breaking, piercing the dark and gloom.
Bringing flowers, green trees to bloom.
