Re Kabira 058 - That Shadow of Mine

 --o Re Kabira 058 o--


I was a hollow frame, with that shadow of mine

my mother instilled beliefs in my mind

a teacher walked along and left trust behind

and a family reminded me of pride that outshined


I was a friend, with that shadow of mine

someone robbed me of my beliefs

I carried on with that trust & pride of mine

another robbed me of my trust


I carried on with my pride that once outshined

Yesterday I've been robbed again and left me with no pride

and I'm carrying on with a hollow frame of mine

don't know how to get rid of that shadow of mine

it's always following me behind,

that shadow of mine

2022 was supposed to be the year to restore and rebuild but things didn't go as I thought should have been. Another tough year, most difficult on all fronts - personal, professional, health & financial.  The year 2022 took a toll on both mind and well-being. There were some "leave me alone" moments, trust me those were not good at all.  A lot of time I was left alone on my own, and those were even worse. People think that being alone or leaving someone alone helps, its a misconception - there is a differnce between positive-time alone and negative-time alone.  Cancer took a dear friend and batchmate away, and I was gutted as couldn't meet him. He wanted to be left alone and I could only plan to meet him. A couple of close ones have been diagnosed and are battling the evil disease. They won't be left alone. लड़ाई अपनी अपनी होती है, खुद को ही लड़ना होती है  उम्मीद की कोई और लड़ेगा, फ़िज़ूल खर्च लड़ाई होती है  Every one has to fight their own battles !!! It was roll-co

Re Kabira 055 - चिड़िया

--o Re Kabira 055 o-- चिड़िया इधर फुदकती उधर चहकती,डर जाती फिर उड़ जाती तिनके चुनती थिगड़े बुनती, झट से पेड़ों में छुप जाती सुबह होते शाम ढलते, मीठे गीत फिर सुनाने आ जाती दाना चुगने पानी पीने, वापस फिर मेरे आँगन में आ जाती कभी बारिश कभी तूफान, भाँपते जाने कहाँ गायब  हो  जाती  कभी चील कभी कौये, देख क्यों तुम घबड़ा सी जाती  बच्चे ढूंढे आँखें खोजें, जिस दिन तुम कहीं और चली जाती  दाना चुगने पानी पीने, वापस फिर मेरे आँगन में आ जाती गेहूँ खाती टिड्डे खाती, बागीचे  के  किसी कोने में घर बनाती  तुम लाती चिड़ा लाता, बारी- बारी  तुम चूजों को खिलाती  खाना सिखाती गाना सिखाती, फिर बच्चों संग उड़ जाती दाना चुगने पानी पीने, वापस फिर मेरे आँगन में आ जाती सबेरे  जाती साँझ आती, फिर झाड़ी में गुम हो जाती  जल्दी  उठाती देर तक बहलाती,  जाने  कब तुम सोने को जाती कुछ दिन कुछ हफ्ते, तुम मेरे घर की रौनक बन जाती  दाना चुगने पानी पीने, वापस फिर मेरे आँगन में आ जाती आशुतोष झुड़ेले Ashutosh Jhureley --o Re Kabira 055 o--
