My sketches

I sketch to relax my nerves, and for fun. So I don't spend too much time on imagining what to draw, and most of my work is a reflection of other people's art, but as I see them with my 'Glowy' vision (that's what I call it)... Hope you enjoy them. Cheers!

Best of me at the table

I see, I live, and I desire a “MAN SHIFT”

I live in a world of humans, who live for war and glory;
I live in a world of humans, who everyday rise with a new story,

I see people fight for their perceptions and belief,
And in turn I see them ruin others relief,

I see bloodshed in the name of brotherhood,
While, I see other millions dying due to dearth of food,

I see the diplomatic gains people make out of the dead,
And I find them overlooking the intensifying threat,

I see the pain in the eyes of mothers,
Who lost their children in wars-fighting for others,

I see an old father wishing for his extremist son’s comeback,
And I see his grief on knowing that his son did another hijack,

I see the hatred, the anger and the egos grown,
And I see the continuous insecurities of things unknown,

Is this what makes us the superior-most; “MANKIND”?
Or it’s just that we have flawlessly learnt the play of acting “Blind”?

Then, I see the other side of the world, with happy and smiling faces,
The world of my dreams, with people together from all races,

Where I own a garden of fruits and flowers,
That remains open for everyone, at all hours,

Where houses don’t need fences or locks,
And help arrives before a problem knocks,

Where no one asks your hierarchy or name,
And no one has the lust for heaven or fame,

Where no one leads no one and, no one sits on the throne,
Where everyone believes in “Live and let live”, and can manage on his own,


Will my world remain a dream forever?
It’s not a “One man task”; it requires us Humans to be together.

Should we wait for another calamity to change the world...another "Polar shift"?
Or move a step, enrich our living, and create a "MAN SHIFT”?

Last night…

The night was dark, the moon was high,
Just then an angel appeared, so svelte, so shy…
She looked towards me and stopped ahead,
As I stood watching her, with all my senses dead
She asked me for a dance; I said I’ll try,
It happened so wonderfully that I got jubilant with joy.
We went for a walk, which was long years,
And by her magical conversations, she vanished all my fears…
Then the moment came when she said she’ll have to leave,
I heard her words clearly, but didn’t want to believe.
I tried to encumber her… I asked her to stay…
But she was bound to leave and didn’t stop in any way.
I said "I need you, without you I’ll die…"
But my words fell on deaf ears, and she started to fly…
I ran, I shouted… and opened my eyes with a scream…
Just to find that all that happened, was just another dream.
Thinking about yesterday, In my bed I lie…
Watching the dazzling stars in the sky…
I feel I knew her, I don’t know why,
And I would love to have that dream once more,
Just to bid her "Goodbye"…

Are you really busy?

Do you have the time to think about your life?
Or you simply live like a dead man alive?
Do you watch the rain, the glittering stars, the vivid sky and the smiling sun?
Or just sit in an AC room with a wired electronic display, a cup of brewed caffeine, and miss all the fun?
Do you hear nature’s music, the giggles of children, and the sounds of silence?
Or you crib on the share market, the government and the never-ending violence?
Do you roam on the roads at dark, ride on high gears, and chat with ol’ friends?
Or you simply lay in you bed, reading the latest mag on the market trends?
Do you take your girl on a date, eat on streets, and shop generously?
Or save your money for future and the inflation rate growing so tremendously?
Do you visit your parents, listen to their stories and have a hearty laugh?
Or cancel your tickets and give them reasons for not getting an off?
Is this the life you always dreamt for?
Or just an illusion of success, where you strive for your bread as if in a war?
Life is too short my friend, so enjoy every moment as if it’s the last one. Love people, connect and rise to newer horizons.
Cherish the memories of ones who loved and cared for you, and don’t change with the changing seasons…
