Jaipur, the city of pink and palaces- A Poem on Jaipur..with love to the city of pearls and palaces

Date: 6 April 2014.  Day 6@ NaPoWriMo 2014
Title:   Jaipur, the city of pink and palaces


Hawa Mahal Jaipur


In the state of Rajasthan, a pink city of beauty emerged

Known for its pink building and pearls trade in gratitude

To the king of Amber, Jai Singh II who made the city found

Sectors and the high rise walls around the broad city roads


Formal gardens and high rising splendour of Hawa Mahal

Small lakes that adore around the Jaipur city’s grandeaur

World Heritage site of Jantar Mantar that depicts the science

Jaipurian Langurs that jump from the wide spread trees


The water mahal that has three floors bed spread of a lake

Shows you the way the kings and queens lived in peace

Vedic planning of the East to West, North to South

Shows how well the day falls from Sun to Moon


Not just another delightful tourist destination of North

But a magnificient memoir of our golden days of past

Where creative skills danced to the tunes of our kings

And architecture took unbeatable forms of their wills


Jal Mahal of Jaipur, the oldest way to keep cool in summers

And beauty of Ganesh Pol at Amber Fort showcases beauty

Palace of Winds or Palace of Breeze, the great Hawa Mahal

Build in Red and Pink, endorsing Women’s closed chambers


It’s a beautiful honey comb of beehive of 953 windows

Decorate with the lattice work and winds that cool her ladies

Beauty of this place, is that it has no concrete foundation

And stands on the surface to begin and arise the winds


High on a hill, stands a beautiful Amer Fort, with Hindu elements

Cobbled paths, large ramparts and wide series of gates

Marble and red sandstone played in the artists hands

Makes the fort stand tall and wide about Maota Lake


Jaigarh Fort that stands high on the hills of eagles!

Often called as His highness fort of Victory

Once upon a time, world’s largest cannon on wheels!

On the edge of Araville Hills, stand the Nahagarh fort


Impressive view from the top of the Jaipur city

City Palace, the seat of Maharaja’s of Jaipur

Still the place of high elegance and royal residence

Rajpur, Mugal and European styles of architecture
 That makes it a most cherished tourist destination
The Royal flags above the Chandra Mahal

Indicates if the king is in town or on his tours

You will love to watch the huge king’s dresses
 And his court and his special big chair to adore

The diamonds on the crown glitters magnificiently

Showing the wonders of art and grandness of weath


The great Rajput kings who held the pride of riches

With the tradition of trade and administrative reminisces

Thus, Jaipur is the heart of Indian art and traditions

Values and riches,  that made our heritage strong


Cultures and rituals, followed even to this day

This beautiful old pink city of Jaipur makes us feel

Proud and elegant of our wonderful past and history

Yes, this is India, our beautiful incredible glory of India


Cities like Jaipur withstand the test of time and fate

And arise to showcase, that no matter what we survive

Real will and intimate zeal in life is what makes it live on

For every Indian, this is a city of pride and must visit spot on!

Hugs Heals

Just Hug
Me tight in your arms
Hold me for the tear drops to disdain
for the cheers to regain
on my lips
on my face
in my thought

Just Hug
Me tight in your bosom
Do nothing
But just hold me right
that heals my pain
that makes me smile
that brings sunshine

Just Hug
Me in your wishful thinking
You as my dad, my friend
my lover, my husband
what ever form 
that doesn't matter
for it heals me within
that offs the sorrow
that travels down my spine

Just Hug.
with real love
with true affection
for the inner warmth
my soul raises above
the human thoughts
the stupid sights
it knows how pure
its eternal spirit is

Just Hug
Hug me tight
in your arms
and let me sleep
for a little while
this world seems
to be better place
to live and shine
Yes, its just another hug
but it matters
on what it could mean
to me to have sunshine

Just a simple hug
everyday
to show me I am loved
I am cared
and I am alive
Hugs Heals
it just makes deals
of souls to sound
happy and arise

Just Hug!
Nothing Else
but a truthful hug!

Grand Mother - Our Angel God Mother



Date:  7 April 2014..

Grand Mother -  Our Angel God Mother



Light and happy, she was a ordinary fragile woman

Just like her sharp eyes, her thoughts did resonance


Her words were gentle and soft, just like her usual self

She walked with elegance, truly like a born princess


Made us good food, eat right and sleep on time

Hugging each other, in her warmth and tight


She made us do our regular morning prayers

Brought God as an important part of our lives


Virtues of goodness, and wisdom of sharp thoughts

Deeds of care and service to fellow men was taught


She showed us the paths, bolder and brighter to take

Always advised us to stay calm, truthful and never fake


Made us laugh at silly jokes and feel the stars above

Taught us tougher lesson in the simplest ways in love


Shared with us the stories from history and freedom fights

Bed time stories were full of velour and morals nights


We were let to play till we felt truly tired

And with good food and good thoughts to retire


Every day with her injected in us new values

And as we grew under her shade, unveiled ourselves true


Amazingly bold woman with the softer outlook

She was child to children and a story of wisdom


She never lectured us on how to live right

But just made us follow her in peaceful way


We grew up watching her tolerance and love

Her care and passion, her devotion and dedication


Yes, she is one and only Grandmother,

Our God sent Angel and dearest God Mother!

Mountains! Faith Moves Mountains! A Poem in love with mountains



Day 5 @ NaPoWriMo- 5 April 2014

Mountains!  Faith Moves Mountains!




Oh..the breeze of the whispering winds
In the silent swaying of the trees and leaves
Amidst the forest thickening of the greens
With the wild beasts roaring behind the trees

There stood this gigantic breath taking mountains
Filled with white dew drops of snow and ice
And winds gushing at the top like a wild breeze
Amidst the slides of the mountains creeps

Run slowly the smaller waterfalls towards earth
The sounds of the flowing waters raising alarms
Of the current and the power of the wishing wells
Mountains raise high and above the man’s shoulders

Showing its power and dreadfully witty might
It houses the wildest flora and wickedest fauna
The floating clouds on the top of the hills
Whispering silent kisses to the silent peaks

Showing with rainfalls towards the forest hills
The fresh smell of the earth emerge in knolls
Can there be a better time to be on top of them
Looking down the fearsome spread of greens

And the whispering winds of wildness and calm
Making the human hearts jump in fear and mystery
Climbing up the steepest mountain hills
Shows the man’s ability to conquer a bit of himself

It’s not the conquest of the nature to be willed
But raising above his own fears and limits
Mountains, teach you what is pain, what is terrine
They give you the best being part of Mother Nature

Mountains adored to the highest peaks
Conquering the beauty and unending silent peace!
Faith as strong as the mountains
makes heart melt and seasons unfold in grace!

A Visit to Golden Temple- Amritsar. A journey of faith unfolded



Date: 4 April 2014 - Day 4 @ NaPoWriMo 2014
A Visit to Golden Temple- Amritsar.   A journey of faith unfolded



Vahu Guru,  Oh Harminder Sahib…Tributes to you
Walking along the scenic beauty of the honey pond
The temple of God opens up on all four sides to enter
Mixture of Muslim and Hindu architecture makes you wonder

A new spiritual freedom unfolded in its way
As we walk towards the Sri Darbar Sahib temple to pray
Its not just for the Sikhs from all over the world
But for any human being who wants peace and calmness

In life, can truly be there to endear the tolerance and peace
Sikhism is not just another faith, but a way of life
No caste, no creed, no sex or no religion comes on its way
The gates of god are open for all in unity and blissful bay

Heart felt harmony in the air, drink the waters from the pond
And wash away the sins of life in the fragrant waters of the wells
You feel, a new you, a truly calmer and a faithfully blessed
The past, the fears, the gun sounds and operations are now gone

What remains in the air, is a calmer and peaceful temple of God
There can be no reminiscences of the past reflecting on its walls
For Vahu Guru, makes you feel more related to future than its past
As we bow down in prayers, the songs that echo in the air around

The food, the water, the people, the children all in unison
Leaves you no traces of tyranny of the past that played
Its cruel war in this place of worship and in front of temple of God
As they moved on, it teaches you a unique story from the past

That no matter what, faith builds you strong and let you at peace
Leave the past behind the dirty sheds, and learn to move on
Vahu Guru, Oh Harminder Sahib…Tributes to you
Vahu Guru, Oh Sri Darbar Sahib, We truly bow to you

Bless us with good health and peace, and calmness
Take us in the righteous paths of oneness and love!
Vahu Guru, Oh Harminder Sahib…Tributes to you
Vahu Guru, Oh Sri Darbar Sahib, We truly bow to you

Ganges-  A perennial river.  A pious river of spiritual quest


 Oh Mother Ganges…a lovely green showers
On earth flowing from the Serene Shiva’s head
Green like her perennial flows to bless the lands
Life becomes solved, bowing down to you

Oh Mother Ganges, you flow amidst the mighty
Himalayan and dense forests...bringing in a love
Of the waters, skies and lands all in one place
Creating a beautiful warmth amidst the cold waters

Oh Mother Ganges, your tributaries’ makes us pay tributes
To our forefathers, sitting quietly at your Ghats
There is no end to the beliefs we have in your love
For you give us life, give us faith and give us blessings

Oh Mother Ganges, you are source of life
As a sacred Lord Shiva’s endearing wife
You show us paths to take and those not to
Making us realize what is right and what is not

Oh Mother Ganges, you are not just another river
But the flow of our thoughts and all kind of deeds
You show us what life is and what death is
In its truest forms and all visible ways in your arms

Oh Mother Ganges,  we bow to you in reverence
We shed our tears and let the pasts go along your flow
We hug you tight and expect life to change for good
You show us light and let us go in the paths set right

Oh Mother Ganges, in your eternal existence of life
We are blessed to savor your warmth and love
Benefits in the form of health and blessings for wealth
You make our life’s truly blessed. Thank you Mother Ganges!

A beauty called Taj- A Poetry on Taj Mahal – Symbol of Love!



Date: 2 April 2014- Day 2 NaPoWriMo

A beauty called Taj-  A Poetry on Taj Mahal – Symbol of Love!



The gates to Taj opened up a splendor
Grandeur in white marble all over
Walking ahead of the red stones walls
A moon light on earth witnessed a fall



The radiance of the symmetrical walls
Symbolizing the depths of a love
It’s not just another tomb stones to visit
But a mesmerizing visual treat

The carvings that speak wonders of art
Creative skills that adored the walls
The four pillars of the Taj look like
Giant soldiers standing in guard

Eyes were not just enough to admire
Ornaments of flowers and plants adore
Amidst the waters of Yamuna flowing
Behind the northern walls of Taj

Truly said as a symbol of Shah’s love
For his endearing wife Mumtaz…Wah Taj
Buried for the third and final time
Her remains with his lay hidden inside

The walls of the tomb stones that can be seen
Quran inscribed all over the outer walls
Make you feel bowing down for a Namaz
Mystically closed chambers in the Taj

Make you ponder on the creation for a while
As you walk across the 17 hectares miles
You will feel a sense of echoing love
She may not be just one queen of Shah
But for sure, she had a special place
22 long years of construction marvel
With 20,000 plus workers adored
The steps to Taj smell of the sweat
And blood of the workers who built it


It’s not just a epitome for Mumtaz
But a creative wonder in stone for all
Which ever way you see Taj, it reflects
The same image of symmetrical walls


It is a sure architectural wonder
Amidst the feeling of love it blinders
Poetry in stone, written for ever
With its beauty, charm and love


Its man’s pride in his creation
Love is one of the essences in passion
Truly a symbol of eternal love
Of a man and woman that stays on


Times may come and men may go
Taj will stand with its beauty for ever
Reminding generations to come
That Love is alone the winning bond


Between human hearts and minds uniting
Love can just not build mausoleums
Its leaves behind engineering marvels
Love is not just in the life living together
It is also in resting in final sleep altogether!
