The rainy day that made me think so deep :)

Things I've learned:

You can't please everybody. At times, you have to be brave enough to say out, even it means you are going to loose your dear ones.

Keeping something in heart will just burden you, and wasting tears unnecessarily. Tell the person, if they care, they will talk to you. If they don't, stay away from them. You are not attached to anyone.

 Opportunity knocks only once. When you missed it. You really missed it.

Be greedy and selfish. The new trend. Think for yourself first. ( My moral taught me that; kepentingan diri melebihi kepentingan masing-masing)

Embrace positive energies. Take everything in a positive way.

When someone trying to pull you down, make you feel jealous,hatred and weak, just smile and ignore.You have something better to worry about. they failed in doing that.

Care for your loved ones. They may not be there all the time.

Spend most of your time with animals. They bring joy to your heart.

Have a friend who is good in listening. You need them always. And, you, in turn, be a good listener for her, too. 

Love Mother Nature. For all those walks that you went alone, with mind empty but heart full, Thank Her. 

Pray before sleep.

Thank Him for His everlasting love, precious lessons and advice. Thank Him for the beautiful day that he had let you spent, and for the beautiful day that He has set for you the next day.

Get blessings from your parents everyday. Give them a peck on the cheek. Show your love, before it is too late.

Trust everyone. When they loose your trust, just smile and get them off your 'highly respected and trusted' list. They don't deserve it.

Lastly, Live your life!

 

Laboratory, I meant.

blue flame
swaying left right
as per ordered by the air
from above in a cabinet

Bunsen burner, I meant.

clear transparent fluid
I float.
my other half
stuck at bottom.
We're separated

Centrifugation, I meant.

Baker's yeast
I mingle with
in conical jar
we spent a day
foul smell we form

Fermentation, I meant.

Mere banana stem
called 'sample'
New name, I loathe
they refrigerate me
heat me
cooled me
incubate me
acidify me
neutralize me
Again refrigerate.
after all I go through,
They announce 'EXPERIMENT FAILED'
Nasty damned humans.

Funny! Came to my mind while sitting in the lab doing freeze drying. Hahax!

·         I drive car barefooted

WHEN WILL YOU...

WHEN WILL YOU....

© Anup B Deen

As I gaze at the sky when it rains 
As blood flows through my veins 
I wonder what makes life so auspicious 
inspite of the whole world being so malicious 

My dear rain...

As you pour down with all your might 

When will you come to me as my guiding light?
When will you wash my heart ? 
When will you quench my thirst ?
When will you show me something thats unrehearsed ? 

I protect myself when you arrive..
in my desire to survive..
but that does that mean I dont love you? 
does that mean I despise you?

Once you leave , the sun will shine 
leaving behind your marks which is way too divine.. 
Your tears and pure and plain.. 
Mine are salty and filled with pain.. 
When will you immerse mine in yours ? 
When will you guide me with your sail and take me to the shores ? 


Took this poem from the net,  http://www.poetryinnature.com/nature/poetry.asp?poem=5349 


well illustrated on his feelings..

Rain on me...

leisuring by the window,

on a rainy day,

mesmerized by God’s creation.

soul soothing songs on your headset,

filling your heart completely,

competing with the sound of rain outside.

musculared trees,

standing still,

year long,

refuse to move,

waves at you,

by strong wind gush.

darling flower buds getting drenched,

in drops of heavy rain,

as though purifying them.

I,

wanna be those bud.

raindrops dancing on my lip,

adhere to skin,

showering me.

To feel,

satisfaction,

drenching wholely

peace,

penetrating calmly

and freedom.

releasing heart from all troubles

Clear blue sky,

 clothed with colourful rainbow,

sound of rain getting low,

birds chirping,

out from nest.

Slowly, blessing of God has stopped.
