Happy Birthday
To the Divine soul
In a holy land
Near the almighty
In a land
Which is
Above all the aspirations
Above all the struggles
Above all the agonies
In a land
Which is filled with peace
Eternal trance
Abundant grace
We wish you
Happy Birthday
We can’t digest what happened
We can’t accept what happened
We can’t stop asking questions to ourselves
Except torturing ourselves with the truth
That we lost our battle with Covid
We lost our pretty diamond in this war
We can’t reverse what happened
Except ruminating her memories
Till the end
A tribute to my beautiful sister
With our grief mounted hearts
A tribute to all
Who fought but lost Covid-claw
God has the mercy
To thrust into our lives
In his multiple forms
As in
A doctor
A savior
A nurse
An ambulance driver
A medicine
An oxygen cylinder
Whatever the form it takes
To save the lives
In these darkest times
In these critical conditions
In these desperate times
In these hopeless situations
To restore the normality
Just the normality
To regain the right to live

I can decorate your braid
I can embrace your neck
I can fall on Almighty’s foot
I am the Fragrance everywhere
What makes the difference if any jerk says
You are short lived
When I can be useful in all the places
To beautify
To lighten
To brighten
To Perfume
What more can I expect than this
Greatest respect I earned
Though short lived
Isn’t it something even a lengthy idle life can’t achieve?
@Anjana Lahuri @2020
Treasure the good memories
As the times change
And things may not be the same
A good memory lead you to live
Even when
You are neglected
You are devalued
You are forgotten
Except
For your pretty faults
Which doesn’t have any weight
But even then
Don’t break
Don’t shake
Don’t fight
Just be yourself
Value yourself
Live for yourself
Treasure the good memories
Though the times change
Though the things may not be the same
They will reboost you
To live again
With confidence
With energy
With hope
That you will do better
In this tough world
@Anjana Lahuri@2021
Why shouldn’t I work round the clock
Though my legs are painting
My hands are tiring
My eyes are straining
My brain is storming
If it gives me satisfaction
Confidence
Hope
Knowledge
That I can’t buy anywhere
Without hardworking
@Anjana Lahuri 2021
I am a disturbed creature
I am a troubled soul
I am a neglected being
I am a loser
Do you feel that way?
Then
How about going to a temple?
Sit solemnly
Absolving yourself
How about going on a long drive?
In a route
With no halts
How about a refreshing movie?
Better If your favorite star’s
Or Comedy
How about a boat drive in chilling water?
No problem if you don’t have a company
You can dive in to the nature in symphony
How about roaming around?
Green fields
Rustic landscapes
Wait wait
It’s already much time wasted
Thinking about what to do
Unable to make a decision
Only to get more disturbed, more troubled…
Quick quick
Stick to the first thing
That strikes your mind
That soothens your soul
That comforts your heart
Let me tell you
Recovery is not a big thing
Resumption is not a tough swing
Happiness is not that far away

Here is the meaning of festival today
Get ready
In a new dress
With new accessories
Have a click from mobile
With a most weird pose
One is from photo
One is selfie
Then post it
In Instagram
In the Facebook
In the pinterest
In the tumbler
And many more
Then threw the dress in the wardrobe again
Probably may not be useful for the second time
Check the likes you got
Yes the festival ended productively
We were active in social media
That’s enough for show
Being in the social media row
@Anjana Lahuri 2021
It’s been two years
Since he left us
Leaving in grief
That
he is not between us
To talk
To laugh
To share
Though
We believe
He is still with us
In our hearts
In our thoughts
In our decisions
Remembering
Always
What he taught us
What he expected from us
@Our Family 2021
Woman
Who is still fighting for her own place
For an unconditional love she poured for her family
Who is still waiting for the appreciation she had deserved
For the sacrifices she done at the cost of her individuality
Who is still bearing patiently
The negation persisted in valuing her decision
Can
At tough times
Embrace any difficulty
With enormous strength
With open arms
With unbounded perseverance
To stand as a pillar to hold the crumpling family tree.
Can
In troubled waters
Face any challenge
With her courage
With her talents
With her fighting spirit
With her ambitions
To stand unique in whatever the field she choose
To hold a position of her own in country’s crown
@Anjana Lahuri @2021
One minute it appears I am strong
I can face anything
The next, I am weak
Weakest to face nothing
Do I have the wit to balance it and move on?
One day I believe I am everything
Life is under my terms
The next, to my disbelief
It is the opposite
Do I have the wit to balance it and move on?
One instant I feel I am right everywhere
I point others
The next, that I am wrong totally
I point to myself
Do I have the wit to balance it and move on?
One second the world is around me
I have no time to prioritize the things
The next i am all alone
I feel dead lock
Do I have the wit to balance it and move on?
Maybe
If I have the wit to balance the pace of life
Every second every minute
Every instant every day
The semblance of it may turn into a peaceful reality
@Anjana Lahuri@2021
Why is the Sun red
To wake you up from the bed
Why is the Sky blue
To reax you from blue moods
Why is the Moon white
To send you straight into dreams
Why the Stars twinkle
To stare at your dimple when you smile
Why is the night dark
To make you spark
Why are the flowers brandish
To see you flourish
Why the seashore is calm
To reax you from your qualms
Why the birds chirp
To cheer you up every day
