A Dream

Deep down in the heart, there is a dream of a place..
A place far away from this tyrant-led abyss
A place where people still rise to feel the morning dew

And praise The Creator for His expertly framed masterpiece
Where the only music is of birds chanting every dawn
Welcoming the morning as it sweetly breaks in
Where waves murmur love songs in their deep tones

And the wind plays lullabies for Adam's younger kin
A place where children still run in fields with fearless hearts
Where beauty is modesty and honesty isn't extraordinary

A place where the moon still blissfully smiles
And the sunshine merrily gleams at every tree
A place where a woman's teardrop still shatters hearts
And a child's plea still reaps love and mercy
Where a man's strength, and a man's valour
Still protects the oppressed and helps the needy

A place where they work to earn, and earn to live
Where the night brings contentment and every morning elevates faith
Where people walk without masks and talk without cursing
Where hatred is forbidden and hurting, long forgotten...

A place so calm
So pure
So serene
So true

A place
Where you can still hear God...

Farewell 2013

2013..the year they said would never come along. They ended the whole world back in December 2012 just cuz there were no dates on Mayan calendar beyond that. And here we are, its 31st December already. 

Life's going on...although its a greatly chaotic and if you look at the bigger picture, you'd see the world suffocating and gnawing at itself. At times, it seems the world has really ended. Humanity is an extraordinary trait nowadays. Honesty is like an antique treasure, we never bothered to receive it from our ancestors. And modesty? It was something that was adored and adopted with pride ages ago. Now greater portion of the world has already abandoned it; those who dare to embrace it are eyed abhorrently. 
But that's THE WORLD. My little world is far better. So are the little worlds of many others. 
Instead of being alarmed by the foreign consequences of this rather sad planet, we live merrily in the make believe world of our personal circles.

So yeah, its the beginning of another 365 days with a new number, 2014. The world is celebrating the new year, while longing for a new era.

P.S. For a personal numeric memory, 24th March, 2013 was a grand day.
