Oh Meluhan! - WIP

Loving the Shiva triology...
It's been almost a few months since I finished reading both - The Immortals of Meluha and The Secret of the Nagas by Amish Tripathi and the Meluhan has had such a mesmerizing effect on me...that I had to start sketching my version of HIM!

"Har Har Mahadev"

First Appearance!

It was another day

It was a part of the routine

It was the usual activity

Just that it didnt feel the same

Familiar delicacy

Familiar fingers 

And tender lips that parted

For the familiar activity

Just that it didnt feel the same

The tenderness only a little hard

The drooling only a little less

The color,  it should be

The sharpness, it's got to be

The FIRST TOOTH had appeared :)

P.S = Cheers to Mother Nature! 

I enjoyed waiting and watching for the teeth to appear...

KISSES!

I remember my DAD’s kiss

at the airport

When it was time for me to fly

I remember my HERO’s kiss

on a beautiful night

When it was time for a new life

I remember my BROTHER’s kiss

an evening in the midst of shipment packed

Privileged to have known his affection hive

I remember my PUPPY’s kiss

a cold and weary night

to all times shared

as he rose among the clouds and stars in the sky

and there is NOW - a time I want to buy

an attempt to remember

a wish to hold it long

a memory to play it back on and on

I wish I could freeze and put a hold on time

Oh Darling SON!

your kisses have given life a whole new rhyme :)

When you are away

Ah! the lone nights

When you are away from home

it is such a drag

The hands on the clock

seem to have frozen for eternity

Making it only harder

As I hug your scent 

and try to sleep

The walls echo your deep voice

and whisper sweet kisses

Making it only harder

Impressions on the mattress 

and the crumpled blanket - remind me

Of the shoulders I have leaned on

the torso I have played on

I spread myself to

try and fit your space 

Making it only harder

The air is cold

the room is emptier

The toilet seat is upright

it's your fragrance in the room

Making  it only harder

Your towel, your clothes - 

is what I see myself searching for

To get a whiff of you

and let your scent fill the missing blanks

Making it only harder

Its not even an hour

and I miss you already

Making it only harder

when you are away!

My love for scribblings!

Ever since I have known myself, colors, crayons, paint and canvas boards have fascinated me. With no formal training and only love for colorful expression, my creations missed a learning. The need to document and preserve. It has always been like draw and discard because I never seem to be satisfied with them and have never thought they are all worth preserving....

Luckily, I found a few which I did in the recent past....

Thanks to the fellow bloggers who have motivated me enough to get them on the web....
