Friendly Addiction: Unlimited Interactions

  In life, we get all kinds of friends, some close, some closer, some strangers, some travelers. In my experience, at one point in my life, I had more than 500 friends, during my school days back in Carmel Convent School, Hamirpur, Rourkela. My parents would constantly see me getting phone calls, and visitors independent of their demographics.      My father would smile and say, "Jenny, are you an IAS officer?, that you get so many calls in a day?" . I used to laugh in response and say, "Paa, they all want me to solve their problems, and I love the attention".     How did this happen?, it didn't happen when I started school, trust me, I was really shy, hardly talking and surprisingly even my teachers in kindergarten had escalated issues, stating that I don't even show classwork to teachers during the class. I was the youngest, in my father's family and I had a total of 6 elder cousins to look upto, including my elder brother. When I started school...

Color Me

Color me a rainbow..
Piercing through a tear drop.
Color me a dense shadow..
That gushes into a fearless mob.
Build me a giant castle..
That touches a cloud’s muscle.
Carve me a silver horse..
That runs through the night’s hustle.
Color me the inside of a den..
Where I can hide when..
Sculpture questions into a cultured pen..
Leading the world to reside oblivious to insane.
Trick me into wisdom..
Talk me out of freedom..
Quote someone to fame..
Just save capture from burning into flame.
Color me as an outcaste..
Out in a forest dark and dense..
Where voices fail to reach me..
Outspoken but annoyingly unbroken..
Like the branches rooting out from a once lustrous tree..
Painting the rivers green..
Color me a portrait..
Of the faith unseen.
Spreading out wide in the land of mean.
