Poem-2:
Created: 27 July 2006
हर दर्द बुरा नहीं होता ,
हर मंजिल आसान नहीं होती .
जीवन की राह कठिन है बड़ी ,
पर तुम जैसा हमसफ़र मिले ना जिसे
उसका सफ़र सुहाना नहीं होता .
यूं तो लोग मिलते -बिछड़ते है हर रोज यहाँ ,
पर हर मुलाक़ात हसीं हो , ऐसा समां हमेशा नहीं होता
लोग साथ रहकर भी हैं कितने तन्हा ,
पर इक याद भर से ही जो दूरियाँ मिटा दे ,
ऐसा दोस्त हर किसी के पास नहीं होता .
शुक्रगुजार हूँ मैं उस खुदा का , जिसने मुझे तुमसे मिलाया
आख़िर , तुम जैसा प्यारा साथी हर किसी को नसीब नहीं होता .

We are pleased to know that you are into poetry too.
Further, we would like you to know that we now think of you as the deep blue ocean rather than a shallow ditch.

We are waiting to know your views on our views.
Best regards,

Hi Anonymous well wisher,
Thanks for your comments.
Life is a continuous journey to be amazed by never ending wonders. All we need to do is to open our eyes and go with the flow of life.
Regarding poetry, I am reminded of a comment made by Robin Williams in a famous movie "The dead poets society"
"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, 'O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless--of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?' Answer. That you are here--that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?"
