LOST!!

Lost!!

The poem describes the feelings of an NRI who wishes to return to his motherland...the picture symbolizes "staying abroad but an Indian at heart!"..

I am lost in a lonely place,
With no one in the alley,
Having a recognizable face,
I am treated as an unwelcome visitor,
Always viewed skeptically,
As this prejudice goes on forever,

I am lost in a lonely nation,
Where everything seems so alien,
I wonder why I craved to be a land so far off,
With no one to call our own,
Where nothing whatsoever reminds me of,
The things on which I had grown,

I am lost in this superpower country,
No doubt, free from filth and poverty,
But here, the people are not mine,
They don’t care whether I am upset or fine,
I miss my beloved folks so kind,
As all the memories keep on encircling my mind,

I have had enough of racial discrimination,
And all the unpleasant swears and allegation,
My greed had brought me here,
But now it’s my patriotism,
That will take me back from here,
To my country, my motherland; to my beloved nation……

To you , my mother!! Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator. Thank You, for everything you've done, I need you, I really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I remember a day of the past, When you held my little finger, Took me to school the very first day. I was crying, terribly upset, Coz i didn't want to stay away from you. I remember how i used to cry, When every morning you went to the dispensary. I needed you then, i need you even now. I need your guidance, your advice. I need your backing, your support. Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator, Over the past few years, You've become my guide, my mentor, I need you, i really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I am indeed very lucky, To have a mother as sweet as you. I am indeed very lucky, To have someone who cares for me, Who appreciates my achievements with glee, Yet equally stern when i am wrong. You have a heart of gold, my mother, Please stay by my sid

You have enriched my life!! In an era where happy marriages are an illusion, In you I see love so untainted, so true, It is pleasantly surprising and gladdening, And I feel so lucky to spend my life with you, The twinkle in your eyes; the caring look on your face, I see, as I open my eyes every morning, I feel your soft hands gently stroking my forehead, The moment is beyond doubt, refreshing, I feel excited while coming back from work, Knowing someone’s eagerly waiting for me, And as we sit and share the day’s happenings, All my worries vanish; I feel happy and free, Sweetheart, let me hold you for a moment, And let all the memories flow, From the first time we met, the first time we kissed, To the birth of our children, and seeing them grow, The times spent with you have been priceless, And I can’t imagine living even a day without you, Dear, your smile mesmerizes me even now, I can spend my whole life merely gazing at you. I feel like praising you all the time, For you are a

[care for your loved ones, for u may not be with them the next moment] Love:: a journey!! What is love, a waste of time, Thought so, when i was nine. Stupid romantic movies i saw, that had many a flaw. But then, aged twelve i saw, a beautiful maiden, so elegant and tall, so beautiful, so much like a doll. That made me wonder, it made me ponder, Am i in love? I was eighteen ,and when dad would speak, all i felt, was to shout and shriek, for, a stern military voice he had i thought, being in love, is it so bad? Running, i went to my mother , but she didn't even bother. no one cared, no one listened, Drenched in pain, Tried to convince them what love is, But in vain, yet again... Years had passed, i had turned twenty five, last month, and about to take a vow, the same girl that she had been, since, at the age of twelve, i had seen, was now my bride-to-be.. Sometimes in life, u burn, but destiny always takes a nice turn, that makes life so full of fun. smitten by her, now about to mar
