O dear Mango
The King of fruits
Why is it that the time for you to go
and the time for you to come back is so far

Life

Life is doubtful but death is inevitable
what is born has to die
Life is a series ofstruggles
To be borne with a smile
No matter what happens
Come out to be a winner

The Daku mantri

We had recently shifted to a govt.allotted flat in New Delhi.It was a completely different experience after having lived in the walled city.The flats were recently made and we were the first occupant of the flat.Whenever something was organized or some message had to be passed to the residents the chowkidar would move from block to block making announcements over a loudspeaker.We used to rush to the balcony to hear what was being said.One evening the chowkidar was making an announcement,asking the people to collect in the main garden as daku mantri would be shown.We were greatly excited at the prospect of seeing a movie.We had never heard the name before and tried to rack our brains to find a clue of who were the stars.Eventually at the alloted time a huge cloth screen was put up and we waited for the movie to begin.We were in for disappointment as what followed wasa documentary film.Then we added the pieces together and came to the conclusion that the chowkidar had wanted to say documentary but spoke it as daku mantri.Though disappointed for the moment it was the start of a series of movies shown for the entertainment of the residents

Romy's moonlight escapade

Romy
Romy came to me after six months of my marriage when my inlaws got transferred to another city.He was quiet and indifferent and not much attached to me.Soon he started listening to me but was scared stiff of my husband.Night escapdes were his forte and he would rush out of the back door as night fell only to return in the morning.One evening we noticed him behaving strangely.It was the night of the full moon.He rushed out as if possessed and was soon engulfed in the wild growth adjoining our house.Then we saw him standing under a huge tree quite a distance away looking up at the moon.Suddenly he started howling and went on at regular intervals.With morning he sneaked in and rushed up the stairs and hid under the bed on the balcony.We locked the door and fearfully placed a cup of water near him through the window as it is said that when a dog turns insane it does not drink water.luckily it sipped the water.After some days my sister inlaw passed it to her friend.A few months later I came to know that her friend had him put to sleep due to his strange behaviour putting an end to his moonlight sojourns.

The changed face of Delhi

If a city could speak then Delhi would have volumes to speak about.With Tne influx of different communities in search of work and a better lifestyle.The population rose in numbers and continues to swell.There has been a great surge in construction of new buildings,as a result leading to congestion and pollution.On the other hand Delhi has become more beautiful by way of huge flyovers and speedier transport with the Metro rail.
