GREY city

Paris – Capital and largest city of France, situated on the river Seine, is in northern France, at the heart of the Île-de-France region. It is a city of dreams, a city of love, fashion capital and a tourist delight. Every description of Paris is true if you are here as a Tourist. It is a sight to behold, a city that is excellently connected and every corner of it has an amazing history. Called the grey city for it building’s it is now turning out to be GREY.
Saint Denis – historic importance, State De France – Stadium of Paris that hosts wonders and a hub of corporate houses surround this region – you might be at no fault if you expected this to be one of the safest regions in Île-de-France region . But the truth remains you are not safe here from 7 to 7, no matter which mode of transportation you use and what gender and colour you are. This is one such region where Asians (Srilankans, Indians and Pakistanis), Arabic (Turkish, Algerians and Moroccans), Africans (all over the continent) out number Chinese who outnumber the original Parisians and there are many more regions in Paris of this ratio.
Paris is no more a city where you would be safe walking the streets of Notre Dame, Basilique du Sacré-Coeur or Eiffel tower in the night. A walk with your love in these streets would have a romantic dream of many from the movies or the books. The reality is those years have gone by and Paris in the night is a scary. It is a city where in just 20 days of living I have seen more crimes than 20 years in my life – cuts, snatches, knifes and even the GUNS.
GREY city it is! And I would now really understand why the true Parisians are reluctant to Internationalise. All the people who have touched their city, their heart have polluted and corrupted the city and I would not be wrong in saying, have de-grown the Aura of Paris. The number of illegal residents out here would make up the numbers of big Europe cities. Attacked and outnumbered by the residents from other countries who now call themselves the “Parisians” with properties and rights to live in this country, I sympathise with true Parisians. If ever the French decide to clean this mess from the CITY of DREAMS, which is highly unlikely because of the corruption that is in the system, I would definitely support the move, hands down. It needs it AURA back otherwise PARIS shall be lost.

Au Revoir


Old faces must move as they have distances to cover
New faces will give longevity to this MSCPM River
Good bye is sad, recollecting the past
Goodbye is hard, memories are cast
From miles we came flying
Enjoyed togetherness with playing
Time flew bye, the year elapsed
Time for goodbye, Moments will be cherished
My hearty wishes to the hunters
Pray for merriness around us the punters
Farewell is beautiful, a glimpse into the future
Farewell is wonderful, it sets for adventure

HAT

The hats we wear are many

some not worth a penny, some sweet as honey,

some spreading smiles, some covering stormy miles,

The hats we wear are many

Other night,

wind and lust conspired

taking the dear one down the drain

breeze and silence whispered

initially telling my dear one's pain

and then,

signaling a new start, knowing your craft

wishing you luck, bags of luck

Friend remember, the hat we wear are many

Snow sshhhh

Snow in the day,
Making it a beautiful sight,
At first i start to play,
Hurling snow balls is a delight

As the winter get strong
The snow get hard
The winds get it wrong
Even lips and skin get cracked

Shsh the white carpet is ready
I don't fancy the walk
Work awaits me today
I pray for a snow break

Snow snow go away
I am no Eskimo
Sun please make your way
I had enough of snow

PAIN

PAIN - What is it ?

Is it an absence of happiness or presence of sadness ?

Is it knowing something you wouldn't want to hear - breaking the shell that clouds your own understanding of you ?

Is it someone ripping you naked to baking sun ?

Is it one of those seasons to your heart like the winter to trees ?

Is it a self-chosen present to keep the balance of emotions ?

Is it the bitter fruit that you taste ?

What ever be the case....you are not alone all this time, there is a guiding hand in the form of relatives, friends, love, parents. For those who are far away from all have memories of their loved ones to reflect on, the silence with God and inner-self.

For this is a gift by him, though heavy and hard, a gift to know yourselves better.

I wish !

I wish I wish I wish....

You make me feel special,
You make me feel new,
You make me feel loved,
You make me feel wanted.

I love the way you kiss me,
I love the way you touch me,
I love the way you hug me,
I love the way you complete me.

I wish i could say this,
I wish i would experience this,
I wish..I wish...I wish !!
