Reminiscence



Drifting white foams with swaying milky waves
I am looking around and find this endless shore
Every vulnerable and insignificant mind
Could relax and unwind at this silvery sand
When the desirous waves flirting at me
By caressing my legs and toes
I could hardly resist its gentle approach
'Coz after all am a poor soul
I am looking at this lovely crest
Where sea and land embrace each other
In a state of tranquility, I forget myself
Of course and my pains too
Deep down inside my quiet soul
I could find the shades of bright blue
The reminiscence of beautiful moments
Will linger in my mind till eternity

The 'SHE' State


Her sharp nose
The round face
She bends a while 
My heart sank

The mind knows
The touch of body
The heart senses
Those silly excitements

The fear of God 
Remains;
Encompassing passion
Rules!

She looked somewhere
As if nothing had happened
She walked off
When I came to reality

The world evolves
And so my thoughts
My mind is calm,
Pondering and wandering

Just a Thought


The world is not
Waiting to receive my message
Nor am desperate 
To deliver the one

When love has 
Lost its value
Where words have
Anything to say

I am plain,
As plain as a white paper
Anyone can write anything
I'm not bothered

The dawn is pleasant and
The Sun has started its work
When the Nature is clear,
Why can't we, can we?


A Poem by Ayubkhan.U

This World


I am seeing this world where
Possibilities are abundant.
As infinit resources buried within
This world evolves, giving hope to millions.

Life may not be probably easy
For a common man, its true.
Yet it is also not impossible
For the mind that is passionate to achieve.

Keep moving 'cause even luck never favors
The one who is always lazy!
Strive hard and prove that
Hard work is the mother of goodluck!

Love solves all our problems
If its a true love indeed.
So love this world to solve
The universal problems, as a whole.

Being Lonely-A Poem



This evening sounds gloomy;
As dark sky competes with darker clouds!
Engulfing dullness that reduce my pace,
My wandering mind searched my love everywhere.

This passion causes agony;
The agony that one knew not.
When life’s futile effort ends with loneliness,
How one could ever expect love to bloom!

The entire world seems to be busy;
Am I destined to be alone?
Her reflecting face mocks at me,
Of my being alone and deserted!

There is a world with in the world,
For the one to dwell or live.
If the world of thought could make me get stuck,
Is this world worth living?

Why Numbers are more attractive than Letters-An Article


Interesting topic! The entire world is governed by two elements, Letters and Numbers. While twenty six letters create innumerable paragraphs to describe, with just ten numbers the solution is being arrived quickly and instantly. How interesting it is, isn't it?


Letters often form the best literature and Numbers could invent a new Science. Literature helps us to know ourselves and understand where we stand. It helps us to preserve our culture and gives valuable morals and gives advice that's needed for our day to day life.


Number defines the value of all precious things. One month’s hard work is being rewarded through currency that indicates the numbers. A day could have been long for anyone but it is just 24 hours only.


We often find the hard work rather tiresome, yet if we could find a short cut method to complete any task it becomes hassle-free. The volume of books that can't help us to arrive at a consensus is being arrived through a simple formula. These formulas rule the world in all fields. They tend to be attractive, and anything easy tends to be attractive. All short cuts are appealing, and numbers could give instant solution, there is no wonder its being attractive.

Books,theories,reviews and analyzing consumes a lot of time before it produces a big volume of points. It could help us by giving valuable ideas, yet it sometimes leads to arguments that never arrive at a consensus. Great epics are regarded by masses, yet not understood by many. It needs time to concentrate and understand, and also requires patience to find the truth.  Again quite often the truth becomes bitter and ultimately turns unattractive. Those books that try to tell the truth are adored, as well as despised. It depends up on the individual’s state of mind.


If numbers are often attractive it could also be a state of mind. It is not whether it is attractive or unattractive. One must profoundly think to identify whether it is useful or not. Books could be useful and may not be attractive. Entertainment could be attractive but may not be useful.


Considering all the above facts, we may arrive at a conclusion that Numbers continue to reign by being attractive than Letters for its simplicity in delivering the desired results quickly and instantly. In other words we could rather say Letters describe and Numbers define.

Vivid Imagination and Sweet Memories-A Poem


I am seeing the bird flying at this long sky!
Using this blue sky, as heavenly abode!
This great height is not just a destination!
It is just a beginning, a humble beginning!

There is a limit for everything!
We limit our habits, food and friends!
We tend to limit everything, not our imagination!
This vivid imagination is a pleasure, isn't it?

This long road has a long story to tell!
It reveals the truth it witnesses!
The story of its passers by and,
The story of stark reality that life reveals!

This red sky at the west is amazing!
Its the process of the golden sun retiring!
Just retiring, retiring for the day!
Making the birds return to their nest hurriedly!

Nature makes our life interesting!
Making the life more meaningful,
Through its abundance resources it bestows!
This sweet memory adds color to our life!

Xing Tom-The adventure with Chocolate King




Part-2

When Xing Tom opened his eyes it was dark and he was lying on the floor. He vaguely remembered what happened in the morning. The light was dim over there and Xing Tom soon realized that he was locked in a jail. Xing Tom was able to see that at the lock up gate, one short and plump fellow was guarding with a chocolate gun. A plate filled with various chocolates kept besides him. When Xing Tom went near the lock up gate, the fellow outside the gate stared at him questioningly. ‘Eat the food and be ready. You will be taken to the palace in a couple of minutes’ he informed Xing Tom. Now Xing Tom slowly realized that he is kept custody by the Chocolate king, the ruler of this peculiar country.   Xing Tom silently took his plate of chocolates and devoured it quickly. He was so hungry as such he could not resist eating those chocolates which really was so yummy and delicious.

Xing Tom having a cat nap suddenly heard the shoe sound of people walking and woke up. About five soldiers came near the lock up gate and one of them opened the gate. The one who opened the lock up gate called Xing Tom to come out of the lock up room. They all traveled in a small vehicle driven by a peculiar type of small made horses and reached the palace in the next hour.

It was a large grand hall. At the entrance of the palace two guards in uniforms were standing. That spacious hall was placed with ornamental chairs at both the sides, leaving way to walk in between. Many people in rich costumes seated in the chairs. At the end of the hall followed by few steps two bigger chairs were placed in which the King and the Queen seated, appearing majestic. Xing Tom was standing in front of the King who was small made and short, wearing rich costumes and a golden crown. Next to him the Queen seated wearing beautiful costumes. Both King and Queen looked at Xing Tom inquisitively for a while and the King broke the silence and started talking.

‘Who are you biggy?’ The King asked Xing Tom at a lower voice.  ‘I am Xing Tom from London’ he answered boldly. ‘I am King chocolate’ the King talked in a majestic voice. ‘And what made you to enter our Kingdom of chocolate?’ he quietly inquired. “I really don’t know how I came. I was just riding my bi-cycle and suddenly found myself in this place’ Xing Tom answered. ‘We live in this country peacefully and I don’t want strangers to disturb our peace loving people at any cost’ the King retorted in high pitch. ‘I won’t trouble your people, I will be rather much helpful to you’ he gave the assuring answer. ‘Alright, if that is the case, we will leave you at the border tomorrow and may have to return to your country’ the King gave his decision.

Xing Tom was released and given a tiny house to stay for a day. The King ordered to send a sack full of variety chocolates to Xing Tom to eat until he leaves the country. People over there are drinking chocolate color water and Xing Tom was also given the same to drink.

Xing Tom really wondered about this strange country and the strange people. ‘Chocolates are living, chocolate is ruling’, he told himself.  It was evening; Xing Tom was able to see the sun set through the window. It made the sky red and he enjoyed the visual of nature. He though and triggered his thought process and slept for a while.

The knocking sound at the door woke Xing Tom from his sound sleep. It must be late evening, Xing Tom thought. ‘Who is this’ Xing Tom inquired. ‘We are from the King’ a coarse voice answered. Xing Tom. When he opened the door he was surprised to find a chariot richly ornamented with flowers, waiting in front of the gate. ‘Sorry to disturb you sir at this hour’, King invited you to have dinner with him tonight’ a soldier in uniform politely informed him. Xing Tom swiftly entered the chariot and seated inside. A beautiful maid inside served him superior chocolates to eat.

After traveling an hour finally Xing Tom reached the King’s palace and received the warm welcome from King and Queen who were waiting outside. ‘Welcome biggy, taste our nice feast before you leave our chocolate kingdom’ the king expressed with joy. There was a large dining hall; Xing Tom, King, Queen and ten other ministers were sitting there. There was a large variety of fruit chocolates and superior quality chocolate drinks served by beautiful maids.

When the dinner was over, the King invited Xing Tom to visit the Palace. It was such a nice palace with lots of rooms in it. With rich woodwork the rooms were in sparkling clean.  The King asked Xing Tom to open a room.  When opened, he was amazed to find a small mountain load of chocolates were scattered over there. The King informed Xing Tom to take as much chocolate as he can.

That night was a pleasant night for Xing Tom. With a chariot load of superior chocolates Xing Tom returned to the house where he was staying. ‘Take complete rest sir, we may have to proceed to the border tomorrow morning’ the soldier respectfully told Xing Tom left him alone.     

Xing Tom along with five soldiers and a chocolate load of chariot reached the border of the country. All the soldiers but one got down from the chariot and bowed Xing Tom respectfully. The chief among them informed Xing Tom that a soldier will accompany till he reaches his country.

After two hours of continuous journey, they reached a place which was steeper and looked odd. Xing Tom got down from the chariot to witness the place to explore the possibility of further travel. It was a vast land going steeper, and he could witness a broader sky over there which was blue and clear. There were no clouds, no birds and literally no one was there. 

Xing Tom decided to proceed further with the chocolate load of chariot along with the soldier riding the same.

There was a big steep and it was hard to move beyond that point which Xing Tom realized soon. The soldier whipped the horses hard and it went further by pulling the chariot hard. It has come to the end and beyond the point it was a deep valley and before the soldier try to stop but in vain. They chariot fell from the height to the infinite depth.

When Xing Tom opened his eyes, he was surprised to find himself in a bed. A doctor and a nurse were besides him. ‘Hi Xing Tom, how are you?’ the doctor inquired softly.

Robert, Xing Tom’s dad came inside and touched the hand of Xing Tom. ‘How are you my son?’ he spoke to him with affection. He explained Xing Tom that he met with an accident when he was riding his bi cycle and was unconscious all these days.

‘That means the Chocolate kingdom, the King and the chariot load of chocolates; all these are just my dream. How sad it is?’ Xing Tom sighed.

The next day when Xing Tom started from the hospital and reached home he was surprised to find a big parcel as big as himself, was lying in his room, colorfully wrapped. He went closer and opened it swiftly.’ Wow, so much of chocolates, how nice it is?’ he shouted aloud. Inside the parcel he found one beautiful card where it was signed like this. ‘A loving gift from the Chocolate King to a beautiful soul, Xing Tom’.

Xing Tom-The adventure with Chocolate King




Part-1

Xing Tom was forcefully pulling that Swiss chocolate bar from Sara. Both Xing Tom and his sister Sara are fond of chocolates and if it is going to be Toblerone, the world’s best Swiss chocolate, what will happen next, I just leave it to the readers’ imagination.

Robert, Xing Tom’s dad had to intervene to stop the fight and make a settlement for this issue. As per his peace pact, both agreed to share the chocolate equally, however irritating it may be for both of them.

Suddenly something attracted Xing Tom, who was quietly sitting in his room. ‘Yes, it’s the aroma of cardamom tea! Mum must be preparing at the kitchen ‘he shouted with joy. Within five minutes he was served the steamy tea neatly arranged in a tray along with his favorite biscuits by the maid. Suddenly it occurred to Xing Tom that his life seemed so wonderful and so good to lead. ‘Yes, at winter the need of steamy tea is obvious to warm up oneself’ he thought.

Though he was enjoying the moments with simple pleasures, his mind was seriously thinking about the adventure of the lifetime. This very thought thrilled him as such he suddenly took his bicycle and started riding in full speed.  It is the general idea of the grownups to undermine young ones and Xing Tom earnestly wished to make this belief wrong. Xing Tom often wanted to prove he is right posed adventurous and remained undaunted to face any ordeal. With this very idea he pedaled his bicycle aiming to go faster than his thoughts.

Suddenly his cycle stopped with a screech in front of the big Iron Gate. The Gate was in a closed position and there was no one to guard.  A button besides the pillar of the gate sounded like a calling bell. He looked around and found there no one except him and he was all alone.  He could hear the feeble sound of a Church bell at a distance.  Xing Tom decided to press the bell and did so with certain amount of courage. While the gate immediately opened with a big sound, a piece of that calling bell went towards the ground. Xing Tom swiftly made a catch before it touched the ground and found that the falling piece was a delicious chocolate.   In amazement he started chewing and found that it was very tasty.

Inside the gate the view was so spectacular, as there was a vast area of lawn made the place greener and far away, at a distance, there was the sight of old castle, in a triangular shape, standing tall. The garden was like any other type of garden, yet it differed only in its fragrance. There was some sort of chocolate smell that filled the nose.  There was thick green grass carpeted the place where both the sides nice plants were arranged. Those plants were bearing different shaped fruit like substance which was hanging on the plants. Xing Tom went to have a closer look at the plant and was really surprised to see there was many chocolates of different shapes were hanging on the plants. He picked one and started eating.’ Oh very tasty’ he shouted with joy. Xing Tom couldn’t believe his own eyes. For one chocolate he and Sara were fighting the previous day. ‘Now here is amazing garden of chocolate yielding plants’ he told himself at a low voice.

Chocolates everywhere, this very thought excited Xing Tom verily. This made him to run, and jump and even made him to sing a song with joy. Suddenly, there was certain fear that alerted him. ‘What, if any one comes here’ he told at a feeble voice. When he looked at those chocolate plants again, his fear vanished. ‘For the sake of these lovely chocolates, I can face any ordeals’ he shouted with confidence. Xing Tom almost tasted a variety of chocolates which he plucked from various plants that lined up at the right side of the ground. Each was in different shape, in white and brown colors, even the taste was different.  He collected the chocolates as much as he could and sighed for not bringing a bag to carry those chocolates. With all this, life suddenly turned so good for him.

Xing Tom moved further towards the old castle that was standing tall. He has to cross few peculiar trees to reach the castle. Those trees are broader and stronger, still looked odd than the regular trees. He just stopped by a big tree which was in brown color. He tapped the on his hand and found it was real hard. When he scrapped at the surface of the tree through his finger nail he got a wax like substance. When he tasted, he was amazed to note that it was real chocolate, delicious indeed.’ The whole tree is a chocolate’ he exclaimed.

Xing Tom looked around and found many such trees near the castle. He is almost near the castle and it is quiet visible now. The castle was in a triangular shape built tall with transparent glasses as windows. There was a big door which, when he pushed opened with a bang. It was a spacious hall in square shape where many ornamental chairs were placed at the corner. There were many rooms at the end of the hall in a closed position. Literally there was no one and some sort of deadly calm reigned that place. It was a sight of bewilderment and slowly fear started engulfing Xing Tom. ‘It must be a strange place with strange trees and strange castle’ he thought.

‘Is anybody there?’ Xing Tom shouted. There was no response for a while. Suddenly the doors of the rooms situated at the extreme end of the hall opened.  Many tiny people in the height of two to three feet appeared from the room and marched towards Xing Tom. All of them appeared in different shapes but same height.  Each looked like a chocolate and it’s true it looks as if the chocolates are alive. 

There were around fifty chocolate soldiers who came close and surrounded Xing Tom, the adventure boy. They all were carrying tiny gun like object. Now Xing Tom has the opportunity to see them at a closer look. He froze in surprise as all of them are chocolates look like tiny humans. One of them came forward and spoke to Xing Tom in a course voice. He started talking at length. ‘Who are you Biggy? How did you encroach in our Chocolate Castle? This land of Chocolaty is not for strangers like you! Are you a spy? If so, who sent you?’ He fired the questions like bullet shots. Suddenly a net fell on him and he was wrapped and carried by all of them to a remote place.
