The magic of the past Is technology of the present The riddles of yesterday Have been solved today The lock that secured our past Its key we hold today Its time for successful handover To pave way For the future that beckons
I dont think you are political ! yet it looks like you wrote the verse on behalf of Modi for Advani !! :D I am sorry, I have a very limited vocabulary and all the words synonymous to awesome have been used by me for your writing skills. Henceforth, i will mention everything else . Take it by default that your awesome poetess.
Yes you are right, I am neutral ;) lol You shouldnt be sorry, I appreciate your perspective, its good when different ways of looking at a thing comes out...thats what writing and sharing our thoughts are supposed to do.. create multiple viewpoints and thats what I like in you as a doodler... yoe see things in a different light :) Thanx Jack!
You mean to say! Kal Aaj Aur Kal..... Successful! Great thoughts indeed. Unfortunately everybody is trying to steal that key rather than handing over to the future generations!.
Kal aaj aur kal, yes definitely!! Yes thats the sad fact but the good thing is that a timely reminder should keep coming for the change we wish to see, for a future we want... Thanx :)
First time here, so thanks for posting to Real Toads! Love your blog setup, BTW.
I don't know how old you are, but you write with great depth and wisdom. Too bad the oldsters are often too greedy to hand over that key... or perhaps we aren't teaching our young ones the right lessons in order to be entrusted with the key?
Thoughtful, beautifully written. Loved it, and peace to you, Amy
Great writing Kislaya! Passing the baton is not an easy ritual! They turn out to be either not ready or are irresponsible later. These are not easy to determine in the beginning! Nicely!
Wow...loved the simplicity and also how many interpretations it can have.Yes indeed "its time for a successful handover ...To pave way...For the future that beckon". Re-quoting this as a parent!
Yes any piece of work or art is successful when it is open to multiple interpretations, that leads to more richness and more creativity and new thoughts. Thanx :)
Wow wonderfully conceptualized revealing the contemporary bard in you. Poetry is something I normally don't comprehend but this one was very deep and inspiring and thought provoking. Keep up the good work.
Love the way the poem flows through time Kislaya. If only the mind could transition so smoothly, life would be more beautiful that the blessing it already is...
its simple yet really good. i loved ow you mixed the past present and future with so little words. its precise and skillful poetry. keep it going. god bless. :)

ReplyDeleteI dont think so, changes are rapid for everyone, some get accustomed quickly and some take time :)
Deleteit's very deep.....deeper that it appears at the first glance...I would need to get a scuba diving training to access that depth :)
ReplyDeletePS- You are one of those rare poets i have come across whose poems carry that power without making exaggerated use of heavy words. (Y)

Can't keep up with technology--always a few steps behind, but by the time I buy it, it's a lot cheaper!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha, many a times we all do that, but then the craving for new technology is never satiated!
DeleteHow beautiful it would be if we all thought the same and unlocked a magical future :) Thanks for sharing...

Old and young has nothing to do with maturity I guess, understanding n experience counts.
