One day  I will walk up to you  and say - "Everything I told you was a lie." Would you believe me Or think I was honest enough to tell you that? Your love on trial. more...

Silver Threads and Drawstrings
As our poems convergeour sentences brim with parolesin this grim distance ofyour cornered roomand my paper walls secludedin my own skinI thought of your bodyas a costume and sashayed as a man of poetry for a whilefrom emptiness to doors of withdrawal,hotel suites and unfrequented tablesalthough afraid your wordsmight surface where i'd laid them asi... more...

The I in Silence

Schlock
Do not insinuate your sad preferences in black and white words of monochrome lives blind clangor and contrived voice. You beautiful poet don't need words these signifiers these loud paroles. Merely read my lines and fall asleep reprise in dreams that "words are cheap". more...

Prelude to Befores
With a little nudge from the elbows of reasoning and my own intuition i can safely conclude that Jesse and Celine the two obvious leads of the two classic movies Before Sunrise and Before Sunset do end up with each other eventually. There was quite a furore and people being curious about the ending although it never really occurred to my amnesiac m... more...

Weekend laughs
It suddenly dawned on me today that I have not been doing something that's an intrinsic part of my nature -- share the jokes I know. I just love jokes, and can be counted upon to rattle them off in sleep. So here goes my latest instalment of jokes, unfortunately none that I can lay intellectual ownershp of...*****"Guess what I heard today?" a man s...  more...

Making Space for SABBATH in our lives
Extracted the article from this week Catholic News, thought it would good to share with my iLand friends. A RECENT ARTICLE in Maclean's magazine reported on a study on Longevity. What is the secret for a long life? The article summarizes the results of years of scientific research on this question and ends with nine hints for a longer, healthier li...  more...

PRO LIFE OR QUALITY OF LIFE?
 Indian law needs to be amended. We have problems that must not be given a verdict on the rules laid down in 1820. The world we live in is not the same. Technology has progressed at a rapid rate in the last 100 years and each year has add-on dimensions to this that are mind-boggling. For example, we had no surrogate motherhood or test-tube babies t...  more...

May the road rise up to meet you;    May the wind always be at your back;    May the sun shine warm upon your face;    May the rain fall soft upon your fields.    And until we meet again may God hold you in the palm of his hand.    You’ve failed many times.  Although you may not remember.  You fell   down the first time you tried to walk.  You almo...  more...

Her eyes twinkled and she ran towards her and sa...  more...
