I Too Had a Dream....

The title is borrowed from an inspiring read by Gouri Salvi, on the life and times of Dr. Verghese Kurian of the milk revolution fame in India.The remaining lines are a mix of reality and some philosophical mish mash.If you are reading this, I am guessing you just woke up and are not really very awake to realize that it is afternoon and hunger time.I however remain true to Maslowian needs of primary desire for food and security...I am off for finding grub...:)

I Too Had a Dream

I too …..Had a dream….

I dreamt of ….doing good….

I dreamt of ……learning nice….

I dreamt of a life….. Not with a lot of strife….

Instead…I end up with conversations of the “quarter”…that no longer remind me of amber…

Hell…just of lot of fire and ember….

There is a lot of smoke…..With no sight of any screen…… or a window…

I stumble around …ending up with lot of body blows….….trying to find edges in a round room…

I too had a dream….

Maybe all this is just a phase….

Maybe I should get some loans…that would ease the pain…

Maybe…EMIs would inspire confidence…and remind of the net gain….

Maybe a weekend with a lot of females….

Might just....give a tiny bit of solace….

Then I realize…it is all just a dream….

And dreams are good to have….

But on a….. weekend mid morning….

Cornflakes and oats…really don’t suffice… :)



One of my friends had taken the trouble to read through the above and fill in her own thoughts in continuation.
I reproduce them below as I find it ...well relevant and nice :) 


""And when you have....... so many dreams.....within your heart...
They will be loud enough........ to be heard from the skies.....
Though you would feel that..... you are waiting...and just dreaming...
Your dreams.... are taking the time to travel from the heavens...
They come .....wrapped in colorful clouds..
With a signature.."Thanks for waiting my my dear son"...
With Love ......Your own GOD ""
