Cupid's Broken Arrow

Cupid's arrow seems to be broken

Its aim is off on who it is poking

He promised that loves truth was ahead

Took out his weapon and aimed at my head

I closed my eyes and giggled in glee

Finally love was to happen to me

Directions must have been misread

It seems my dog was shot instead

Once she was pierced

Her loyalties shifted

Now onto the partner that cupid pre-gifted

She used to run around with mutts

Now with my man that bitch struts

My baby's been shot and he cannot see

His partner's a dog…

It’s supposed to be me!

Today he walked her down my street

Her tail in the air; she walked with conceit

I screamed out the window as the two walked below

"She's not what she seems, She's just a missed bow.

I waited a lifetime for you to pursue, she'll never love you the

way that I do"

There was no catching my sweetheart's ear

Obsessed with my pet since shot by loves spear

Though cupid's intentions did come from his heart

He forgot to pretest his component part

Loves truth was promised and did lay ahead

But my cage is empty and so is my bed

Riki - The dog and Me -the Human

A promise that will last forever...  It was third week of November 2003. I was recovering from relapsed Malaria and pneumonia and had returned to my parent’s place from Navi Mumbai. My then husband turned up one early evening and surprised me with a gift. The gift was a cute little black Labrador retriever puppy of less than 3 months of age. (November 20, 2003) I always wanted a dog but my parent’s understanding of responsibility had always denied acceptance of a dog. We had fish and birds but a dog was too much. I had dreamt that when I will grow up I will get myself a German shepherd and my ex-husband always had dreamt of having a black lab. So obviously he picked up a black lab. When the puppy came home, my first reaction was, "ohh my baby is here!" Day one On day one, this pup sat near the chair which was like ten times his size, six months later he found that the space beneath this chair can be his hideout when a bath is called upon, and a year lat...

How got Leh'd Part Three (10 August - 12 August 2014)

10th August:  It was a good morning as it I could get up leisurely and get ready. We packed all luggages and kept in the guest house’s cloak room. (There were barely two big backpacks technically.) Today, I was well prepared with motion sickness tablet. We set ourselves in the SUV and picked up 2 Austrian girls Viktoria and Christa. They were on long vacation to India. We withdrew some money as we did not have any bookings made at the Nubra Valley. Our driver Dorje was a middle aged man, who claimed to be an ex-army. Jolly good fellow. He was fun to chat and seemed to be experienced as he knew how to handle 4 girls. Khardung La is barely 40 km from Leh. And most of the road to Khardung La overlooks Leh city. Shanti Stupa looked glorious in soft sunlight. Now, we were gaining altitude rapidly and I was haunted by the memories of Kargil war and Formula One car at Khardung La. Every time, we drove past the Army Officers, a feeling of regret, shame and pride kept revolving in my...

कुंडलिका - सावळ-घाट १९ - २० एप्रिल २०१४

एकदा डोंगरात जायची  चटक लागली  की चढाई -उतराई हि नियमित चालूच राहते. तशी आमची ही चढाई -उतराई चालूच होती, परंतु सगळे धोपट मार्गी ट्रेक्स केल्यामुळे काही  विशेष कामगिरी केल्याचे समाधान मिळत नव्हते. म्हणूनच आम्ही अनोख्या  ट्रेकच्या शोधत होतो. कुशलच्या सुपीक डोक्यातून अनेक कल्पना बाहेर पडत होत्या परन्तु उन्हाळ्याचे निमित्त करून आम्ही त्या परतवून लावत होतो.  अखेर एक दिवस, कुशलने ब्रह्मास्त्र काढले आणि सगळे या लाटेवर स्वार झाले. मुळशी जवळ असलेल्या, कुंडलिका नदीचे मूळ शोधण्याच्या उपक्रमात सामील व्हायला आम्ही सगळे उत्सुक होतो.  तसे या वर्षामधले बहुतेक treks घाई-घाईत झालेले असल्यामुळे हा trek तरी थोडा निवांत असावा असे आम्ही ठरविले.  सर्वात प्रथम या भागाची माहिती काढण्याचे काम सुरु झाले. चढाई - उतराई या  पुस्तकामधून बरीच माहिती मिळाली. कुशलने हा trek आधी ३ वेळा केला असल्यामुळे त्याला बऱ्यापैकी माहिती होती.  हा ट्रेक off -beat  असल्यामुळे आम्ही जास्त लोक नको हे ठरवले, तरी हो - ना करतकरत १६ जणाची  team शनिवारी रात्र...
