A LESSON TO LEARN



                     



I am a banyan tree.

I have grown big and tall.

Many sit below me to meditate.

Many share their problems sitting in my shade.

Many lives live on my roots, branches and leaves.

And everyone wonders how I manage to give solace to all of these.

But they all forget to see the obvious.

However big I may be,

I stay connected to the soil,

I stay connected to my roots,

Whenever in doubt I send an aerial root to the ground

And the soil answers my doubt.

I am known as the tree of wisdom,

A tree of life.

For I always remain in touch with my soil.

PENCIL SKETCHING



Last year in December I started doing sketches again.The last time I did sketches were during my architecture collage days when every week we had to do certain  number of sketches.Before that it was in school days when I used to go to a drawing class and did portraits in pencil and charcoal.During that time I had done many sketches and had many sketch books but all those books became clutter and were disposed of which today I regret.I don’t know what I enjoy more sketches or portraits.This activity keeps me very busy and I enjoy doing it. Presenting a few of the  sketches and portraits done by me.

PALKE

पलके उठा के देखिये तो जरा.                                                              
 मेरी आँखे तुमसे कुछ केहेना चाहे .                                                    
इतनी भीड़ में, मे कैसे कहु .
मेरी दिल कि बात वो बताना चाहे .
आँखें तो दिल कि तरफ जाने का दरवाज़ा है,
दो प्यार कि नज़रे मिले तो कभी दरवाज़ा खुलभी जाये.
पलके उठा के देखिये तो जरा,
शायद हम दोनोको एक दूसरे के दिल में रहने को जगह मिल जाये.

लिना पटेल




Palke utha ke dekhiye to jara
Meri ankhe tumse kuch kehena chahe.
Itni bheed mein, me kaise kahu,
Meri dil ki baat vo batana chahe.
Ankhe to dil ki taraf jaane ka darwaza hai.
Do pyaar ki nazare meele to kabhi  darwaza khul bhi jaye.
Palke utha ke dekhiye to jara,
Shayad hum dono ko ek dusare ke dil mein rahane ko jagaha mil jaye.
