Another side of Samsara??

Sam bro,
The flow is there, feelings are there, enjoyed reading it. Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work.

Is the market doing that badly that you actually found time to get pensive and write some poetry? LOL! Joking. Good going.

Maverick, in case you hadn't noticed, I've been posting a few of my original materials every now and then.  Too bad you've just come across my first...BTW, my previous original articles and stories are all masquerading in some unknown limbo of sajha's labyrinth.  Thanks for reading, nevertheless.

Comcast, my dear friend from SB.  Thanks for dropping by and showering a few words of support.  As always it's an honor to be appreciated by someone who's as smart as myself (or just a tiny bit less).    My regards to the Professor and Tom Cruise, who I presume still prefers their "kalo" nicks (so I guess there's gonna be no comments from them).  Unfortunately, I've been banned from SB, so ya'll will never see me there again ...I asked San to "suck on my long one" (exact words).  Was joking, but I guess he took it seriously.

Haddock bro, as per my post the other day, it takes about a hundred posts to get my creative juices flowing and it surprisingly did today.  BTW, with the way the Indexes have been taking a beating recently, its about time I began looking for a new job...Being a bartender has always fascinated me and it'd go perfectly with my partying life-style (don't wanna be too late for it as I still got about a decade left for a full head of hair...I hope).  Hope the day when I own my own isn't too far...A round of drinks on me then.

Let us hope Samsara's words echo like this afar
Impressed I am with such strong words from an Elve
Resist the temptation to leave that door of hatred ajar
I am a bit curious, exactly for whom do you delve?

Great Job Sam!!
P.S. The elf is because i couldn't think of anything better. I am not a poet myself. All in jest.

Sam Bro,

Finally, came across a thread which happened to be started by you. As if that was not a surprise enough, I was doubly flabbergasted to actually see the Samsara write a poem. Wonderful one though which has its meaning, mood and message crystal clear "Believe in living life in the moment"  

Thanks for sharing sam,, and i was also hoping you would finish the story you started couple of months ago.. but i guess its long gone from ur memory!! I immensely enjoy reading stories in sajha,, and,, "to be continued.. " tag kills me specially when they don't finish it!! Anyways hopefully all is well for you and we shall miss you in SB..

jashmine..

Samsaraji, I've never read such intense poem before. So concise, so compact, and yet so visual. These are the things which are very self-evident, but always ignored.You truly are gifted. I wonder why you keep your creative chamber(literary) idle most of the time. You should activate it more often.
The poem has more punch in the beginning than in the later verses. The first verse, exactly my thoughts Samsaraji.

"Ah, all our human lives spent being cast and molded to fit in

A plaster applied to an unfinished product camoflaging itself

Nothing so much that we ask for ourselves from within

But brought about solely by the ones who on our behalf delve"

Admirer of your many personalities.

P.S. You know you are lucky tonight. Superhero is in good mood. Otherwise not every poem is going to get this much attention.

"Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer, And without sneering teach the rest to sneer; Willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike, Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike; Alike reserved to blame, or to commend, A tim'rous foe, and a suspicious friend."
 Praise do have different effects:one of them is it makes a fool more arrogant, turning his weak brain giddy.
Sammy bhoy,keep the balls rollin anyway!!!!!!

 

FF, good to see ya.  You call a lion an elf?  BTW, great work on your take on my poem and penning down your original verse in the same A-B-A-B format.  Great seeing you here.

Sahayog, the smartest 21 year ol kid in sajha, you're here too?  Always a pleasure running across you in sajha, SB and FB.  And yeah, I do write poems every now and then when I get bored with nothing much going around...An idle mind they say is the devils' wo.....

Jashmine, thanks for the dropping by and leaving a few words here.  Yeah, the story I'd posted a few months ago had its last part remaining but due to reasons I felt was strongly descriptive in nature, it wouldn't have been appropriate for the environment in sajha (especially since it was a true story and the people involved were REAL characters).  Two months ago, I'd taken out the first 2 parts to the story and also any remaining morsel mentioning names outta the forum for good.  I regret that you were kept waiting for so long.  Here's a smile to cheer you up

Superhero, nice nick!  As long as you don't wear your undies outside your pants, alls cool!   I'm glad that you loved the poem and I hope that I shall be able to meet up to your level of expectations every time I post up another poem here (when the mood to create such pieces comes about)...Pray that the markets get real bad again so I could pen down something when I'm sitting on my desk doing nothing...Defn not good for me, but atleast it'd be akin to providing community service to the folks here.  Also, thanks a gazillion for the comment, my dear friend.

Elusivecat, you should post your weak rhymes on this forum too so I could leave a few comments on it myself.  BTW, thanks for the support.  However, this still does not mean I support your Maoist supporting views, my commie comrade.  

 

Well Sammie,u already know u did a good job,n thumbs up to ur quality of letting ppl's quality out....everyone's given that little bit extra here..u must be happy bout it...Cheers!!!
