Books, Food & Travel Diaries - Introduction

Hello! Welcome to my new blog. This blog is for those who love to read books, try different restaurants and most importantly to travel, make plans for a future trip and wants to know more information about different destinations. The reasons I decided to start writing blogs are: to remember the places I have visited in my lifetime and also to help people like me who search a lot in google to fix on one destination and read a lot about that place to make the best travel plans. In this page, I will write about one place at a time and all the information I know about it. Sometimes it might be about an entire country or about certain "must see destinations". All the information that I write here, will be from my point of view and totally based on my experience. Hope you get a good read. Happy travelling!

Forgive me Wasp

Winter is now far away, Still cold it is when the spring came its way. Finally the sun shone again, Windows are wide open to let warm air in. Fruits in kitchen are fast ripening, Fiery wasps found its way in. Scared me away whenever I saw one, The fear grew day by day though no harm was done. Rain didn't stop for two days long, Windows are closed a wasp was trapped alone. A little happy I was when I saw one dead, But more happy was I, when my orchid began to bud. Little did I know, The wasp came in for my plant to grow. Every morning the baby flower I saw, Regret for my happiness on that dead wasp made me low. A thousand times, I apologize for my ignorance, Will remember you whenever a flower spreads its fragrance. Forgive me Wasp!!

The Magic Powder

Looking at the giant rollercoaster Fascinated by the adventure it could give Feared I stood beneath it with a shivering hand Never dared to take a step forward. Felt a touch on my hands Pulling me to the coaster seats It was all in a seconds act I did not know with whom I was. Confused I didn't know where to look at Shakes the coaster when choked to start There were no buckels to keep me intact But somehow I felt I am safe. Coaster moved slow, peacefully on the night I could see those stars with her king, the moon Some were moving fast, some were slow to take shapes Coaster took me near them So far that I could touch them Looking down I saw the river Caressing the stones making them feel light. Fragrance of the flowers were enchanting They were all smiling at me, waving at me Curves on my lips widened, turned to giggle So happy I was, fearless I was. I was breathing nature, feeling nature Simple they looked, magical I felt

Lost

I don't know I don't know where he's been all these days Many times It's been many years since we have met Every night I talk a lot to him through my dreams Hugging the wall I cry all day to calm myself I've been living in an imaginary world(2) I don't know (2) I don't know where he's been all these days It's been many years since we have met I talk a lot to him through my dream I cry all day to calm myself I don't know (2) I don't know where he's been all these days - I miss

Alone

I closed my eyes to see You, like you promised me But I see no one around me.. I roam in those places where We usually plan to meet And I see no one around me.. I dream of those memories Of moments with you and me Now I see no one around me.. Sometimes I feel happy For no reason, maybe 'Cos I felt you around me.. Staring at the sky I plead Begging you not to leave me 'Cos I feel no one around me... -I wish..

Forever

To the ocean and the sun Who knows the reason for the numb Take a look in this gentleman Beside me, say now you see me happy. He has come back for his love Just like every now and the Like an angel who bring the fun To my life, to keep me happy. We met four years back in June In a rainy day all alone On the rocks of the seashore We made love, he made me happy. Each time we got close So close to each other  Our eyes filled full of tears We smile, 'cos we are happy. We never plan to meet again 'Cos we know we surely would And we part with a lovely hug So passionately, with a promise to stay happy... -to my love
