The rays of the sunshine kiss
Cutting through the murkiness of the 'hallowy' mist
Leading from darkness to light with a gallant fight
Easing its majesty which is worth a sight
Droplets of fireballs glaze through with a nonchalant kiss
The sight makes a million heart beats a miss
The rays simmering down with intensity of long lost love
Eager to own what had not been It's for a few hours passed
(Written a couple of months ago,at the dawn of a summer morning in Manchester which is usually round about 4.30a.m.....having not gone to bed yet and having nothing in particular to do!!!)

First
Its half a week short than 6 months since I landed in UK and one and half weeks short of 6 months that I reached Manchester.I must say that it has been a roller-coaster ride; one of its only kind that probably needs to be felt rather than explained...But I sat here to do the tedious,the otherwise inevitable or should that be the evitable thing of writing down a few things....
I do hope that at the end of this excerise I would be a better Writer....oh surely not going to compete with Kiran Desai(2006 Booker Prize Winner)...but then getting to the point....having friends like Rampy who have made wonderful blogs over the past few months and having been goaded into wrinting one for a long time I finally make my start.
The time was 13.00 hrs and AI 131(my aircraft)was queued up behind Virgin Atlantic also on its way from Mumbai to London Heathrow....As the Captain was giving details of how long the flight would be and how the extra few minutes would depend on the tail wind when air....My dad who was sitting beside me took the In-Flight magazine of Air-India :"Namaskaar" and opened it to a non-descirpt page....
The title of the page read.....The End of Education is Character.....He saw a guy in whites handing over a few food packets to an old lady....well that guy is none but Prof from MATHS...I could not remember his real name....as a matter of fact I still dont know many names in Parthi except for their nick names.......Well to get to the point...
My dad who was as puzzled as I was turned to the previous page and to his utter suprise saw a picture of Swami with one hand blesing and a beautiful smile on His lips....Droplets of tears rolled down my dad's cheeks as he passed on the magazine to me.....What else could I say but to remember what He has said many times.........
Nenu Meethodu Eppudu Entane,Ventane,Jantane Unntanu..........
