Water

 Water

A restless spirit, ever free,
From mountain peak to deepest sea.
It tumbles down in silver threads,
Through ancient rocks and riverbeds.
A gentle mist, a sudden shower,
It nourishes each leaf and flower.

The silent force that carves the stone,
A whispered secret, softly known.
In frozen crystal, still and bright,
Reflecting back the morning light.
Then melts and flows, a liquid grace,
Leaving no trace, no lasting space.
It quenches thirst, a vital sip,
Upon a traveler’s parched lip.
It cradles ships on ocean wide,
And pulls the rhythm of the tide.
A mirror to the endless sky,
Where clouds like silent giants lie.

From dewdrop on a spider's web,
To currents in a mighty ebb.
It sings a song, a timeless tune,
Beneath the sun, beneath the moon.
The giver of all life, so pure,
A constant blessing, ever sure.

 Ruskin Bond Ruskin Bond, a name synonymous with the serene hills of Mussoorie and the innocent joys of childhood, stands as a towering figure in Indian English literature. For over seven decades, his prolific pen has woven tales that resonate with a gentle wisdom, a profound love for nature, and an unwavering belief in the magic of the ordinary.

His unique literary voice, characterized by its simplicity, warmth, and evocative imagery, has carved a special niche, making him a beloved author across generations and a cherished chronicler of the Indian landscape and its unassuming inhabitants. Born in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh, in 1934, Bond’s early life was marked by a peripatetic existence, moving between various tow...

Time is a thief with no face

 Time is a thief with no face, no footsteps, and no tell-tale jingle of keys. It doesn't break down your door or smash a window; it simply slips in, an invisible current, and siphons away moments, days, and years. You rarely notice it in the act, only in the aftermath, when you reach for something that was once vibrant and full, only to find it faded, diminished, or utterly gone. It steals the bloom from a rose, leaving behind brittle, brown edges. It lifts the laughter from a child's eyes, replacing it with the quiet wisdom of age. It pilfers the sharp edges of grief, softening them into a dull ache, and then, eventually, into a memory you have to strain to recall. It's a master of illusion, making the present feel endless while simultaneously whisking away the past. You try to guard your treasures, to hold onto the golden hours. You build forts of routine, walls of intention, but time, the faceless thief, flows through every crevice. One moment you're basking in the w...
