Chavi.

Seen her-learnt her; Awed her-mocked her;
Followed her-Cursed her; Borne her-killed her;
Shouldered her-Damned her; Made her-broke her;
Revered her-Mothered her; Loved her-abhorred her.
Seen her-Been her;
She is nature, no more-no less;

Agni - her identity!

Seen,
Fury- her trusted weapon wringing the neck of those selfish serpents that attempt to poison her fervent dreams.

Anger- the volcano setting ablaze her grit to fight the illogical protocols of the society that scribble filth on the colorful sketches of her aspirations.

Angst- an unrest infuriating the inner calm to sail her through the crippled situations that she seeks to rebel against, but gives up on, during moments of weariness.

Arrogance-the mask she has meticulously fabricated to scare away the ugly that take advantage of humility that defines her.

A Silent wail, a single teardrop that floods her noisy heart filling the pores that smile seldom fails to fill.

Recalcitrant, she is not. You made her thus.


Salil-her identity.

Like,
A rippling stream- a silent knowledge of her banal self and a realization of the heights she seeks to conquer.

The roaring flood- a rebellion born somewhere, a point from where she sees no return, vehemence that frenzies her mind to transcend all standards.

A nostalgic drizzle- the coquettish warmth that effeminates her soul and enfold tranquility every single moment;in her life and others.

The passionate rain- a gift of sensuality and wild that maddens her man on those together nights.

A singular stream- an arduous path that the search of knowledge drives her to traverse; giving life and energy to those fellow travelers.

An ocean of emotions-that exhilarate the feeling of being; and daze her, as she sees everything in the nothingness of self & others.


Pawan-her identity.

Forming,
A musical zephyr- flirting with their ruffled hair, humming a favorite melody ,giving divine solace when her kin is in obnoxious pain.

A violent sandstorm-blinding the eyes, numbing their conviction, betraying her own goodness when in war with the foe, the contorted.

A magical breeze- married to moist in the air, a tender petal with a silken touch calming the muffled tears of her loved one.


Aakash –her identity.

In the,
Vastness- accommodating the sunshine & dusk; the blues, white& oranges; the crescent and the growing.

Adorable Grace- an amazing poise and level headedness that she exhibits when confronted with the muddling puzzles of life.

In her grandeur-the mesmerizing splendor and pride she displays as she nurtures a life; fostering her own unquenchable thirst for learning and living in her child.

Ela-her identity.

Displaying,
Forbearance illimitable- loving the deformed &offensive, the insulting &cynical, the hideous and unsightly;

Patience galore - at times a resignation when it is impossible, and others perseverance to break all barriers & may be a wait for eternity; to have her way.

A shocking tolerance –for heart wrenching sorrow, of devastating failures, of broken relationships, of betrayal and ‘games’ played.

A reverence- a silent respect and recognition of talent & turmoil, for humble & the egotist, of affection & compromises, for the old-fashioned & rebel.
Of their goals and hers,
Of their existence and hers.

Seen her-Been her!!
She is nature,No less-all the more.
