The Christmas Gift

" And thereafter the Genie granted Ali's wish. He ran into the ground to catch miraculous and extremely tiny white candies. The moment he caught them, they melted. It was a game. A game he had never played before.  Genie watched the evolving happiness on Ali's face. Now the Genie's account had turned empty. There were no more wishes to be granted. He had fulfilled his term on this earth. It was his last to grant somebody happiness. He would then move back to 'Parilok'.  Ali looked up and opened up his mouth wide. He could feel the cold porous candies into his mouth. Soon after, by the evening, the ground transformed into the view of an unbroken sheet of white.

The Childhood Sound

Experienced a different morning after so many good days as I woke up. And I woke up peacefully Without any hustle and bustle in mind Without thinking what's gonna happen today With an empty mind,  I woke up. And with this emptiness in my mind I'm ready to grasp Ready to perceive Ready to learn Whatever nature brings about For with the greenery in my heart I woke up. No rush,  no crowd, smiling at the day,  I woke up Greeting the time,  but Wishing to stop it For I never want these days To end up,  I woke up. Once more I can hear the birds sing And the water flow For with nature's song in my heart I woke up. Moved outside Cool breeze mingling with my hair locks Near the truth Far from lies With new dreams in my eyes I woke up....
