Chaos and calmness

Painting by Mrignaynee

I wonder if the only way 

Is to embrace the chaos 

And drown deep into it. 

Trust the ocean to finally 

Wash me off onto the 

Shore of infinite calmness. 

Only to realize later that the

Calmness is not of the shore, 

But of the scars chaos forged.

Colourblind in a black and white world!

Dhriti, around her second birthday

In a world of 

Black and white 

I was afraid if I was 

Colourblind, for 

All that I saw was 

Shades of grey. 

With you coming 

Into the world, I 

Cherish my blindness; 

As you flood me 

In an ocean of 

Infinite colours!
