ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ.....

ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಸಹಿಸುತಲಿದ್ದೆ ,
ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಊಹಿಸುತಲಿದ್ದೆ,
ಎಲ್ಲಿದ್ದವೋ ಈ ಎಣಿಕೆಗೆ ಸಿಗದಷ್ಟು ಕಷ್ಟ
ಸಾಯಿಸದೆ, ಬದುಕಲೂ ಬಿಡದೆ
ಗಂಟಲನ್ನು ಕುಯ್ಯುತ್ತಿವೆ!!

ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಕ್ಷಮಿಸುತಲಿದ್ದೆ ,
ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ ತಿಳಿ ಹೇಳುತಲಿದ್ದೆ ,
ಎಲ್ಲಿದ್ದವೋ ಇಷ್ಟೊಂದು ಹಿತ ಶತ್ರುಗಳ  ಒಕ್ಕೊರಲು
ಉರಿಯುಲೂ ಬಿಡದೆ, ವಾಸಿಯೂ ಮಾಡದೆ
 ಹಸಿ ಗಾಯಕ್ಕೆ ಉಪ್ಪು ಸುರಿಯುತ್ತಿವೆ !!

ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಕಲಿಯುತಲಿದ್ದೆ,
ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಅಣಿಗೊಳಿಸುತಲಿದ್ದೆ ,
ಎಲ್ಲಿದ್ದವೋ ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದು ಕೆಲಸ ನಾರಿಗೆ
ಒಂದನ್ನೂ ಮುಗಿಸದೆ, ಮತ್ತೊಂದನ್ನು ಶುರುಮಾಡಲು ಬಿಡದೆ
ಬೆಂಬಿಡದೆ ಕಾದು  ಕೂತಿವೆ !!

ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ  ಸುಮ್ಮನಿರುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ,
ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ  ಹಾರಿಕೆಯ ನಗುವಿಡುತ್ತಿದೆ,
ಎಲ್ಲಿದ್ದರೋ ಕಾಲೆಳೆಯುವ ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದು ಮಂದಿ,
ಮಾತನಾಡಲೂ ಬಿಡದೆ, ತಾವೂ ಮಾತನಾಡದೆ
ಮೌನಕ್ಕೆ ಶರಣಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ!!

ಒಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಸುಮ್ಮನಿರುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ
ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ ಇಣುಕಿ ನೋಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ,
ಎಲ್ಲಿದ್ದವೋ ಇಷ್ಟೊಂದು whatsapp messages
ಯಾವ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನೂ ಮಾಡಲು ಬಿಡದೆ, ನಿರ್ಲಕ್ಷಿಸಲೂ ಬಿಡದೆ
ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಹಿಡಿದು ಕೂರಿಸಿವೆ :-) :-)

Unlock The Wardrobe!!

Washing machine seemed whispering to the tap with a wicked smile - "Same faded ones" The tap appeared saying  -"once again??" with a wrinkled eyebrows! Detergent was crying "These are already faded - how can I make them fader again?" I looked at the clothes I was dumping to wash They appeared talking "how nice the ones resting in hangers" We are the ones kept lying half folded for easy access! we are picked directly from the string where we will be still drying said the other! They seemed questioning "Why we are being used the whole day??" I am missing the perfume sprinkled cozy partners said the machine! still waiting for the colorful ones to treat them better! I am in awe with the freedom they get beach washed in machine and sun-soaked dance in air to get themselves dry up! Little did they know how lockdown felt!

Corona Lockdown - Day 35 - 28th April 2020

It was a good day. Cloudy day and the day was filled with many activities. Many a time we think we are inside the home and are locked down and are not going out these days. But the new positive possibilities are hidden at this time. I am putting myself a few questions. Am I learning anything related to the field of my work? Am I giving my dedicated time to people in my world? Am I doing the things I have been hidden under the carpet many times? There are many more queries inside, are we giving a separate dedicated time for answering each query that we had within. Time to analyze and retrospect our own self. My day looked like this. Breakfast: Veg pullav Lunch: Had the same I made for breakfast as it was pending. Dinner: Chapathi, dum aloo, and pudina chutney. Dessert: Egg pudding Meditation: I did complete only the evening meditation session today. I had an important call at noon so I couldn't attend. Work out: Liking this time now. As I usually take up in the evening p...
