Another POS!!!

Your capacity to churn out poems which resemble the contents of the small intestine never ceases to amaze me...

:)

Regards!

Aamir #1161 You are doing fine. No need to apologize when discussing beauty. And what better way to cross the magic number than discussing the beauties of konkini women (whatever that means). Perhaps you could shed more light on who these konkini people are (konkini kon kon haiN)?

Zehra #27:

Haven`t had time to read all your submissions but did read the ones you mentioned. Really liked ``Touch``. Beautiful - very sensuous. So was ``The Temptress...`` actually. In fact, a lot of eroticism in that one. For a moment I thought maybe the whole story was symbolic. Or was it?

AH #28:

haha.. you make it sound as if you`re asking me when was it I lost my virginity. Who said anything about losing their childhood? I might have reached my fourth layer (might even be past it for all I know) but am still very much a (messed up?) child inside. Still learning - LONG way to go. :)

Pankaj #29 From your posts it seems you are doing fine. It may seem strange how God would care about one individual out of 6 billion on earth at this time, in one lonely planet out of many. But you probably know from your understanding of elementary particle physics (or in any other field like genetics or astronomy), stranger things that most people dont dream of even today are quite possible.

Awakening Hopeful #9:

Remember this one?

FORGOTTEN LANGUAGE

Once I spoke the language of the flowers,

Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,

Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,

And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.

Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets,

And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow,

Once I spoke the language of the flowers...

How did it go?

How did it go?

It`s from ``Where the Sidewalk Ends``. Yes, they do make more sense now. Oh, and you`re welcome. (btw - this is in reference to your post on the other board) Hey, cheer up! This might help: (from ``Falling Up``)

SNOWBALL

I made myself a snowball

As perfect as could be.

I thought I`d keep it as a pet

And let it sleep with me.

I made it some pajamas

And a pillow for its head.

Then last night it ran away,

But first - it wet the bed.

(I used to crack up everytime I read this - as a child that is :))

Re: Tahmed

And please keep YLH on that side of the LC. In fact if you promise to keep him there, you can have Sonali Bendre as well!

Re: Tahmed 1100

Yaar I will make that deal anyday! OK... give me all the captains in your team

Anwar

Younis

Akram

Latif

Inzi

Judging by the fact that a lazy unimaginative dope like Azhar is the winningest captain in Indian history... Inzi will break all records if he ever captained India!

In the meanwhile you keep Aishwaria... we have an abundance of these cavorting starlet types.

Zehra:

It`s a beautiful poem. Really liked the style - the rythm conveyed the erratic nature of the feelings so well. And they seem so honest and spontaneous. Haven`t had the chance to read your other stuff - this poem has made me want to.

SameerJB #18

If you are dumb, I am dumber….:)
Spell binding stuff by Ghulam Farid…. Saraiki, by the way, is one of my favorite languages…can’t speak it, but I do understand it a little bit…the reason…. well, you would know anyway….right? saraiki zakirs?

The only thing I have ever heard by pathana khan is mayda ishk ve tooN mayda yaar ve tooN.. also by Ghulam Farid – I think?

#18 Posted by sadna on October 14, 2000 12:23:29 am
I am in the `I know what I like` category of poetry appreciation :-).

And I know I liked this poem a whole lot, sp
``It`s not that you
Told me I was and I
Believed it,
It was more. A feeling that these things
Are my due.``

And

``It`s a beautiful day outside. I wish I could carry
Your voice with me
Today, if not you.``

Thanks,
Sadhana
