Documentation...

A time comes when we are asked to choose, between sour & sweet, between right & wrong, between the devil & the angel, between Life & Death…
When it concerns your life, along with others’ life, its nothing but strife, or is it otherwise???

Specialize in patient care,
That is, if I may dare,
They say there is need,
They now want to pay heed
Get along your experience
In a document form
Get along your 'perseverance'
& share what’s in your palm

Yes it’s an interview,
An open chance for very few,
But the way I view
Its Life kept 'in lieu'

It was a year back, when I saw them, when I spoke to them, when they shared what they had, when they fought with all that they got…

Documentation – that was the word then & the toughest thing to do. Exchange of calls while filling up the proforma, exchange of emotions for those hopeful eyes

Now, a year later I click the ‘search’ button, I type in names…

I realize each call,
They said God did call
They feel it was soon
But they take it as a boon
The pain was in pair
The cause – wasn’t fair

Those thoughts come back, reminding of those times, when we were younger, when we didn’t know much, but they felt connected, they felt assured, and that feeling is what kept going, time passed, life passed, so did we…

Documentation – that was the word then… I feel at what cost, at whose pain, we all were lost, it was a bane…

Even more, than...even LIFE...

I am sitting here
Looking at the clock
Time ticks by
Do i wana go home?
But what about those
Standing up on 3rd floor
Waiting for their dear one
The dear one inside
With tubes running all over
What about them...?
No track of time,
No track of day,
No track of place,
No track of..... life?
If at all....
They dont know the morning
The beautiful sunrise
They dont know the night
There is no surprise
Time is still ticking
They are still alive
Time is still ticking
How many times can one revive?
They can here us
But cannot speak yet
Their eyes are open
But do they see yet?
What goes on in that mind
Is difficult to say
Or are we missing something
And not seeing it their way?
Those eyes are saying something
The heart is letting it so
But the mind is thinking otherwise
And not letting it go
Lord, please grant me a chance
Help with a second glance
To be able to realize
To be able to actualize
Even more, than i have to offer
Even more, than i have to sacrifice
Even more, than i have to serve
Even more, than.....even LIFE....

PEANUTS!!!

Hey all...

Thought of writin a poem, a rhyme for my first post.. but instead... something else popped up... an experience, an emotion.. a life.... Rejuvenated..

They were sweet
They were simple
They were calm
They were real

Mrs A had cancer in her lung... unable to eat, unable to sleep well, coughin throughout... didnt get treated for a long time...didnt have th resources... her husband had almost given up...
On his wife.. his life...

I saw them that day.. as they came for their regular treatment... those eager eyes.. searchin for some one.. who could listen to them... share what they had to say... hear them out.. feel for them...

It was all in there.. bottled up... causing suffocation....

He was sad, devastated... felt so much for her... couldnt bear the pain...

They were humble... In pain...
Everything to lose...Nothing to gain..

They got it out... finally... it gave peace... it gave strength.. it gave life.... a reason... to restore... to
seek... to be at peace....

I finally felt life...
A stab with a knife...
It hurt.. it wasnt fair...
Cannot revert.. causing despair...

But life got a chance..
Got a second glance...
It finally felt good... it finally felt real..
With arms open it stood.. with nothing to conceal...

They came everyday... finally a smile on their face...
Like they got their blessing ray... all His amazing grace...

They wanted to show gratitude... they did so in kind....
They gave me peanuts...that's all they could find...
They couldnt afford more... they'd already touched my heart's core...

And oh grace!
They gave an alltogether different meaning to
PEANUTS!!!
