For my true love!
In search of love
i found you,
in the heart of kindness
i discovered you!
In sparkling eyes
i found the truth,
in caring hands
i found you!
I never wanted to part
but times are such,
i never thought!
It was you
who showed me the way,
for all i know... its you from today!

It was you
who showed me the way,
for all i know... its you from today!
the search is still on...
for many who thought of me as inspiration,
for many who looked at me for love,
its you who needed me to look at you... with such glow.
i listened to a few... i argued with a few
i relished a few... but was never fond of you.
i treasured u, i respected u
but when i challenged u...it was never you!
i think i know, but i dont
i think i missed u, but i dont
everyday that passes by i pray,
i never find a man just like u!

Dedicated to my favourite Dr.
It was a bright sunny morning on a sunday in Matunga, on my kinetic riding with dad to Cafe Madras for breakfast. I heard a loud noise and breaked suddenly....to my surprise it was an old man, 86 years old doctor. He was no other than Dr.Krishnan. Our Family doctor and he was the best. I used to enjoy being in his clinic, his assistant was the best...he would let me be anywhere in the clinic. He had this old woodden clinic with glass window...high cieling and a huge garden in front....i loved his garden a small seesaw...was all kids needed. Me and my dad greeted our doctor and had missed him for years, he stopped his practice a few years ago...fortunately none of our family members have fallen ill since he stopped his practice. Rather i roughly remember, it was std 7th the last time when i had jaundice and he let me have ice-creme, and have my medicinal tablets with honey...not water. WOW!!! can u imagine when u have no taste in your mouth you have a doctor who would let you eat chocolates for one medicinal tablet. He was a very traditional doctor i have ever found.... who believed medicinal or antibiotic tablets are for extreme cases. He used to give these medicines which were red coloured liquids - with a small sticker metre marked on bottles for every dose...and they were good. Atleast it never made your mouth tasteless like the medicines lately. My experience since then with Doctors have not been so good. While me and dad continued our conversation with our doctor... we shared everything from how we miss him as our family doctor? to his new apartment on 16th floor...from where he can enjoy the full 360 degree view of matunga. He was a very well read person, while he used to cure his patients not only with his medicines but also with his kindness and stories for all children who would get an injection (tetanis or other regular ones) without realising the pain... his sanskrit gyan (knowledge) was very good...one good knowledge he shared with us was he lately believes that Doctors of todays generation have no time to spend with their patients and hence its no more of a bond that you would feel with your doctors. Rather cities like mumbai have a very different story of space and culture and time being money. We had thoroughly enjoyed his company for few minutes that we could catch him. A 86yr old man all fit and fine, walking alone without any support or a stick and doing all the things he had to as part of his daily activity....I THANK GOD TODAY I MET SUCH A LOVELY MAN IN MY LIFE!
