Some thing tells me..
Nightfall
Tells me…
It will soon be day.
This winter
Tells me…
Spring is on its way.
Past failure
Tells me….
I can do it,
If only I tried again.
Closing distance
Tells me….
I have come a long way.
I fear not failure pain or misery
For they reassure me….
I haven’t given up yet.
I will survive,
No matter what comes my way.

Excellent poem. I am assuming that when you say “I will survive…” you mean the survival of the ‘I’ as before it was before whatever happened. Survival of our physical form is not very difficult (though you just might differ as a doc), the trick lies in trying to get through life on our terms, uncorrupted by evil external influences. Failure/pain/misery have a bad propensity of killing a part of us. But yes, we shall fight, and we shall survive
May the Force be with you!

Thanks.
My sentiments exactly.Whatever authority my little experience gives me,I can say with conviction that the body can endure a lot physically if it is mentally and emotionally sound.

EU tell me………u like to pen down comfortably in poetry or prose …..because both of the genres suits u quite well ….
like wordswoth said ….sponataneuos outflow of powerful information (don’t know whether recollected in tranquility or not)
u echo keats girl …..ode to the west wind
“O Wind,
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?”
Ash
Ash said,
February 1, 2006 at 2:51 pm

Ash:
Penning down has been an experience.I am more of a conversationalist.This is a very new experience and I am loving it.Thanks for your kind words.I guess in this part of the world weather is such a huge deal its inevitable to echo in everyone’s mind.Don’t worry..the message came through.:)

Hey EU,
Just to tell you, how my predicts fared:
I said 2:0, the last test being drawn. It reversed last test they won and others they drew. But still believe they hit themselves on the foot by giving the wickets they did.
Sachin…wala…bola thha na…now everyonez saying that.
I said Shoaib’s gonna be the key, but we have to be careful abt the other end. Shoaib was difficult but we survived while the other end took the game.
So those were I feel accurate predicts…..but you know and I know, how we are feeling right now…right???
Rohit Talwar said,
February 2, 2006 at 7:29 pm
EU, I don’t think so!

Koi Paheli:
I am glad,thanks.
S-E-J:
Your evaluations were right.Can’t say the same about your predictions..:p.Hmm we will just have to wait and see what happens after the 6th.
Rohit:
Are you saying,you have never tried to make up with an angry friend,sit for an exam again that you might have failed.That people don’t pick up the pieces of their broken lives to survive?That one failure can put one so down that they never try again?
Rohit Talwar said,
February 3, 2006 at 12:04 pm
Yes. Just that. Exclude making up with friends.
And who said one failure can put you down so much! Did I mean that.. Nahi re..
educatedunemployed said,
February 3, 2006 at 6:27 pm
Rohit:
Then what did you mean?Did I totally misunderstand you?Hmm, kabhi phursat ho to samjhana..Cheers.
Rohit Talwar said,
February 3, 2006 at 10:55 pm
Hmm.. yes you did. anyways. probably i wrote it in a way that it was never clear.. hehee..
PS: I suddenly dont want to grow up! as you wrote on my blog.. damn.. i have always wanted to.. but this Di’s wedding thing is scaring me a lot.. how will i manage without her!
Thats why!
educatedunemployed said,
February 3, 2006 at 11:43 pm
Rohit:
Chal chod may be we both misundertsood each other.
You know the next few days you will have to shoulder a lot of responsibilty.Physical duties and mental one’s.Some one in the family has to hold all of you guys together and I feel the onus will be on you.I know you have your own insecurities,your own emotional turmoil,but you are a lot stronger than you think you are.
Its a very speacial day for your sister..I know Ive said this before and I say it again..be the support and strength she needs because she needs it most now.
