Home

Home,

a sacred territory,a refuge

a nest, a tree, a house

rivers, bushes, under the stones

anywhere, everywhere

the whole world.

Protecting,

Comforting n soothing..

Inviting and protecting

Sheltering n nurturing ..

Vibrantly colorful

restfully dull

Home.

Voices resound against the walls

Echoes of  your silence and  your screams,

etched into the bricks..

The witnesses of ur joys n sorrows.

if they could tell,what would they not tell..

Of your excitements and disappointments

If they could show,what wouldn’t they show.

If they could but be the narrator of our stories,
What strange stories would be told..
Our naked faces,

Our naked emotions

Our imperfections,

our histories.

Exposed to the world.

Home.

The place where we wear our mask.

Before we leave 2 face the world,

Our insecurities n worries,

Our deepest joys are all deposited here.

And when we exit the door,

We leave ourselves behind,

And our shadows strove forth.

  1. * Mask represents the Diplomacy part of Ones #Life n its nothing but Artificial & more Often most fall into their own “PIT”, which de dig for others, if de are wearing a MASK ……. !
    ** One should not attach to much, to HIS/ HER Wealth called HOME, CoZ the “Insecurity”, which is
    mentioned is always attached to it, as HOME is nothing but, “Attraction” to MOST ……. !!
    *** One will derive Satisfaction, in REAL sense from HOME, If n Only If, HE/ SHE leaves behind
    GREED, Lust n Hunger for Accumulation, Thinking about Self, Selfish, Vested Interests, Jealous,
    One-Upmanship, Poor Display of Wealth, Show-Off…….. so on, n so forth ……. !!!
    * In GERMANY, there will be a Program Organised by #SriSriRaviShankar, On “Peace n Harmony”
    & the Objective is to bring the Whole WORLD under One ROOF, Like “We r d World n We r Its
    Children” #Type ……. Even to Dream of such an EVENT, is a HERCULEAN “TASK”, but its very
    SIMPLE for those, Who can make it Come TRUE …….. All de need is “SUPPORT” from d PEOPLE
    as a “TEAM”, Without which such an Event, isint Possible …… Its never One Way “TRAFFIC”…!!!!
    * The TRUE definition of “HOME” is, If YOUR or ANY’s , FRIENDS, Philospher n Guides are
    Like #DIMONDS, then One doesnt have to “RUN” after WEALTH & its channel is operated straight from HEART n not MIND, CoZ, if Mind is applied, it gives U “FEVER” n if HEART is applied, it gives U “PEACE” …… so d choice is left to people to decide ……. !!!!!
    * I conclude by saying: the Simpler U live, Ur “LIFE” the “Happier” One would be . In other Words,
    the more Complex the Life becomes, Problems gets Compounded Automatically ……. !!!!!!

    Thanks !!! for d nice “PORT/ BLOG” ….. Looking Forward

Home…The Only place in the world.. which makes me feel secure, loved, cared..My Home is the only place which has witnessed my Joys and Sorrows..the turmoils of my emotions good as well as bad… ahh.. the feeling when I return from my job in the evening..the moment I open the door of my house.. I get this feeling..that this is the only place where I belong to and would love to be here forever… My Home .. Sweet HOME…
    And As you said .. Our Deepest Joys are deposited here.. So true !
    Great Poem.. keep Going..Looking forward for more..

  4. Home – now matter how big or small – is our temple, our citadel of rest & recuperation, beholder of our privacy, provider of our personal space, endurer of our dwindling moods and sufferer of our plethora of adjustments – all made to suit our comfort zone. It coexists with our good and bad times. It sulks at our sorrow and revels at our joy.

    The care of a home, the conduct of a home, the management of a home reflects the being called YOU! It is the mirror in you and we, the fortunate, who have a home pray to the good Lord that may such a home be bestowed upon all those poor who don’t have one!

    Excellent one Jyothi.

  5. Wonderful poem. Our home is witness to our true selves, our emotions, love, and moments of joy:))
