A poem that touched my heart There is a poem standing outside my door as I opened, the verse looked down at the floor I let the poem in happily and danced on my toes reminded me of her smile, we were so close The rhythmic flow of the words pulled me along to her mesmerising arms, where I always belong It looked like she was standing outside my door and wished to dance with me again on the floor ©Krishnan

"We look up at the same stars. You from your place and me from my place, exactly at 8:00 pm." Upon hearing her suggestion, I initially assumed she was joking. However, she was serious and asked me to follow, after which we parted ways. That night I was on a flight, and as I glanced at my mobile, I saw the time as 7:55 pm. Immediately, I glanced out of the window, gazing up at the stars. I could see only one star twinkling brightly. I couldn't stop smiling! ©Krishnan

Hugs can sometimes shorten the distance between two people after an argument, and they can also ease misunderstandings. Well, I'm not referring to hugs between individuals who are not close to each other, as this is obviously not an easy task. I'm talking about hugs between people within a family, friends, and relatives.  Also, remember, a misunderstanding isn't required to give a hug! ©Krishnan

You write 'I' on one page and 'Love' on another, keeping the rest of the pages empty. Then you give her the book and request that she open it only after you leave.  Leave immediately; hide at a place from where you can see her, but she cannot. She then opens the first page, looks at the 'I' written, and then flips the next page to find 'Love' written. She takes a deep breath, looks around to see if anyone is nearby before flipping to the next page, and is shocked to see an empty page. Now, she turns to the next page again and is surprised to see another empty page. The anticipation of what's on the next page of the book is building up. Now, if she increases the speed of flipping the pages after realising, it's empty on each page and frantically shakes the book to see if any piece of paper falls out, she definitely has something to do with you! Don't be surprised if you get a call from her soon! ©Krishnan

It was a beautiful evening; the waves danced to the tune of the gentle breeze that was blowing around the beach. I got my legs wet strolling in the waves and decided to rest a bit, looking towards the crimson red sunset at the horizon. A girl, approximately 5 years old, was engaged in the construction of a castle in the sand, as well as a tunnel leading to it. She had done with the castle but was unable to complete the tunnel; the sand was crumbling down. I saw her trying for at least ten times.Sometimes she sat thinking with her chin resting on her fist but never gave up. In between, she looked at me and smiled. The sun shifted its course to rest and waited for her to finish. Walking into the waves, she collected water in her little hands and poured it to tighten the sand. She repeated a number of times.At last the tunnel was done. The joy on her little face was the highlight of the day. I still remember that innocent, cute smile of success. The sun was halfway through the sunset, and beautiful lyrics swept through my mind. "आती हैं आंधियां तो कर उनका खैर मकदम। तूफां से ही तो लड़ने खुदा ने तुझे गढ़ा है। ये मत कहो खुदा से मेरी मुश्किलें बड़ी हैं इन मुश्किलों से कह दो, मेरा खुदा बड़ा है।" ©Krishnan
