Pitter-Patter Joy 🌬️☁️☔🪟

The scenery of home during monsoon
Is like putting flavours for the first time
In a new dish. 
Important,
Confused, 
An Adventure of a lifetime memory. 

The plants aren't easy to look after, 
Like murky dust on the windows 🪟 
That wet doormat on the balcony during rain ☔ 
The last decor piece on the first wall hanging craft from the kindergarten.

Earlier, it was the aromatic new books at school,
Now, it's the cool advertisement of unpleasant crocs, 
The payment slip of new job,
To savour the delicious noodles. 
The latest exercise at gym,
And the muscles sore it brings,
With loads of serotonin.
The failure expressing gratitude in a new mail,
And may be being selected for the interview at favourite institute.
The pungent smell of the last burnt photograph,
And the fresh journal diary with generous characters. 

What is easy then?
The running feet to grab the clothes hanging 👚
The drenched feet playfully dancing 🌊
The relief of petrichor,
The rain settling the dust in the form of pinterest board- detailed artwork,
The fresh cup of chamomile tea with honey ☕.

    Beautiful poetic musing.
    It captures the nostalgia, growth, and the quiet chaos of adulthood.

    Reading this felt like sitting by the window with rain outside and old memories inside. You turn everyday chaos into something warm and comforting, just like that cup of chamomile tea at the end. Beautiful words, Munazza- Messy but beautiful 🌧️💛 ,that tells to find warmth in small things ✨

Pitch, Poetry, and Parallel Times: What a Joka!📽️🍁✍🏼🗓️

कुछ कह दिया होता? कूर्ग का टिकट करा ही लिया होता? शायद सब बेहतर होता। The “if theory” is the wisest of all for the pitch — even for skeptical humans. Time traveling has always fascinated my mind, as it does for many of us. We often wish to leap into the future or alter the past. Last July, I unexpectedly got a call from the city of Jhilmil and Barfi. I felt the emotions exactly as Satyajit Ray’ s movies make us feel, with the metaphysical boundaries of dreams and reality, reminiscent of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s poetry. Before my rotting thoughts could steal all the joy, as they did in the movie Lootera near lakes, I tried to reassemble my gratitude while being in sujood. Literature expertise would lead to an institute talking about consultancy. Phew! I never thought God’s pitch worked like that. If 25-year-old Munazza hadn’t heard that, she wouldn’t have thought of this pun: What a joka! No wonder I’ve stopped writing. Ideas only come in dreams, in waves, often butchered...

11:11? What a stupid wish-granting factory reset ⏳

Scene I   Lights Camera Pen☀️  How lonely and lovely at the same time, To live in a castle of own, How strange and fluffy  The winds from roof Where rain keeps showering  Like dancing along. I keep singing poems While doing the laundary  And hanging the clothes to go dry Some lose their charms Some crankles, some run  Some turn out from black to greyyyyyyyy! I tip toe the work I Like it's an art! It's always always better to do work this way. It's easy, and lovely  And as Mary⁵ and Bert⁶ says,  "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."¹ The people around notice nothing unusual as they're part of their own musicals. The kids love splashing in lakes, the women complete their everyday chores sharing emotions like an art, men walk around with an umbrella so dark making sure they hide their emotions, strangers both men and women whistle along (some hidden, most vague), cats own the roads and walk like Hadid sisters on Victoria's last ramp walk, lea...

I Don't Brush My Teeth 🪥🦷🪞🧴🧺

I see a mirror in front of the tiny basin I flinch at my reflection; There is a man behind me  Holding my hair, gently Like a professional hairdresser,  planting a pony tail. I see a mirror in front of the green round basin, I stopped in the moment- As the pause,  While watching a movie with DVD  during the washroom break, Or At times for the freshly danced churmurey. The man played a song from Barfi Placing tiny droplet shaped toothpaste Flavoured with mint, and love. I see a mirror in front of the rectangular gold basin, The man in the reflection had a gentle smile. I fell on my knees Begging the reflection to be of one  Mine, mine alone! The man helped me to brush my teeth; "Clean the tongue, it won't budge me  Rinse the mouth,  There's nothing anxious  if water splashes all over me." Eye level with the cabinet doors,  Sitting still, I see a soap freshly wrapped With elite fragrance 🧼 I feared the swirling froth, Soaking well in my maroon...
