Pitter-Patter Joy 🌬️☁️☔πŸͺŸ

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 πŸͺŸ 
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 πŸ‘š
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 ☕.

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

Pitch, Poetry, and Parallel Times: What a Joka!πŸ“½️🍁✍πŸΌπŸ—“️

ΰ€•ुΰ€› ΰ€•ΰ€Ή ΰ€¦िΰ€―ा ΰ€Ήोΰ€€ा? ΰ€•ूΰ€°्ΰ€— ΰ€•ा ΰ€Ÿिΰ€•ΰ€Ÿ ΰ€•ΰ€°ा ΰ€Ήी ΰ€²िΰ€―ा ΰ€Ήोΰ€€ा? ΰ€Άाΰ€―ΰ€¦ ΰ€Έΰ€¬ ΰ€¬ेΰ€Ήΰ€€ΰ€° ΰ€Ήोΰ€€ा। 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...

Where the Mulberry Tree Used to Be πŸŒ³πŸ›πŸƒ

Walking by the lake, I’m struck by the ducks gliding effortlessly across the water πŸ¦†. It’s a beautiful sight. But then, sadness creeps in, like dark clouds gathering above. I remember the mulberry tree we had to cut down, it felt like losing a piece of home. πŸͺ΅ 🏑  Yet, as I watch the students laughing nearby living a life with innocence in heart, I’m reminded of hopeπŸ‘©πŸ»‍πŸ’»πŸ““✍πŸ»πŸ’‘. Their joy contrasts sharply with my heaviness. What is hope, I wonder, when everything else feels so burdensome? :') Cutting down the mulberry bush in the orchard wasn't the plan for the year 2025. Abbu informed me this news of separation months later because of knowing my longing for things. I find comfort in the mundane things,from new baby grass to colourful dupatta flowing in the wind as if it's dancing with nature, most probably running from the snatching away of monkeys in our hometown. I dislike the monkeys πŸ’ tearing the drying clothes, just like I dislike the idea of gettin...
