What a wonderful world...

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

[PS: A song from movie "Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na" has this kinda Jazz flavored music... has anybody felt the same?

Check this awesome video for above lyrics and the singer... what a wonderful world!

You know!!

Today, just came back home after a tiring day at work... by then wow!! what i see!! my roomie had made me delicious tea and what else i can ask for after a long day at work? [I know there are few already feeling J :D] I started having it and enjoying every sip of it. Suddenly you know what? I heard some thing which triggered me to write the following J

Have you ever observed people talking? noticed their unique words which they keep repeating? With every sentence they say, they start or end with that particular word!! I have this weird thing of observation and that too if a person has some things unique like that, guess what? I will be the first person to catch it and become conscious about it!

There was one colleague (?!) in my previous company who would start or end every sentence spoken with "You Know"! Once I was debugging some serious issue, my manager was also with me and this colleague came to discuss the same issue and wanted to help us out with his ideas. He was talking to my manager in particular and I was just listening to both discussing and once in a while when required was answering to their questions. As they were discussing you know? This word caught my attention, and I started wondering to see how many times he was using "you know" you know? My mind stopped listening to their conversation, instead kicked off a counter, waiting to catch the word " you know" and it kept on incrementing... you know? Ufff!!! Within that 3-5 mins conversation you know, how many "you knows were there? You know!! More than 30!!! After a while, my mind was screaming "Stop it" and otherwise I would burst!! I thanked God, when he stopped and left the place, I was relieved, you know!!

There is my new colleague, you know? Actually he starts or ends every line with this word "actually" actually all the times! "Actually, I wanted to do that, but some thing came in between, could not do it... actually..." oooooo!!! start and even end with "actually" :)
In one of weekly meetings, my counter had started incrementing without my knowledge and constantly noticing this "actually", but forcibly I reset and shut it down. But every time I talk to him actually I can not help but wonder how many times he says that J

Let me tell about few of my friends :D!! Hope after reading this post, they won't come and kill me!
This one friend, whenever want to describe some thing amazing, some thing more than normal, there is a word ready called "Super"!!! Like “I'm super happy”, “super hungry”, It's super koool isn't it? What ya say :) This is a patented word from this friend!!

There is one more friend, who would say "Teek hai" for every sentance spoken! "I will come and make tea, teek hai" :)

And there are few other friends, who would just talk in terms of "hmms" like one would say "hmm" other one would reply "hmm hmm" !! hmmmmmmm J

I can't forget this friend of mine, who would always scold "donkeys, monkeys, chaplus and aplus” like "tu gahda hai" arrey! Common why are you scolding those bechare donkeys yaar, common spare them!! I don't know about those chaplus and aplus!! Poor guys whoever they may be!

Last but not least, one other buddy would come and say "I want to get married soon" and say " wish my manger is 10 years younger and unmarried" " i would happily have gotten married !!! " [Though this manager wants or does not want :P you know!! ] I listen and still listening and keep smiling...

Don't know what it is...

I know words you spoke...
I know those words which you did not speak...

I knew your pain...my friend...
I had felt it for myself...
I know that droplet which struggled to escape from those misty eyes...
I know that smile which tried to hide that emptiness of heart...
I know that harshness which tried to surface that weakness...

I know words you spoke...My friend
I know those words which you did not speak...

[PS: This is my first poem in English!!! don't know if it really fits into that category at all! :) written some time back... and now dared to post it!!]
