The poetry in the smallest of things and in every emotion of the self.
Wordsworth defines a poet as a person of more comprehensive soul. A poet is different from others, because he/she has a more lively sensibility, and his/her emotions and passions are more enthusiastic, tenderer and more powerful. A poet has a greater knowledge of human nature, the poet is not only a social instrument but an individual, pleased with his/her own passions and volitions. The poet has a greater degree of imaginative power than others, a power of looking from heaven to earth and earth to heaven.
Poetry is the sliver of the moon lost in the belly of a golden frog.
Poetry is the opening and closing of the door ,leaving those who look through to guess what is seen during a moment.
Poetry is a phantom script telling how rainbows are made and why they go away.
It is the humming of a soul
a soul full of emotions
emotions, often hidden
hidden like desires with deeper longing
longings that have been swept away
away, into deep hearts, deeper than the ocean
Poetry is someone’s feelings,
feelings which are covert.
Covert like the heartbeats,
heartbeats full of thousand stories.
Stories full of memories,
memories of love, sadness and euphoria
Poetry is an incomplete song
a song for the world to comprehend.
It may evoke an experience
sometimes notional sometimes semantic
yet, it is not everyone’s cup of tea
It is the rhythm of the misunderstood.
It is the calling of the introverts.
It is the pulse of a dreamer.
a metaphor through a mirror.
a silent prayer to the divine.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
