पंछियों के नगर भरतपुर में,

उसे भी आसमान में  आजाद  परिदें सा उङने  का शौक था।

वह थी सिर्फ 13 साल की,

चाहती थी सम्मान की जिंदगी जीना।

पुलिस की छापेमारी के बाद, उसका शव मिला……..

पानी में तैरता हुआ।

पुलिस ने कहा बचने के लिए पानी में कूद गई थी,

पर रोती माँ,  तन के चोट…..

कुछ और हीं कहानी  कह रहे थे,

 क्या   उन्हें अच्छी जिंदगी जीने की चाह  नहीं हो सकती?

कोठे,वेश्यालय  भी  तो चलते हैं सभ्य समाज की दया दृष्टि से,

 क्या  कभी सच सामने आयेगा?

“Things I want to tell my Baby”(guest post)

From day one, the countdown of nine months begun;
And I eagerly waited for month five, for flaunting my baby bump.

Silently, I wished an early arrival of my Delivery day;
Guess that’s why I kept maternity bag ready, weeks before the estimated date.

Yes, I felt restless; but slow deep breaths lowered my stress.
Yes, I was in fear; when my Due Date was getting near.

Then one fine day, I realized you were trying to come out;
And hence I gave a loud shout!

I kept my eyes closed, not in pain but in mirth;
I closed my eyes to thank god for helping me throughout your birth.

Though it was your first day on earth, but it wasn’t our first meet;
As you were inside me from past forty weeks.

You caught everyone’s attention,
The time I brought you Home with indefinable satisfaction.

Honestly, I used to get a happy-unhappy feeling,
As your hairs were growing,
But my hair growth was slowing.

From reading books and articles on baby grooming to baby clothing;
I sought and bought everything, made for your well-being.

After some time, you started using your cries to alarm me;
Dear Baby, you certainly turned me into a busy bee.

With you, I realized that Baby Care is beyond breastfeeding;
That phase is still special to me since ’twas my level one of parenting.
