To Earthward

by Robert Frost

Love at the lips was touch
As sweet as I could bear;
And once that seemed too much;
I lived on air

That crossed me from sweet things,
The flow of--was it musk
From hidden grapevine springs
Downhill at dusk?

I had the swirl and ache
From sprays of honeysuckle
That when they're gathered shake
Dew on the knuckle.

I craved strong sweets, but those
Seemed strong when I was young;
The petal of the rose
It was that stung.

Now no joy but lacks salt,
That is not dashed with pain
And weariness and fault;
I crave the stain

Of tears, the aftermark
Of almost too much love,
The sweet of bitter bark
And burning clove.

When stiff and sore and scarred
I take away my hand
From leaning on it hard
In grass and sand,

The hurt is not enough:
I long for weight and strength
To feel the earth as rough
To all my length.

I am not yours

by Sara Teasdale

I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.

You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.

Oh plunge me deep in love—put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind

உடலே உறங்க வழி இல்லாத போது... உயிர் என்றும் உறங்க முடியுமோ???

now i remember...

i just remember now that i used to be in Infy blog (in Infosys intranet) during my seperation days... i served 75 painful days doing nothing more than vent my frustration and thoughts in the blog... i vaguely remember what i wrote all those days...

just today we have comissioned the new machine costing me not so hefty 1,70,000 rs and yet to take trials... looking for the auspicious day to turn the key and see how things change from there... fingers crossed i should fair better from there...

will get some pics tomorrow...

helloa!!!

i was wodering how things changed since my last post, well, scrolling down you should be able to see its been ten months atleast since my last post...

too many things changed over the time... i decided to quit my job by end of last july and kissed my employer goodbye on october 15th... i was home the very next day and in a months by nov-dec i was running my business... BANG!! came the recession/slowdown, call it how you may fancy, i could not help but laugh... trying to keep heads above water i could finally breathe by march...

looking back i see that its been six months since i decided to run an industry of my own and one thing i can feel happy about is..... my decision :-) i never regret and think twice about it... come what may... and just today i bought my new macine... after a long delay of four months...

will try to write how my transition from a boring software geek into an entrepreneur goes by...
