My Weblog Splendor

I don’t remember when I worked last like the way I have been doing since yesterday. Fingers have seized to themselves and are not listening to what my brain is telling. And my wrist has turned even worse. The prevalent bondage it laid on the mouse is showing its effects now. And the eyes; are they still eyes? I suspect. But I am seeing, my suspicion subsides. But it has gone swollen. Sleep I need.

Actually the New Year resolution that I had recently signed gestured me to bring changes wherever there is stand-still. Most of them I have already worked upon. My blog design was what I had missed. Its design, the widgets it contained; all were the same since I formed my blog. And it is getting more than seven months of my blog’s birth. :D

“I shall change it, the design…mmmmhhhh….Everything”, I committed the crime to myself.

Changing the basic template for your blog is very easy. It won’t give you the pain that I faced. Actually the pains start stagnating once you choose to look for the “best” available “free custom“ template.  I went through hundreds of free templates; found them no good at all.

“Yes! This is the one”…I stopped somewhere. But when I loaded the template what I got was terribly bad. Though the CSS layouts were intact but I didn’t like the way my blog looked overall. I decided to change the basic codes of the templates. Thanks to my best friend, Mr. Google. He was always with me supporting me with cheats and tweaks that most of the time failed to impress me.

Yesterday it ended without any progress. If you call ‘a mess up’ a progress then yes, I had it a lot yesterday.  Few more tweaks, some more tries finally yielded something significant. I redesigned everything; from Photoshopic designing of header/logo to breaking the outer and inner wrapper of the main page; played around with Jquery and JavaScript. It now feels good that it is over finally.

There is still lot to say, but I bind up here. If you will be visiting my blog now, you will notice the changes yourself. Though it pained a lot, but yes it was enjoyable. I learned many things. Things that are part of my subject, but I was missing them. There is still lot more to learn; lot more to earn.

Pains do gains…..I agree. Do you?

Tale of a Puerpera...

I was then inside you

You lived sad, your eyes dew.

I was to be the victim; I was a girl child

Going to be a dead bush, with Axe’s contrive

You wanted me to live; you dodged the killers

Today I am breathing; I am standing alive.

I lived in your arms always

But you had nowhere to live

I was smiling in your warmth always

But you were cold inside your deep

You were astir always

And me sound asleep.

The New Sunrise

A familiarity it seems I have

With the moment I am seeing

A conking evening it seems

Feeling the aroma; wishes & smiles caking

I have been through it before too

I have heard the voices similar

People’s handshakes & their chaining.

Pyrotechnic arts and fireworks around

Tiny little bells’ jingling fogbound.

Yes! I recall what it is

New year eve’s flock it is

A welcome to the coming year

Celebration at its beginning.

Being Aspirer

Who is the one, that has come along,

Haven’t met distress, happiness among.

A seed is sown, a hope is grown

And when it’s a sapling, there comes blabbering

That one day it will grow, fruits it will show

Shadow will be around, pleasure profound.

And then it’s not hope, wider is its scope

Has turned into dream, an auspicious scheme.

Look the difference my friend, in small words I lend

That was the needle, you had selected

To sew your life, that was uncoordinated.

But the finger got pricked; your soul got tricked

Incidents that existed, has made strength go tested.

And if I am not wrong, you weren't played for long

You should be thankful, at least a handful

To the God that’s right, with whom we can’t fight.

What’s so nice, if you continue to slice
You know the pain, as it’s you who has the burn.

Look wider this time; and let life sublime
The life is real, which you must live with zeal,

You can’t skip the bad part, like life in reel.

You have earned something, a lesson to learn.

And it’s already so sad, so why let go further bad?

I will come back

A kind of attachment I grow

Where ever I live,

My vacant hostel reminds something

And I dont wanna leave,

This is so, I believe.

However sweet the home is,

A kind of being myself is here,

Like the bolt on the door is.

And I have locked the door

with somebody inside,

And thats my lonely piece there,

Hauling its roar

Calling my name wide.

Why is it so sad

Among the smiles on the pad?

Hey! I will come back,

Wait for me,

Look for my imprints on rack.

I will turn,

With every setting sun,

For you only

My partner at my lonely.

Hey! I will come back.

I Am Alone...

On a crowded road,

I walked aside;

They leapt past me,

My existence at hide;

And then escaped a moan,

I am alone…

I got worried,

With their turmoil and despair;

I extended my hands to help,

But they cut them in pair;

And then cried the unfair loan,

I am alone…

I played the game,

Snubbed their rules wicked,

With my rules of moral fame;

But I lost and fell;

And then pained my broken bone,

I am alone…

I fell in love,

With a girl my first;

But she moved away,

Left my heart to burst;

And then screamed my heart sewn,

I am alone…

I don’t know,

How do I feel;

I don’t know,

What’s in the reel;

But then says my mind blown,

I am alone…
