Rockstar!
Anirudh Goswami is someone who intrigued me with his first scrap, after ten scraps, which involved me insisting he write for us, we lost touch! Partly because of the traffic in my scrapbook and my mind and partly because he is one BUSY student of law.. I'm charmed by his poetry..something does stir. Inside the forest is my absolute favourite... You can visit his blog at

Thanks for putting up with Late Lolita Anirudh haha...
Cheers,

Author's intro:
(He never gave me one, and stole this picture from his album..and yeah it's him!!shhhh)
Outside the Glass Window
Outside the glass window have I seen…
Sea of clouds calm and serene…
Divinity flows in their every vein…
Melting away all your pain…
Layers of seamless waves of life…
Stairs to endless caves come alive…
Sitting atop this city of blue …
I’m finally beginning to have a clue…
That in this life I have to be…
The rays of the Sun and the infinite sea…
The emerald mountain and the solitary stream…
Where drops of life together flow…
And everything around it begins to glow…
Astonished by this miraculous show…
Let’s pledge to be the Sun’s Rainbow…In The Forest
Verse 1
You never see the same river twice..
Be prepared! You gotta be wise..
The next time you go outta that door..
Don’t know what’s there for you in store..
Verse 2
Touching trees and falling leaves..
She smiles as she serenely sees..
The forest full of them who glow..
In pitch darkness they let their light flow..
Chorus
Seamless orbs of water fall..
In myriad ways looking tall..
You try your best to catch them all..
In front of them you feel so small..
Verse 3
I chose these lines for you to see..
The forest glow worms are you and me..
Looking at them I’ve found the key..
Immersed in light I’m finally free..
