from novel-'the story inside'..a novel by suresh jyotipunja

'I had told her that when I cry,the sky does.she didn't believe .she was just standing there with an empty look trying to figure out what I was talkng about.may be she thought-I was crazy, in the world of my fantasy.Then there was this day,when I was standing by her side with tears in my eyes.It started raining like cats and dogs.i wiped my tears off and said-don’t you see honey,don’t you see that? tears and my eyes and tears in the sky.she was puzzled and said ,'Are you alright?'.and then a miracle happened in front of our eyes. lights in the sky, all around, lights between the raindrops. i smiled and replied -honey,I am alright,don't you see that?lights all around between the rain drops, cool lights, and a smile with tears. she was puzzled more and asked.'hey are you crazy'.i didn't have guts to say that-yes dear I am,I am for so long crazy. but how sane you are?

The basics...........

The basics

I was thinking
of right and wrong,
When I didn’t know
how to walk.
I thought of singing a song,
When I didn’t know
how to talk.
I know,
its so numb,
You don’t feel sorrow, pain,
I know,
its so dumb
To talk about loss and gain
When you don't know,
What is sun,
what is rain.

The experiment...

'supernova'...my first english song............

When I was four. He was three.

चलेपछी सबैतिर नाउँ हजुरको.........

गजल
आकासिँदो रहेछ भाउ हजुरको।
चलेपछी सबैतिर नाउँ हजुरको।

ओखतिले छुँदैन निको नहुने रोग,
बल्झिएला त्यही घाऊ हजुरको।

भर केही छैन हारजित भन्ने कुरा,
नपर्न सक्छ फेरी दाउ हजुरको।

दिएपछी आफुले पाउने हो सम्मान,
ढोग्ने त्यो परकै पाउ हजुरको।

ज्योतिपुण्ज होइन अरुजस्तै कमल,
नियालेर हेर्दा तलाउ हजुरको।

आकासिँदो रहेछ भाउ हजुरको।
चलेपछी सबैतिर नाउ हजुरको।

गजल..........

हारेपछी पिरतीमा जोगी भन्न थाले।
मनको घाऊ गहिरो रोगी भन्न थाले।

कति पिउने खालि प्रेम प्याला हजुर,
आँसु मिलाएँ अलि भोगी भन्न थाले।

गरेरै अझै सम्झना फुर्सद कहाँ मलाई,
तपस्या धेरै काठिन योगी भन्न थाले।

चर्चा यहाँ ठुलै, दोश आखिर कसको,
ज्योतिपुण्जलाई मात्रै ढोँगी भन्न थाले।

हारेपछी पिरतीमा जोगी भन्न थाले।
मनको घाऊ गहिरो रोगी भन्न थाले।
