Purple Path

The wait of wintered night is done
A burgundy dawn begins its run
The reverie chimes me in its talk
Upon the purple path I walk

Path so unbidden, royal, and rare
With a wise power and a mystical flair
A seminal magic that spring has spun
Upon the purple path I run

Path paved by Blissful Transcendence 
Stellar begetters in innocent effulgence
Exalted beyond the amsel sky
Upon the purple path I fly

Blooming Bliss

A dew-kissed blade of morning grass,
Embellished in shiny drops of liquid glass,
In the field of earth-scented golden daisies,
Opened up to the shimmering misty skies,
Unravelling hope as the sunrays dance.

There are glimpses of paints from distant lands,
That have color of sands from the brighter strands,
The sweet sublime fragrance now fills up the air,
Scintillating glory so radiant and rare, 
And sings of the bliss across seas and the sands.

A Love for You

There has been a morning 
A morning for You
A morning for me
And an other morning too

For the souls 
That see the beauty of night
And dwell in dreamy paths
Elusively in the cosmic sight

Time that hardly matters
Separates the morning of yours and mine
But the universe spares its glances
For momentous destiny penned by divine

There might be a few stretches of land
Or even the moody seas
The distances etched in sand
Blurring the creases with ease
Or the fickle clouds veiling the skies
And capricious whiffs of wafting air, 
Sometimes tempestuous
But often with a pensive flair

There still will always be the moment
Where rhythms sync and smiles glide by
Where our mornings converse
And evenings upon wishes reply

There will always be moments
Bestowed from heavens above
Where this Love will always be
A beaming journey of our Love
A Love for You
A Love for me

Life, happiness and dreams

"Happiness is not something that happens. It is not the result of good fortune or random chance. It is not something that money can buy or power command. It does not depend on outside events, but rather how we interpret them. Happiness, in fact, is a condition that must be prepared for, cultivated, and defended privately by each person. People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives, which is as close as any of us can come to being happy." 
--Mihaly Csikszentmihayli 



Yeah,its completely true to the tee. I have seen people measuring the level of happiness they are feeling. But I wonder, can happiness be quantitative!? I mean if you are happy, you are just happy and nothing. No other issue, stands between you and your happiness. If you are happy now, forget everything and just be happy. Why mix feelings? Just live the moment. I may seem preachy, but I am telling it out of my own experience.....whenever I am happy and I just stay happy, I feel really happy and everything turns happy and the moment turns out only for me. But, if I try to just give a thought that now I am happy.....as times change....will the moment change for me in the near future.....and guess what? It actually changes.....not because it was destined to, but I made the moment change just because of my thoughts. You see, thoughts really change your life. It makes you happy if you want yourself to be. Oh, I have been blabbering about being happy, happy moments and all happy things. I can't stop myself because the occasion is itself very happy for me. And to add on it has been made precious by my both my parents and friends, people who care for me and are really precious for me. Life is full of such short and sweet moments. We just need to find them and live them to the full. What happens next will be taken care when the appropriate time comes.

Dreams sometimes may make you happy and sometimes may not. But, as I have said before, it all depends on you how you perceive things. Life without a dream is not life at all. We should hold fast to dreams,for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow. Dreams are eternal, dreams are divine. Live your dreams because life is all about living, short and sweet moments.. of your dreams and celebrating every good thing, however small it may be. After all, its just one life to live....and we must live fully!

About Me

My photo
As a blogger, one of the things I am often asked is "How/ When did you get started with all this?" For as long as my memory takes me back, I have always found myself pondering about a plethora of things. I have always loved reflecting on the small but wonderful aspects of life. Ipsita Contemplates has been very special and I love to get the opportunity to share my musings, my thoughts, and my perceptions with you. It is also a way to appreciate the essence of Life!
