The Way to Beautiful
The other day, I had a visitor who read this entry I posted in https://alittletimewithshobana.blogspot.com, so I thought I would re-post it here. Hope you enjoy! (From my book “Walking Through Beauty, Timeless Footsteps”)
The Way to Beautiful
What attracts a man to a woman?
Her gentleness,
Her soft tenderness,
Her gracefulness,
Her appealing daintiness.
A charmer on a quest, his eyes seeked a beauty,
Who woke his senses, like the touch of gentle rain.
His heartbeat was irrational, much like the flickers of twinkling stars,
When she smiled, it reminded him of the first sign of dawn,
Flawless, Awakening, Mesmerizing.
His eyes sought her thoughts.
The way to beautiful,
Is not an easy route,
It plays music with your heart, and attires your mood,
To look as beautiful as the morning dew,
Is to have magic in your soul.
The way to beautiful,
Begins with a heart as pure as gold,
With eyes that color the world,
With a smile that lifts weariness,
And, a touch as light as the feathers of a bird,
So light, it makes you float, and not feel the ground,
Much like leaving imprints everlasting on sands of time.

Hidden In The Crevices Of Time
There are times when certain events in life stay imprinted in the sub-conscious mind, only to surface when you least expect it.
There are times when past incidences create an altogether new awakening, other than what you believe it to be.
This is the story of Stacy, who is suddenly besieged by flashbacks of an accident she was involved in as a two-month old baby.
She sees dark images, and gory scenes of the accident, which infuses fear and confusion in her mind. As a result, she experiences blackouts.
She seeks the aid of her neighbor, a retired nurse, to get out of her frightening situation.
However, they soon discover that there is a disturbing reason behind those flashbacks.
It relates to a past hidden in the crevices of time.
