Advanced Writing

                                                              Advanced Writing                                                                                                                                         The  world  is  shrinking  into  a  global  village  with  economic,  political  and  social  linkages. A new shared  sense  of  identity  and  culture  is  on  full  bloom.  Inorder  to  sustain  oneself  in  such a  competitive  world ,  one  must  adopt  a multi  dimensional  approach.  This  idea  is  in  tune  with the  evolutionary  concept  regarding  “the  survival  of  the  fittest”  (Darwin).  To  stay  rooted  in  a       technology  based  and  highly  competitive  world  one  must  excel  in  developing  and   incorporating  different  skills  and  strategies.                                                                                                                                                                   Advanced  writing  is  one  such  essential  skill  that  every  professional  must  attain  in  his  life  for career  advancement  as  in  today’s  world  effective  communication  plays  an  important  role  in scripting  one’s  success. Writing  indeed  is  a  method  of  communicating  one’s ideas  and  thoughts  to  others. In  a  professional  environment,  employees  are  supposed  to  draft  enormous amount  of  business  letters,  reports  and  other  correspondences. This  mode  of  writing  greatly differs  from  literary  style  by  being  more  structural,  formal  and  rules  bound.                                                                                                        Advanced  writing  involves  different   parameters  and   the  art  of  writing  short  and  clear message  is  one  among  them.This  idea  exists  in  parallel  with  the  expression  “brevity  is  the soul  of  wit”  (Shakespeare).  In  professional  communication,  everything  is supposed  to  be  crisp, clear  and  brief . It  is  highly  advisable  to  maintain  the  decorum  of  writing  to  make  the message  more  clear  and  simple. This  would  add  more  clarity  and  convenience  to  the  message delivered.                                                                                                                                                  The  structural  framework  of  an  excellent  write  up  includes  effective  paragraph  division.  The intial  paragraph  must  be  of  introductory  nature  and  it  is  highly  recommendable  to give  a  brief  insight  to  the  reader  regarding  what  they  are bgoing  to  read  or  learn  in  the  successive paragraphs.  The  first  sentence  in  each   paragraph  must  offer   a  new  idea  or  view  point   to the  reader  and  the  subsequent  sentences  must  be  of  explanatory  kind. A  scholarly  appeal  could  be  induced  into  writing  by  using  relevant  quotes.  Such  illustrations  would  lead  to  better  understanding  of  the  text .                                                                                                           One  must  never  forget  to  acknowledge  or  to  give credits  to  the  sources  from  which  they  have  adopted  words  or  ideas. This  would  help  one  to  resist  oneself  from  committing  the  act of  plagiarism.  Avoiding  plagiarism  by  acknowledging  the  sources  would  indeed  enhance  one’s credibility  as  a  writer.  In  today’s  world  such  acknowledgements  are  of  greater  significance.                                                         Academic  writing  is  not  a  simple  process  as  it  revolves  around  various  written  and  unwritten codes  of  rules  and  norms.  By  strictly  adhering  to  essential requirements  of  scholarly  writing  like  brevity,  clarity,  structural  divisions  and  avoidance  of  plagiarism,   one  is  placing  himself  in  a  higher  pedestal  in  this  highly  competitive  zones  of   academic  and  professional environment.

                           Nature's Daughter

Her happy feet  brushed the Earth with smooth touch.                                                                         Those selfless touches made the young buds  to bloom 

Nature’s musicians were always happy to welcome her 

To awake  earth from her long forgetful sleep

Yes , she was nature’s own daughter, the real one 

Whom the world failed to understand                                                                                                     

As for them she was a mere labourer.

The world was always good in making such fake understandings

So it failed to feel the real devotion of the little girl

Whose service to nature is like a little daughter

Taking care of her ailing mother, Mother Earth!!

B +ve

While looking into the lush thickets

And sipping the nectar of nature

With cool pattings of air on cheeks

And thinking about the nuances of life

There came a shrilled voice

That disrupted my enquiry into greeneries.

With a startled look, I turned my face

To the side from which the voice came.

I saw a figure as dark as a night

With two little twinkling eyes

And a parched face.

The strange lady soon melted out

The coldness of defamiliarization

By her sweet enquiries.

Soon she became a paragon

Of suffering and hope before me

As she untwined her tales

Of unwelcomed miseries and pains.

She asked me to pray for her,

Pray for CANCER patients like her.

My heart was paused for few seconds.

I looked deep into her once again.

Yes she was telling the truth

As I could see few strands of her hair

That stood like an oasis in a desert

When her head scarf slipped away

At the sudden touch of the wind.

I promised her that I will pray.

Few minutes later, I watched

Her descending the steps of bus

With her each confident moves

 She silently proclaimed,

 Always, Be Positive.

BLACK DAY

Their hands floated in the air

While bidding good bye to the dear ones

Their lips softly murmured

That soon they will be back

After getting drenched in the drowsy outpour

Of radiant festive galore.

They were moved by the magical chants

Their eyes glittered at sight of their dear deity

They danced to rhythm of drum beats

And get induced by the fierce steps of the oracles.

Finally, at the peak of exhilaration and excitement

There burst thousands of crackers

To ornate the dark ,blue black sky

With many a shining and colourful patterns

But suddenly everything came to standstill

Cries of joy turned into shrilled and numb voices of pain.

The festive charms of the season

Dissolved into the thick layers of black smoke

They cried for help

Scattered into different directions

To find out  an exit door to life

But all their attempts failed.

They failed to keep the promises

Given to their dear ones

Waiting for them in distant lands

As the fate played a cruel game

That sealed their final doom.

Truth of Life

With a loud cry we came to this world

But goes from here even without a silent whisper

We came here as pure as an angel

But goes as a black dare devil

Where have all the purity and innocence gone ??

Are they locked inside some danger boxes

Guarded by some unkind monsters

So that once lost, it’s lost forever

But remember one thing

We came here empty-handed

And returns empty handed

Knowledge about this mere fact

Could bring as back to truth

The truth of being a human being

Magical Memories Reloaded

The cries of jubilation has ended 
with the nightly song of crickets 
pouring their heart out into 
the darkened zones of earth
Few moments past
the world was covered
in the blooming blossoms of love
and every sweet heart 
burning in the magical flames of love 
But the swift passage of time
vanquished the glittered spells of love
and cleared the red rose paths
with the cool and gentle breezes 
that the silent night brings
Even though the silent night has killed
the love and laughter of many hearts
but evergreen memories can never fade away
as they are sealed safe in  inner chambers
of human heart, the seat of everlasting moments
