Suswagatam

Till this time I felt that death of a life partner is the most painful event. But then I saw one of my friend going through the divorce process. At that time I felt, even after having your partner with you, he/she is not with you. I think that is more painful.

सुस्वागतम

नुसते डोळे बंद केले तरी

तुझे उष्ण श्वास जाणवतात
नुसता तुझा रुमाल पाहून
माझे डोळे पाणावतात



ओळखीचे लोक भेटले की
त्यांचे डोळे काही खुणावतात
तुझ चुकल का माझ?

असले प्रश्न मला सतावतात


घरभर पसरलेल्या तुझ्या वस्तू
निदान कपाटात ठेवता येतात
आयुष्यभर पसरलेल्या आठवणी
कधी कोणाला सावरता येतात?


आठवतय आपल्या माळयावरच
चिमणा चिमणीच घरट
चिमणा उडून गेलाय आता
वाटतय एकट एकट


घर सोड़ल शहर सोड़ल
आठवणी पाठ सोडत नाहीत
काही धागेच इतके चिवट असतात
तोडू म्ह्न्ट्ल तरी तुटत नाहीत


मृत्युने दूर केल असत तर
भान्ड़्लो असतो यमराजाशी
एकदा तरी मागे वळून बघ
अजूनही सुस्वागतम लिहिलय दाराशी.

Kinara



Tuza vichar achanak yeto
Manacha tal dhavlun jato
Manatun ek laat uthate
Dolyachya paryant alagad pochte
Mag athavata tula dilele vachan
Tu jatana dileli sakta takeed
Dolyanchya kadancha hoto kinara
Pani yeu naye mhanun tyancha pahara
Pan tithparyant yaychi tyala mubha ahe
Pan tithun pudhe gela tar saja ahe

Pan panyala kinaryachach ved laglay
Charchaughat kinaryavar yeu laglay
Khara tar thopavla pahije tyala manatach
Mhanje fajiti vhayla nako janatach
Pan manane dekhil aikaycha sodalay
Tuch oahije mhanun hatta dharun basalay.

Ugachach paulancha vedh ghyayla dhavtay
Nasalelya shabdancha sanvaad vhayla pahtay
Athavani tar ahet tuza astitva kuthay ?
Onjalit sukh ahe pan man matra ritay.

Ikde tikde saglikade tuza sparsh vikhurlay
Awarayla gele sagla tar pasarach vadhlay
“Mi ani tu kahi vegla ahe ka?’ kon bolala?
Athavaninchya darwajacha daar koni kholala
Ek chukar themb tapkan galun padla
Kavitechi ek oal fiskatun gela
Ashach sarya athavani pusta yeil ka ?
Sara lakshat theun mala hasta yeil ka?

Maam

Maam.. Good Morning..
Hello.. Maam..
Maam I have one doubt...

I was not used to this a month before.. I changed my profession last month.. When I was working with the indusrty it was a different experience. Boss.. Junior.. Senior.. was used to these relations.. But when I stood as a lecturer it was altogether different experience. I thought its easy just teach them whatever I have learnt. Thats it.

But when I joined then I started realising that the job of a teacher is not that easy. Your students make u feel that u r their Idol. They assume that u r perfect, u know everything from this great world. Many times I was also stuck up with some querries. Then there was a pressure on me between the expectations from the students and my knowledge. You think that you are driving the lecture but some times students take u on ride n u r lost. Now I hav learnt to handle these situations..

Truly its a different experience. I remember one of our teacher used to say "I am friendly but I am not your friend" That time we made a joke of it.. but now I understand the meaning of this sentense. Its very difficult to draw that line between you n your students. You should be friendly but at the same time you should maintain the respect. Otherwise its not possible to teach.


Yes ... am enjoying my new field.. One experience to share with you. Last week I was observing that one student was behaving very arrogantly. I decided to teach him a lesson. I asked him to solve one problem on board. I thought he will hesitate. But he came with full confidence. The sum was a difficult one but he solved it correctly. Then I was commentless. (khara tar mazach popat zala)Rather than me teaching him a lesson he taught me a lesson "That never assume that the other person does not know anything, he might know more than you"
watch out this place for some new experiences...


Mrunalini Maam.............
