Dreams & Beyond!!


I guess somewhere between my Rum
& my marriage I had a dream

I guess somewhere between an open jeep
& my dream I had a dream

I guess somewhere between the end of the month
& my birth I had a dream

I guess somewhere between Pune & Kerala
& my life I had a dream

I guess somewhere between the 90’s
& my dilemmas I had a dream

I guess somewhere between 301 & 106
& my heart I had a dream

I guess somewhere between a flute
& my keyboard I had a dream

I guess somewhere between Aju & Ranj
& 6 decades I had a dream
I guess somewhere between ‘n’  kitchens
& a lifetime I had a dream

I guess somewhere between our happiness
& a temple I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my sisters
& a life I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my brothers
& a soul I had a dream

I guess somewhere between the kids
& a love I had a dream

I guess somewhere between a desert
& my greenlands I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my colours
& my choices I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my wishes
& my wishes I had a dream


I guess somewhere between my voice
& my liberty I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my right
& my wrong I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my decisions
& my happiness I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my dal
& my sambar I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my thoughts
& my decisions I had a dream

I guess somewhere between my travels
&my family I had a dream

I guess somewhere between a lifetime
& my grandchildren I had a dream

I guess somewhere between a city
&the countries I had a dream


I guess somewhere is where I can choose
&still say to the world I had a dream

This is us, my Acha ,
my Amma
& their dream!!
Their Dream!!
