POETRY

Pliant mind

I met a girl
The conversation was pleasant
She was tall, elegant and brown curls
I thought she was good and decent.
Later I told my friends
          About my new acquaintance
               Every detail till the meeting end
                                           But by her description they showed reluctance.
They told me she was a cruel person
Lying, rude and god knows what
They wanted me to shun
Her presence as she was hated by my lot.
So I met her again
With preconception
I thought she was a pain
So I had unfriendly conversation.
Later I was talking to my teacher
Unknowingly this new girl topic arose
My teacher praised her
She was so good from head to toes.
Now I was confused
I talked to many people
And my decision changed
The image formation of her was not simple.
Then a though came to me
How come my judgment changed on her?
It’s so strange and I see somehow
It’s no fault of her.
I am so weak willed
That my mind changes with every idea I get
I am a chameleon
I have to be determined
To not form prejudices and preconceptions and let
People make my mind flexible.
I will meet that girl again
And start afresh also disable

Preconception that caused her pain.

Pink Is For Girls And Blue Is For Boys, Why?

Now it sort of like a norm with everything pink customized for women and depicting feminity whereas blue and darker colours depicted masculinity.   Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I have written in this platform but I am grateful to all of you who have kept coming to this page and enjoying my world.  As I was deciding what to wear for my birthday in May I saw this pink dress which I had bought for Holi which I hadn’t worn because of the whole pandemic. I was still searching if I could find something else I could where instead of that pink dress when a thought came into my mind, Why am I not wearing pink? Since we are born somehow it is seen that if it’s a girl everything is pink and if it’s a boy everything is blue. Even for gender reveal parties and stuff this colour coordination is used. As the child grows up from birthday parties to clothes to room colours, everything is either pink or blue based on the gender. I guess me not liking pink was sort of a rebellion...

My love for Harry potter

My love for Harry Potter is immense.  Harry Potter is not just a book being turned into a film but for me it is the key of opening me to the world of fiction writing. When I was small I used to fear Harry Potter and other fiction films as they were full of darkness and whenever they used to come, I would've switched it off. I used to get bad dreams. My dear friend opened me to the world of Harry Potter and I am truly grateful to her for this. I love to read books so she suggested me to read Harry Potter. I was scared obviously but ultimately after a lot of persuasion issued the first part from the library. While doing so i thought I was out of my mind but I slowly started reading it. I was completely amazed by the book. It opened a whole new world to me. I was mesmerized by it. This world of wizards coexisted so well with the modern world that I fell in love with it. Eventually I began reading all the books and people laugh at me but really I cried when professor dumbledo...
