ह्रराएको सपानहरु _ केदार श्रेष्ठ

अचम्म,

हराएका छन् सबै मेरा सपनाहरु

सियोझैँ बेपत्ता

एउटा पनि छैन आँखामा

उसलाई भेटे पछि

कुराले मख्ख पारिन्

मनमा पलायो आशा

आशासँगै आँखाको पाठेघरमा

बढ्दै गयो सपनाहरु,

गर्भिणी आँखा

सुत्केरी हुन खोज्दा–खाज्दै

उसले तोडेपछि सम्बन्ध

शिशु सपना

मरेर गयो तुयात्रो लागेर

त्यसपछि आँखा भयो बैला,

मलाई कम्प्यूटरमा

बस्न मन छैन

इन्टरनेट पनि चलाउन मनै छैन

झन् के हेर्नु–

बन्द र हड्तालको गुनगान गाइरहने टेलिभिजन,

विहानै उठेर

आफ्नो प्राकृतिक गाडी

लाग्छु फटाफट

गौरीघाट हुँदै गौशलातिर

सधैँझैँ

अगाडि राखेर बसाहा

हेरिरहेछ पशुपति–

मान्छेका लाशहरु,

हेरिरहेछ रमिता–

मृतकका आफन्तका रोदन अनि प्रदुषित वागमती,

मस्त छिन्

फूल बेच्ने दिदी,

खैरो कपाल नियालिरहेछ

पर–परसम्म आँखा बिछ्याएर

रुद्राक्षको माला बेच्ने बाटो माथिको पसले दाइ,

निस्लाम निद्रामा छन्

जुटको बोरामा बेरिएर

बेसहारा दुई–तीन जना वालकहरु

सडकपेटीमा,

अशक्त वृद्ध–वृद्धाहरु

भीष मागिरहेका छन्

बटुवाहरुसँग,

थुप्रै छन् जेब्राक्रसमा

रोड पार गर्न तम्सिएका मान्छेहरु,

मान्छेको भीडमा

एउटाको पाकेटमारले पाकेट मारेर फरार

अलि पर चौकीको

पोोष्टभित्र बसेर प्रहरी

ताकिरहेको छ राइफल

सबै आ–आफ्नै सूरमा,

भएभरका दृष्यहरु ती

आँखाको आँगनमा

नाचिरहेछ नर्तकी,

मथिङ्गलको अक्करमा

ठोक्किएर चेतना

तितरवितर भए सबै भावनाहरु

मनको घनघोर जंगलमा,

कति देख्छन् होला है

मान्छेहरु मैले जस्तै सपना

तिनीहरुले पनि,

राम्ररी हेर्छु फूलको थुङ्गा

लाग्छ भागेर मान्छेका सपना

सबै जम्मा भएछन् त्यही

सयपत्री फूलको वासनामा लोभिएर

त्यसैले

सपनाविहिन

म

अनि सबै मान्छेहरु।

A Fairy Song

Over hill,over dale,
Thorough bush,thorough brier,
Over park,over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire!
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green;
The cowslips tall her pensioner's be;
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies,fairy favours;
In those freckles, life be saviours;
I must go seek some dew drops here
And hang a pearl in every cowslpi's ear.

BY: WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Release and relief

Life is not always a bed of roses; we have to come across many ups and downs.But we forget like happiness, sorrow is also a part of our life and both of them are temporary. In unhappy situation our mind and body is overshadowed by negative energy. We lose our connection between our thoughtfulness and the reality we face. Thus, releasing this negative energy is must for the peace of mind.
However, for many of us letting go our fear and saddness is very difficult.We often tend to remember bitter experiences for a longer period.When we are hurt we think it is the end of the world and there is no other option left for us.We forget ther is always a bright day waiting for us after the night.For a person in difficult situation it is hard to easily forget and move on in life.but one has to do it sooner or later.One has to place all the pieces together and figure out what went wrong so that in future the path will be much easier and we learn what we actually know what we have to do.
There are many ways people follow to release their tension.Some watch movies , some read or write or exercise or some even eat.Regardless of any technique ane has its own way to let go their sadness and each process and method is right itself. No matter what way we choose all that matters is that wee let go our sadness and take in th e positivity and be optimistic.

May Be True

It is predicted that in near future all the renewable sources of energy like petroleum or coal will exhaust and this will have a huge impact on the world. We are very dependent on these energies.Even if we do not get gas or petroleum for a day our life seems to halt.Thus, it is very painful for us to imagine a day when we will run out of these sources of energy.
We have made a vast development in the field of science and technology and we have also discoverded alternative of oil. The alternative sources are air,water,nuclear ,solar, biomass, biofuels and various gases. These sources will not only fulfil the requirement of the energy but also help to preserve our environment as it doesn't produce toxic gases such as carbondioxide,carbon monoxide that deplets the ozone.By the time the renewable sources will die out we will have discovered other sources of energy.Thus, I believe that we will still be able to survive without petroleum and gaseline.

Going Green

Climate change is one of the greatest concern of the globe.This climate change is feared not only due to rising level of sea or increasing temperature but also due to predictions of many diseases.In Nepal as well as many organizations and clubs have been functioning in order to make people aware of this climate change and make our own little contribution towards making our earth a little better.
even though we are aware and know that we humans are the main cause of earth depletion we still remain silent and prefer being ignorant.Many of us know that in our day to day life we can make small changes but still we don't.We continue to switch on the light even in an empty room.We let the tap open till we find our face wash and toothpaste. To be cool, we take our motorbikes to avoid few minute's walk.
These are just a few examples of the things which we knowingly and unknowingly do.Still these few steps can make a big difference.Refusing and recycling will not only keep our city, surroundings clean but also is economic. Walking will reduce the use of oil and the release of harmful gases and also is a good exercise which we lack in our sedentary life . Using degradable plastic bags or cloth made by plastic bags can be a small effort from our side which will have a bigger impact in our future.In the little spaces around our houses or even in the terrace we can plant green plants which will purify air around us . Therefore, these little actions jointly can bring a bigger change...

My Weaknesses

All of us possess strengths and weaknesses so do I. My friendly nature, fun loving attitude, good sense of humour and easy going nature are my strenghts.These characteristics make me strong and capable to withstand any situation.Talking about my weaknesses, there are quite in number but the major ones are ice-cream, short-temper and television.
Ice-cream.Yummy ice-cream is an easiest and the best way to please me or even bribe me .Vanilla,chocolate ,strawberry, black current,coffee, mango, pineapple and so on. Those are the few flavours I like , but chocolate and vanilla tops my list.They are the best flavour ice-creams made till date.When I lick the ice-cream, the sweetness and the cool feeling that circulates on my body die to my taste buds is unexplainable.The joy I get while eating ice-cream is easily seen on my face.
Another weakness of mine is very short-temper.My family, friends and other close relatives say that anger is on the tip of my nose. I lose my temper over a really minute issue.Sometimes without any reason I get very angry.After I lose my temper I turn a bit destructive. I throw my belongings and later if it breaks or do not think before speaking. And many times I have unknowingly hurt my friends due to this behaviour of mine.
Last but not the least,my weakness is television . I love watching T.V. I can do this for hours an and do not even think about food or sleep. My parents tease me saying that I am glued to T.V. and they wonder if I am not watching. Now I watch it much less than I used to but whenever I get a chance I make a complete use of it and enjoy the greatest invention of technology.

FRIENDS

Apart from family the ones we can trust on and share each and every secret of ours is friends.There might be various definitions of friendship but for me a good friend is the one who loves me for what I am, who is not only my supporter but also a critic.In reality,it isn't easy to find friends, true friends.But I am blessed with few who I pray will be my friends forever.Time spend with them are the most cherished moments of my life. The memory of those moments brings a broad grin across my face. We have had a lot of unforgettable moments and many more are yet to come.
Apart from my parents and family, they are the ones who mean a lot to me.Their support,care and love are my strenghts and I also respect their advices. Whenever I am in trouble , I freely talk to them and work together to find a solution . They help me grow, they help me learn and not repeat the same mistake.Not only my friends help me , I too am always there for my friends.Seeing out each other,s problems and sharing the happiness and secrets has made our bonds even stronger and deeper.
