CHENGA PENJOR's JOURNEY

Surrounded by the Areca Nut trees, Nothing to be seen around, Every household busy with their own business, The cool breeze blowing the tall trees, Birds chirping whole day long, Dogs roaming with their own way, People with the guts to smile back, Hello to everyone with a pat on their shoulder, Cattle satisfied with the wintergreen grass, Grazing peacefully in the paddy field, Drinking the fresh water of Taklai, Young boys and girls playing and running with their speed, Making turns to look after the herds, When one goes for Lunch, Some busy playing football, volleyball, Mostly, nowadays busy with Cell Phones; Reminiscing on the old memories of mine, Sneaking quietly in the corner with my books, When all were busy enjoying;  Weather was cool with the evening breeze, Boys meet together after exams, Exchanging thoughts and plans for the next day, As the sun sets in the Southern Hemisphere, A beauty of nature reveals the best, With the c

Gammon rushing with Bills in hand, Solving every part with a rush, My EE reminding me not to hush, Gammon want it fast, Nakul maintaining his coolness; Having done with the work, Put up my leave consent from EE, Put up the Notesheet for New Year Eves budget, Recommended from Chief and forwarded it to DT, Fingers crossed ended my day; Got information from the known source, Having blocked the way at Roetala, By a falling Boulder to be cleared using explosives, Deferred our timing at 9:00AM, Actually planned at 6:30AM; Joined by Drakpa and family, Informing us in the morning, Together we started our journey; In our mind, we got a common Doubt, Whether block was cleared or not, Fortunately, we encountered with the line of Vehicles, By the time we reached Langthel; Crossed the block without any problem, It was scary at first, crossed with confidence; Lunchtime at Tama, Different menus f

Done with the Eighth standard common exam, A year when the militants were flushed out, No one to stand nearby him, Done with flying colors in all subjects; Not wasting any time further, Though no one to advise this little boy, No one to guide the fragile and immature mind, Took the Notes of the seniors, Prepared himself during the vacation, During the time of herding cattle; When everybody was busy playing joyfully, Enjoying the reunions with their friends, Alone under the shades of a tree, In the middle of the paddy field, There he was always busy; Studying at one time, Reading at the other, Writing sth on another day; The turning point of his life, The tenth standard; Everyone got to prepare well, Physically weak in health, Mentally less in advice, Emotionally feeble in heart, Noticing everyone with their parents; Supporting them for the big day, Encouraging them, motivating the

Sonam Yoesel Thayeden Thou shall be my best friend, I shall be indebted for thy companion; I like the way it flows, Never-ending ocean shall our ship sail; Roaring with the storms, Fighting with the waves, Hurdling with the currents, Together we shall overcome all the obstacles. Holding your soft hand, Touching your cute little cheeks, Mending your smooth short hair, Caressing your cute little ear, Feeling your small soft lips, Kissing your cute little forehead, Resting you in my arms, Whispering you with the words “I Love You”; With all my heart and soul, Wishing you a good night and sound sleep, Carefully putting you down on your pillow, With your Doll beside thee; Holding your back, hugging thee tight, Patting you lightly with my warmth; Dreams about you falling, Checking on you with perturbing, Thayeden with her pose Realizing it a strange dream, Making me hold you tight,

I understand the Hydropower system similar to the plumbing system arranged at our residence. I tried explaining to everyone who I come in contact but then I can see the dubious face at the end of our talk. They tend to nod their heads with yes, agreed but when questioned, I can see them smiling looking at me.  However, I make sure that they are convinced at the end with a happy smile on their face. I want to recapitulate the same statement here and I wish the readers will not misconstrue. Firstly, I want to take you all to my crazy imaginary world. Okie, now let’s start with the vision that you own a building which has four units and each unit got to have six pipelines connected. The most essential in our home is water so we look for the source of the water high above, for the simple reason that it flows along with the gravity. The water source shall be trapped in the form of a Water Tank built nearby. There may be sediments, foreign substances and it should be settled down b

Thayeden with her Grandpa My daughter who is 2 years and 4 months old, given a choice to choose between us, she instantly rejects her Grandma and her Mom. When it comes to choosing between her Grandpa and her Apa, she reluctantly chooses her Apa first and Grandpa next. The bond between her and Grandpa, the care they both share, the understanding they possess, the language they talk, the action they do, are all hard for me to understand. They both cope up very impressively. She very well knows how to make him engage with her play toys. She cares him to the extent of kissing him, hugging him and teasing him. They are really bonded and they make a perfect friend. She has no hesitation to ask him anything and I see him obediently following the command. Whenever she got to do something that will result in our scolding, she holds her Grandpa’s hand and drags him to the bedroom. That may be one reason to love him. She calls him “Maii-May, Maii-May” and if there wasn’t any response she c

HRT Team at Adit-III If it was to ask the employees of any company, any organization or corporation that "when is the most memorable moment created together with your colleagues?" Most certainly they will say, “the annual picnic”, “the get-together party” or it may be the trip spent together. MHPA is an organization where neither there will be an Annual Picnic nor there will be a get-together party to cherish. MHPA is set up in such a way that the offices of different complexes are separated and scattered as far as 50 KM. We hardly meet together. Forget about other complexes, within our own complex, we find it difficult to meet as all are busy with our own duties. Nevertheless, today, the whole MHPA employee came together as a team to clean the whole stretch of HRT. Excavation of HRT, a 13.5 KM long is completed on 15 th March 2017 with the daylighting of Face 4 & 5 and Face 6 & 7. Within this span of time, Overt and Invert Lining has been completed. The

With sky all smiling above, And clouds filled with love; Glorified with stars twinkling, Beautiful nightingales around, tinkling. The night filled with the wind was chilling, A heart filled with warmth was thrilling; In the midst of bizarre, There goes a shooting star. Believed to be a good omen, Making a wish is what they do in Roman; Disappearing in a blink of an eye, Couldn’t wish anything than to cry. Expected the same, the next night, Gone are those stars without a light; Leaving is also an art of loving, But waiting like ages is too daring. Walking down the other night, Cold breeze & Gloomy clouds to fight; Thundering & lightening followed with drizzling, Remembering the cold lips out there trembling. Memories of that shooting star, A heart filled with the melody of the guitar; Regrets of not have wished, Haunts, that seldom pinched. In a silent night of winter, Barking dogs

There once lived a girl, too shy to know the world around her was busy with other stories, too gentle in the eyes of her parents, too loyal for her friends that they failed to recognize and too optimistic for her teachers. Time was too young then and it flies with her group friends. She got the best of the best friends in her group not realizing that one of them gonna change her life. She got to know each one better with time. Together, they spent their younger days with lots of memories. The time has come along their life’s pathway, for them to depart. They parted with the promises which some of it are yet to be kept. It was really unfortunate, for one of their friends ended up with Drugs unknowingly. It only made it worse when she came to know that the one was the one who was meant for her.  It was years that they shared a soft corner without realizing, they both felt the same. It was puppy love at first but then with each moment spent together, it came out to be True Love. The

Air-filled with Sandy, The weather  was Windy; Bother less was that Lady, Holding tight was her Candy.  As she chews her Candy, The weather became too calmly.  As she wipes with her Hanky, I’m there getting too Cranky.  Off she goes with speed, I believe it’s my creed; For I’m of my deed, That I can’t supersede.  Raised my head for the last Glance, Thud my head with window Glass.  Opened my eyes with morning beam, Only to find, it was my DREAM .
