Signing off from CBE

Dear All

What to tell ?? How to tell ?? I never expected that I will leave the wonderful city Coimbatore within such a short span...but it happened !! Its not that I was in my "high" through out this stay...I had bouts of depression and confusion without which I dont typically exist....
But definitely I discovered myself much more during this stint and had touched my "high"s quite often in this period of stay.... I have too many things to remember and cherish about... !! Suren who came to chennai during Nov 09 is definitely not the same person who went during Jan 09..

Well, I still remember the moment when the announcement of my transfer to chennai was made.... The sweetness in the pin drop silence out of the disbelief and shock of the team brought in a big smile from my colleague, the Center Manager. When he repeated the statement again, there was a meek voice which bounced off " you must be joking !!"..... summed up all the mood of my dear team. What I was doing ?? Staring intensely at the floor carpet helplessly not able to meet any one's eyes....!!

On the same night - after reaching home - I penned a poem bit abstract....in my mind as well as in diary....which was not satisfactory any way. I think it was oct first week and it took more than a month for me to review it and refine it....and make it ready for your eyes...

Before reading the poem, let me gently remind you all that I stayed in CBE roughly for ten months...Here you go....

  1. Did you notice that without your preface/Intro, the above poem of yours does not convey any meaning ? You probably would like to add one more para to all such poems to make it a complete poem of its own. Apart from that - a nice poem with good wordings. Keep up the good work.

  2. Dear Gowri

    Do you think so ?? Infact as I rode back to home after being with you yesterday, I was wondering if the preface is not at all necessary !! "adhe" is sufficient to trigger even a stranger that I want to mean about some phase of the life which lasted for the same period of 10 months....!! In fact the original draft was much longer but I had a strong craving to shorten it....!!
    Thanks for quick feedback
