hello aryaji,
 sometime ur signature carries << Arya of the Hills. >>
 please throw some light on the "of the hills" part.

 <<A True Friend? Or a profound Lover?>>
 a profoundly loving true friend  - - best of both worlds ;-)
 isi baat par ek poem likh raha hoon. my first modest attempt on nukkad i
believe. aryaji aap se inspiration le kar yeh kaam shuru kar raha  hoon.

 Within you Without you (title inspired by beatles - - poem original)

 treading on the paths of life with thoughts in mind
   pondering over maters of the intimate kind
 i wonder what if true would make my world end
   the lack of a lover or the lack of a friend

 many a virtues & skills a friend teaches
   the lover makes it to the inner reaches
 a friend shares moments both heavy and light
    a lover can placate when u crave at night
 sorrows in your life a friend purges
    a lover handles your basic urges.
 how do i keep one of these and ask one to go
    when both are important and equally so

 but hey wait ,how can it be
   that a profound lover is not a friend to me
 the lover who gets so deep in your heart
   has got to be a friend for a start
 these two souls into one they join
   caring for both your mind and groin
 but some thought now hits me like a stone
  what if i have none n am left all alone??

the title of the poem inspired by "the beatles" reminds me of a song called
"in my life" by the same group whose lyrics are pasted below.someone sitting
back in 1960 in a small club called cavern in liverpool could hardly have
imagined that the four young guys playing in front would shake the world of
music someday.it was a long sojourn from initial love songs ,to experimental
pshychedelia to the spiritual white albums but then that is the stuff
history is made of.bands come and bands go but the fab four shall reign in
peoples heart for ever.

In My Life (by "The Beatles)
<< With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all.
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these mem'ries lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more.

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more.
In my life I love you more.>>






 <<Will I ever find my real name?>>
 whats in a name a rose by any name smells as sweet.
 else u can emulate captain "NEMO"(latin for "no name") of the 20,000
leagues under the sea fame.
