Rarely did he attend parties
Rarely did he speak with strangers
Rarely did he meet one he liked
Rarely did beauty affect him so
Rarely did he extend his hand
Rarely did he have a number written on it
Rarely did he walk with a spring in his step
Rarely did he not hide his smile
Rarely did he slip on the road
Rarely did his palms get wiped clean
Rarely did his luck favor him
An attempt to capture the essence of my thoughts and put them in bearable prose, or worse (as the unimaginative pun indicates). Not too different from my scribbles on paper, only a lot more legible.

Ohhh! Wow..
Rarely do I say this nowadays, but you have got such a gift!
@RTD2: Rarely do I get to hear that from you, so here's the rare thanks :-)
Nice!
Here is alternate happy ending :)
Rarely did he smile on missed opportunities
Rarely did he sing when the Universe conspired
Rarely did he get a ride offered by a stranger
Surely he found his destiny again!
autobiographical? :-)
@Abhishek: That's an interesting alternate ending. Very optimistic :-)
@Stone: No :-)
Wow! Thats a nice one
Rarely does Parth disappoint
Rarely does his poems are bad.
Rarely does he not write from the heart
Rarely do I stop to think, Is this Parth's life!
@Pilgrim: Thanks for the poetic compliment :-) While its not autobiographical, it seems like a bitter-sweet story that people wouldn't mind encountering, judged on the response.
Rarely, did he understand the meaning of high frequency
nice one
*aaaaaaaaaa* i've cracked under the strain of all those rarelies.
@Kappa : Thanks :-)
@Nocturne: Rare occurence, this cracking of yours? :-)
but a nice sentiment, P. one more poem, and we'll think you're in love. :)
@Nocturne: :-) Maybe a depressing dark poem should settle matters. Actually that won't happen next, because a short story has been forming in my mind (actually I only the first two lines, but I am hoping the rest will also flow through when I start typing).
Rarely am I disappointed when I stop by :)
rarely does he get burnt
@Jyothsna, Wannabe Mom: Thanks :-)
