Though his grandfather won four caps for Scotland and his father played professionally there, the Aberdeen-born Fulham rookie - who was transplated to Perth aged 11 - is now cleared to make his debut for Paul Okon's Australia U-20s side in Myanmar in October as it bids to qualify for the 2015 U-20s World Cup in New Zealand.

Heavily courted by the Scots - for whom he played three times at youth level - Burgess, 18, said he was more than happy to have pledged his allegence to the green and gold.

"I consulted with my family and all those who have been close to me and they didn't really try and influence me one way or another - and just said that the decision was mine to make," said Burgess, who has made four senior appearnces for Felix Magat's struggling Fulham side so far this season.

"The message was that it was down to me and they would support any decison I made - and I know this is the right one. The clearance has come through now and I am really pleased with that.

Air Max 2013 Women "It's good to have got it out of the way now."

Grandafther Campbell Forsyth was a goalkeeper in the 1960s for Scotland during a career which saw him play for St Mirren, Kilmarnock and Southampton while dad Stuart was at Albion Rovers, East Fife, Falkirk and Kilmarnock.

Burgess even trained with Aberdeen and Celtic as a kid and still has a Scottish flavour to his accent.

A part of an Australia U-20s camp in Dubai earlier this year, the former Perth Glory junior has long been on the radar of Okon and Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou even confirmed after this week's 3-2 win over Saudi Arabia that he was tracking him with a view to a possible call up.

"I have spoken to them (the Young Socceroos coaching staff) and I am definitely available for the squad in October and hope to be called up," he added.

"When I was at the camp with the team in Dubai that made a big impression on me and really got me thinking and it went on from there really. Who knows, maybe I will get to play for the Socceroos one day."

Burgess's run in the Cottagers's first team came to an end after Fulham's 5-1 loss at Derby County in late August, but he is hoping to be restored to the first team squad for Sunday's (AEST) visit to Reading, where fellow Australians Ryan Edwards and Adam Federici will be waiting in the opposition ranks.

Air Max 2013 for sale "I've just been battling away and trying to get myself back in," said Burgess. "We've had a difficult start to the season but I think we've turned the corner a bit (with a League Cup win over Brentford and a draw with Cardiff) and we're getting things back on track.

"We're back from the international break now and raring to go again. I would be absolutely delighted to be in the squad but will just have work hard at training and see what happens.

"Obviously, like me, Ryan is a Perth boy and we talk from time to time and it would be good to see him again."

परिक्षा

होती है आज के युग मे भी परिक्षा !



अग्नि ना सही

अंदेशे कर देते है आज की सीता को भस्मीभूत !



रिश्तों की प्रत्यंचा पर सदा संधान लिए रहेता है वह तीर जो स्त्री को उसकी मुस्कुराहट, चूलबलेपन ओर सबसे हिलमिल रहेने की काबिलियत पर गडा जाता है सीने मे !



परीक्षा महज एक निमित थी

सीता की घर वापसी की !



धरती की गोद सदैव तत्पर थी सीताके दुलार करने को!

अब की कुछ सीता तरसती है माँ की गोद !

मायके की अपनी ख्वाहिशो पर खरी उतरते भूल जाती है, देर-सवेर उस… Continue

इसी बहाने मेरे आसपास रहने लगे मैं चाहता हूं कि तू भी उदास रहने लगे

कभी कभी की उदासी भली लगी ऐसी कि हम दीवाने मुसलसल उदास रहने लगे

अज़ीम लोग थे टूटे तो इक वक़ार के साथ किसी से कुछ न कहा बस उदास रहने लगे

तुझे हमारा तबस्सुम उदास करता था तेरी ख़ुशी के लिए हम उदास रहने लगे

उदासी एक इबादत है इश्क़ मज़हब की वो कामयाब हुए जो उदास रहने लगे

Evergreen love

*પ્રેમમય આકાંક્ષા*



અધૂરા રહી ગયેલા અરમાન

આજે પણ

આંટાફેરા મારતા હોય છે ,

જાડા ચશ્મા ને પાકેલા મોતિયાના

ભેજ વચ્ચે....



યથાવત હોય છે

જીવનનો લલચામણો સ્વાદ ,

બોખા દાંત ને લપલપતી

જીભ વચ્ચે



વીતી ગયો જે સમય

આવશે જરુર પાછો.

આશ્વાસનના વળાંકે

મીટ માંડી રાખે છે,

ઉંમરલાયક નાદાન મન



વળેલી કેડ ને કપાળે સળ

છતાંય

વધે ઘટે છે હૈયાની ધડક

એના આવવાના અણસારે.....



આંગણે અવસરનો માહોલ રચી

મૌન… Continue

जिन्दा हों तो जिंदगी कि मिसाल बनो

जिन्दा हों तो जिंदगी कि मिसाल बनो

झूठ का साथी नहीं सच का सवाल बनो

यूँ तो जलती है माचिस कि तीलियाँ भी

बात तो तब है जब धहकती मशाल बनो



रोक लो तूफानों को यूँ बांहो में भींचकर

जला दो गम का लम्हा दिलों से खींचकर

कदम दर कदम और भी ऊँची उड़ान भरो

जिन्दा हों तो जिंदगी कि मिसाल बनो

झूठ का साथी नहीं सच का सवाल बनो



यूँ तो अक्सर बातें तुझ पर बनती रहेंगी

तोहमते तो फूल बनकर बरसा ही करेंगी

एक एक तंज पिरोकर जीत का हार करो

जिन्दा हों तो जिंदगी… Continue

नो मोर पिंक

क्या रंग किसी का व्यक्तित्व परिभाषित कर सकता है नीला है तो लड़का गुलाबी है तो लड़की का रंग सुनने में कुछ अलग सा लगता है हमारे कानो को लड़कियों के सम्बोधन में अक्सर सुनने की आदत है.लम्बे बालों वाली लड़की साड़ी वाली लड़की तीख़े नयन वाली लड़की कोमल सी लड़की गोरी इत्यादि इत्यादि

कियों जन्म के बाद जब जीवन एक कोरे कागज़ की तरह होता हो चाहे बालक हो बालिका हो उनको खिलौनो तक में श्रेणी में बाँट दिया जता है लड़का है तो कार से गन से खेलेगा लड़की है तो गुड़िया ला दो बड़ी हुई तो डांस सिखा दो जैसे… Continue

यूँ ही मिल जाती जिंदगी तो क्या बात थी

यूँ ही मिल जाती जिंदगी तो क्या बात थी
मुश्किलों ने तुझे पाने के काबिल बना दिया
न रुलाती तू मुझे अगर दर्द मे डुबो डुबो कर
फिर खुशियों की मेरे आगे क्या औकात थी
तूने थपकियों से नहीं थपेड़ो से सहलाया है
खींचकर आसमान मुझे ज़मीन से मिलाया है
मेरी चादर से लम्बे तूने मुझे पैर तो दें डाले
चादर को पैरों तक पहुंचाया ये बड़ी बात की
यूँ ही मिल जाती जिंदगी तो क्या बात थी
मुश्किलों ने तुझे पाने के काबिल बना दिया

वो जो हँसते हुए दिखते है न लोग
अक्सर वो कुछ तन्हा से होते है
पराये अहसासों को लफ़्ज देतें है
खुद के दर्द पर खामोश रहते है
जो पोछतें दूसरे के आँसू अक्सर
खुद अँधेरे में तकिये को भिगोते है
वो जो हँसते हुए दिखते है लोग
अक्सर वो कुछ तन्हा से होते है
