Thirst

They sowed the divine seed,

For I was added to the next generation’s need

As I bud to bloom with principles and creed,

My first quenching of thirst was Mother’s breastfeed.

 

I crawl, I stammer, I fall, I hold,

For a lesson to grow none have told

As I start to leap many a fold,

My quenching of thirst was to know how to be bold.

 

I start to go to school,

For knowledge being a necessary tool

As I learn to not become a fool,

My quenching thirst was to jump into the knowledge pool.

 

I begin to make friends,

For not less helping hands they lend

As the petty fights start to mend,

My quenching of thirst was to learn not to depend.

 

I realize the reason for the seed sown,

For the realities of life are often shown

As I digest the truth known,

I find the quenching of thirst will never end to ages grown. 


Roads

 

Roads:


I see the road narrow,

for I wade a straight path

I contemplate on tomorrow’s sorrow,

Measuring the distance is a complex math.

 

I see the road perilously curvy,

For the path is filled with twisted turns

The experiences turn groovy,

Lessons for life the soul learns.

 

A sense of silence in the narrow road,

A sense of ecstasy in the curvy road

Into the petals of peace should I board?

Or the amount of ecstasy should I load?

 

A narrow road never ends,

Curvy road never mends

Choices are two in life,

Travel in peace or in ecstasy at rife.

 

I arrived at the crossroads,

Narrow at the left, Curves at the right

The road less traveled, my heart boards

For the darkness in the path, Nature holds the light

Nature holds the light..!

Girl

 

Girl:

From growing up as a female gender,

To all encompassing emotion lender

From handling the no nods,

To stretching past the mighty odds

From making male buddies,

To excelling them in studies

From making them friends,

To the wrong signal it sends

From foreseeing hence,

To adding “In” before dependence

From tying knot on marriage,

To seeing self in a bird’s cage

From deviations standing profuse,

To divinely reproduce

From surpassing the labour room might,

To the seed’s striking sight

From responsibilities mounting high,

To melting down when kids cry

From day routines irk,

To soothing at work

From returning home tired,

To the bonding at home getting wired

From facing society’s dispersion,

To wiping off the negative aspersion

From start to end in life we swirl,

It is hard to grow up as a girl

It is hard to grow up as a girl..!

Warmth

Emotions are merciless waves, 
Peddle your arms and swim
For the footmark on the shore it paves, 
to wet and leave salt water dry is its whim. 

Fingers are weapons to wipe, 
for not less the salt water drool
To nurture the emotions to ripe, 
is to see the tide of waves cruel. 

Nerves are tangled complex to unknot,
For the memories seldom fade
lay down, shut your pupil, you'll eventually snort,
wake up, look straight and briskly wade.

There will be stones for you to hit,
for not less pressure would mount
There will be lights given for you to lit,
choose on what is paramount.

Calmness is persistent after any tide, 
for flowers bloom even after a storm
Let kindness spread far and wide, 
Let love always stay warm
Let love always stay warm..!

Trees and clouds: A Romance

Rainy days are a fairy tale,
For I see trees are men
The day turns dark and pale
Like the angel in white, I see clouds are women.

The trees with its arm, waves,
The cradled cloud strikes a look
Path to love, the wind paves
Rain stops for them to hook.

The curly haired angel floats down
The elegant man stretches his arm
A knitting hug to keep 'em warm
The wind looks them with a puzzled frown. 

The clouds as mist mingles with the trees
For not less they see them on cloud nine 
The trees holding to roots bends his knees
Longing to make the love shine. 

Sun rises again from the east
For the love bloomed goes in vain
As they see the sun has committed a hiest 
The blessing from above comes again as rain. 
The love from above showers again as rain..!

For a While

Ecstacy swirls you around,
Depth in joy fervently profound
As we wade a certain mile,
Everything is
For a while,
For a while,
For a while.

The beam of struggles peel your skin, 
You yourself turn your akin
As hussles stock A pile
Everything is 
For a while, 
For a while, 
For a while. 

People come and go, 
develop not to see them a foe 
Let them flow as the Nile
Everyone are
For a while, 
For a while, 
For a while. 

The meaning of life, 
Is not see everything at rife
As we finally exile
This life is
For a while, 
For a while, 
For a while. 

Words from rain

Drops from the cloud, 
fills my windowpane
Why do you shroud? 
I asked, 
I see you are in pain, 
droplets answered. 

I see myself tears from above, 
I see clouds throwing me away
I see the wind unapologetically shove 
I see I am meek enough to sway. 

I see I waveringly flow, 
I see there are no directions to show
I see I drop from high to low
I see I make the day less a glow. 

Yes, I am here to give you my multiple arms
I see I quench people's thirst 
I see you can drench with no qualms
I see I am considered the elixir of life 
I see you hold pain in your palms
I want to see you being the rain
I want you to overcome the pain 
I want you to be the rain
I want you to be the rain.
