Drift

"Life is not always like the spring and summer, it is only complete when caressed 

by winter and storms ... 

Times change things, situations and people! Sometimes the past seems brighter 

than the dark present...“

Walking in aisle of memory lane,

Those peaceful times with zero pain.

How I wish I was the same single woman,

Feels like I am shot down by a bloody gun.

    Falling in love was out of my life's syllabus,

    I abided by it without a fuss.

    Tired of justifying that I really was single,

    Erasing the only word in my dictionary - 'Mingle'.

Contradicting and breaking my beliefs and ethics,

I fell in love and emotions were a mix,

'Twas the best miracle that ever happened to me,

Life was never so full of glee.

    Today I look back at every single blow,

    I can feel my heart beat getting slow.

    For the dedication and love this was my gift,

    From the dark present to the peaceful past, I needed to drift.

Happie B'day Maa

"My first poem to my only power woman! 

The one who gave me life and told me how beautiful it was!

She has been one of the extraordinary people I've ever seen.

The only woman who understood me when I did not know how to speak!

She is the Woman who is the 'Beauty with Brains'! On her special day, I began to ink"

"Amma" was the first word, I uttered after birth,

You've known me since before I crash landed mother earth.

Mom is the most precious gift a child could possess

Since childhood you've always been my only graceful Goddess!

            You look so young, despite your age,

            You're so kind and pure like the sage-

            Words fall short to describe what you are to me

            With you around my life is filled with over-pouring Glee.

With your love, care and heartfelt blessings,

I strived for perfection with your guidance.

You've been my friend, mentor and more,

When I’m hurt, your words were the best cure.

            Oh my Mom, I am lucky and I love you a lot

            You mean so much to me and what not!

            All I pray to God is to keep you Happy and Healthy

            Your well-being is what makes me most Wealthy.

A very happy Birthday Amma!!!
