HOPE

HOPE is in...
... a smiling face,
... a motherly hug,
... a warm handshake,
... a pair of sparkling eyes,
... a true friend,
... love in one's heart,
... the elegant sunshine,
... a blooming flower,
... a buzzing bee,
... a colorful butterfly,
... a fresh new leaf,
... smell of wet earth,
... dew drops on a leaf,
... chirping little birdies,
... a bright blue sky,
... a gurgling river,
... the lone north star,
... silence of the night,
... ticking of a clock,
... a new dawn,
... a HAPPY U.

TO CROSS OVER

I'm happy I have crossed,
The first turbulence in my life,
Holding onto a log of hope,
And my huge inner strength,
Praying every minute.
Alas, he has helped me wash ashore,
Across the vast ocean successfully.

I'm happy I have reached,
The very horizon of one endless dark tunnel,
Holding onto the light of hope,
And my huge inner strength.
Nevertheless, my prayers are answered,
For now all I see ahead,
Is a bloom of bright sunshine.

Thought the waters were rough
And the tunnel pitch dark,
They have taught me to live life.
My unconditional faith in GOD,
His messenger to me - HOPE,
And my strength - CONFIDENCE
Can make me overcome any barrier.

APART

R eyes may part,

R ways may part,

R visions may part,

R goals may part,

R togetherness may part,

R souls may part,

But all times apart,

I'll always have

R FRIENDSHIP at heart.

MY PLANTS

I hear the pitter-patter,
Beating against my plants.
The rain seems to pat them,
Pat its long lost friends.
Bringing joy to the on-lookers too.

It seems to lash softly for an hour,
Then its drained off its sources.
My plants now look lush green,
With tiny beady tear drops
On missing their wonderful friend.

"Worry not my little plants,
They'll be back in a day or so."
Then slowly the sun peeps,
Shyly from behind the clouds,
Spreading her warmth all around.

The tears  seem to sparkly on plants
And the cool breeze making them dance,
To shed the heaviness in their hearts,
Due to the lost friend.
Together they wipe the tears.

The tears are wiped and dried,
From the hearts of my plants,
As every true friend does
To bring back the joy and happiness
In my plants' brief sad times.

MY LOVE FOR HIM

My eyes seems to flutter
When I see U.

My heart seems to beat louder
When I sense U.

My tongue seems to be tied
When I hear U.

My presence seems to be lost to this world
When I dream U.

I seem to sense U a mile away,
By your ever radiant smile,
And by my love-stricken heart,

'Coz Cupid has aimed his arrow,
At me
And at U.
