Today I saw you there:
In my dream,
Near yet so far.
I waited and waited
For you to turn,
But you turned away.
The wait still continues,
With waking eyes.
Perhaps, patience pays…
They say!
I Dare Feel… So I Dare Write…
Today I saw you there:
In my dream,

I waited and waited
For you to turn,
But you turned away.
The wait still continues,
With waking eyes.

I got up this morning
to a very beautiful day;
shining with hope
through clouds of dismay.
I wondered what could be
the reason for the change.
Though it was soothing,
yet looked so strange!
I could not believe: was awake
or in some eternal dream;
Flowing from tomorrow
to today, like a cascading stream.
Rain, the previous night, has
washed away all dirt.
Wet drenched me but cleansed me too.
Nature’s silent but romantic flirt!
Oh! is this the glow of
a new born or am I reborn?
Now I know every time it rains,
removed are some skin torn.
Here I was crying childishly on
distress and agony, never existed.
Losing childlike wit, forgetting
how much I was trusted.
Someone has said long back,
we learn from our mistake.
Life is not about going back, rather
moving ahead with every retake!
Some random thoughts rhymed sometime in June, 2008.
A life yet to lead
A journey yet to start
A mouth yet to feed
A plan yet to chart
A compliment yet to receive
A glory yet to shine
A world yet to perceive
A dinner yet to dine
A charity yet to begin
A destination yet to reach
A song yet to sing
A gospel yet to preach
A dream yet to live
A conclusion yet to arrive
A gift yet to give
A sentiment yet to drive
A love yet to find
A priority yet to number
A business yet to mind
And
A walk yet to remember.
