Writing Unwraps My

Soul

Poetry is my soul, Poetry is my life! Writing is...

what keeps me alive! An aquamarine waterfall of

feelings descend from the innermost corner of my

heart… unfolding the deepest thoughts, the loving

thoughts, the glorious thoughts, the gloomiest

thoughts… childhood memories float in tiny rainbow

paper boats, dance on the softest petals of petite

flowers emanating perfumes of arabia, serenade

me away to the forest of dreams in a playful swing

of my coral passions, weaving the tapestry of

mysterious stories depicting eternal melody of love

and loss. I am a Nightingale… singing a song of

lavender dreams and hopes, under an ultramarine

canvas blending turquoise sky and sapphire ocean,

twilight moon flickering ribbons of love, my

audience - the pearlescent clouds, gleaming stars,

souls with a poetic heart! I write for myself, I write

for you, I write for the future generations to come.

My story is their story, my life is their life… The

vermilion sky at dawn kindle an inspiration in me,

So do the gossamer rays of crimson twilight.

humming river, cadence of ocean-waves, snowcapped

mountain-peaks. Twittering birds, twinkling 

stars … History of human race …struggles and 

victories… Writing unwraps layers of my soul

 

The Happy Snowman

 

There once was a very happy snowman

who was loved by all the boys and girls.

He would watch them run and play

with each passing day.

 

One day the sun was so bright
the snowman knew it wasn’t quite right.

He hoped with each day
that he would not melt away
if only he could make it until night.

 

As the days became warmer and warmer
the snowman knew he was in danger.

He said his good-byes
and looked in their eyes
and said, “I promise I’ll see you again.”

 

The next snowy day
the children all came out to play
They worked for hours together
to bring their friend back to them.

 

Before the days end
they all had their friend.

The happy snowman joined them
once again.
