Missing Rain

Day 41

If I had to get attached and feel sad,

I would cry thinking of the rains..

that drizzled so lightly on muddy terrains.

Rain that touched the leaves ever so softly,

& fell off the branches onto the grass below.

I would miss the sound that accompanied me during quiet lonely days.

Rain that cleared the dark skies and brought some light into my gloomy days.

Touching fingers and kissing cheeks in surprise

Oh, sweet loving rain!

The Unrequited Love Poem

Day 40

I love him dearly.

In the depths of his eyes,

A sea of knowledge and an emotion of kindness.

His praises for Chardonnay spilled with delight.

History, books and literature were all he desired.

I looked at him longingly and gave him all my attention.

Not once did I miss his classes of European Literature.

He always smiled at me and my heart fluttered with joy.

But he looked at me like he looked at everyone else.

Soon days of college came to an end.

And never did I see him again.

Hello Rain

Day 34

Here you come again.

Hanging out on my window pane.

You give me chills when I step out in the open air.

You cause commotion on the lanes,

With puddles of muddy water here and there.

Yet, every time I see you,

I fall in love a little more with you again.

Day 24

Like drops of dew on a leaf.

And a soft breeze on the cheek.

You, with a smile of an angel.

Spread your wings of love.

– While here,

I carry a longing with a strong urge.

To intrude into the depths of your peaceful mind

and beautiful soul.

Love thy Self

Day 14

What are you searching for?

Friends? Some company?

Why?

There is no need to feel bitter,

Lonely or sad.

Don’t you like your company the best?

If not, then spend time..

Discovering yourself.

It really helps!

When Friends Talk

Day 5

When friends talk

You know it will take a while to stop.

It can go on for hours

When they reminisce the memories of their past.

When friends talk

The many emotions on their faces

Look like a movie.

Excitedly with light in their eyes

They open up and share their lives.

When friends talk

They disagree, get angry and fight.

But when they come back and smile

You can’t help but hug them tight.

Friends make life easier

They comfort and assure you

When they put their arm around you.

You know they will always be around you.

World Hunger Day

Silver foils, empty plates

Hungry kids stop and stare.

Dried lips, messy hair

Are you here to beg?

But why..you should be out there to play

Or is this your new game?

We throw away and waste.

Children out there are waiting to be fed.

A little more care, a little less greed

Can maybe feed the ones in need.

Protect and educate

Love and care

Let’s improve what we can today

Be humble and nice to everyone you meet.
