In the backseat...

Time there will always be

We know... :)

But now? Maybe not...

And so I take
from this world..

a little leaf
a little feather
a few drops of ink
a few cosy thoughts
warm memories...

Into hibernation, in my soul...
As I rest, and delve
Into the sea of consciousness...

To find myself... :)

I relinquish the wheel, for now,
And replenish the heart

For that is what matters, isn't it?

Finally?

Impromptu, silly verse, just to say that I shall be going into hibernation for a while till time lends itself to me again, unconditionally :) If ever :)

Thank you for being here, and for having shared in sentiments and words here :) It has, and will always mean the world to me :) Thank you and God Bless!

Alert: Comments turned off :) Thank you in advance :)

In Reassurance....

In Reassurance..

And if you were
to let me loose...

Loosen the bonds
of love you
hold me within..

And if you were
to give me back
my space, my mind...

I wonder
Sadly, nervously...

I know you wonder too -

What if I asked?

What if you
couldn't deny me?

What if this
nightmare you
fear, turned real?

You wouldn't-
Rather, you couldn't-

I'm too precious,
a part of you
that rules the
rest of you!

Then how could
you-
Just let me free!

And how do I
reassure you
that's the way
I'll always be..

A part of you.

No matter-
even if you
let me be

Me!

Re-post, again :)

A Full Circle!

The first time we met,
Didn’t seem that way!

A lifetime before,
Surely…!
But how does
The time elapsed
seem so little?

How we seemed
to just pick up
from where we
left off-

When Fate perhaps
dealt a heavy hand-
That we found difficult
to play!

And so, the Carousel
stops here, this lifetime-
And we meet – again.

Funny, isn’t it?
How life always
comes round-
A full circle!

Sort of connected mildly to the earlier post :) Something that came as a sort of sequel, if you wish :)

The Carousel of Life

Hop on!

I'll take you

On a ride-

Gaily, you called out,

that fine summer day.

I shied away-

Rides were not my thing!

Not that carousel,

Of dancing horses,

Never still...

Dizzying moments-

Though excitement

and joyful cries rent the air!

Hop On!

You urged,

Reassurance warm;

flecked in your eyes!

What do I say now!

Hopping on that ride

With you-

Was the best thing

I've ever done!

No matter that the carousel

Whirled us round..

On a never ending

hurdy-gurdy of emotions!

For, as someone once said,

Love doesn't make the world go round;

Love is what makes the ride worthwhile!
