A doting mother waits
In expectation of a windfall!
She waits...
With a secret joy-
A quiet knowledge,
An earnest prayer
And
Absolute faith!
29 March, 2010 ...
Hey there :)
The tunnelled vision never
Expected such light.
I looked deep into
Your heart, not knowing...
I simply looked, for
I needed to.
On emotional crutches myself,
Laggardly, haphazardly
Perched on the edge of sanity
A hair's breadth away from oblivion
I would have given in.
Had I not looked for you.
Had I not met you.
Had I not found me, in you.
There, deep within, shone brilliantly
A mosaic of a million lifetimes
A thousand tendernesses
A bounty of breathlessness
An intrinsic pattern of many
Shards of me and you
Imprinted upon the soul, recalled instantly!
Disparate, separate, a moment,
Changing to visions of ephemeral entwining
Us.
And when the world turns upside down
And the combinations change
I for one, am glad that the
Kaleidoscope I found in you
Still stays the same...
Bits of me, lots of you...
And...Always Us.

On an offchance here, formed from a prompt from Soumya Sinha's poetry... reading from him and meeting a Kaleidoscope therein, triggered this one off! Thanks Soumya!
Rich harvests they say
Come from careful tending
Golden grain, smiling with promise
The fruit of sheer love. Mirrored across!
Careful tending, such as
Only you can do.
Together, concerned.
Loving, protective.
Watering with endless encouragement
Pruning, gently, when needed
Watching over with pride
Each stalk, each leaf, tenderly.
Stepping back, so that they could
Soak the sun, be part of it,
Stand upright, all on their own.
Their own. Yours. Ever. Always.
And steeped in a heavenly glow
As would a hallowed halo
Still there, bound in a
Circle of love, enveloped in golden sheen.
Dearest Mummy and Daddy
You're wished from our hearts
Filled with love, by your own.
Your very own. Us all!
Happy Golden Anniversary-
Dad and Mom

Remember, your family adores YOU!

(on a wave of sheer inspiration, in school :D!)
(For 7th December, celebrating our parents' fifty years of togetherness!)
Psst... if you came here first, perhaps you'd like to go across to "Overdrive", my other blog, where I have another one for them there, called "Golden Moments" :)
