An Ode To My Mother

An Ode To My Mother

ย  ย  ย AN ODE TO MY MOTHER

Mother! mother! O my dearest mother!
Working all day long, take a little rest rather.
Listen to you as I listen to you,
There are so many things to say that has remained due.
Always smiling, hiding your sorrow;
Tell me where do your patience you borrow.
Facing the hurdles all on your own,

Struggle and suffer but never groan.

Stand like a tree, fresh and alive;

Bear the scorching heat and spread a good vibe.

Look at your face so calm and fair,

O such a gentle touch I can get nowhere.

Thank you for bringing me on this earth,

Thank you for filling my life with mirth.

I’m your world, you’re mine,

I wish you to be happy, I wish you to shine.

Mother! I’ve heard some strange things,

They said, o mother, you were born with wings.

You were full of life and you made a dive,

Into the world of your dreams where sparkles the sunbeams;

So much of praise how you embrace,

You were born to rule but remained a mule.

You were full of life but they were carrying a knife;

They cut your wings, tied you with a ring.

The ring was too heavy, you knew what it would levy.

You were born to shine, they said you would be fine.

Then jerk and pull, you gave but your full;

You were born to shine but you said you were fine.

Then came we, like two buds in your twig,

You strive, you stride to take us on a ride,

A ride full of dreams where sparkles the sunbeams.

You gave us wings that once you had that once got ruined,

You gave them colour, you fill them with valour.

Now we’d never have to fit into the man-made mould,

For you’ve taught us to be kind, have taught us to be bold.

I’m your world and you’re mine,

In you, o mother, I see the divine.

I’d hold your banner in the same manner,

Making dings would flutter my wings.

Full of spry would soar high in the sky;ย 

The world would praise how I’d embrace.

Then take me in your arms, kiss my forehead;

Let’s dive together like that of the mermaid.

No harm can cause you, no danger can befall you;

For I’d stand as firm as a rock,

The path to sorrow would surely block.

All your sorrow would I bury,

With incandescent love would heal your injury.

I’m your world and you’re mine,

you’re with me, I shall always be fine.

My Rendezvous With Life

My Rendezvous With Life

The treacherous waters of existence hail in their stride,As the beauty of sailing against the winds uproars in its ride.Benevolence in its yonder stirs the mirth of the true,Navigating the turbulent waves, death and I had a rendezvous.

I sought the beauty of the light that was unseen,In the depths of my muse, I found my world within.Life in its flair, trudged me into the emblems of the dark,The dreams that perspired in the seed embraced their death,As it was time for a new quest to embark.

Quaint whispers that echoed in their gallant stance,The jeers that surmounted the uncertainty galloped in their dance.Silencing the wind, bestriding the fall,I plunged into the entirety of my endeavours that call

For I chose to befriend the walk that marked the

The Power of Understanding Your Love Language

Love is the purest emotion one feels towards themselves and another individual. While the expression of love can vary in its entirety from one person to another, the care we hold for the ones we love shares an undeniable impact on how we forge our perceptions of interpersonal relationships. The way we communicate our feelings to someone also says a lot about how we are wired, the method of conveying our affection to our beloved ones is called a love language. You may express affection to the one you love regularly, but do you take the time to ensure that you are communicating it in the way that the other person prefers? Even love can become lost in translation when two individuals speak different love languages.

The Beauty Of Gratitude In A World Full Of Cynicism

Ever acquainted with the phrase that the world that you exist in, the life that you embody dwells in the perception of the stance you hold for yourself. The beauty and the tragedy of life is that it is as beautiful as the optimistic lens of perception and as ugly as the pessimistic view of your being.

The strive of our endeavours and the constant effort to achieve the next massive milestone often drive us to the edges of insanity, to be in the consistent light of greatness we lose sight of the great strings of joy that bind our existence together. To be the best we have ever been we must be mindful of the best we are. Coinciding in the traps of negativity and yet claiming to be the best version of yourself is a blinding truth that lies to only

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I breathe in the sauntering air that collapses my being,I breathe through the crevices of my existence unseen.Uncertainty in its yonder strikes in bolt on the scars that nobody sees,Redemption that loves, redemption that is free, find me in the depths of my poetry.

Tales of lust ridden in smeared touches that belie,Entreated with envy, the visions of victory lie.To be or not to be in a question that yet lies,For I yearn for a world where fond passion never dies.

Enclasped in the cage of the deemed duty,Bounded in her vows, she forgot she was a thing of beauty.In a realm we live, where amour in its truth fails to stand tall,She, tired of her existence, submerges herself into the beauty that her dreams enthrall.

Chaos in its uproar hails in its darkness
