A storm is brewing
the fierce wind is howling thunders are deafening the downpour, drenching. Tremors start to shake Disturbing the serene Crevices break, gaping muted sound, whimpering. Saturated; heaving intensifies Close to bursting, it’s heating up The only outlet begins to crack Bitter fluids slowly cascade.

We’ll fly above the sky
Soar beyond the eyes could see We’ll glide into the wind And drift amidst the clouds. We cut through the blinding light The searing heat, we’ve overcome The thunder, lightning, their worries gone We sail now, smoothly with lullaby We gain wisdom as we age...
We gain knowledge as we grow We gain vision as we learn We gain faith when in dearth. We soar when we dream We bend when jerked We squint when in brightness We groan when in pain. Smile, our disguise Sweetness, our release Calmness when in distress In solitude we redress. It drenches
refreshes it cleanses and quenches It drips and drops it flows and cascades Drizzle Rain Downpour Mist Whatever form Heavy or light It eases life A respite to a heavy heart. The long day was tiring
Emotionally draining Physically strained Mentally she’s ingrained. Curled in her bed Alone, she’s weeping Looking for comfort To nowhere it’s not present In silence she finds solace But its muted sound becomes intense Deafens her senses Stuns her nerves Drenched in tears In stillness she drowns The ascending silence To slumber she sends. You fill the void
You meet the needs The gap you bridge The depth you reach. The darkness you brighten The sullen you elate The yearning you douse The boredom you enthuse. The chain you have broken The wings you spread The hopes you let fly The dreams you let lose. Imagined or not For real or surreal Your presence makes difference My gratitude goes to YOU. Music heals, music soothes
the weary mind it clears of cobwebs and of tricks the tangles, it unweaves. Its sound penetrates our soul And in our heart lies its depth Comforting sound waves envelop us Rocks us to sleep, keep us at peace. Some music also blasts the mind Its hymn enthrals, makes us upbeat We stomp our feet, follow its beat And to its rhythm we jibe; gyrate. Most music makes us dreamy Drown ourselves to its harmony We hum along its melody Its message eases our misery. We double the time,
we double the efforts, we double the love, we double the care. At times we are worried but on our face is courage for we mothers are children’s; citadel of faith. Our touch is their healing Our kiss is their strength Our hug is their blanket With our nod they feel great. The selfless love we share And unfailing care we give Our unending affections Nurture, nourish their fate. Fellow moms let’s rejoice And take pride on the honor To be a mother is a privilege Not everyone can enjoy. Happy Mother’s Day! Images crowded my mind
of blank faces, void of names kept me awake, their presence linger Like ghosts, they haunted me. Were they my friends who thought of me? Or antagonists who betrayed me Or future amities who'll befriend me Or just blank faces, no soul, nobody Strange how their images keep coming back In the wee of night they drift unexpectedly, wish they can talk and tell me the meaning of their lucidity. We all have our shares of sacrifices
We all have our shares of happiness We all have our shares of loneliness We all have our shares of dumbness We look at the stars and get awe at their brightness We look at people and admire their successes We look at each other at blank faces we stare We look and see nothing, we sense no feeling We fly with our spirit and scale the sky Then dive in the seabed to unknown we landed Down on our knees we crawl in darkness Searching for beacon on the way to horizon. |
