LET ME LOSE THIS TIME

I still remember it like yesterday
And I still savor it everyday
The naive child jumping about
Happy about the triumph she got

I could never have told the difference
Genuine victory from the fake one
The little girl could never play cards
But you lost the everytime for my fun

How will I face any problems?
If you solve them all for me?
How will I ever lean to play cards?
If you continue losing for me?

I'm grateful to you for all you gave
The fake winnings were also fine
But the little girl has now grown up
So, please, let ME lose this time

Sunshine

Looking at waters still as land
The flavour of greenery very bland
The slow moan of animals nearby
Newly hatched birds waiting to fly

Towards the calm lake a tree bends
To the scorches of travelers it tends
Small reptiles scurrying around
As their territories they haunt

The sun begins to smile warmly at them
For whom they've waited for so long
The beautiful birds wake from their sleep
And the moan is converted into a song

Now a rainbow paints the sky
Just as the clouds began to cry
A flower blossoms with delight
Determined to reach endless height

And now the land is green again
Chasing away all of the pain
A nightingale skipping around
Fills the air with melodious sound

The Photograph

Twirling a strand of curly blond hair
Breathing in the cool fresh air
Those eyes light up in such a way
That wild horses couldn't drag me away

The bright green eyes that stare at me
With such a great wild fantasy
Making my knees go wobbly and weak
Leaving me alone and lonely to freak

I have been looking too long
And I can't seem to look away
Your eyes give a view of beyond
Now my mind seems to sway

The lovely lips curling into a smile
Too innocent and beautiful to be true
I forget the whole world for awhile
To look at the sky suddenly so blue

I look at the girl looking back at me
And I wonder if it really was me
The photograph had come alive-
The stranger child that has once been me

FOREVER

My heart was throbbing wildly
As you held me so close to you
This is where ‘I’ became ‘we’
We seem to be like paper and glue

Our meeting was a work of fate
And you became my destiny
There’s not a thing left to hate
The world has become bliss for me

Your smile is enough to make my day
Your one hug makes the pain go away
One look in your eyes and I forget my name
With you in it life becomes a fun game

I can feel the sand tickling my feet
The sea breeze ruffling my hair
A slow walk with you, holding hands
And my heart has a sudden flare

Flowers have never been so fresh
The sky has never been so blue
What is this feeling called??
Give me a hint, any small clue

It is friendship, or is it love?
Sweet as sugar, pure as a dove
I don’t care as long as this goes on
‘coz I want it to last forever and ever…..

A WOMAN

When stories of ghosts made me shudder

The comforting lap i still remember

Relaxing me for ever and ever

The warm and friendly lap of a mother

The loving arms that held me close

Their one touch made me twitter

The unconditional love never let me lose

The loving and caring hug of a sister

The innocence of the young eyes

And that carefree laughter

The divine energy that never dies

The liveliness of a loving daughter

The warm and friendly lap of a mother

The loving and caring hug of a sister

The liveliness of a loving daughter

So clear the heart of a woman
