I Dive Deep, into the Sea of Emotions...



I Dive Deep
into the Dark Sea of Emotions...

To Bring forth
the Pearls of Life
lying scattered everywhere!
To Travel along
the Islands of Joy
Spreading Smiles in Spares!

So that I could
Pour My Love
in the Glass of The Universe
until it Fills and Spills
and Falls back onto Me!

I Dive Deep
into the Sea of Emotions...
not because I'm Weak
but because I LIVE!

Little Girl

 
A Little Girl I know
Naive, just four
Her Innocence’s ever charming
Her Sweetness names her a darling.
She has a crystal clear soul
O! She’s purer than the pure!

She dances out in the rain
Her tiny feet twirl and part
She sings aloud in her garden
To the tunes of her heart
Without much ado
To the eyes discerning her.

Life is fair to her
As are grandma’s fairy tales
The world is good at large
As her doll house entails.
She’s papa’s boy
She’s mama’s girl
Her aura brimming with love
Unaware of the tide, yet to unfurl.

For she couldn’t fathom
The endless worries
her mother’s eyes emanate
Neither the protective ways
her father resonates
All she wants is
To grow up, to grow big, very big
Like her Mama
So that she could fit in
In her high heeled shoes
(very pretty they are, to her).

Innocence is so much vulnerable,no?

      To Sparrow, with Love
















      I remember the times O Sparrow
      When I was young and you were little
      Days began with your rhythmic chirrups
      And evenings spoke of my innocent twiddles.

      Your nest was an oft visited place
      During playtime in sunny weather
      I was amazed at the way you sewed it all
      Twigs and yarns and feathers.

      My garden was more beckoning
      When you sang there with your troop
      Daffodils and Butterflies danced
      And I fostered you with drupes.

      I daily gazed at the eternal sky
      And watched you fly high ,in blue extremes
      Your vigor,your freedom and your abiding bustle
      Intrigued me to live my Dreams.

      I remember the times O Sparrow
      When a storm struck us both
      You coped up the next day ,I heard your song
      It rejuvenated, my heart and hope.

      You often came and sat by my verandah
      And were ne’er afraid of me
      You made my ambience cheerful
      And I just loved your very being!

      Ah! But O little birdie, where have you
      disappeared now?Long time,no see!
      I just miss your soulful songs
      and I JUST MISS THEE!
       
      PS: The House Sparrow is now a disappearing species.To raise an awareness among people,World Sparrow Day is observed every year on March 20th(It started in 2010only).The theme for this year is :"Chirp for the Sparrow,tweet for the Sparrow".
