A Storm of Words - Hello Poetry

Blue as the sky on a mid-winters day
Sharp as a knife that cuts through the haze
I seek a warm place in the arms of my love
I run after her as to catch a young dove
She catches the wind that blows from the sea
Now I'm growing old and she's growing free...

Wash away now these illusions of youth
Independent of madness, inconsistent with truth
So easy to remember yet harder to find
The ways of my youth when I was yet blind...

Traveler Tim

I wrote this in 1995 I think..

What Shall Be, Shall Be

Wayward curls shine in silver
New strands each day I see
Nothing will ever stop these waves
From greying furiously

Why then be lost in troubled thoughts
And hurry those tides of white
Breathe in and breathe out instead
Let little things delight

Sing of the joys of nascent spring
Dance to a happy summer song
Paint trees in burnished gold
Spin tales of leprechauns

Embrace brazen winds that breeze
The earth that holds well-walked feet
The canopy of light and dusky night
Where the sun and the moon come to meet

No tarot reading
No fortune teller
No crystal ball I see
Why riddle the eyes with endless thoughts....
What shall be, shall be

Written a gazillion days back

Unnecessary Anxieties

Fear not to embrace
all these losses,
the disconnection is but an illusion.
Love is the Highway we travel,
we all move on in the end.
Love is eternal my friends!!

Spring has come

I hear the sweet songs of the birds deep into my heart
The sweet fragrant smell of the rain rejuvenates my soul
The beautiful flowers blooming reawakens my mind
The warmth of the sun brings my body back to life
Spring has come oh so lovingly

CHEESE LINE

How can I be a fat hog
Whiles you suffer
I must insist
Let me make you supper
Pork and beans
By no means!!
Surf and turf
And perhaps some stew
A salad full of green leafy veggies
That should help get ya through

We’ll eat and drink
Burp and belch
Then will take a walk
For our health
I promise to share
‘Til my pantry’s runs bear
Or you eat me out
Of house and home
But at least
I’ll know
In the end
I didn’t eat alone
Suffering I won’t condone
.......

31st December 2020

I wish I could go back, just one more day,
To Dec 31st 2020, before you slipped away.
I wish I could hold you tight,
As on the next morning, you lost your light.

I wish I could hear your scold, one more day,
'Cause now our home's almost silent all day.
I know you are watching us from heaven,
Everyone forgot, but I still remember you 24/7.

I wish I could apologize for that fight,
Which you & I had for TV, that last night.
Now, I hold regret in every breath I take,
Wishing for one moment I can't remake.

This poem is for my grandma who is no more and I still regret that I fought with her when she wanted to watch her religious programme on her last night but I just refused to give her and told her she can watch it tomorrow on repeat telecast but there was no tomorrow for her🥺

The sad bloom

A flower,
Forced to be bloom.
It opens its petals too soon,
Everyone loved,satisfied,
But soon,
Left it alone in the gloom.

It's not about flowers 😔😔
