Second chance
Raindrops on the garden chair
Water dripping from my hair
Horses stood quietly in the rain
As they watched me dance again...
For months together I was alone
Sitting and sleeping like a stone
No friends came to wish me well
As I eagerly looked at the doorbell..
Maa dreaded the ill famed disease
As Paa took me to chemotherapies
I looked ghostly, bald and ugly
Sunken eyes stared back deadly....
I shunned all that was outside
The world was just my bedside
The books kept on the shelf,
Soft music to soothe myself..
But for sometime now
Feeling better somehow
Could walk to the window
And lo!! A beautiful rainbow...
My spirits soared high above
Is this really Heavenly love?
Giving me a ray of hope
Offering me a colourful rope??
Paa came home humming a tune
Said my ordeal would end soon
The doctor said I was cancer free
Maa came running to hug me...
I walked out as it started to rain
Found my strength all over again
As the horses watched me dance
I knew I had a second chance..
