...kites, roses and apple pie (A repost from 2014...edited) In life, in deeds, You have been, still are, courageous In your words, in your creeds, I say you are all so sweet, Infectious, You all are contagious! Just a single line of your words Would surely, quickly be re-quoted. You are exemplary in Whatever you say or do... Enlightened are those with furrowed brows Upon reading your works, Commendations, And acclamations Bothered by ideas and words So foreign and difficult... Clarifications, simple explanations Readily are provided... One need not ask... Like well respected, learned leaders, Actions, words are emulated. You are sweet... You are infectious... You are contagious! If you were colorful kites, Soaring up the blue skies You would have so many tails Hanging, trailing behind you... Here in our world Your followers are like ants Trailing your footsteps... Never straying, not at all waning, But multiplying..... In a bed of roses, Bees, birds and butterflies Would never stop fussing Endlessly buzzing From up above, and all around you... Taking all their needs, Not forgetting themselves to feed, To recreate, from your seeds these, they are bound to heed... Now, If you were a plate of fresh, Yummy and crusty apple pie, With a scoop of ice cream on top.. Oh me, oh, my.... I may not forget these three men, But....I am bound to starve... Pardon me, but... Surely, I would be oblivious The first one to be ravenous To the point of being outrageous Can't stop...can't wait... This is my moment: As long as I have a mug of hot brewed coffee I shall take my time... I won't feel choked, Won't even be thirsty... Voraciously, I would finish the whole plate off... Til crust and crumbs fill me with too much stuff... :::::::::::: For the Triumvirate of Bala, Nat and Pradip... in alphabetical order, no one comes first or last... for these three are all soaring high in their respective styles of poetry... there are many others worth mentioning, a plethora of names and styles, in fact...

i think i strayed from my main topic....though the mere mention of apple pie takes me away...yet...I am not bound to forget good, good friends, like the triumvirate above...
