Bring joy your way

In the year that follows after!

Rain

Staring out my window
Raindrops trickling
Clouds overhead
Water sprinkling
Dew on the grass
Dew on the leaves
Moist everywhere, all over trees
Birds singing
Storm is over
My spirits no longer lower

Heart

honey dew drops on a leaf
all dust thrown out in a sweep!
lovely birds singing together
a reunion, a union, forever
forgiveness and togetherness
friends always
stand firm beside each other like rocks
stand together as one
never apart
two parts
of the same heart

This poem is dedicated to my best friend, Kanmani. :) <3

Leaf

a leaf silently falls to the ground
it slowly drifts in a tunnel of time
swerving between the wind and trees
lest it not get tangled in its woes
bright with caramel kisses and golden raindrops
falling slowly
kissing the whispering ground softly
reaching its place
it flew from its sky
it learned to fly

Spring scene

opening
in bloom
sun turns away
all gloom
grass spring freshly, all green
it is such a beautiful spring scene
pink beauties burst in full bloom
shine so bright, take up all the room
the fruits ripen and are sweet
many berries to eat
picnics and time to walk
playing and time to talk
birds and the blue sky, nothing go unseen
it is such a beautiful spring scene
gardens grow, flourish and fluctuate
everything is in full color at this state
growing at a fast rate
the stars twinkle their eyes
the smiles come down from the skies
the sun, a gem, a jewel, a star
light, pools and fun, not too far
all the plants grow lean
it is such a beautiful spring scene

Wind

the wind gusts
and blows
it's heavy sighs
and moans
the laughs
the cries
the wind
is not shy
blows the leaves
swirls them around
flicks the water
and loose grass found
the wind talks
and speaks
and whispers
and sounds creaks
it dances
and sings
to all living things

Perfect

sweet mildew
honey dew
trickles of dew
on the silent leaf
sun shining and glimmering on the rugged sea rocks
everything is perfect
the way it should be
cool gushes of wind
sent the angels
of heaven....
Cool breeze
through the trees
they jiggle
and fly in harmony
everything is perfect
the way it should be......
meadows of colorful flowers
roses
daisies
tulips
pansies
petals protecting like a hood
protecting the center
the forests are calling
filled with new beginnings
a place to be
for you and me
when in trouble
or need a place to be alone
in calmness
it will guide you
protect you
nourish you with adventure
it will bring you up
with a teacher's love
and everything is perfect
the way it should be!
