Penned Thoughts

Poem 4

I was happy, green and shiny,

Slowly turning pale and yellow.

Now I know it is the time

Me, parting my fellow.

Having watched many of them falling,

I always worried,

What if instead of falling in the ground,

I will be carried?

Carried by the wind, carried to another world.

Travelling over the atmosphere, away from the human world.

But somewhere I always knew,

Either I will be burnt, buried or grinded.

Alas these feelings kept me moving

But as I fell, I flew, flew and flew.

Found myself flowing in a river.

Relaxed a bit,

Seeing the waterfall I shiver,

This is the end I thought,

Having closed my eyes I tried, I fought,

Tried to pull myself opposite the flow,

But when you resist you have a much bigger blow.

I too can't stand the force.

Keeping myself with the flow,

I decided to complete the course.

The course called life.

Until next time

Let us all keep rowing

With the life boat flowing,

Experiencing the joy of living,

And having the satisfaction on leaving.

Poem 5

My dearest brother

You are the lamp which itself shines and makes our life brighter.

Selfless love, care, concern is your trait,

But hiding all these is your state.

My kindest brother

I love you for who you are

I don't know about your feeling

But for me you are the biggest star

Capable of lighting others and glowing yourself as well.

You are that protective armour

That gets attacked and torn

But never gives a reason to mourn.

My cutest brother

Be the way you are

Near or far,

Wherever you are,

I'll always be your best yaar.
