Ode To A Soul Sister

Bundle of exuberance, oodles of energy
She never exhibits a bit of lethargy
Genuine, affectionate, with talents so rare
She is a magician, selfless extraordinaire

A soul sister whom I acquainted late
Will miss her terribly when I leave the state!

Lyrics Of My Life

"Teachers leave the kids alone!"
My mind mumbled when entering the class
"I want to break free" was the chant
All through my growing up years
With a twinkle in his eyes, he whispered
"Everything I do, I do it for you"
Only to be beleaguered by my question
"Have you really ever loved a woman?"
While choosing to remain a "Bachelor Boy"
"Sometimes I feel like my only friend is the city I live in"
Death being just "Two steps behind"
I live my life with "I don't want to miss a thing" zest


PS: Challenge was to write a poem about your life taking lines from your favorite music album/artist

Clear Night

Defeaning silence caught her ears
As she took over the duty
As birds happily called it a day
She wondered "How are they under sunray?"

Her companions had given it a miss
For she shared sparkling banters with them
Clouds, that always shrouded her light
Didn't turn up for the night!

"I feel so lonely out here!" she lamented
Shredding few drops of tears, at a farther distance, she saw
As an inmate was capturing her beauty, she blushed like a bride
"Thank God! It's a clear night!!" she said with a sense of pride
