A Slice of Life

This rainy  morning you gave me a feel of your flower
Thank you I want to give you a poem in return
Soaked in  pleasant smell of the showers
I like your eyes going through these words from green fern

Thank you I want to give you a poem in return
As you sing in the fifth avenue pavement
I like your eyes going through these words from green fern
As the passer-by drops a dollar swayed by the moment 

As you sing in the fifth avenue pavement
Raindrops dripping from your soft brown hair
As the passer-by drops a dollar swayed by the moment 
You smile and feel you can now pay for the Medicare

Raindrops dripping from your soft brown hair
Your old mom is in her sickbed at your home
You smile and feel you can now pay for the Medicare
I have mentioned her in a stanza of my poem

Your old mom is in her sickbed at your home
Look the sky is clearing up and the blue returns
I have mentioned her in a stanza of my poem
Let us pray she gets well and you are in my arms

Look the sky is clearing up and the blue returns
Soaked in pleasant smell of the showers
Let us pray she gets well and you are in my arms
This rainy morning you gave me a feel of your flower

This poem my friend, Probir, doesn't deserve only a slice of life but many large slices of it! Excellent Pantoum!
