Malabika Ray Choudhury Poet Lyric

Gifts

my gifts are those unhindered birds 
                        spreading wings in the tangerine sky, 
                        my gifts are those ruby-red roses 
                        spreading hues touching saddened hearts. 
                        my gifts are crimson dawn, amber clouds, 
                        floating sailboats in ocean's blue bosom, 
                        whispering raindrops, blossoming buds,.
                        swaying leaves and mauve twilight.
                        my gifts are those pure, unblemished 
                        smiles of children ~ innocent eyes lighten up. 

                        with all these divine gifts in my world, 
                        I have more than enough to be
                        sailing through life!
