I awakened from the bed suddenly,
It was a hot summer night, I was disturbed by kur, kur sounds highly, I tried to sleep again, right,
But I couldn't do it really,
And I searched the sound, where did it come from simply?, Atlast, a wall cock was found,
Which lived in a locked almirah, I kept a naphthalene ball in it, I never heard the sound again, harrah, And slept the night like a socklet.

It's time for me to make a change
My life I need to re-arrange
Before it spins into a wreck
Hopefully there's still a speck
Of glimmer and hope so I
Can muster up the strength and try
For finding another chance
As my life gets more enhanced
With good that I've never known
Only bad days have been shown
In my life---I can't remember
A happy time that has never
Turned into so wrong and bad
I wish I could finally have
A smile upon my face
And get out of the sad place
That has tortured me for years
I want to cry happy tears
As hours are getting brighter
And my heart is so much lighter
Filled with joy and happiness
That are plenty and endless
And I know it will soon start
As another lonely heart
Understands where I have been
Soon becoming best of friends
Helping one another through
With love that is always there

Beneath every roses,
I searched for your petal...
That last leaf is my respite,
You are a beauty in my heart...
The soil that shed my tears,
Created that lost rose...
That last leaf is my respite,
You are a beauty in my heart...
Beneath every hearts,
I searched for my soul...
A last respite in my heart.

I searched a rescues site
To adopt a pet for me
When I saw her face
That moment -I knew
My heart skipped a beat
I fell in love with a cat
Your coat colors of many
So beautiful to me
Your eyes a lovey green
They sparkled brightly
That is your name
Chosen just for you
I was told your story
When i came to see you
I told the lady"-She is mine"
On the way to your new home
I ma\de many promises to you
Which I kept for you
Welcome to your new home
A new life that is better
A home filled with love
When ready to the house
This is your new home
Filled with love for you
Sparkles is 9 years old and affectionate. The call came Feb. 9th. I brought her home Feb. 10th.

She searched and searched her whole life long
through many a summer, winter, fall and spring
but never did she find that person
who could make her lonely, quiet heart sing…
She began to think she may never find
the person she’d been dreaming of…
the one who made her heart sing
never find her one true love…
So she stopped looking
and then one day…
it happened purely by chance
she found the person who not only made her heart sing
but taught it how to dance.

Sometimes stories are to be looked for
The words are to be weaved in
Some emotions are to be beaded
Then some smile and tears along with fears
Like moon and stars are to be tucked in
Then you have a story turned into a good story.

I searched high for you,
I lost hope.
I buried my heart deep.

She once ran and ran swiftly;
Over the green wet meadows and
Down the shallow valley land
Crossed the narrow long bridge
To reach at the beautiful ridge
Where the sky kissed the earth lovingly.
Tired she sat down looking sadly,
She thought it was near somewhere
But couldn't find the lovely place nowhere
As a flower that was about to wither
As a sad heroine of some writer
She still looked at the sight longingly.
She was dark and lovely;
Like she reflected nature's raw beauty
Her tiny eyes shined brightly
Like it holds full of energy and life
Her hair was long and swayed like
It was dancing in the breeze lazily.
Her innocent lovely smile suddenly,
Spreading on her curious face
Seeing a small dove flying apace
Felt like she forgot about finding
The horizon that she found interesting
When her eyes saw the bird quickly.
Swaying hands while running quickly;
Little feet covering short distance
It felt like God has showed his brilliance
When he dolled up the angel like doll
I pray never the Lord let her fall
And always love and embrace her softly.
[Dedicated to my friend Shithy who was my inspiration to write this poem.]

I had and lost a love so sweet, so fair
It came about by chance so quick and rare
There was no time to think of wrong or right
Love came and stayed to help us through the night
We met and talked while time had stopped it seemed
As time stood still I found what I had dreamed
I asked her name, she laughed and said, "Be still.
If this should last beyond tonight, I will."
The night of love flew by on wings of fears
The thought to lose this love at light brought tears
But through it all the joy of hope pressed on -
The sun came up, a kiss and she was gone
I searched and watched to see her face again
But deep inside I knew I searched in vain
And now I'm old I lived as best one does
I sit and think and wonder who she was

A soul-searched stretch of despair
Emits from the pores of these tears…
Staring off in an emptiness I embrace
A place so stark of life
So lost…glad to be misunderstood
Yet frustrated by the lack of empathy
The lack of sense…
Words oozing in an unfeeling mess…
To exist… to merely exist
Does it not baffle you?
Does it even cross your mind…
That you…and your thoughts… are so
Incredibly alone...?
...
Or is this soul lost in sorrows…
Sorrows you can never dream to behold?

I searched
so hard,
trying to find
the me,
in myself
This is not Tanka it is Gogyohka, a fairly new form growing out of Tanka. I think I have the form correct, but i have not yet investigated the tone and
intricasies of the content. Keep watching for this as I think it will catch on quite quickly. The form is to take a poem about the length of a haiku and take out each mini phrase within the total phrase and arrange them in five lines. Joann Grisetti introduced it to me last week. It is kind of hard to determine if a one, two or three word group is a complete mini phrase.

I searched for the answers that never appeared
In the darkness of my soul I held all my fears
Feelings of rejected, unloved, unwanted
Followed me all my life and in everything I did
Trying to please everyone but never me
For in this dark place in my soul I felt it was how it was to be
Trying to save the world and loosing me
I now see that was not the plan set for me
In the darkness a flicker of light appeared
It nestled in my spirit and soon darkness disappeared
I found a path that day
I held out my hand and He showed me the way
No longer do I feel unwanted or unloved
I walk in His light and His love

I have searched my entire life
For a man as good as you are to me
I have longed since childhood
For someone to believe in me
I have walked a thousand miles
For a love I didn't find until now
I have spent all my life
I have spent all my time
Crying until now
I once dreamed of a love so true
I pondered on thoughts of passion
I wondered if I would ever feel it
And now I have this devotion
Searching myself I wonder
How long can true love last
When it is tortured so
Will it be rescued at last
Can distance and time make us strong
Or will it tear us apart
The thought of losing you makes em weak
Knowing there would be distance to start
I don't know how much more
That my heart can take
I've been packing my heart with ice
And putting everything I have at stake
Yet is love enough to carry
All this weight and sorrow I feel
This horrid abandonment that consumes me ?

I know, it isn’t so easy,
To pursue a child for forgiveness,
I know, it is easy to say,
A lesson of patience is too hard.
Believe me or n’t,
It is best way of living,
You can stop innocent shying,
Or can save your innocent tears.
You were always heavy on me,
When my women were pregnant,
You always cried for revenge,
When my children were grown up.
Time to time, day to day
You searched me and I searched you,
But never learnt a lesson,
No mistake has delivered a lesson.
