Thriveni C Mysore Poem
"Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad." — Quote by Anne Geddes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I liked to wear new clothes
as a kid I liked things many more
crayons, paper, a doll, a chocolate, pink shoes, ribbons, bangles
I knew not: they were to be bought by money
that money was to be earned,
that my father was poor, that he skipped meals often.
As a kid I just thought my dad was cruel
cruel, as he did not get me things I pointed
He would turn my gaze to something else
distract me with jokes and tales
His roaring laughter drowned my likes and my childish cries
But I never saw his aching heart and unshed tears
I was ten when he died
Forgive me dad, I was a foolish child.

Even sweetest freshwater river
seeks refuge in salts of vast ocean

Thriveni C Mysore Poem
Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens.” NKJV Genesis 1:20
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Birds flew east
Birds flew west
Birds flew south
Birds flew north
Singing to St Francis, singing in Praise of Lord
Flying with zest, singing in love at dawn, at dusk
Cheerful in song, cheerful in all praise of Savior
Birds fly again
Fly east, fly west
Fly north, fly south
Birds do fly again now
Again, do again, it is time
For you to preach praise
To sing in Lord’s name
Teach all to spell Peace
“He didn’t suffer in vain”
Let the world know this
The truth very precious
"Peace! Be still!"Jesus said
To calm the wind and sea
Let miracle happen again
Let there be calm hearts
Let there be peace again
In hearts of young and old
In every home around world
I believe in His miracles, I do
I believe He brings Peace, I do
Let birds that breathe and sing
Fly below heavens, rejoice in peace

Thriveni C Mysore Poem
Packed with starch, protein
Provided for many
People called 'earth apple'
Placed at gold value once
Potassium rich veg
Peruvian produce
Peel, slice, fry and enjoy

Quote: I know there is a place for me in this world, as I am needed. – Speaks Volumes (Wendy Horder)
-------
She is lover of family, sharp in thinking new
Perhaps a bit sharp in words, unmerciful too
Even before you think that you do know her well
All about your heart is calculated by her still
Knowing world better, her fact-finder job was swell
She is spirited, pious, lively & rhymes well
Vigor, value, family & friends she admires
Oblivious to concerns of health, she inspires
Little does she fear, stubborn doter, dog lover
Ultimate love is her quality gem, artless dear
More than anything else she adores poetry
Engrosses in shape-poetry & mystery
She loves humor, wit, wisdom, above all her country.

G Forms - Grook Poetry Contest - Constance La France, Theme 1. Death
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"All our affections are at the mercy of death, which may strike down those whom we love at any moment." Quote by _ Bertrand Russell
sitting with tears
watching a foolishly blurred vase
doodling flowers, a sun, a river, a hut,
a range of hills, hills, hills,
I fill the voids in my tender heart
created by my
kith and kin washed away
without a trace to the sea
when massive hill fell
on a sleeping village.

Thriveni C Mysore Poem
scrupulous maid
content, playful face
balanced poverty
ultramarine touch
bread baked right
blushing thoughts
rolled up sleeves
neglected arms
damped window
agreeable fate

Thriveni C Mysore Poem
I am
universe
I am
object of love, trust, faith
I am
absolute
so I feel
as I walk into
sparkling eyes of
my loving pet
