Ode to the loving memory of Akhtar Aunty, you were no less then a mother. May you forever rest in peace.
You've moved on? Cheated by time Betrayed by fate Its hurts so so so bad For I just believe you're there But I know you're not I don't know what to do Dare I hate God?
But you are I hear your sweet voice I see your gentle smile I know happy tears Clinging from the corner of your eyes You have to be there You can't just be gone Please not just like that
I remember a tight hug I remember a fond chuckle I remember words That will always get me by I see the beauty in life You taught me how to try And I remember a love Brighter then life
I see you there Each time I close my eyes I see a fresh star shining bright A silent lake weeping below The wind carry's whispers So loved and familiar, I hold orchids in my hand The ache is so hard to bear
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
It is a very nice poem indeed.
Greetings and blessings from Atlanta.
