Savage Life

they met, they loved

they parted, they cried

they met again, they smiled,

they were one, a whole again…

~*~

there was magic in the air,

the tender hand on her hair….

time went by,

life was a blur

of hugs and promises

smiles and stolen kisses….

~*~

yet there came a day

when he did pull away!

savage his words

I no longer feel love

savage his action

of final retraction

savage his love

forgetting his vow

savage his heart

tears hers apart

Savage is love,

Savage is life !

Helping Hand

Daily Prompt : Help

Helping someone always makes me happy,

Be it a parent, a sibling or even my puppy

My patient, my friend, my child or my hubby…

The radiant smile, that look divine

Ups the brightness of the one on mine..

Many a sleepless night suited me fine…

Grateful I am to be made an instrument

Happy to help, happy to have meant

that lil extra in that little moment….!

May I always have that opportunity

To be of help, in any place, any eventuality!

Destiny, where did you get The Nerve

To make her life, on curves, go sverve?

Why did you make her fall in love

If he was so many a notch above?

Why oh why did you have the nerve

To make her just stand and serve?

How can you have the nerve, dear fickle Fate,

To show her heaven and then as quickly, abate!

Today’s WP Daily Prompt : Fleeting

From crib to grave

From knight to knave

From rags to riches

From riches to rags

From classrooms to boardrooms

From breeches to bridegrooms

From taught to teaching

From reading to writing

From still to beating

From bye to greeting

From loving to fighting

From living to dying

From nothing to everything

From everything to nothing

From beaten to beating

From loving to hating

From craving to waiting

Time is fleeting

Time is fleeting….

So friends…..

Was there an unknown empty space inside me

Was I Incomplete before you and me became “We”?

Are you the long lost other half of a whole

Was I Incomplete before my heart, you stole

DAFFODILS

By William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, but they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not be but gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed – and gazed – but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
