A Patch Poem by Samreena Lodhi

WHY IN MY LONELY DREAMS
THERE IS ALWAYS A PATCH GREEN
I CAN'T UNDERSTAND
AND STILL DON'T KNOW WHY?
MY MIND FEELS A PAIN IN MY HEART
MY HEART FEELS THE PAIN OF MY MIND
STILL THE WORRY
THAT CAN I SOAR HIGHER YO GAIN!
WHT BOTH WANTED TO GAIN
ALL DAY LONG I THINK AND THINK
NOTHING I FORGET
NEVER THE PATCH OF GREEN
AS IT IS THE PART OF MY LIFE
TO LEAP, TO FALL AND TO RISE AGAIN
BUT THAT PATCH SHOWED ME THE WAY
ALWAYS TO GAIN WHAT I NEVER UNDERSTAND
