Of Moods And Hopes Poem by Narayanan Ramakrishnan

Of Moods And Hopes



Was it a sunny day,
Was it a rainy day,
Was it a sultry night,
Or was it a rainy night;
Oh, rememeber, I can't, for we indulged
When mood enveloped and need engulfed us.

Now stands confirmed of your imminent arrival;
Await you, in all our eagerness, too, all kith and kin
Son or daughter of which we aren't curious;
Our anxiety is more in your perfection, mind and body.

In some months time, you will be in this world;
All await eagerly for that red letter day of
A bright summer morning with cool winds;
Chirping, screatching and cawing birds,
All in gay and all in plenty.

You will grow with us and learn to crawl, sit and stand,
Walk and run and slowly babble a lot, keep us amused;
We will see hope in you an the whole world in you,
Enrich you with love, pamper with gifts and colorful dresses,
And snap you in all modes and still your days.

You will make friends and move up in life
You too will quarrel and may not relish all and sundry
But remain rooted in your convictions strong;
But, we hope, ardent, you have no killer in waiting
Or none tobe and taking shape in some corner, here or abroad.

Love to be with sentiments You will grow with us and learn to crawl, sit and stand, Walk and run and slowly babble a lot, keep us amused; We will see hope in you an the whole world in you, Enrich you with love, pamper with gifts and colorful dresses, And snap you in all modes and still your days.
