Thank You.. Poem by kunjubi varghese

A big thank you, for

Whatever you have given me…..


The broken piece of pottery you have very

Graciously presented me,

From your unbreakable, sturdy mind,

You keep unblemished.

A tiny fragment of a peacock’s feather, you gave,

Preserved all the while, in your arithmetic book;

For having showed me, a blind alley with crooked

Bends, from the manifold paths of your emotions;

For a prickle, you severed from among the midst

Of lush foliage, flowers and ripened fruits;

Of your thoughts, and handed over to me...


And for a shard of black cloud from

The dreams, blossomed by rainbows,

In your implacable heart….


I am thankful and my mind,

Overwhelms with gratitude.
