When I Wake Up In The Morn.............. Poem by lalitha iyer

When I Wake Up In The Morn..............

Rating: 5.0


When I woke up
my heart sighed
yet another dawn
some vessels to wash
clothes to Iron
food to cook
and floors to sweep
everyday when I get up
same thoughts loot the dawn
I wake up wondering
if I could sleep a little more
and why the world of sleeps was secure more......

Today,
as I ended up the night
with the alarm of my cell
I sprang up
like a rubber ball
though my aches
snowballed halting me fast
ache or no ache
I danced to Kitchen
ideas of breakfast
bulbed in many colours
I was singing into washing vessels
I was humming when I Ironed the clothes
there was some secret
somebody said some magic words
as if they have changed my world

Yes, yester day I met a man
after ages I met him again
he was there when I was a girl
now, ages since I met him again
he just smiled at me
and shaked my heart
just shaked my heart
and tumbled down the cascades of thoughts
of love and emotions of the past
oh sweetly did I came to life
suddenly I started feeling I am living
in my Zeroed life
somebody sprouted A Meaning
and I wanted to shout aloud
to the bloody empty heads around
that I have somebody now
to love, to cherish and to share
my feelings about life and living beings...........

This is another lovely creation Lalitha...it is indeed true even the most ordinary mundane tasks/ chores take on a whole new meaning when someone gives us a reason to be happy to have a song on our lips and in our hearts too...10++++
