You Ask Me How…? ? Poem by Abhijit Surve

You ask me why? do I care for you,
I always manage to have something new..
That brings up a smile on your face,
From where do I gather? these different ways..

You ask me why? am I always there,
The reason I show so much care..
That soothes and relieves all your pain,
How do I do it? you want me to explain..

You ask me why? do I don't let you down,
Bring you joy when you feel frown..
That helps you get back all that you lost,
You want to know this comes at what cost..

You ask me how? do I understand your needs,
Right from your eyes is where my heart reads..
Those thoughts that you nurture of every kind,
You want to know how do I read your mind..

You ask me why? am I pampering you a lot,
Never leave you alone, stick to you like a knot..
That pulls you out of problems with all its might,
How do I succeed? in holding you so tight..

You ask me how? do I stand so strong,
Lifting your spirits high, all day long..
So when you fall asleep you'll be more content,
You wonder from where? do I get my strength..

So if your heart has raised a question to you,
How does someone, somewhere thinks something so true..
Then just close your eyes and ask a question above,
He'll soon answer dear, 'This is something called LOVE'....
