Richa Tiwari Joshi Poems

Life is a blessing and I realize it every day…
I realize it every day, when relish a good meal...
I realize it every night, when I enjoy a cozy bed...
An early cold winter morning, gives me the message that life is truly a blessing...
...

The sun will shine everyday to keep me warm
The moon will be full and bright to keep company with twinkling stars.
The birds will sing and the flowers will smile…
Every moment, nature will sprinkle some more beauty to this world from its magical womb and in midst of everything life will go on….
...

The sleepless night of yesterday was so full of you…..
It felt so right to touch your hand once more in that dim corner of mind
Nights spent staring at the full moon by the side of that corner window flashed back and your face danced on the heartbeat till the eyelids dropped to sleep.
I wonder how life would have been, if only you could listen to the words unsaid
...

All dreams were like floating thoughts here and there in the endless sky of life
We met them all now and then in the journey called life
The spark of first love and death of love in the bondage of relationships
The mourning of lover and sprouting of a new bud in shape of a new love
...

When the reason of being together is lost, then it is time to move on
Do not feel guilty my friend, it is an indication to look beyond
Look beyond these bleeding wounds and see that new path
This path shall lead you to self
...

It is again one of the days, when the soul is restless and the rhythm is uneasy
The pattern of thoughts pile one upon another and the mind relives the dream of last night
I waited for long at the gate of that last train and then touched you for one last time
You did not stop me when I tried to move on,
...

Whispers of your promise dangled around for long, as the world of dream vanished from the core of eyes, dropp by drop.
The lines of your face slipped through the tip of hands, day by day.

A World was woven around you, where hope shined between the green leaves and love danced on every tune,
...

I saw you mom hiding under the bed so that father can't beat you up,
I saw you crying silently so that he shouldn't wake up and start the fight again,
I was too small to stop him, my fists too weak to punch him,
so, when he threw you out in dark, I cried softly and pretended to sleep until dawn,
...

I have got bruises all over
I’ve felt this pain for so long that sometimes it does not hurt anymore
I longed for things which now do not matter
I cried for broken dreams which were easily replaceable
...

You were a little girl playing in my garden swinging high
you dreamt and believed in what you saw
you talked to fairies and had faith in Santa Claus
your laughter filled my house and your presence blessed the world like fragrance of the flowers
...
