Like a creature hibernating in its burrow
Waiting to come out with the first verdure of spring
The seed of a poem lay dormant in my heart
Through the long winter awaiting another spring
...
Thoughts explode in my brain
Like fireworks…..
How I want them to come out in words
And fall in line
...
ON WORDS
Words have a circuitous route
As foetus to the womb, they cling to the heart
...
Words of concern, genuine and apt,
Like rays from heaven, radiant and bright
Penetrate the gloom of many a heart
Help them brave the weary day
...
