Guess Who? ? Poem by Lakshmi Venkataraman

Guess Who? ?

Rating: 4.8


My eyes met his
Mine portrayed fear
While his were clear

I ran towards him
He took me by my hands
And lifted me above the sands

From there all I could see was his face
They were full of grace
I was captivated by him

Neither the midnight moon
Nor the sun at noon
Radiated this grace

My confounded mind rested at peace
My fears were at ease
He made me feel bliss
Well! I was all his

Years rolled by
I grew to be him
My talks, My thoughts;
Were similar to his
For he being my FATHER
Who else will resemble him but ME! !
