My Anchor Poem by Shilpa Chaganti

Let's me sail free, yet holding me together tight
Stays firmly grounded, for me, to attain horizons bright

All through the rough rains, gives me all my might
In the insane winds lets me realize to set my sails right

Silently promising me safety, in the moonless dark night
The love unconditional that holds me sane in the plight

Bound to me all along; in my misery and delight
Caring for me like a baby, never letting me out of sight

Away fighting the storms, guarding me ever, like a knight
Yet at the slightest distress, beside me winning my fight

Calming my anxious nerves with his steady quite
Though weighing down with all his bulk, keeps me cool and light

In the lone seas holding my life out to him with trust forthright;
My Anchor is the reason I see hope of new day at every twilight...
