Time's Strange Timing.........! ! ! Poem by FAHMINA ARJUMAND MISHA

I WAS HELD IN SPOT LIGHT
AND WAS MADE THE SPARK OF THE NIGHT

IT WAS LOVELY AND EMBARASSING TOO
BUT I WAS HAVING FUN
AS I RECIEVED COMPLIMENTS AND PRAISINGS
WHICH I HEARD NOT VERY OFTEN

THERE WAS CELEBRATIONS AND RITUALS
CARRIED OUT WITH PEACE AND HARMONY
FLOWERS AND SWEETS ATTRACTED ME
EVEN THE RAIN ATTENDED THE CEREMONY

I WAS NOT KNOWING I WAS HAPPY OR NOT BUT
MY FAMILY'S HAPPINESS ERASED THAT THOUGHT
NEW RELATIONS EMERGED RATHER THAN SISTER OR DAUGHTER
SOMETIMES I FELT STRANGE AND SOMETIMES IT GAVE ME LAUGHTER

LIKE RHYMING IS A KIND OF POETRY
WHERE DIFFERENT WORDS SHOW THEIR
CHEMISTRY

SO OUR LIFE IS ALSO A TYPE OF RHYMING
WHERE DIFFERENT PEOPLE MEET ACCORDING TO THEIR
TIMING.........! ! !
