tough times

I see you

in these tough times

and that is enough

fragile

fragile as a drop of rain

perched on the tip of a leaf

our life … our existence

back to basics

listening to the birds

feeling the spring breeze

back to basics

homebound

we have come a long way

nature has us homebound

unprecedented times

younger me

hey you! the younger me

live your life simply mindfully

you will be a better older you

pandemic

why did we need

a pandemic to break borders

hope its a lesson learnt

whisper

he still thinks of me

she whispers in my ear

the balmy summer breeze

nature’s wrath

longing for freedom

the mighty nature’s wrath

has all quarantined

I know you care

as I age

so do you

as my hair turn grey

I can see your silver locks too

my eyes wrinkle as I smile

so do yours

my back hurts and my joints creak

I can see you popping a pill too

I love to grow old with you

I adore the camaraderie we share

is it still love or companionship

but whatever it is

I know you care

words with wings

if my poetry had wings

the words would have flown to you

inundating you with love
