MOTHERS DAY CARD
Morning starts early, before it gets light Opening cupboards, to see what’s in store Teachable moments, with wrong versus right Hope grabs the car keys, then heads through the door Early bird children, are making their way Ready to take on, another school week So many hurdles, to climb day-by-day Destiny journeys, down these terraced streets Another story, of work’s imbalance Young hungry...

Life is a series of stepping stones A challenge we have to face Each every day We try to keep our balance Winds may blow us over We either make it or we fall Obstacles may get in our way Sometimes we don't make it at all Many try to...

Premium Member Jumping Hurdles
Merrily, my soda hopped, skipped …rolled merrily along, jumping hurdles of falling leaves, sloping t’wards steep driveway. The bottle, fizzing, shaken up - merrily, as I watched it’s descent, hoping it would stop, not hop the boundary. My neighbor, not the sort to laugh. Congregation of leaves held it back, so no disaster. Merrily I retrieved....

The Curious End
I wonder what will it feel like, When I reach the topmost stair of my childhood dreams. If I would be satisfied with the long run, Or I would regret my choice type. I wonder what will it feel like, To conquer all the hurdles and to taste the sweet success. If my happiness...

The Hurdles
THE HURDLES: Explain this won't be a devour, As all this while you considered a diva. He'd set hurdles, Eva... Which's breeding woes and fever. I know you understand that's not trivial, From the university of life, I have become a keeper. Don't wish you fail so I remain liberal. Coast to coast, your actions such lethal; Most truly horrible, detasteful and fatal. Don't...

As If You Are the Happiest
It is just not the way I imagined, It is just not the way I wanted, I see life like roller coaster rides, Turns and twists and hurdles of all kinds, Loud roaring and the powerful slap of the air, Shouting and laughing out loud as if any care. No matter how much you fear, But you dare to...

Wondering Why Life Can'T Be Simple
Wondering why life can't be simple, I look forward and see hurdles, I look back and see the start line, Inches before I started. Wondering why life can't be straight, I look forward and see alternatives, I look back and see wrong choices, Yet choosing which to take, Maybe this or maybe that. Wondering why life can't be happy, I look forward and see despair, I...

The Undying Aspiration
THE UNDYING ASPIRATION. Looking around for something Searching about to see anything Now I found a thing Just to realize it was nothing. I search for it in the sky Limited my dreams to my sight Lifted my eyes and all I could do was to sigh At the twinkling stars popping in the sky. Then it seemed I was engaged in a duel All...

The Tensed Environment
THE TENSED ENVIRONMENT. Hurdles come in between My teaching and preaching About keeping and maintaining The beauty of my horizon. Little did I know That my thoughts were unknown To my users whom I bestowed My body and soul. I have been trying everything within me To make them understand what I mean But they all seem to be numbs and indeed A caricature of...

Hurdles
hurdles - a bunch of needles poking us, to make us hitch our wagon to a star, makes us to be sure of ourself; and pats us to vie for romp to victory hurdles finds where the shoe pinches, now i am not a shrinking violet, as for me passing hurdles is like taking candy away from baby life without hurdles is baby...

Courage
Some thought his mind to be a tender leaf, Yet only he knew ... the battle in his mind: How oft' his mind did seek some sigh of relief From wits that grieved – a burden he did find. Pen like a wild beast, fretted his right hand, And fingers did try to tame it,...
