Two people of my life
They are the angels sent by Supreme Power
Protecting me from each problematic hour
They thrilled my life with much excitement
Filling me with a sense of caring sentiment
They swept away each hardship of my way
Creating a joyous bright hopeful ray
They boost me to dream high
They make my life sparkle like a glittering star
Satisfying each minute need which was far
They moulded me into an educated girl
Encouraging me to face the tough world
They fulfilled every requirement of my life
Necessary for me to survive
They two together are my parents just like sweet honey
Who are the heroes in smoothening my life’s troublesome journey
They acted as a ladder through which I could rise
But are truly heavenly divine messengers in disguise
As a daughter I cannot repay their sacrifice
But can work to achieve something for them.

Free of charge
The best gift of God is free of charge
Whatever is best is free of charge
The price tag is not attached
With any of God’s gifts to mankind.
Look around and assess ….
The beauty of an ocean
The purity of the air
The beauty of nature.
The air that we breathe
The stream that is running by
The flower that bloom in the night
The birds that sing in the woods.
The animals in the forest
The butterfly in the garden
The shellfish under the water
The rainbow in the sky.
The fish that wriggle
The frog that struggle
The ferry that’s in peril
Knows it well that God cares for them all.
The child who lisps
The lad who profess
The aged who stumble
Know it well that God cares for them.
The Lily of the Valley
The swallow on the willow
The Lion in the den
Knows it well that God cares for them.

Reminiscences
Eyes filled with clouds which rain
Hope this never happens again
My mind seems to whirl as a stream
I awaken and parting was the dream
I wish to hold the time so tight
That it never again gives me a fright
I found you always beside me
Yet making me feel I’m free
All those memories have sunk into my heart
I won’t forget them unless killed by a dart
Everyday that’s what I pray
Even in the darkest of nights you may find your way
Hope the love never fades away
And in my life forever you may stay.
