The Withering/Hollow Tree



The day my nightingale left me,
I was left to be the withering tree.
Years after, a farmer took some plight
Tried to do what he felt was right
Built around me a fence
Watered me every day and gave me fertilizer
Sadness now became a past tense
I could see the future that was really brighter

And I thought I now had everything.
Life will come with such mighty blow
I did not have inkling,
I would become so hollow.

I withstood lots of ups and down in my life
But the termites were in rife
Made me hollow from inside
The only option i was left with now
Was to die slowly like this or to commit suicide.


Once withering tree from outside,
I was now Hollow tree from inside..

At first i could feel some sensation, But it was proving to be just vexation Somewhere between hope and fear lied my anticipation There was tussle between the two, Whoever wins the battle will get you. In the end it was hope that stood victorious Dancing with joy was a body that once stood lifeless Once a withering tree is now a blossoming flower :-) All because of the love and care that you shower...

EVEN SUFFERINGS HAVE AN ENDING

With the bird singing and sun rising, I was engrossed in deep thinking, What will this festival of diwali bring. will the festival of light curb the darkness and end my suffering. Even a single moment is enough to make life devastating. It was memories from the past that my mind was nourishing Ah! It was one fine morning, when I was in my office and she gave me a ring, telling me that she was expecting. there was happiness on our door knocking in the form of angel with a wing That day she seemed like a queen and i the invincible king. But all happy things have an ending, She was lying in front of me and her hands were waving "Take care of our daughter" she said to me before going I was yearning, She was leaving I felt helpless seeing her dying In my lap was my daughter with her eyes asking, What happened to mother , why is she sleeping, 'wake up mother, i will always do what you say", she went to her grovelling and there i was standing with my eyes crying and my hear...
