EVERYDAY

The morning dewdrops reflected the blue sky and the brilliant sun,
Whose warmth and brightness penetrated through clustered clouds.
Birds prepared themselves for the first concert of the day,
As more adorable and lively creatures stirred, stretched, and emerged from their shelters.
People were energized with optimism and excitement of a brand new beginning.
Each of them dressed slightly different, and went on varying paths that led them to their professions,
And the city was once again filled with sounds and movement,
That were signs of hard work and dedication.

As the sun slowly descended along the sloping mountains,
People looked out from the window to enjoy the picturesque landscape under colors of red and yellow,
And were satisfied with another fulfilling day concluded with a grand period.
The thoroughfare was packed with passengers longing for the warmth and tenderness of homes.

Attractive aroma of dishes,
And Infectious laughter,
Made up the merry atmosphere of a family reunion.
The moon,
Dangling from the sky above,
Radiating out its pure light…

A typical, normal day…
A beautiful, heartwarming day…
Treasure every moment of your life,
For once it passes,
You will forever lose that split second,
That’s full of memories and yearning.


Dream


Dream is the foundation of a magnificent skyscraper,
Supporting all exciting activities that happen inside.
It is the inspiration that creates a wondrous landmark,
And the fierce desire that strives for better and higher.
Everyone takes the buildings stability for granted,
Yet without the base, the building would only have been a pile of bricks,
That give in to their fate and never dream about reaching the sky.

Dream is an invisible hand,
Its fingers propel us forward with enthusiasm and strength.
Its palm supports and protects us,
Offering us a safe harbor that is far away from the abyss of depression and hopelessness.
Because of its invisibility,
We never even realize its existence until we are trapped inside darkness,
And crave for sparkles of light that would lead us through difficult times.
The light is dream, inextinguishable and blazing.

Dream is a ships sail,
Without it we would lose direction and neglect the objective of our life.
Devastated by the unknown future
Or too vain and arrogant about achievement in the present.

Dreams are wings that empower us to fly over landscape of Imaginations.
All we need to live a life full of exciting dreams
Is to have the courage to dream.




Eerie Elegance

Many hold their breaths to adoreAn elegant medieval painting
Created by careful brush strokes and vivid colours,
In the eerie corridor of a grand castle.


The Race

So much depends upon
the finish line of the race,
moistened by athletes' sweats and unwavering faiths,
Underneath footprints of hardwork and persistence.

Your Eyes...

Your crystal blue eyes,
Are like the bright stars on a dark and chilly night,
So bright, so dazzling.
Like the marble that children play with at school,
Like the diamond that shines on the flawless skin of a princess.
Like the scorching flames of an eruptive volcano,
Like the calming waters of a morning sea,
Pure and attractive.
Like the valuable china treasured by everyone,
Like the gleaming jade on a desirable bracelet.

Fragile, delicate yet splendid.

To Mom,

Mom,
A word of love and attachment.
A kind, compassionate, and caring individual.
A selfless woman, who places her family’s needs before anything. 

1998, April.
Mom gazed at her baby. An angel in her eyes. 
She hugged her closely. 
It was the best present she had ever received.
She vowed to care for her, the apple of her eye, in every way possible.

2004, September.
The little girl started her first day of school.
Helping her put on uniforms, brushing her hair, reminding her to be respectful to teachers.
Mom stood looking at the girl taking unsteady yet exciting steps towards the school.
Mom was worried, but also very very proud and happy.

2014, April.
The little girls has grown up. 
She has turned sixteen. 
Mom comforts her when she encounters failure, encouraging her to never give up.
Mom lets her choose what she wants to do, 
Mom cares not  only about grades,
Mom wants the girl to pursue her dream with bravery, confidence, and happiness.
Because Mom knows,
“the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

2014, May
The girl hugged Mom and whispered in her ears,
“Happy Mother’s Day”

A bring smile was on Mom’s face.
