I wrote this poem on my daughter's birthday. I am away from my daughter from a long time and looking forward to seeing her.
I Was Lost
Among these colorful butterflies and flowers,
I am still in search of a butterfly
Which colored my dull life,
With thousands of colors….!!!
Saffron of Laughter, Rose of Smile,
Mauve of Joy, Violet of Tranquility,
Purple of Accomplishment, Silver of Admiration,
Gray of Prosperity and Blue of Prayers!
And many more uncountable colors.
And I am in search of flowers,
Which filled my hearth with fragrances and aromas
Thousands of aromas..!!!
Aroma of Love and Rose, aroma of Friendship and Jasmine,
Aroma of Madness and Bluebells, aroma of Dreams and Daffodils,
Aroma of motherhood and Lotus, Aroma of Fulfillment and Daisy,
Aroma of Sunshine and Sunflower.
And I was soaked into these colors and scents,
I was lost….and lost these too….
Today, to endeavor and to strive,
Writing on a blank and colorless page,
That you are my search, my yearning,
This is my destination,
And God is with me.
My Lovely daughter.
