Geetha Munnurcode
I stand upright as a nourished tree
Germinated out of the best of seeds,
Brought up as a cultivated breed,
Well fed by the softest nutrient soil,
Purity flowing in and out of my trunk,
On the wide spread entangled
roots,
Cooled under the best of
shades
Of an enormous family tree!
I grew faster competing with
the times
Build up the self, gaining
strength!
Now I flourish in deeper
greens
All the rosy loves flowering
around!
Beaming sweet faces to
surround
Ripening day by day I
consume
Drops of love and rays of
hope!
But, I dare not to look at
Those trickling drops of
time
That would turn into a
current
And wash away this wealth of
life.
