The lonely tree

I am like a lonely tree in the middle of nowhere
Spreading it branches far and wide
Waiting that weary traveller or a passerby
to lay beneath the tree
and take shelter from the heat.

Many a traveller has come by,
stopped and rested from the heat,
but do I have to wait for that
traveller to come along who
is stil travelling along life's path
and yet to reach me?

Please tell me he has not passed,
without stopping by,
for I still await that traveller

My hubby was proud of me and

To my Dad

Today 24 years ago I remember you dad, A sweet memory of you I have It was a day before my birthday And I was waiting for your call That day the weather seemed gloomy and sad And I wondered why I was excited for it was my birthday the next day, And new red dress I had brought All of sudden there was a down pour of rain Which lasted only five minutes and Then there was sun shine again What a funny weather I thought But that kept me thinking For on my way to college I was, And it wetted my dress From college I returned a little late Hoping to receive your call I was too shocked for the call I got was not that from you to say Happy Birthday But a call from my aunt To say, that you had passed away. Alas it was too late for, You had left me alone in this world And had gone to live in a better place to another world alone. May your soul rest in peace dearest dad After all these years this poem to you I dedicate May you rest peacefully in that world of yours And to thee I pray may you always
