The first snow
Early it was, when I arose today
And looked outside
Flickering bits of snow, I saw
But, my heart cried
Winter is here, it seemed to say
So long and cold,
With a hollow void beside me,
Whom do I hold?
Why are you, my dear love,
So far away?
Wish I could just tell you that,
It snowed today
The glimmering whiteness everywhere,
Prettily shines,
Reminds me of that which
Is only mine
As the snow befalls this place,
I wonder why,
Why is it that humans are not,
Able to fly.
For if I could fly, I would,
Across the seas,
Reach to you and gently touch
You, like the breeze.
But the breeze here feels not gentle

even as I thought of you, even as I wrote this
the distance between us increased
even as I walked on the pavement like everybody else
the distance between us increased
even as the day ended, even as the moon smiled

to keep you away from me
how fortunate those people are
who are there with you
how fortunate they must be indeed!

I lay amid the daunting scape, to try allay the lingering thought
When fresh pack of grimness drape lays on me; my mind distraught
Why must I feel this way, Is it a sign of happiness dead?
Or is it only a darker day of a brighter life ahead?
And that is but a pretty thought, that might give hope for moving on
Of all the recourses that I sought, no dusk gave way and came no dawn
With joy no more, no smile, no song; no feelings that could ail me
Calmness is
A Rainy Day
--------------
The day began with glory's shine
The air was cool and weather fine
The chirp of birds: no less than art
An unknown joy had claimed my heart
And soon the nimbus scaled the sky
The birds had then ceased to fly
But I had welcomed such a sight
My heart had soared, ascent in flight
Deep in thought of you I was
Designs for you I had grandiose
Wind now blew with subtle grace
It made me wish for your embrace
That was when I heard your voice
You had called me by your choice
Wished me luck and all the best
And then you put me to the test
Said you were to leave this place
A statement I could hardly face
