Poem: What if flowers can speak?

By


Looking out from my window, what do I see?

The little flower from my plant is talking to me!

I gasp and cheer, with surprise and fear,

What is next in the story? Peril or glory?


Now I have a new friend, to talk to every day!

And we are similar, in quite a few ways!

We are colorful, cheerful, and thoughtful as well,

Who needs a pet, when a flower is your friend?


I do not know, am I dreaming or living?

Or is this my mind, believing and imagining?

When a flower can talk, this is a magical world,

And now it is spreading, to every boy and girl!

The Daughters

By
 (Just another thought :) The Daughters I am my mother’s savage daughter, I am the reflection of my father’s roar. I am the symbol of success. And the scars and jewels my ancestors have worn. My sister is the one who carries the sword. She is the one who bends the trees. I am the one who manipulates the pathways. I am the one to whom bows the sea. We are the ones that curse the world, Yet we are the ones who want to fill it with glee.

The Ocean's vigil

By
  The Ocean's Vigil Waves diverging, spots between stars. Drifting away, drifting apart. Aquamarine meets royal blue. I wasn't going to make it; that, I knew. Waves lapping against the boat, And the sea breeze tastes of salt. The sun doesn't seem to bow, The light stands tall. Holding the sail - hang tight, stay low. Journeyed far beyond the horizon, What a child I was. Ghosts of tides follow my conscience, In everything I do. Millions know my name. Yet my soul? Very few. I can feel their eyes upon me, Sharp and distinct. But the blue against my body sets me free. I'll stay here until my final dive; All before I go back down to the place I stay. But wh're the travelling lamp meets the sky is the lodging this issue hast known.   Below the wat'rs with the m'rmaids, Yond's the lodging i calleth home. - Prisha Kapadia
