Her tiny tale of love...

That racy morn she stepped towards him,
Sat by his side as he closed his eyes.
Hair half wet and a glow on her skin,
Little did she know, this wasn't wise!

She stroked his arm with her gentle touch,
"Wake up sweetheart, it's getting late!"
Half sleepy but fully awake,
He smiled and left the rest to fate!

She knew what he wanted for that smile was new,
Of course she was waiting, desiring the same,
Resting her hand now on his chest,
She tried to wake him up again.

This time he held her tight in his arms,
Bringing her closer as she turned red.
The perfect picture, a beautiful moment,
As they caressed each other lying on the bed!

She looked at him with eyes full of love,
As he smiled again in her arms,
He heart beat faster as she got lost,
She was a prey to all his charms...

No one between them as love took over,
Gently they kissed and all felt right.
He had brought to life what was dead inside her,
Out of the darkness, she came to light!

She still remembers the taste, his lips, his tongue,
That fragrance, the touch is fresh on her mind.
Those ten minutes of life that she really lived,
Made her fall in love... Love that's truly blind!!!

THE PEARL NECKLACE

I never gave enough thought,
To this beautiful yet simple thing,
Resting in my wardrobe since forever,
Shining bright white without bling!

Lying in a carved wooden box,
Waiting to adorn my neck with grace,
Tied together in a gentle thread,
Lay in elegance my pearl necklace.

It's visits outside my closet were rare,
For I never valued it as much as gold.
It never charmed me like silver did,
And pearl stories, unlike diamonds, are untold!

And one morning unfine, the box felt dull,
I opened it to hear hollowness that screamed,
From inside the wood as the necklace was missing,
Empty! Dark! Coarse! And nothing beamed...

I now miss the necklace,
For I know not where it has gone.
I feel incomplete without my priceless possession,
But they keep on saying, "Life moves on!"

And they utter the same words,
When I shed a tear or two,
In your memory that lives with me,
Oh Grandma! I really miss you!


You were like that pearl necklace,
Beautiful, serene and always bright..
I wish I could turn back time for a while,
To hear your voice and to feel your light!

I wish I could still touch your skin,
Full of wrinkles, warm, soft and old,
Your aura like the string of pearls,
That's above all diamonds, silver or gold!

Never did I spend much time with you.
Lesser each day as older I grew!
My heart held love and care but I forgot,
That nothing is forever and you were growing too!

Now that you are gone, I pray you're safe,
In another world, life or space..
And I promise to keep you in my heart forever,
My white shining pretty pearl necklace!!!
