A Friend

 

Just around the corner is a friend indeed

When called upon in need.

Sincere, vibrant, resilient

A flower in the garden

Or a companion in silence

Treading the path of life

Inch by inch or mile by mile

Leaving the footsteps behind

For us to remind

The time that we shared

With the heart that cared

It flew like a feather

Yet falls back from ether

Ever so gently to rest upon memory

Light and soft is remembrance’s touch indeed.

A listener, a teacher, a friend indeed

Just around the corner

When called upon in need.

Savita Tyagi

Love Is A Boomrang

 

 Love is a Boomerang

Let is fly, wide and high

Let it touch just one heart

Put a smile on just one face

And watch its return bring back to you

A thousand colors of brilliant light

Love is a boomerang

Let it fly wide and high

Tune your heart to its music

Listen to its vibrations

Scintillating high in the air

And bursting back with the songs of joy

Love is a Boomerang

Let it fly wide and high

Like a spirit pure and free

Wandering in the clouds for love’s delight

To catch a rainbow from the sky.

Love is a Boomerang

Let it fly wide and high.

Note-- couple of lines of this poem were written in .98 with memories of my children playing in park with boomerang. It took its present shape and special meaning for me at the time of my son's marriage.
