In this moist sand,
I stand.
The waves crashing on the shore,
With a mighty roar
And I see two pairs,
Of footprints in the sand…
Yours & Mine…
The small and cute
Are no doubt, yours.
Like the white sand they are so fine!
The bigger and trollish are mine,
Of that I am sure!
Not long ago did we walk,
Long walks on the beach.
We held together our hands,
And for each other,
Did our hearts reach!
Our walks in the white sand
Are clear like the full moon night in my mind,
And I can still see,
Our footprints in the sand…
When we stared out at the sea,
Nothing was said
But so much was spoken!
Two lost souls sitting on a dune,
Together found everything to their tune!
When we sat lost in each other’s arms,
The magnificent moon showered on us,
All its charms.
You gave me the warmth,
To face the cold.
You gave me the strength,
To face this world!
All good things do come to an end
And one day you left me forever,
Disappearing round the bend.
I thought I could not live without you
Then why is it that I am alive still,
And find this to be untrue?
Why do I then excel in
Whatever I do?
It was then, the answer I found,
The ways of true love
Surely do astound!
You never ever left me
But inside me you are
And will always be alive
And will make me thrive!
With moist eyes,
In the moist sand,
I now stand.
The waves still crashing on the shore
With a mighty roar.
I see only one pair
Of footprints in the sand….

Straight from heart .Thats all what matters..when you speak with you ,you learn to make a poem…when you can put it in words ..you are the poet…still how many thoughts that just come to our mind..when we write it few of them skid away…but if you can connect to essence and then convey it through words …you have said some thing true…words we can read But only poet sees everything himself…and even with that short coming if you can make some feel at least partially what you feel..its a success…rhyme and technique can be learned…beauty has to be seen…good job ..keep it up…
