SUNAYNA

PAL

To, Child

Every time you cry

Know that I am nearby

I hear your shrieks

I hear your sobs

I even know

Of your unsaid thoughts

Every time you cry

Know that I am nearby

The pain that you feel

And the sorrow in your voice

Pierces my heart

And breaks my soul

Every time you cry

Know that I am nearby

I wish I could help you.

I wish I could tell you

Not to waste your tears

It is only life being life

Every time you cry

Know that I am nearby

Forgive and forget

Everything will be okay

Smile and move on

Life will be wonderful soon.

Every time you cry

Know that I am nearby

I Know

I know, I know, I know.

How difficult it is to grow

with heat and weeds and bugs,

blow after blow after blow.

I know.

It all starts with a seed

with so much labor and love

it finally, actually yields.

Without any shield,

it grows, I know.

But what can I say?

I wish there was a simpler way.

All are busy with their struggles

every night and every day.

I know.

But you know what? You will grow

No matter how much it gets hot.

Rest all your negative thoughts .

For you will grow.

I surely know.

In His Bubble

His strong bubble

Protects me from each blow.

Cushions life's sharpness

and supports me

Always.

Unhurt I grow.

Prayer and faith

keeping the bubble strong

and Un – burstable.
