(Writing poetry has never been my area of forte, though I very much aspire it to be. But I do try my hand at it once in a while. This is one such amateur attempt. )
Sweet Stranger
Life...teasing, playful, full of surprise
At every bend it is difficult to surmise
What the new day will bring and who you will meet today
Someone you've just seen but feel you've known from far away
It throws at you treasures that you travelled the world to get
Simple sweet moments in disguise that you can never forget
In a hundred reasons to cry it will send you one to smile
In the form of a sweet stranger amongst this world of guile
So it is true after all, life never gives up on you
It gives you second chances, perhaps a third too
In all its twists and turns, don't you see a pattern?
There is always daylight after the dark, and you are not to give up!

ReplyDelete"There is always daylight after the dark, no matter which way our life would turn"
