Broken Heart ??

You lighted up my life,
With your big, round, beautiful
soulful eyes,
With squeaks and squeals - annoying
at times but delightful in its own way,
Making me love you, squirming your way
into my heart.















Coffee madness, That's
what I named you & your mate,
Expresso and Latte,
My expression of love for coffee -
and for furry cuties such as yourself.
Now Latte is all alone - on his own,
And I cannot help feeling the same,
Do I ever regret? - I should have cuddled you
carried you & pampered you
When the sun was still nigh...


Broken Heart,
Is this how it feels?
When we regret something time cannot change,
When we wish things were done -
a little bit differently,
When it is too late....
to cry one's eyes out?


***Rest in peace dearest Expresso. You'll be sorely missed.

Soft Sigh

The cool air of morn
Tiny chirping of birds
Saw her awake
Bright eyed
Full with abundant promises

Noon came
Swiftly on Zephyr's wings
Saw her busy
As busy as a bee
Full with the vigour of youth

Dusk rolled
Hot behind noon's heels
Saw her waiting
Dinner hot on the stove
Fully marinated with love

Shadows fall
Creeping along moonlit wisps
Saw her needy
'Help...' just a little cry
Full of trust, faith, confidence...

Disenchantment crashed
Waves after waves
Within...wild, turbulent
Calm, serene...without
As the rosy pink of dawn

Ah, frustrated yesterday
Let-down today
Defeated tomorrow
Disappointed future
Saw her soft yet deep sigh....
Poor sweet soul

As How Love Is...

As how nectar is to bees,
As how water is to plants,

As how sunlight is to the blind,
As how air is to humankind,

The most important thing,
As it is....continue being so to me,

Oh, dear love of mine!
