This year the vivid red of my heart changed colour,
This year the brightest colours seemed duller.
This year the lips and the heart got inebriated,
This year I felt both empty and satiated.
This year sometimes my heart skipped a beat,
At times the ground was shaken below my feet.
I sat on the steps with a friend,
At times when the pain knew no end.
I found warmth in loved ones' arms,
The storm in the sea was suddenly calm.
This year at times silence was beautiful,
Though there were times solitude was painful.
This year I laughed till the stomach ached,
I also cried whenever the heart ached.
This year was eventful, forever it seems,
I saw many nightmares and a few dreams.
As the sun sets at the horizon,
To rise again next year
I pray to the Almighty,
For another eventful year!

You can sip that coffee,
And allow me that solitary smoke,
365 times the sun rose,
And the smoke sometimes made me choke,
The throat burned,
Inside me the wise man spoke,
Take those steps with your beutiful friend,
And 365 times I learned,
Some people are lovely,
Some write poems,
Some grow distant,
Some hear my songs,
Make that shelf shine,
And there's no need for no wine,
Coz memories,
They are of yours and mine.
Sweta, your little creations are simple yet lovely. Just remember that nothing seems bright till somehting else seems dull. You are a source of brightness to your world.
