Broken and Shattered

Broken and Shattered

A stern face, confident eyes, A poised gait and mature look. Expressions were a miss, Making her look like ice. She was alone at home, Her family unknown. She was blamed by some, For living alone at home. Does she possess a heart? Wondered the onlookers. Some thought...

U – Cord

The bond between a mom and a child, Starts much before birth And is made stronger As days pass by. . I look at God's creativity, In complete awe. Just wondering how he could Plan it the way it is. . The connection is made By a small cord, That carries all her Love and...

Tears of Happiness

Tears of Happiness

His big round eyes, Gleamed with joy, As he saw his mother, Come back from exile. She had fought a battle Between life and death, Spending months together, Away from her son. The little boy of ten, Knew that his prayers, Had brought her back, To him and he smiled. His...
