It’s of Life
I see me in your laps again
Saying this bountiful lore
Back to you after times
I stepped into this world
As humble as you taught
And, I watched my tread
With the wisdom you gave
I went through life
Amidst bitter songs
But I always spread
The sweetness of your love
There came a time,
Difficult to bear
When I moved alone
Saw you nowhere
And then I dreamt
There was an emerald of eternal peace
In a distant land
The touch of whom
Would bring solace to the soul
Oh mother,
I seek this emerald
The intense of green
That would be for life
Uncover the hidden folds
Of suspect and disbelief
That keep it away
Shielded in illusion.
It is for once in life that
The child seeks an emerald !
