An October Girl

A wild wind flower
In the month of October
With wide brown eyes
Blossomed prematurely
The little nose dimple
Let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

When that long slender body
Squeaked in Mom’s arms
Those rose petal lips
When pouted pleasingly
Her sharp shrill cries,
Let everyone around

Bewildered, Bewildered

Since the age of four
In negation of norms
To refute the orders
In defiance of society
All behavioral reforms
Rebellious shrugs
Wide resentful eyes,
Let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

During years of teen
Mood swings, sobriety
Extremes of emotions
Philosophical sensibility
Her talents to compose
Sonnets, moving poetry
But that sadness
In adolescence
Let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

With mind ahead of times
With heart full of desires
An apple of daddy’s eyes
And Mommy’s little wonder
Love was around her
Her soul craved to wander
Erroneous choices of hers
Let everyone around

Bewildered, Bewildered

From a bud to flower
She blossomed to wither
Like a lost hare of fable
She acquired it all,
However too late
That surrender, that patience
Let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

All was predestined
Or what was the case?
For the anguish and hardships
Why was she chosen?
What were the reasons?
Why did she roulette?
And let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

Why withering so soon?
Pretty pink lips grumbled
Wide brown eyes rose
Flourished flowers of hope
Green sprouts of fresh goals
Luck again brought back
That weather so cruel
Again she scuffled
Again she fumbled
And let every one around

Bewildered, Bewildered

In search of spring
To fill that vacuum
For that lasting bloom
She glued her petals
She watered her roots
She cultivated exotic
Gathered tart fruits
Cropped novel wishes
Then she understood

She wasn’t the flower
Of the month of April
In spring season only
That rejoice to blossom

Her splendor, her charms
Her fragrance, her nectar
Her colors, her patterns
Germinates, enhanced
Whenever arrived
That autumn so awesome


With new wisdom lightening
In her wide brown eyes
An October girl
Resumed her magic and
Let everyone around

Bewildered, bewildered.

I am a fish

I am a fish who wants to fly
Instead of deep, dark, dim
Murky waters
I want to breathe in
Clean and clear
Wide and open sky

Life in ocean, sea, or lake,
River or aquarium,
Bowl or glass case
Smolders, suffocates me

On earth surface
Where water is shallow
Life wherever I see
A wild race to follow

With no competition
In my own space
I am a fish on earth surface
I would like to swim
At my own set pace

I don’t want to swim
Where big eats small
Jagged jaws creatures
Killer squids’
Evil octopuses’ toll

Deep, dim lit waters
Drown me always
Fancy glass aquarium
Corrode my glaze
Jubilant River
Choke my pace
Stillness of Lakes
Declare death in my case

I am a fish
Doesn’t want to swim
In misty waters
I don’t want to live
Where darkness, clutter
Forever prevails
Precious stones shrouded
Ignored or defamed
Sunshine is far fetched
A dream, a myth
A fairytale

I am a fish who wants to fly
High and above
Pure and untamed sky

I want to float
With clouds on my side
With nature so sweet

To give
To stay
Together with all
No white no black
No Tall or small
They accumulate all
The little ones, the tiny
Drops of water
Smallest of all
Together they float
Together they give
To the unkind earth
Rain water to live
I want to swim
Freely float and fly
Above the clouds
Beyond seventh sky

Explore new dimensions
A fish in transition

Who does not want fins
Trade limbs to wings
Get tickets to fly.
Wide and open
Beyond restrictions
Farther away
From seventh sky
