Sunday Poem: End of Time
Thursday, 11 March 2010 08:49
End of time
After a while
it was the end of time
A time immemorial that lies beneath
Lost in its twists and twirls
curves and holes, it has fallen
finally freed from the black hole
i feel alive and living
just like the olden days
though I know,
forlone are the golden days
Memories that won't die
Stories that will not lie
A treasure trove have I kept
of the yonder years that has gone by!

My First Poem - A rendition 37 years later
Thursday, 11 March 2010 08:49
This poem is about my little sister who was having problems understanding why the sky would turn dark and the rain would start pouring after the brambroum of thunder and the shattering lighting on the tree branches. She clutched a mango leaf thinking it would save a tree from the thunder...and I wrote the poem on a piece of newspaper cutting. This version is a modern one indeed as the first was written 37 years ago!
