044 It’s all in the mind : Beautiful Spring

/ Monica Ingudam / Leave a comment
Beautiful Spring
Nothing can stop the bloom,
Nothing can stop the beauty,
Blooming out of nowhere,
Blooming in unexpected places,
Bringing surprises,
Bringing smiles,
And I choose to accept the beautiful feelings nature has to offer,
Even if it’s for a short time,
Before the wind and rains snatches it away.

043 It’s all in the mind : Words

Words

Words brings happiness,
Words makes life beautiful,
But words could also be sharper than a knife,
So sharp piercing right through your heart,
Hurting you deeply,
And words once uttered could hardly be forgotten,
Both beautiful and piercing words,
What are your words going to be ?

042 It’s all in the mind : When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down
I miss you,
And my heart aches deeply,
I feel your pain,
Yes, I do feel your pain,
And yet I cannot be next to you,
I can only give you my tears,
I can only give you my thoughts,
And I can only give you my feelings,
And when the sun goes down,
I miss you even more.

Spring
You have defined feelings,
Feelings never felt before,
You have given meaning to the word “Beautiful”,
Bringing out the best in me,
Taking me to a whole new world,
A world I have never seen,
You are precious,
You are special,
You are my spring.

040 It’s all in the mind : Wishes

Wishes
Sitting down on the bank,
Filled with stack of stones everywhere,
Stones stacked up carefully for every wish,
Wishes made by people who came from near and far,
And you wonder if their wishes got fulfilled,
Watching the blue lake,
Hearing only the sound of the wind and trickling water,
Makes you wish stacking stones of your own,
A wish to come back again,
For the moments of serenity.

039 It’s all in the mind : A view from the window

/ Monica Ingudam / Leave a comment
A view from the window
Stained by dirt,
Blackened by soot,
Worn out with old age,
Chained by events of life,
I stay rooted in my place,
With a view from the window,
The view which takes me away,
Away to a beautiful place,
Where there is no limits to my imagination,
Where my mind is free and unchained.

038 It’s all in the mind : The bleeding heart flower

The bleeding heart flower
I see the beautiful bleeding heart flower after years,
Stirring up childhood memories,
Sweet memories of my Mother and her beautiful garden,
The prized possession she treasured,
Instructing us not to pluck but to enjoy the sight as it bloomed,
And today I see the beautiful bleeding heart flower,
I miss my mother even more,
And wish I had wings to fly right back to where you are.

037 It’s all in the mind : A flower for you

/ Monica Ingudam / Leave a comment
A flower for you
She came running with her dimpled smile and twinkling eyes,
Hands at the back,
And demands “Close your eyes”,
I closed my eyes,
Giggling she says “Now, you can open your eyes”,
Tiny hands cupping a beautiful flower,
And she says “A flower for you Mama”,
Placed it gently on my hands and runs away,
Leaving me overflowing with love.

The beginning
Wipe away all your pains,
Wipe away all the stains,
Wipe away all the unfulfilled wishes,
Fill it with laugher,
Fill it with love,
Fill it with colors of life,
You deserve the best of the best,
Good fortune will hunt for you,
And it’s just the beginning,
Happy Cheiraoba Day,
The New Year for Meiteis in Manipur,
A special day for you.
