A Reminder of Dancing Days

It was a cold day and a rush hour that packed the train. I'm travelling home, tomorrow's a labouring day. A winter in London, not white snow but a drizzling rain.

Living in the same town

I wouldn’t want to be you, mostly not even near you. When you’re gone they will curse you, and raise the tide up against you. I no longer care now, for what you said wasn’t fair now.

My Life As A Sari ( poem published in 'indigo Journal')

Securely tuck your fears under elastic at the centre of your waist with your left hand, and with your right, hold the remaining metres of spun silk - your future, facing inside.

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS

My Poem on my feelings of home, for National Poetry Day.

Everyday, I come here to learn, I walk through the corridors and courtyards just to reach the room that will give me the keys to the future. Like myself, there are many other doing the same.

Existence

The meaning behind this poem is quite difficult to pick out. I'd like to know your thoughts, and then I will reveal the meaning afterwards =D

I may not be a stand up comedian, but I seem to make you laugh. I may not be a supermodel, but you see me as a muse. I may do things that are wild, but it makes you more inspired.

If you are not moving, its because you need not to

And next door, a woman and her son are sorting out a house, I think, but hope its not because everything got too impossible for the woman that lived there because I might have offered to help
