Poem91.Remnants


                                                                     Remnants


Remnants for you,
but a treasure for me,
remembrance of gone days.

 childhood spent around Grandpa
  the star of my small eyes.
 red sofa, his favorite spot .

Sitting there so majestic
used to tell mighty stories,
and reading was a craze.

With broad outlook, clever so calm
never heard shouting but was strong
                                                         ready solutions just in hand.

That were days so filled with joy,
 love, affection there in air,
he, so proud  to be my gpa.

Now also when I go there
hear him talking as before,
Hallucination might be, but for me just real.

It is written for The Mag145  where we have to write on a photo prompt.

Poem 16. Dear Grandpa



Dear Grandpa


How I loved to hear you talk
experiances of your walk ,
you my idol. grandpa dear
how I wish, you were here.


You made my childhood bright
with great love your inward light.
 How gentle you  then were
Sweet grandpa miss you dear.

When others talk about you
I feel something in my eyes
May be, my love for you
comes out in the form of tears.

Why did you move away
leaving your child alone?
In my mind, be with me
guide me, on my way.
