elna mercado Poems

To a woman s ordinary
With character extra ordinary.
You open your arms to accept rejects,
Fighting odds to make them fell they’re not objects.
...

You gave us hope,
In our moments of hopelessness,
Allowing our tears to wash out all pain,
Embracing us in your heart
...

I’m an expression of life,
A sure contender of death,
Facet of eternity.
...

Karachi, Karachi,
The place so distant, arid and dusty.
The streets are strange, eerie and empty.
I walked through the roads,
...

5.

Mish, Misha, Mishosha, Mishasho,
Like running water,
You have always somewhere to go.
You seem everywhere but where are you?
...

Mothering is the most difficult task to do
And here I am the mother of two.
Most of the time I do not know
But as I go along, I learn as I do.
...

I continue to pray
For your well being
And for your strength,
Your life has beautiful intention!
...

You are an inspiration
Who makes me see
What I cannot.
...

My tee off must sound wang,
Onwards to the fairway with a bang!
At least this what I imagined
Otherwise I'm not challenged,
...

Can we appreciate sweetness,
If sweetness is all we know?
Can we give meaning,
If there’s no lesson to be learned?
...

11.

I’m shocked to receive
The news of your demise:
Death while in laughter…
I want to cry
...

It began long before the walk,
From home there’s enormous caulk,
No one can convince my folks.
Merits I must exhibit and earn.
...

No one know about daughterhood,
Parenting parents is not parenthood.
I’m a daughter whose role switches
Coping beyond virtue’s stretches.
...

The Best Poem Of elna mercado

On Norms 65th Birthday

To a woman s ordinary
With character extra ordinary.
You open your arms to accept rejects,
Fighting odds to make them fell they’re not objects.
You have a unique humble ways to instill hope,
Many students can appreciate and cope.
You have taken parents’ hopelessness,
Lessons we learned from your graciousness.
For you nobody is out of reach,
Small gentle words is what you preach.
Even parents seek it and blessed with your friendship,
I remain a friend redefining kinship.
You have given me a gift,
Not the kind with ribbons but it gives my soul a lift.
Now I am giving you this honor,
Because you made me realize my valor.
For me life is what we make it,
But it is better if there’s a friend who help you bear it.
