If I could control the dates and time,
Spending time with you, I wish I am
but since that is not possible....,
Thinking of you is all that I am able!
6th of March seems so far away,
24th August is also far at bay,
I know you know I am thinking of you,
I am here making your favorite stew
If I had wings to spread,
I would use them as flying carpet,
If I had eyes which could see from afar,
I would love to see you now from here
Though I had none of these,
I still could give you big motherly squeeze
Can you smell my worn-out sweater?
As if I am there in real feather?
You have not been away for long,
Yet I feel you have gone a lifelong
Wish we had spent more time before
Moments of such are those I adore
Luckily there is this thing called internet
A Program called ‘Skype' is a real asset
The distance between us can be offset
We can keep talking from dawn till sunset!
This poem was penned on one rainy day of 2010 when I missed my two boys, one studying in Scotland and the other in New Zealand.
