Vera Sidhwa Poems

Morning came and the sun-up was dazzling.
The rays caught on my eye lashes.
I went to visit this sun.
I asked him why he was so fun.
...

I frolicked in the garden of delight,
Where everything or everything was right.
The flowers sang songs,
Of where they belonged,
...

I knew so much, I knew everybody,
I really know the names of flowers.
Something kept bother me though.
I thought I knew nothing about anybody.
...

Morning came and I was interested in you.
I cried and cried, till my face turned blue.
Why did you not pay me attention last night.
I didn't think it was right.
...

I thought we were okay on this.
Don't do this.
But you were bent on it.
You did this.
...

I bought apples and oranges,
And rolled them down the sidewalk.
All the kids did the same.
We made apple juice
...

This was it,
Didn't you know?
I was awe struck,
When I saw it grow.
...

You make me mad, so go away.
But you make me sad, so please come back.
You and I will dance this way,
Till it comes up, the sun's ray.
...

What were you saying?
Did you say 'Ilove you? '
You never quite say it,
Though I wanted you to.
...

I saw the tiny droplet fall,
And listened.
It's sound was so soft,
This sound glistened.
...
