    Thank you god

    A child on the way
    A smiling flower gay
    Eternal dewdrops’ touch
    Glimpse of my first crush
    I asked for little
    You bestowed everything

    What a sweet and humble poem. I loved it!

    Oh, yeah, Ashy, Those last two lines: beautiful.
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    This is really beautiful, and of course in a few words you said lots of things. The beauty of it is that it condenses lots of ideas, ranges of meanings. I do not know what I got in this piece I really got immersed.

    Notwithstanding whatever the poet has to say, something spiritual or others, the profundity of the poem moved me beyond imagination.

    “Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””

    “If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.
