poem written twenty years back by me

Twenty years  back on this  day  my first grand daughter   was born to me  . I wrote                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Arid     Land

P.R.Ramachander the  first time  granpa   of the  Angel wrote on 13th June 2000 :-

My mind was a lush green field.

Waving and chirping to the world,

“I am happy and happy,

Because of my kids,

Who are the nectar and ambrosia,

For all my time to come.”

But one day, the little birds flew,

Out of the nest of my house,

For destinations unknown.

My mind became an arid land,

Then came an angel,

With a captivating smile,

With a cooing sweet little sounds,

“I am thine ,granpa,”

She sang and sang,

And made my cheeks,

Wet with her lovely kisses divine.

“I am thine but not thine,

And I am the rain maker of love.”

She cooed with her magical smile,

Yes, little dear, I nodded my weary head,

The tons of happiness, that you had brought,

In this little while, in this arid land,

Will make it wet, for all time to come.
