The silence pregnant with words,
The gentle breeze in between,
The gaze that tell it all,
The feeling like a free fall!

The presence that is full of life,
The distance, yet the proximity
The warmth of the softest touch,
The smile that means so much.

The blinking of the eyes,
The hair playing in the air,
The face so serene, so reposeful
Oh, I wish they were here,
with me all the while, all the time…

The first flight !


The brilliance of the sun's rays flood the nest,

the tiny creature hopps out..

oh! its another day..it thinks


Flutters the bird from a branch to another,

spreading its feathers..preparing itself

for a start of a day anew..


It looks out into the endless horizon,

Its a big big world, dangers out fo her

some seen..some silent...


Thinks the meek soul to itself,

should she venture out alone?

she has parted from her mother not a day ago!


Frightened she is.. to face it all by herself,

apprehensions arouse within her little heart..

has the time really arrived?


With a staggering effort she begins her flight,

her first flight, her first endeavour.

Into the treacherous world where she must learn to fit in..

In a world where she must build a place for herself!
