Wings Of Spring
Today, I woke up, To the melodious sane, Twittering on the Hawthorn tree, Just by my windowpane… Reflecting the Sun’s warm hug, With a warmth so pure, Embraced my wretched soul To find solace in nature’s cure… For the tears have now dried, And my heart bears weight no more, So, I gently propped my…

Love At First Glance
One wintery morning in early March, I bumped into a handsome guy while walking my golden retriever, Honey. The caramel latte I was carrying in my hand spilled all over the new light pink coat my grandmother gave me for Christmas. The guy blushed and said, “Sorry, I didn’t see you there. My name is…
