Untitled Affections

Walk with slow steady steps
And keep walking, my friend,
Speak out in simple smiles
And keep talking, dear friend.

Just hold on to my hands
Whenever you feel the need,
And lean on my shoulders
When you quiver like a reed.

Stich the threads of your life
Feeling comfort and joy,
Fly through silver-tipped clouds
And wade through painted skies.

Tie the sapphire beads of love
And break away from solitude,
Unshackle your soul from pain
And let in the light of prelude.

And then let's make music
In each other's caring arms,
And let's sing those love songs
That keep winter hearts warm.


Hey friends, sorry for being the runaway tramp again, but all I have as free time is about 15 minutes in a tiresome winter day... and as much as I want to be back here, things are getting  more and more difficult... I appreciate all your well-wishes and kind gestures.... I hope to find a way to return back all the caring that all you friends have given me so far...

Sincere Regards,
Sudhir.

As long as you drop in from time to time and
sprinkle gems like this for us to read from
your pen...this is so beautiful...the arms
of a friend are the only safe place to
lay...absolutely perfect~

It's not the same without you, so hurry home soon...

Sudhir,
Your writing is an olive branch
But comes on like an avalanche.
Well done my friend. Sy

Sudhir-What a lovely piece from you.  I always treasure the times when I see your name up here as you know.  You don't need to worry about how much time you have to spend with us.  Just a little peek in from you especially when they are verses as wonderful as this is enough.  We will be here for you when you get back just as we are now.  Take care my friend.
