My Own

2007 March 31
by Suraksha

There is so much to give
But yet, I want to give you
Something that is my own
A slice of the blue sky
The yellow of the sun
A spoonful of moonshine
Half of a bulbul’s song
Few waves of the ocean
A box of butterflies
Some glittering dreams
And a fistful of life.

    love it! love it!

    not to sound silly, but it also has two of my favourite words (favourite because i love the way they sound) – slice and glittering!

    sorry, i think i’ll stop now. :p

    Bravo!

    Wonderful poem. The schema of words in itself depicts a place lying somewhere beyond the words.

    hey you, i like it! ’spoonful of moonshine’ rolls of the tongue so wonderfully. and ‘fistful of life’ is a fabulous closing–edgy, ragged.
