MEENA

This is just a little piece i wrote for my first baby that came way too early and never came home with me 22 years ago. Just because time moves on it does not mean you ever forget

Like a beautiful brave Snowdrop you dared to break the soil.

Too early in the scheme of things ,too special for life's toil.

You could not wait in darkness and you knew your time was short.

So you chose to burst your bubble to show the world there's light with dark.

And through the Earth you travelled , so small and on your own,

Everything thing inside me tried to keep you in my womb

So strong of will inside me you knew no summer would you see

But you saw this chance to break the soil and for one moment be revered 

Soft and pure ,so beautiful, full of strength and grace.

Life so short it feels unfair yet there's none that takes your place.

And in my darkest Winters, when my world is cold and i feel alone

I pick a tiny Snowdrop and i bring my Meena home.
