A Beautiful Landing

From the land of god and routes of skies

Wearing the beauty of heavens, she flies

Pacing with warmth, to a baby that cries

Feeling her soft touch, I opened my eyes

 

“Show me your smile and wipe all tears.

I’m here to relieve you of all your fears.”

 

“Thanks for coming angel, I was very scared,

I cried my heart out, but nobody cared.”

 

The tap of her feet, the clink of her bangles, whenever I heard

Across the nettings of my cradle, I stealthily peered

Her presence made me happy, I smiled and purred

What would happen of me without her, I always feared

 

Thank you for being there for me on my first day

And every day which was there in my life’s array

I couldn’t thank you, or cared to, all the way

Maybe I just realised your worth and value today
