»I really dont know

 

I don’t know what else could I have so stupendously
cherished for; without your majestically seductive and
iridescently twinkling eyelashes?

I don’t know what else could I have so wonderfully
fantasized for; without your fantastically vibrant and
timelessly sensuous stride?

I don’t know what else could I have so bountifully
felt for; without your compassionately divine and
spell bindingly blissful caress?


I don’t know what else could I have so unrelentingly
wished for; without your celestially fragrant and
supremely sacrosanct lips?


I don’t know what else could I have so intransigently
aspired for; without your philanthropically enchanting
and invincibly mellifluous essence of symbiotic
mankind?


I don’t know what else could I have so timelessly
yearned for; without your magnificently shimmering and
flamboyantly fiery inferno’s of passionate desire?

I don’t know what else could I have so unstoppably
leapt for; without your beautifully fluttering and
vivaciously mischievous shadow?

I don’t know what else could I have so uncontrollably
slavered for; without your everlastingly heavenly and
pristinely poignant; gorge of sweetness?

I don’t know what else could I have so endlessly
strived for; without your synergistically godly and
ebulliently extraordinary spirit of righteousness?

I don’t know what else could I have so fanatically
obsessed for; without your majestically handsome and
marvelously resplendent smiles?

I don’t know what else could I have so indomitably
hoped for; without your perennially ecstatic and
aristocratically opalescent artistry?

I don’t know what else could I have so boundlessly
prayed for; without your magnanimously humanitarian
and magically blessing ideals?

I don’t know what else could I have so fathomlessly
endured for; without your ubiquitously unlimited and
synergistically fructifying voice?

I don’t know what else could I have so ardently dreamt
for; without your enigmatically uncanny and princely
philandering demeanor?

I don’t know what else could I have so patriotically
blazed for; without your altruistically unflinching
and fearlessly impeccable conscience?

I don’t know what else could I have so effulgently
sung for; without your freshly embellished and newborn
bride; crimson cheeks?

I don’t know what else could I have so perpetually
loved for; without your charismatically incarcerating
and pricelessly infinite heartbeats?

I don’t know what else could I have so immortally
exhaled for; without your Omnipotently reviving and
optimistically enlightening; fireballs of breath?

And I really don’t know what else could I have so
unconquerably lived for; without your undefeatedly
godly and Omnisciently benign life? ? ?

»I really, truly and shall forever love you

 

And I liked the way you uninhibitedly chattered; caring an
infinitesimal
damn about the acrimoniously uncouth planet outside,

And I liked the way you sensuously ambled; tantalizing even the
dreariest
blade of grass of threadbarely barren soil; to the most unprecedented
limits,

And I liked the way you flirtatiously winked; inevitably inviting even
the
most lackadaisically vindictive skies; to torrentially rain till times
beyond infinite infinity,

And I liked the way you unflinchingly paraded; as if the every speck of
majestically virile earth; irrefutably belonged to you and solely you,

And I liked the way you ardently stared; perpetually feasting your eyes
on
even the most inconspicuously obsolete ingredient of the Lord’s
panoramically enamoring creation; all day and night,

And I liked the way you wholeheartedly laughed; wholesomely exhausting
even
the minutest trace of your miserably entrapped energy; towards the
aisles of
vivaciously dancing paradise,

And I liked the way you unconsciously snored; even as the tawdrily
corrupt
high society around; slept asphyxiating frozen under their frigidly
air-conditioned quilts,

And I liked the way you intrepidly galloped; fantastically discovering
profoundly blessing newness; the golden dewdrops of untainted fantasy
at
every step that you victoriously tread,

And I liked the way you fearlessly wrote; expressing your
philanthropically
benign thoughts with such candour; which was visible only in the
regally
steaming rays of the Midday Sun,

And I liked the way you inexhaustibly fought for anti terrorism;
exhaled
every breath of yours; solely to unite the ghoulishly estranged planet
once
again; into the threads of invincible brotherhood,

And I liked the way you tackled adversity; staring it right into its
pugnaciously imperiling eye; as if a newborn child Omnipotently stares
into
iridescently milky space,

And I liked the way you said goodbye when it mattered the most;
sacrificing
your umpteenth personal kin; for limitlessly serving your sacrosanct
mother
soil,

And I liked the way you earnestly prayed; not believing in any
spuriously
indiscriminating religion; but obeisantly bending down to the religion
of
humanity; even centuries after the last breath of your life,

And I liked the way you spiritedly danced; liberating unbelievable
spurts of
magically rejuvenating energy into the sullenly reproachful atmosphere;
igniting fireballs of passion even in the most lugubriously penalizing
of
night,

And I liked the way you nimbly surrendered; altruistically donating
each
priceless ingredient of your blessed existence; to save the life of
your
haplessly staggering compatriots,

And I liked the way you tirelessly preached; unequivocally advocating
the
sermons of amiably embracing camaraderie; even as every single organism
on
this earth cold-bloodedly laughed you out,
And I liked the way you undauntedly embraced all fraternity of life; as
if
there existed no diabolical power on this fathomless Universe; which
could
ever squander your impregnably harmonious grip,

And I liked the way you impeccably cavorted under the first rays of
dawn;
just as the mischievous infant bounced in the lap of its unconquerably
divine mother,

And I liked the way you sporadically angered; letting vent to the
fallibly
molecular human within you; which was as sensitive as the royally
emerald
globule of rain; of the very first monsoon,

And I liked the way you unshakably promised; as if the virtue of your
Samaritan commitment would forever shine; even as cadaverous mortuaries
of
hell blended with pragmatically spawning soil,

And I liked the way you miraculously breathed; as if the gallows of the
most
ghastliest of death; had been entirely transcended by the effulgently
effervescent whirlpools of life,

And I really loved you in whatever form; shape; color; fraternity;
continent; that the Omnipresent Creator had created you in; in whatever
stage of life that you met me; in whatever stage of death that your
soul
bonded with mine; O! Yes; irrespective of whatever yesterday; today or
tomorrow that I ever confront; I really; truly and shall forever love
you….

»I resided

 

I didn’t miss your majestic eyes the slightest; didn’t
even think an inconspicuous trifle about their
voluptuous charm,
I resided in their grandiloquent glory instead;
floating in their poignant passion since centuries
immemorial….

I didn’t miss your seductive lips the slightest;
didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle about their
passionately rubicund mellow,
I resided in their enigmatic smiles instead;
compassionately caressing their periphery every
unfurling minute of the day….

I didn’t miss your ravishing hair the slightest;
didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle about their
silken glory,
I resided in their trail of incomprehensible
fascination instead; blossoming into exuberant newness
as you swished them towards the flaming Sun…..

I didn’t miss your enchanting skin the slightest;
didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle about its
mesmerizing beauty,
I resided in its brilliantly ebullient streaks
instead; getting tickled like an innocuous fairy each
time you traced it with your nails….

I didn't miss your emphatic memory the slightest;
didn't even think an inconspicuous trifle about your
incredulously charismatic presence; which captivated
even the God's,
I resided in your island of exotic dreams instead;
invincibly conquering every barricade on this planet;
each time you tossed like a freshly married bride; on
the golden mattress....



I didn’t miss your mystical shadow the slightest;
didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle about its
profound shimmering,
I resided in its satiny movement instead; dreaming
beyond the ultimate paradise created by God; each time
you bounced under the resplendent blanket of stars…

I didn’t miss your robust complexioned palms the
slightest; didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle
about their magnetic touch,
I resided in their labyrinth of profusely enamoring
lines instead; unflinchingly propelling forward as
each chapter of your destiny; fabulously unleashed….

I didn’t miss your ingratiatingly benevolent voice the
slightest; didn’t even think an inconspicuous trifle
about its cadence which soared like an untamed
seductress towards the cocoon of blue clouds,
I resided in its oligarchic origin instead;
fulminating like a whirlwind of fresh emotions; each
instance you opened your divinely mouth….

I didn’t miss your philanthropically throbbing heart
the slightest; didn’t even think an inconspicuous
trifle about the melodious rhythm it intransigently
obeyed all day and night,
I resided in its unrelentingly poignant volley of
beats instead; basking in the cavern of immortal love;
for infinite more births of mine….

And I didn’t miss your stupendously fascinating life
the slightest; didn’t even think an inconspicuous
trifle about the valley of extraordinary adventure it
plunged into every unfurling moment; bestowed upon it
by the Almighty Lord,
I resided in its gloriously triumphant set of breaths;
traversing incessantly through the innermost corner of
your chest and soul; till the time you lived this
life; and took birth for countless more lives to come…

»I salute those

 

We have seen many conquer the astronomical summit of
the mountain; baring their chests against the mighty
winds,
But I salute those who have conquered their
conscience; followed its righteous voice to blend
themselves profusely with the Almighty….

We have seen many conquer the battlefield; win even
its most minuscule cranny with their tales of
stupendous valor and unflinching bravery,
But I salute those who have conquered the sacrosanct
virtue of peace; existing in celestial harmony with
the blessings of the creator….

We have seen many conquer the ferociously raging
fires; succeeding in quelling its flames with frantic
efforts of their adroit bodies,
But I salute those who have conquered pain; learn to
progress shoulder to shoulder with what destiny has
had to inevitably offer them….

We have seen many conquer gargantuan loads of wealth;
reach the unbelievable zenith; having their pockets
replete with glistening gold and silver,
But I salute those who have conquered desire; the
lecherous wave of dictatorial fanaticism; which ruins
countless innocent lives….

We have seen many conquer the stars; reach planets
beyond the earth in the most ingeniously designed
spacecrafts,
But I salute those who have conquered greed; breathe
in blissful buckets of air in the sparse area of mud
they were bestowed upon….

We have seen many scream their lungs; shout in
profound hysteria to make their voice heard even
beyond the satiny clouds,
But I salute those who have conquered their hearts;
poignantly executed the message of its beats; even
though it meant ultimate disaster in every arena of
survival….

We have seen many live without food and water for
days; accomplish incredulous feats; to register their
place forever in the all time book of records,
But I salute those who have conquered their
expectations; sacrifice their sole objects of worship;
entirely for their fellow compatriots who needed them
even the slightest…..

We have seen many lovers making promises galore;
romancing in the aisles of insatiably unrestricted
passion; even after the sun had arisen,
But I salute those who wholesomely relinquished the
tiniest longing of their lives; dedicate their lives
to make this world a better place to live….

And we have seen many sorrowfully accepting the
irrevocable atmosphere of death; sadly bidding adieu
to the heavenly pleasure of this Universe,
But I salute those who rejoiced at closing the chapter
of existence; emanated a divinely smile while laying
down their lives for their country; remained immortal
even after dying in the minds of each of their
countrymen wandering; and those still waiting to be
alive….

»I salute you

 

I salute you for your majestic speech; the
authoritative flurry of spell binding words which
emanated royally from your mouth,

I salute you for your impeccable stride; the
magnanimous poise in your stature that portrayed you
irrefutably as the greatest,

I salute you for your astoundingly mesmerizing sight;
your uncanny ability to decipher the most
inconspicuous of evil loitering ominously in the
crowd,

I salute you for your ravishingly rubicund complexion;
the ingratiating aura you generated on every piece of
soil you voluptuously caressed,

I salute you for your insurmountably stoical
passiveness; the unsurpassable equanimity with which
you confronted the deadliest of disaster without a
ruffle to your whiskers,

I salute you for your unflinching sense of
responsibility; the ghastliest of times you had borne;
just to see a smile lighten up on the face of your
compatriots,

I salute you for your astute acumen of dealing
dexterously with the uncouth world; marching
relentlessly on your path to undeniable success,

I salute you for your inexorably poignant eyes; the
heart rendering empathy you harbored within; for your
fellow beings in inexplicably horrendous distress,

I salute you for your incomprehensibly adjusting
temperament; the incredulous way in which you slept
even on bare brick walls; if the hour so commanded,

I salute you for your stupendously reinvigorating
aroma; the blissful waves of sheer ecstasy it spread
ubiquitously to every cranny of this planet,

I salute you for your streams of passionately
circulating crimson blood; the unfathomable ardor they
generated in lifeless souls wandering solitarily
around,

I salute you for the vivacious laughter that
entrenched your lips; the cloud of benign congeniality
it propagated in whomsoever it cast; even an ethereal
glimpse,

I salute you for your nose; which smelt only the
profoundly good from even amidst a dilapidated pile of
horrifically fetid garbage,

I salute you for your bohemian feet; which kept
traversing indefatigably to reach their ultimate goal;
even in the most acerbic of storm and murderous rain,

I salute you for your incredulously alluring charisma;
the mystically enigmatic look in your eyes which
attracted the most alien at your doorstep; even from
the most obsolete corner of the globe; like a trice of
a bullet,

I salute you for your resolutely undeterred
determination; the insatiable fervency in your
demeanor to stand only by what you felt was right,

I salute you for your tumultuously adventurous zeal;
the spirit of conquering the unknown profusely
embedded in your brain; placing you an eternal shade
above the rest,
I salute you for your tremendously transparent
conscience; the sacrosanct feeling of righteousness
which lingered around it for centuries immemorial,

And my wholehearted salutations to you O! beloved! !
for your ability to uninhibitedly love; your incessant
endeavor to make this planet of God once again a
paradise; blessing each molecule of his creation with
the greatest wealth you could ever posses; your
greatest virtue called 'The religion of mankind'………

»I simply didnt want to waste my today

 

I didn’t remember the color of the shirt I was wearing
yesterday; the exact number of buttons adorning its
daintily frilled frontal periphery,

I didn’t remember the roads which I frequented
yesterday; the routes which I had transgressed upon to
reach my destination in an absolute jiffy,

I didn’t remember the faces I had encountered
yesterday; the fascinating flurry of smiles which had
so gorgeously made my wretched day,

I didn’t remember the food I had eaten yesterday; the
stupendous delicacies which had voraciously tickled
intricate cavities in my mouth,

I didn’t remember the sleazy television serials I had
witnessed yesterday; the comic people on small screen
which had made me uninhibitedly laugh; conjured me to
transit into a satisfied slumber,

I didn’t remember the shops that I had passed
yesterday; the resplendent festoon of gaudy lights and
glow that had stolen fractions of my moistened breath
and air,

I didn’t remember the time when I dozed yesterday; the
number of hours I slept in loud snores and perennial
peace,

I didn’t remember the flavor of tea I had consumed
several times yesterday; the heavenly aroma that had
imparted loads of ravishing warmth to my fatigued
demeanor,
I didn’t remember the flowers which I had smelt
yesterday; feasting on the stupendous fragrance that
wafted uncontrollably from their robust body,

I didn’t remember the unprecedented cavalcade of
exotic dreams which I had conceived yesterday; the
ingratiating state of tingling excitement that they
had wholesomely rendered me in,

I didn’t remember the sounds which I had profoundly
heard yesterday; the supremely melodious tunes which
had taken complete control of my impoverished body and
soul,

I didn’t remember the countless verses I had embossed
yesterday; the spell binding tunes which I had
harnessed and composed with my very own thick blood,

I didn’t remember the birds who had perched on my
window yesterday; the boisterous chirps that had added
insurmountable exuberance and ardor to my solitary
life,

I didn’t remember the birthday celebrations of my wife
which had unveiled yesterday; the unfathomable pomp
and gaiety that had enveloped my dwelling from each
conceivable side as the evening tranquilly descended,

I didn’t remember the perfume which I had applied
yesterday; the alluring redolence that it had
wholesomely besieged me with at ethereal dawn,

I didn’t remember the names of the people who had
amicably come to meet me yesterday; the marathon hours
that I congenially conversed with the same to
enlighten my wave of gloomy boredom,

I didn’t remember the contemporary planes in which I
sat yesterday; the grandiloquently plush interiors;
the ornamental glass of ethnic silver in which I had
sipped opulently red wine,

I didn’t remember the signature I had executed
yesterday; the flamboyant strokes I had delectably
chiseled with my swanky pen on the face of the crisp
chequebook,

And I didn’t even remember the unsurpassable
adulation; the fleet of prestigious accolades; that I
had received yesterday; all the scintillating awards
and marvelous trophies that adorned my translucent
mantelpiece,

For if I remembered my yesterday; drowning myself in
the glorious past that had circumvented me
relentlessly in the past; then my fingers would
automatically refrain to work today,

And basking in the glory of yesterday; I simply didn’t
want to spoil my fabulously rosy today…

»I spoke Allah

 

I spoke a blatantly incorrigible “NO”; when the
unconventional society manipulatively cajoled me to
leave my poetry and do an obnoxiously mundane office
job instead,

I spoke a congenial “PLEASE”; when I wanted to be
wholesomely with my beloved; wanted to uninhibitedly
admire her and infact she wanted to mélange with the
glittering and star studded party,

I spoke a pathetically morose “SORRY”; when I had
committed a blunder at home; broken my neighbors glass
pane; with the obdurate cricket ball I was tossing
wildly in my hands,

I spoke an audaciously domineering ‘EXCUSE ME”; when I
was being irascibly poked in the cumbersomely long
queue; and each time I as I felt my number had finally
arrived at the ticket counter; somebody else barged in
forcibly; disrupting all my fun,

I spoke a compassionate “THANK YOU”; when the things I
insatiably desired; were delivered at lightening
speeds on my feathered doorstep,

I spoke an inevitable “YES”; when the girl of my
dreams; the divinely charisma of my perceptions;
invited me to embark on a shopping spree of the
contemporarily fabulous city,

I spoke a supremely cordial “HELLO”; when I met a
person for the first time in my life; didn’t know the
slightest as regards his uncanny persona,

I spoke an inadvertently embarrassing “IDIOT”; when
the imbecile donkey standing in the middle of the
street; intractably refused to budge an inch to the
side; no matter how stringently I blew the horn of my
monstrous automobile,

I spoke an overwhelmingly agitated “STOP”; when the
battalion of sordid mosquitoes hovering around my ear;
unrelentingly buzzed a flurry of pertinently
discordant tunes,

I spoke an ebulliently exhilarated “RUN”; when my
friend was just about to commence the race; the
bellicose pistol shots punctured still carpets of air
triggering its start,

I spoke a superlatively commanding “SLEEP”; to the
innocuously stubborn child; who kept playing with his
toy; even well past after wee hours of the midnight,

I spoke a mischievously flirtatious “HI”; at
witnessing a voluptuous damsel on the solitary
streets; that is after she winked at me with a
tantalizingly playful nod of her head,

I spoke a timidly submissive “PARDON ME”; when I
couldn’t catch the indispensable words which the
professor blurted; the very sentences which could
surely arrive in the next day’s deplorable exam paper,

I spoke a tumultuously volatile “I LOVE YOU”; when the
only girl I loved; the queen of my hearts seemed to be
drifting far away from me into a land of alien
paradise,

I spoke a thunderously loud “SHUT UP”; when a cheeky
intruder kept interrupting my conversation; disturbed
my astronomical bouts of concentration; when I was
blissfully communicating with my Omniscient Creator,
I spoke an infuriatingly abashing “RASCAL”; when the
men I had stationed to guard my mother from perilously
lurking evil; were found dreamily dozing in the peak
of brilliant afternoon; with a basket of peeled banana
skins loitered sloppily around their feet,

I spoke a tearfully dolorous “BYE’’; when my beloved
was going for a few days to her maternal home; and an
ocean of agony oozed out poignantly from my heart and
eye,

I spoke a convivially eloquent “BON APPETITE”; when I
sat with my friend fir nocturnal dinner; with an
appetizing fleet of sumptuous delicacies lying right
before me; sizzling ravishingly into my eyes,

I said an inexorably euphoric “ENJOY”; when I saw the
impetuously flamboyant youngster dancing rampantly on
the dance floor; swishing his body in nimble harmony
with the seductive moonlight,

I said an unprecedentedly formal “NICE TO MEET YOU”;
when my brief discourse with the Minister ended; and I
had manipulatively extracted from his mouth the exact
string of words I had actually dreamt of,

And I spoke a mystically Omnipotent “ALLAH”; every
morning as I jolted off from heavenly sleep; every
night as I bid farewell to the world for a short time;
and all those moments when I was confronted with
inexplicable quandaries in life; when life seemed to
be a gruesomely unfathomable turmoil…

»I still failed

 

To get out of the towering building; I used the golden
escalators; slipping down like a harmoniously dying
fountain,

To get out of the dingily dark well; I used a thick
rope as a tenacious pulley to hoist me from the
imprisoned ambience into tangy free air,

To get out of the flying aircraft; I used a buoyant
parachute to blissfully cascade down on the verdant
and perpetually green lawns,

To get out of diabolical prison; I used an ingeniously
intricate key to open the impregnably looming and
savagely gleaming doors,

To get out of the treacherous cave; I used the slim
ceiling outlet timidly visible like frugal specks of
dirt; from the place where I hopelessly crawled,

To get out of the miserably stranded shores; I used a
boat of overwhelmingly strong wood; and a swift pair
of maneuverable oars,

To get out of the blazing flames of blistering fire; I
used umpteenth pails of water to douse them in rapid
succession,

To get out of the labyrinth of enigmatic tunnels and
halls; I used the profoundly distinct chalk markings
embossed on the walls; the shimmering magnetic compass
which I held securely in my palms,

To get out of the commercially busy and boisterous
market; I used an ergonomically molded squashed
bicycle to escort me into free space at astounding
speeds,

To get out of the spell binding ocean of sedative
fantasy; I used a pail of abysmally freezing water to
splash on my wholesomely lost and dreamy face,

To get out of the baffling web of incredulous
complications; I used the idol of my Sacrosanct
Creator as the last and final respite,

To get out of the obnoxiously hurting pair of
claustrophobic shoes; I dexterously decoded the
onerous armory of black lace lingering from its body,

To get out of the perennial state of gloom hovering
incorrigibly around my body; I used pulsating music to
inundate my forlorn life with unprecedented ebullience
and cheer,

To get out of the repetitive chain of thoughts which
incessantly kept stabbing my mind like a million
volcano’s; I blurted a simple word called 'No'; banging
it vociferously into the atmosphere,

To get out of the intractably dark stains of dirt
adhering to my flawless skin; I used a stringent
carbolic to evaporate them into the land of worthless
nothingness,

To get out of the bottom of the deep ocean; save
myself from the tyranny of ruthless drowning; I used
my hands and legs prolifically to adroitly manipulate
my way; smile merrily and swim,

To get out of the bountifully blossoming scent of
passionate rose; I used my nostrils to optimum effect;
closing them intransigently with my fingers; to block
my nose to the most inconspicuous of fragrance,

To get out of this planet forever; I used a gleaming
knife to slit my throat; eternally end the chapter of
my baseless existence,

But no matter how hard I tried; implemented infinite
steps of veritable barbarism including the ones
mentioned above; I still failed to get her out of my
mind; and for each time I tried to forget her; her
image became a million times more embedded in the very
center of my mind; the very center of my life…

»I still had life

 

The present moment is the most exciting moment; full
of boisterous energy and excitement,

The present moment is the most rejuvenating moment;
with animated incidents unveiling right before your
blissful sight,

The present moment is the most exotic moment; with the
newness all around freshly unfurling for one to
wholesomely enjoy,

The present moment is the most young moment; with the
heart palpitating to its fullest capacity in the glory
of untamed passion,

The present moment is the most fabulously fantastic
moment; with the world in motion beside propelling you
to sweat in silver globules of liquid under the
sweltering Sun,

The present moment is the most relishing moment; with
the fruits of nature instantaneously falling in your
celestial lap,

The present moment is the most uncanny moment; with a
string of unexpected anecdotes inevitably unleashing
in your path to the top,

The present moment is the most divinely moment; with
the mind lost in realms of voluptuously surreal
fantasy,

The present moment is the most pragmatic moment; with
a compendium of sagacious decisions adding a supremely
new cheer to dolorous life,

The present moment is the most volatile moment; with
each action culminating into an ocean of bountiful
ramifications,

The present moment is the most vociferous moment; with
umpteenth number of sounds deluging the morbid
ambience from all sides,

The present moment is the most talented moment; with
blessed entities from all round the Universe using
their brains to profusely insurmountable capacity,

The present moment is the most active moment; with
tons of exhilarated breath descending down in
vivacious tandem,

The present moment is the most versatile moment; with
a myriad of actions being executed in a festoon of
mystical patterns all around the boundless cosmos,

The present moment is the most poignant moment; with a
varied conglomerate of compassionate emotions pouring
in different forms; in different streets,

The present moment is the most innocuous moment; when
you tread on the moist soil with nimble caress and
intricate grace,

The present moment is the most spell binding moment;
greeting you with an entire cloud of wonderfully
ravishing surprises,

The present moment is the most testing moment; which
gauges your skill to exist amongst a pack of hostile
wolves and philanthropically survive,

And for me the present moment is the most richest
moment; for although I didn’t have exorbitant dungeons
replete with gold and silver in my dwelling; I still
was breathing; I still had my Creator; I still had my
Mother; I still had my beloved; and more importantly
than anything; I STILL HAD PRECIOUS TRACES OF GOD
GIFTED LIFE….
