When the rose can yield perfume to the hands <br />That crumple it badly or throw it on the land <br />And the rainbow can appear after each rain <br />To narrow the path of sufferings and pain <br /> <br />Then why can't we share our troubles pile <br />And wipe it off with a bright smile <br />And fill life's road with the cool breeze of love <br />That feels like a guft of heaven above <br /> <br />Thousands of questions that are like it <br />That really hold value in them every bit <br />Just keep on popping in my mind <br />Answers to which are really different in kind <br /> <br />And then for hours and hours I think <br />Why its so and what is the link <br />That every phase taht starts in life <br />Swiftly ceases and its end soon arrive <br /> <br />And then I wish I can stop world's ride <br />Storm in the sea its waves and tides <br />And ask dear Lord to always keep away <br />Any glimpse of trouble or sorrow that sway <br /> <br />From all who are sincere, loving and nice <br />Who do good things without thinking twice <br />And who know how in their own style <br />To give others the gift of laughter and smile <br /> <br />And then I pray and ask dear Lord <br />To always help us because he's the God <br />And always keep us safe in his hand <br />Till we lie burried deep int he land.<br /><br />Seema Chowdhury<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-wish-180/
