I found out that
Writing was
My calling!

Since then
I wanted to
Keep on
Writing!

Did I know
Where it would
Take me
Then?

Only that
I wanted to
Keep on
Writing!

Now see
What I am
Doing,

I have begun
To write
To so many,

On
I am My Path,

And I
Like to,
Keep on
Writing.

So,
I have
Found out
That,

Once
You become
A writer

You Like to
Keep on
Writing!

~Deepa Nilamani~

As I move on
Leaving
My past
Behind

Letting go
Of
Life’s changing
Roles.

Those who
Cannot
Understand

What
Life is
All about!

Nor unable
To accept
Me as
Who I am!

I move on
To the
Future!

Along the
Path
Of
Freedom

To be
The person
I was born
For!

~Deepa Nilamani~

I know that
I am being
Guided along!

For the
Purpose
I was born!

Sometimes
I hear you
Sometimes
I don’t!

When
I don’t hear you
I start
Wondering!

I know
You do not
Speak in
Words as such!

But that
Messages come
From
All around!

I know
There is
A time for
Everything!

But
Sometimes when
The right time is
Missed!

Things can
Go amiss
In a way
We never thought!

Then the
Question arises
What the
Real meanings are!

Because
The detour was
Never mentioned
In the plan!

Or,
Did the detour
Come to safeguard
The plan?

You are silent!

Is it
Very far
To go?

How do I
Find the
Answers as such!

What
To do next
And when
Is it
Going to be?

~Deepa Nilamani~

In life
Lessons come by
From
The beginning
To the end!

For us
To learn
Overcome
Challenges,

Change and
Move on!

Lessons
Of
Life for us
To learn,

All
That is included
In the
Journey called life!

~Deepa Nilamani~

I started writing
Very small verses
Didn’t think
I would go
Very far!

In to the
Wee hours
In the night
I kept on writing
Until
I was
Half asleep!

Now I find
To my surprise
Two hundred souls
Has liked
My page!

Thank You All
I am most grateful
All of you have
Made me
Happy as can be!
