“The littlest feet make the biggest footprint in our hearts”
As a parent, we always wonder what babies are feeling or thinking at a given moment.Have you ever wondered what a baby feels when he sees an anxious parent around all the time?
A little poem from the baby’s perspective.
Sometimes I wonder
Why is he around so much
Anxious and scared all the time
Why he doesn’t try things
Which seems easy and fine.
Why he is bogged down and bothered by every step I take
Why he keeps running after me
Whenever I try to get away
Why he always try to make me laugh
As I’m bored all the way
Why can’t he seem to sit still
And enjoy the life away
Oh, he thinks he can save me from everything
When he can barely keep his thoughts fleeting
When his own heart is not in control
How can he stop me from wishing
Oh I think I know now
They always feel as a protector
He thinks he knows how
My parents, my caretaker.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.
