An ode to a Beautiful Woman!

She spread a smile everywhere she went,
And touched the life of everyone she met;

Her heart was a bottomless valley of love,
Of kindness and affection, she was a treasure trove;

She led by example, and with grit,
Made a difference with everything she did;

She never shared her pain, nor her troubles,
She fought her darkest battle, without a grumble;

And today she's here no more, but her memory lives on;
She has left us in person but will never really be gone.

Amen

Some people are in our life for a seemingly short while. But they land up teaching us some of life's greatest lessons.

Sometimes we begin to realise that people who are taken away from us too soon, are probably taken away because God loves them too!

There are people.....and then...there are PEOPLE!

This poem is dedicated to 'someone' who once told me a line, probably in a different context -a line that has since stayed with me forever........the line is the title of this poem and this post!

There are people.....and then....there are PEOPLE!

They come into our life like warm sun rays,
They change our life in unexpected ways;
They bring a gleam of magic, a fragrance that stays,
Light up our life and brighten up our days!

Some come early, some come late,
Some change us, some themselves change;
Some stay forever, a part of life innate,
Some detach mid-way, but timeless memories create!

Every thought of them brings a smile to the face,
The knowledge of their being, brings comfort and solace;
Their care and understanding serve as a mainstay,
Of a precious relationship, that may or may not have a name!


Truly, some people are special beyond compare,
They are one in a million, unique and rare;
Some are for a moment, some are for a life,
But each one of us has our bunch, making life worthwhile!

Till next time, from slo, it's tally-ho :)
