So he is mine.

Make the eye laugh when it is about to cry,
Give a bit of your heart and not a piece of your mind,
Share happiness with your laughter and not drown in sorrow
Lighten other's heart with your smile,
Be a candle in their darkness,
Share all the love you have in You.

For your family,
Enjoy the beautiful moments with them,
For the work we do can never be finished.
Your children will grow up and lead their own life,
Even your dear ones may no longer be with you.

Be good at heart,
Then at appearance.
Strangers will look at appearance,
Closed ones will look at the heart,
But strangers too will become colleagues or dear ones.

On our first date,
I took her to a romantic place,
We kissed and she smirked.
Every time she looked at me,
she giggled,
When she left I realized my zipper was open.

When he put his lips on mine
and kissed me,
Gently at first, then fervently,
I felt the world was really aligned,
And as his kisses deepened,
I felt I understood the mysteries of the universe,
And anything called miracles can happen.
I had fallen in LOVE.

The stars winked ,
The moon gave a cheeky smile,
When the shy young couple kissed for the first time.

You say I am your first love,
You promise never to forget me,
I have doubts ,
How come you have forgotten your parents.
Weren't you the one who would not leave her side for a moment,
Crying your heart out even if she was in the bathroom,
Weren't you the one who followed her everywhere,
Holding onto her skirt,
Weren't you the one who wanted your dad to take you for long drives as soon as he came home,
They gave in to most of your demands ,
That was their love for you,
Now you have left them when they need you most,
Not a single visit or call.
We are still neighbours,
They ask about you whenever I visit mum.

Is like eating your favourite chocolate all by yourself,
First bite ahhh....
Another bite-scrumptious,
Another,
Another,
Can't get enough,
Till all gone,
Nothing left,
Just a taste in the mouth.

When I first I saw you,
I truly understood,
Why people crave to see the sunset,
My heart was a blaze of colours,
With silver stars twinkling in my eyes.

Sunshine of joy oozed from my heart,
And the stars seemed to waltz around goosebumps on my skin.

Eat fish,

Brain makes money,
Money buys fish.

Fix
Your mind,
And you will heal your heart.

It's not the heart that needs to be fixed
It's the mind
That stores pieces of memories that still hurt and make you cry.

Death does not have a fixed date with you,
So don't wait to grow old.
1/2/2019.
Salmabanu Hatim Nov 2017
You want someone to fix your life,
Forget it, take some advice,
You have to fix it yourself,
Move your ownself,
Or it will rot on a shelf.
Be your own boss,
Earn your own money with no loss,
Have your own powers,
Don't be obligated or intimidated by others.
Don't turn to be validated by any one,
All these will happen,  
People will learn to respect you,
Your dear ones will be proud of you.
I was at such a stage when I thought life was unfair to me.Then I fought back and I have everything I deserve.

A boy named Jamal was coming to see my cousin Yasmin and ask for her hand in marriage,
My cousin was already in love with someone else,
But, she could not refuse her father.
So on the day Jamal came Yasmin was all dressed and ready,
She happily served tea,
Yasmin then invited Jamal out for a walk,
On the way out she wore her flip flops,
As she walked the flip flops gave out a noise like a ****,
Disgusted Jamal cut the walk and left abruptly.

Spring is in the air
floral prints are in fashion
souls of meadows smile
On ma's hair,
Dad's going to come home early,
And in good mood
We will get money to see a movie.

Behold!
Flowers,nuggets of gold,
Graceful,
Fragile, beautiful,
His creation,
With love and affection.
Tenderly, petal by petal they open,
In spring and Autumn,
Diamonds,glistening in the Sun.
Each different in size,shape and colour,
Rare, exotic delicate flowers
Bursting forth in showers,
Caressed by sweet fragrance,
Intoxicating perfumes,its essence.
Thirsty for their nectars,
Bees and hummingbirds,
Swarm and flock in numbers.
A  new birth,
Nature in mirth.
Salmabanu Hatim Nov 2020
Flowers have been my companions through the journey of life,
When I was born the hospital room was filled with flowers,
And on my christening,
My birthdays,
My engagement,
My wedding
My anniversaries,
And when I die my grave will be covered with flowers.
