Poems
Won’t you be by my side?
A walk in silence
A hush in turbulence
Won’t you be by my side?
A tear in the fire
A staunch desire
Won’t you be by my side?
A splash in the rain
A gash full of pain
Won’t you be by my side?
A smile across the twin eyes
A cry onto the blue skies
Won’t you be by my side?
In the pages of days and nights
In the cantos of rise and fall
Won’t you be by my side?
Tell me, Tell me, Tell me O Dear Mother
Won’t you be by my side?
by Shikha
Wonderful. Amma will always walk with you
Usshh …, AMMA is the very breath of Her children.
AMMA, jeevande jeevam, kanninde kannu …
Wherefrom the doubt then arise, “Mother, Won’t you be by my side?”
