(by a close person)

Restless you, always eager to learn,

You defy norms without much concern.

Talkative you, sometimes just eyes speak a ton,

Humble you follow your heart,

And cares for your loved ones.

Free-spirited you, laugh with childlike enthusiasm,

Showing rational bearing in moments of dissension.

Your individuality, I wonder, why does it have so many dimensions?



(by a stranger)

Staring at the sky,

Her eyes hold inexpressible verve


Those brown eyes followed,

A bird's fluttering feathers


The awe on nature's skill,

On her petite face, ebbed and flowed


Like a sparkle of the fireflies,

The wisdom in her eyes glowed


Lighthouse she was,

For the sullen faces there,

Slowly, stared at her and smiled


Her presence, the lighthouse,

The light itself, her beaming eyes.
