"A QUIET POEM FINDS ME", a poem by Mukkala Pallavi, B.A HEP II YEAR.

In a busy world, I searched for something to find,

So I chose a pen and paper, leaving my phone behind.

Today I wished to speak,not through a screen so bright,

But to whisper to the paper,My feelings soft and light.

I once heard "paper has patience",

It listens to every story we choose.

So, I began to write...Then paused,

Not knowing how to start,or what to say.

In my quite Room,with the door closed tight,

I sat by the window, watching the light.

Outside,some students beneath a tree,

Were writing their work so peacefully.

The birds were gossiping,in gentle tone.

And I realised then,in that silent view,

Everyone had something meaningful to do.

But 'I',held my pen,still searching for peace,

Wondering when this restless thought would cease.

Then softly,a quiet poem found its way---

Not asking who I am,or what I say.

It spoke in feelings, 

with every line,it shows 

That,"peace begins when kindness grows".

And just as my heart began to feel light,

Time reminded me of duties to write.

So I closed my page with a gentle sigh---

Leaving my poem... unfinished,yet alive.
