With my dear Nativity play  team..Lucky to be part of this...We made it

At the Tea shop

As the eve settled down,

We went our way as routine.

The weary walk

Made us long for tea.

We entered  a shop

To have  tea.

 My mother and I together sat,

And the hot tea

Came to quench our thirst

My mind moved away

Far from the tea shop.

I could observe

The dire glance of a trimmed black.

The view made me realize

I was gripped by wear.

My mother sure  that

I was pained by it.

Finished the tea in a gulp

And we set out.

The world has changed

And the women are secure.

Yet are followed by

Dreadful eyes.

In a while, I was provoked and

Decided to be cautious forever.

She

Concealing emotions,

She walked away

From the stage for a reason

Her words were like gems

As she uttered each word

She created symphonies

Stories of the past

Heard and told.

Who really knew her?

Was she* one of my heroines

I dreamt of?
