Poetry Collection #12 -List Poems

1. Residents of My Fridge

Do you know I have a humongous fridge?
It has,

oranges all juicy and round,
apples for sure tasty with no brown,
there are yesterday’s eggs unscrambled.
and some leftover chips crumbled.
cucumbers with a fresh green,
and tomatoes all fresh and clean.
sour lemons with some sweet lime,
and potatoes to give me energy for a while.
some minced garlic and ginger,
there is also some cut-up lady finger.
I see some ice -berg lettuce, my favourite,
and zucchini. I’m sure you would love to savour it,
and apples, apples, apples,                                                                                                                                                                          are those apples, Kashmiri?

I’ll go enjoy some of the food
but ill complete the list next time for you

2. Don’t Wanna Grow Up

These years,
They passed by so quick’
I wish I could just hold on to every second, every moment, every breath;

Don’t remember when a three turned into a thirteen,
don’t remember how tiny steps turned into big leaps,
don’t remember when story telling turned into gossip,
don’t remember when lipstick stains on the cheek turned into rushed goodbyes,
Don’t remember when family time turned into separate hours on screen,
and when I grew up from your womb to end up in the next room;

These years went fast,
wish I could live every moment again to the last,
time is moving by, just wanna hold on tight;

3. My Mood Every Week

I remember being glad and delighted on Monday,

Cheerful and thrilled on Tuesday,

Elated and ecstatic on Wednesday,

Excited and loved on Thursday,

Pumped up with a glass of upbeat on Friday,

Yet the days of my holiday, I was only upset and bored all day.
