A trio from my dad.

OPEN DOORS

I went looking for Him
at every other door
And there He was
waiting patiently
holding my own door open
for me to return

MANIFESTED GLIMPSE

Wherever I rest my tired feet
is a spot of pilgrimage
Whatever my restless hands create
is an idol
Is this how it feels when a mere glimpse
lasts an age

GRACE

As I stand
watching gentle sea waves
And in the distance
clouds hug the horizon in tight embrace
It’s time to say Grace

Wow! I don’t think I have another adjective for this! Your father is exceptionally good K! Now we know where your writing genes come from 😉
I especially like Open Doors and Grace… The mere idea of Open Doors and the depth in it is amazing… It still haunts me (for the first time I remember each word I’ve read and it has created an image in my head I can never forget)! And Grace… Ah beautifully written… The usage of words to describe the clouds embracing the horizon… Sheer genius 🙂
One of the first posts I have read today and I can’t stop smiling at my decision to read posts instead of the newspaper 🙂

Hey Kunal, I can only echo other readers’ comments. Each one has a message of me and perhaps Open doors most of all. Thank you! 💜

These trio are a blessing to read, Kunal. They make me have a smiling sigh. ❤

Specially these lines:
"clouds hug the horizon in tight embrace
It’s time to say Grace".

Great. 🙂

Each crafted so well, simple words yet profound thoughts. I’m going to be uber old-school and vote for Grace as my favourite. 🙂
