Two Poems by Deepti Shakya

What Will Tomorrow Bring

In life's uncertain journey, we know nothing about the next moment,

So we can never predict what's going to happen tomorrow.

Don't worry unnecessarily about the future, have hope and be ardent,

Make sincere efforts with positive perspectives, try to forget the sorrow.

What will tomorrow bring, it's just a mystery,

Time always changes, one day problems will also end.

In life's game, sometimes we lose but sometimes we get victory,

God has plans for everyone, so trust his process, my friend.

We should not focus on what will happen tomorrow,

It may bring a dawn of surprises or a night of troubles.

Always remember that heavy rain is what causes a rainbow,

Live in the present, life is a tapestry of struggles.

Overthinking about tomorrow can lead to anxiety and depression,

Life is all about moving forward in every situation.

A Tale of Parenthood 

A melody of existence whispers in the air

In the delivery room, a new life blossoms

A moment full of joy, so surreal and awesome

A journey begins with immense love and care.

An intense longing to see the newborn's face

Tears of happiness flowing amidst excitement

An eternal bliss of becoming a blessed parent

A precious miraculous feeling of tender embrace.

A most beautiful gift sent from the universe

A unique bond that connects hearts deeply

A child's cry and laughter create a symphony

Lullabies weave golden and delightful verses.

A sweet tale of parenthood beyond description 

Emerges as a blessing with fervor and elation!
