Poem: Happy Birthday, Priya

Happy Birthday, Priya Patel. A small poem is all can write. Of course, that little art I did on Canva. Can. Could.

Poem: Happy Birthday, Priya

It snowed today
The in-between week
The Lord is with us — the faith
The new year will come — the hope
And you are born, in between — the love
A sequence of natural healing
The snow’s white shines through
Pure and Perfect
Designed to make everything right.

To those who know you
To those who you know
Even the Christmas red
is born from your bleeding pen
Even salty tears taste sweet
A master of heart-speak
Melancholy turns to magic.

Silence doesn’t mean separation.
We are right back together
My dawn to your dusk
My sun meets your stars
On-time to celebrate your birthday
Happy Birthday, Priya.
