I ain't sugar, don't think I am sweet
I ain't the sun, don't think I got too much heat
I ain't the moon, to keep your nights lit
I ain't the air, to let you breathe
I ain't fire, to burn your heart
I ain't water, to cool you down
I ain't a joker, to keep you away from the frown
I ain't a river, to let you flow
But I am me...
a bit of fire
a bit of water
a bit of earth
a bit of sky
a bit of mountain
a bit of air
a bit of sun
a bit of time
a bit of sadness
a bit of fun
a bit of sparkle
a bit of glare
a bit of heart
a bit of dirt
a bit of strength
a bit of weakness
a bit of distance
a bit of caress
a bit of space
a bit of nothing
a bit of everything
but
I ain't sugar, don't think I am sweet
I ain't the sun, don't think I got too much heat
Iam sugar..because Iam sweet..
ReplyDeletebut never the less..bahut hi shaandar kavita hai!!

ReplyDeleteand you ain't a bit of all this but a lot of each one....
dirt !!..lol...apartment saf karne ke time sochna..kitna bit hai :))
hmm.. nice one. One does not have to be sugar to be sweet.. since sugar causes diabetes anyways.
ReplyDeleteI like the tone of this piece... it sounds as a disclaimer at first , then it takes a lil more mellow tone and you tend to start sympathizing with the writer and then it goes back to the disclaimer tone
good job ! ;)
I liked the bit of 'What You Are'
ReplyDeleteAnd how a bit of all of the above makes us unique and different from others.. :)
Making life and people around us nice, happy and optimistic.
Good luck, keep adding more to your basket of 'A BIT'
Wah wah!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet poem!
This reminds me of a very old song that goes something like this, "I am what I am, I am my own special creation....I am what I am..."
Enjoying Mom and Dad's company!
