Vulnerable
I am delighted to bring you a selection of poems written by the talented poet Amita Sarjit Ahluwalia. Thank you Amita for your fabulous contribution.
Here is the first poem, entitled Vulnerable. More next week.
Vulnerable
We are all fragile creatures
Try to be kind when you can
That’s one of the distinguishing features
That makes Man, Man
I was nurtured by butterfly touches
I was sheltered under doves’ wings
I have sat by clean rabbit hutches
And learnt to face all things
Soft things are tough and resilient
The hard and rigid ones break
It’s best to be gentle and patient
In the future if you have a stake
