    About this ebook

    In the Authors debut poetry collection Hummings of the Heart the words come to you as though its just a conversation between folks. Its like shes talking about Life. Yes, Life, with the innocence of Childhood, the purity of the Nature, the Relations that beautify lives, the aspects of the Society, along with some toppings of her own reflections and experiences.

    Her poems are organic, alive, part of an atmosphere we all live within, but seldom take the time to discuss and dissect. Her words are for us and of us, becoming at once a celebration of the breathing body. The authors soul is present in all of the poems in this electric collection. She uses language to gift the tale and share the fabric of verse through sound.

    Here, the dedication is to the Reader: the one being given the package containing the rhymes; the one getting a swift pat on the shoulder; the one who would place himself and associate with the feelings and experiences, the authors heart opens up pulsing and pushing her message into the readers ear.

      Hummings of the Heart - Reshma Wable

      [1] HUMMINGS OF THE HEART

      Every moment a hum I hear

      Emerging from my hearts core crystal clear

      Like bees do day and night

      With rising sun and falling tides

      These hummings of heart are my living potion

      Giving my life a purpose and motion

      I rescue my dreams by listening to these hums

      No matter how tough is the walk but happy is the outcome

      Wishes and desires stretch infinite

      Like the brightening suns light

      The hummings of heart never rest in time

      The way sun backs the moon during night

      I follow my heart and listen to each feeling of gut

      Even if to all I look naive or nut

      Because these are the hummings of my heart

      Emerging from its core asking me to play my part

      CHILDHOOD

      Childhood.jpg

      PAINTING BY – RESHMA WABLE

      [2] NOSTALGIA

      The fountain of happiness

      And the castles of sand

      I find them around

      Hidden in my childhood land

      The fairy tale dresses

      And the wizardly wand

      Resides in memories chamber

      Quietly in my childhood land

      The Cinderella Charles story

      And the kings island

      Embellishes the memory

      And holds me back in my prince’s land

      The pile of story books and tales

      Nostalgic yearnings make me yell

      As if wave of sentiments grow huge

      And freezes like ice cube

      The innocent loud laughs and shouts

      No matter which place, solace or between crowd

      Naïve and beautiful memories it painted

      As if life’s vast canvas was being imprinted

      Those handmade cards for parents, teachers and pals

      Vibrant and lively like a rainbow displayed on skies wall

      Simple yet strong foundation for future was made

      In the land of life, beneath the planetary shade

      The winning, losing games on the ground

      Run on tracks and fields, was there to surround

      The parade of guides and scouts on D-day

      Echoes back smiling and brighten today, to live and pray

      [3] TREASURES OF TIME: CHILDHOOD

      In this time zone moving with its speed

      I wish I could go back and again be a kid

      Where stress of elders faded with innocent laughs

      And everyone pampered us increasing our smiles graph

      Chocolates were the best ever gift in the world

      Playing on the ground was true fun in the herd

      Sharing a pencil, eraser or colors were a good deed

      It was giving our treasure to the ones we loved indeed

      School bag was more than any bank balance

      Every morning readying for school was the biggest challenge

      Homework seemed bigger than any NASA project

      Getting good remarks were proudest moments

      Boasting was limited to owning a cycle or toys

      Jealousy meant not being the best friend of birthday girl or
