In the vibrant glow of pink daffodils and the warmth of the first rain, discover how presence and love intertwine in ‘The Presence is You.’ A poem celebrating eternal connection and romance.
In the glare of little sunshine,
In blossoms of pink daffodils,
With buckets of happiness,
Presence is you.
It’s you
in the first rain to the fists,
In the closed eyes of the nights.
It’s you – Seeking a heart,
to console, and to burn it.
It’s you
in the slump of dreams,
In the wonders of rains,
With the brand of stare.
In the rivers of romance
dissolved is you.
It’s you,
for an ever, to a forever,
and never to be never,
Presence is you.
It’s you for a forever,
It’s always YOU.

Let’s Walk through the Words :
Hey friends,
Ever had one of those moments where everything feels like it’s crumbling around you, but instead of panicking, you suddenly spot this weird, magical beauty in the chaos? That’s kind of what inspired “It’s You.”
I mean, here I am, watching life swirl and tumble, and what do I see? Pink daffodils blooming like they’re throwing a party in the middle of a storm! It’s like life’s way of saying, “Yeah, things might be falling apart, but check out this little burst of sunshine!” Funny, right?
Sometimes, I look back and think, “Why didn’t I notice this sooner?” I was too busy stressing about the little stuff—those “fists” of daily grind. And guess what? I missed out on soaking up the simple joys, like a fresh rain or a warm stare. It’s like life was waving a flag saying, “Look at me!” while I was busy worrying about everything that didn’t really matter.
So, this poem is my way of saying, “Hey, don’t wait until you’re knee-deep in regrets to appreciate the magic.” Embrace the daffodils, enjoy the rain, and remember that the presence of someone special can turn even the gloomiest day into something worth cherishing.
Life’s too short to miss out on these moments of pure, unfiltered joy. Don’t be like me—caught up in the whirlwind without seeing the little wonders. Take it all in, laugh a little, and always remember to notice the daffodils.
Catch you in the magic, Gautam
