Childhood - this poem is a nostalgic reflection on the raw wonder of childhood, where nature spoke louder than people, and silence taught more than words. Through water crystals, tiger stares, and dancing grass, it explores the deep wisdom children carry untouched by judgment, yet rich with truth. 🌿✨🕊
For every dreamer, misfit, and quiet soul, this one's for you.

Childhood

- Poem

Mahisha Desai

“When I became a mother, I was handed more than a child — I was handed a storm.”

A piece from my heart — for every mother who has ever sat quietly in the dark, wondering if she’s the only one carrying so much.

You're not alone. The storm within you is real. And your strength, even in silence, is extraordinary. 🌧️💛

My Space :
A Truthful Lie & A Lied Truth

A truthful lie—was when you asked,“How are you?”and I smiled,with all the strength I had left.“I’m fine,” I replied.It wasn’t truth,but it wasn’t quite a lie either.It was a survival sentence—a way…

My Space :
“Wow, A Peacock!” (But Do You See Me?)

They call me royal—a dance of colors in the rain,a walking painting on feathered feet,the envy of every eyethat stops to stare.They say I am beauty.They say I am grace.They say I was born to be adm…
