An Ordinary Girl

I am only an ordinary girl,
Want to look at the mountains with my pillow and curl.
"She will become an exemplary one,
Educated and settled with husband-daughter-son."
Alas, I am rolling with only my education!

I am only an ordinary girl,
Then why my mind is in a constant whirl.
I am scared by the darkness of my thoughts,
And baffled by the shine I find in naughts.
Can't I just be mundane and be one with the lot,
Ones who are by many sought?

I am only an ordinary girl,
Taking in life's abundant twirl.
Collecting little sunshines on the run,
To find light when gloom covers the sun
And add sparkles to my world for fun.

I am only an ordinary girl,
Discovering that I am no less than a pearl.
Patience,gratitude,kindness and love
Blessed to have these showered from above.
I am not perfect,that I know.
Am breathing in life steady and slow.
Stoking that fire within to glow,
For putting up an extraordinary show!

I am only an ordinary girl,
Spiritual but not by ritual.
Almighty,keep me steady,hold me tight,
Forgive my sins and bless my flight.
Take me to heights keeping the ground in sight.
Thank you for the extra in the ordinary light!
