Unearthing Life 6

The youth in me tries to be always happy
and spread the same happiness.
But to tell the truth,
 as the hair turn grey one by one,
one starts thinking about too many things ,
 thinks about getting more number of things right .
The tight, cautious approach deters many things,
It closes our eyes , our ears , nostrils .
One gets really surprised to know that , but
None can avoid the inevitable .

The 'River' called life flows that way,
That is the way we roll.

I wish there was a time in our life when we could "rewind", re-live a moment, one singular moment of our life. We could only re-live it though, we couldn't change it. Can you imagine the effect it would have on the rest of our life?

Good to read you again, Anand!

[Anand Sehgal]

That is indeed the way we roll, Anand, but as we get older still, the tide turns once again and we fret less about "getting it right" and work more to do right. A good poem to ponder.

[Anand Sehgal]

Well done sir. Looking your piece after so long. I'd like you to correct the word hairs. Hair itself refer to its plural form. Rest all's spread well. Thanks for sharing. :)

But dreams change as you grow....I guess the key here is to look within and discover who you are and what you really want .....and never to get swept by the tide that the world wants us to follow.
Happy New Year!

[Anand Sehgal]

Happy new year Mara :) how are you doing ? :)

[Rachelle]

So - so... It's too cold here. I wish I was back home in Manila.

[DIVYA]

The river flows too swiftly and gathers speed as it advances, giving us too little time to realize all our dreams. A beautiful expression on life, Anand. The poem was much appreciated.

[Anand Sehgal]

Thanks so very much Divya :) Wish you a prosperous new year :)

Some things cannot come between what nature intended, the course often sets itself.
