about life in a poetic sense..... |
I have walked for miles Down this long winding road Looking back, over my shoulder Watching the years go I realize , Something special I have grown Grown in many ways Of that unknown Change has been inevitable Just like the passage of each day And as I look ahead In the darkness I stand and anticipate Many more cross roads, slopes and twists That may be brought By my dear Fate And this leads me to take in My one and only source A silver gleaming ray of hope Shown from up above Just like the moonlight Seeping amidst the dark clouds On a pitch black night And as I place each step I watch The winding road unfold And I realize Being Calculative and Cautious Is not the easiest job In the world Time tries me Experience guides me My guru , My Master And with each tiny step Reality sets in That I have begun a new chapter And as I move on I paint enveloping landscapes In colors and shades of my moods On life’s canvas In different stages I smear ragging dark seas In my anger Paint dazzling rays of sunshine That makes me Bubble with laughter In love I bloom daffodils Far beyond the horizon I sometimes Sketch grey clouds To express melancholic reaction I may even stroke A beautiful waterfall And claim serenity and peace But I know Every picture I paint Of my life Is that what I choose and please And that is what makes The long winding road So thrilling and adventurous But I have taken note Lessons may be many So don’t count your stumbles Every time you trip on a snag Get up , brush yourself And don’t let your confidence crumble There might be A lot of U turns ,wrong turns And all sorts of other disasters But in the end It is where we are And not how we got there That matters And when I think Is there an end to this long winding road I realize What I think might be the end Might be a key to a beginning To which I hold . |
