It’s all about balance

and not falling over.

From birth to the grave

in a line, we must walk.

 

It’s all about trusting

and not calling others.

From when thoughts

into words, we must talk.

 

 

 

 

When asked what she was thinking

about, she would always reply ‘nothing’.

But it was apparent that this ‘nothing’ had

taken over her heart and mind.

For the more she thought about ‘nothing’

it seemed the truth she was hiding behind,

and that someone, lost in her past, she

constantly thought about and pined.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Very few would recognise themselves

if they saw how others see them.

 

Very few would smile approvingly

if they knew how others view them.

The first one is always special,

and the closest to the heart.

Our very own set of wheels-

Be it a tricycle or a cart.

 

It sets us on the path to freedom,

a time from birth, that seems the aim.

To explore what’s around the corner,

is our in-built human game.

He fills his mind with a million things

and follows each job through to the

smallest detail. Being both pernickety

and a perfectionist, he still lives in a

regimented world of orderliness, otherwise

his mind would drift back to the past-

and that wouldn’t do!

 

 

 

 

If I’d only known when I was with you,

how much I’d miss you when you were gone.

I’d have much more enjoyed our quality time,

and this burden wouldn’t have weighed a ton.

 

 

 

 

 

 

No bragging rights now

No influence or push

No power to the elbow

No adrenaline rush.

 

 

 

 

 

If you’re a lucky person

and win a fortune you will find,

that if you tell, you’ll have the world

at your door, all neatly lined.

 

 

 

 

Soldier on the front line

So young and brave is he.

With a fearless vulnerability

Please god, bring him home to me.

 

 

 

There comes a time

to set aside boyish dreams,

and take on a princess

to share your schemes.

 

There comes a time

and that time is now,

so from adolescence

take a bow.
