If only we could hold time….
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was:’Good Morning Message #200‘.
Good morning Friends,
It appears to be running down faster in old age,
The grains of sand in our life’s hourglass;
At one stage when we were in our teenage,
It didn’t look like it’d come to this impasse.
Wasted hours were as important then as now,
But we thought these won’t matter somehow.
How nice it’d be if we could go through life,
With the wisdom of today and energy of the past;
We could have avoided all the unwanted strife,
And could have loads of satisfaction in contrast.
Wasted hours were as important then as now,
But we thought these won’t matter somehow.
Wisdom doesn’t have to visit us when we are old,
We can call it our friend even when we are young;
But most of us don’t like ourselves to be controlled,
And remain in our youth reckless and highly strung.
Wasted hours were as important then as now,
But we thought these won’t matter somehow.
Wisdom lies in not relearning those things,
That have been passed on by those before;
The wasp of wasted time actually stings,
When there is not much time left in store.
Wasted hours were as important then as now,
But we thought these won’t matter somehow.
….but we can’t and must learn to make use of it.
