Path taken

Anny Princy 1998 (Andaman and Nicobar Islands)



When we stepped into the beach.
It defined our childhood days
Parents and teachers were always ready to teach!!!
That how life is big maze!!!

When I saw water meeting with sand
It reminded me of how I jumped with pants
While playing in park...
Life seems good here with no work!!
Just loaded with homework..

As I walked further sand started to disappear
This reminded of me being part of tenth
 Getting ready to face all my fears
I was all set!!!
To overcome my tears....

Then i saw a path going toward woods
It reminded me life ticking twelve,
Without any hoods
Then i reached my way half,
I saw two paths,
One was long and other was short
These path defines the choices we take
The decision we make

We chose to take the long one,
As she was walking with me
Then the real life begun ,
We were as busy as bee,

 Path was tough,
Like we were going without any stuff
We were set with one goal..
To reach the top...
We walking like two souls
Sometimes while walking we hop
There were many up and downs
We heard many sounds
These sounds reminded me of the people
Creating distractions!!!
ME"THIS IS HOW LIFE'S JOURNEY IS"

After sometimes we became stable..
Filling ourselves with more patience..
 I saw the big  lighthouse
My mind was saying it's time to teach
To your childrens their in beach!!!
After so much of chaos!!
Finally  standing on our destination..
Deleting all our frustration...
It reminded me of the old age
Till then our lives pages
Will be finished
The only thing we can do is to cherish !!!!
Now it's time to go back
With our Yaadon ka sack!!!
