Little Moments of Life
How little things
Matters in life
You will recall
When life becomes
Full of many a strife
When you are lonely
And silence prevails
Then only
The moments of joys
Long forgotten
Get unveiled
Slowly
The old memories
Get revealed
Time spent
With children and friends for ever
With wife, beloved and lover
Little moments
Make life great
The moments of gratitude
And unyielding attitude
You remember
Your follies
Smile on some
Regret on other
On reaching altitude
And gaining aptitude
Little moments of life
Seem more important
Than all achievements
After travelling through plains
And valleys
Of the field of struggle
Life is full of battles
Some with values
Great and little
The moments long spent
Get surfaced like ripples
On the floor of ocean
The ocean of our lives
So deep and profound
Unexplored as it's abound
Little moments of life
Have more importance
Than years of existence
{This was written when thought over what makes life so enjoyable and how we skip them for no reasons but to reach the destination which is nowhere on this mundane Earth.}
