In my words... (journey of life)

by Sai Vara Prasad Potharaju   Feb 26, 2008


The journey of life starts from a cradle,
In which everyone has to paddle..

The journey starts as a sweet little boy,
Who plays with a toy..

The boy goes to the kindergarten,
Which is like a burden..

He passes through different phases of life,
Which are like the edge of a knife..

Such phases are
From a sweet little boy to a teenager,
New thoughts enter with a vigor..

The bodily changes makes him fearful,
Sometimes tearful..

With no one to answer his queries in teenage,
He enters adultage..

In this age he tries to earn
His bread n butter,
So that his life could be better..

Soon there will be a marriage,
and dreams shatterred in a carriage

After that his life becomes a daily serial soap,
In which there is no hope..

After sometime he becomes old,
Sometimes he could be sold..

This is the life of a common man,
Which is like a rotating fan..

The journey which started
With such a fanfare,
Ends in a grave.
