Come Let's Nurture Joyous Moments

Come let's nurture joyous moments,
Stretch them till eternity,
Harp on the faintest smiles,
Laugh on the palest humour,

Let's trap the faintest rays
Of good cheer and sunshine,
Silvery rays of waning moon,
Receding waves of low tides,

Let's rejoice at smallest events,
Small trophies of life's successes,
Soft strains of the cuckoo's songs,
Sweet smell of the summer rainfalls,

Let's hold on to pain and strife,
As sand held in our strong hands,
Slipping away in small trickles,
Blowing off with lightest winds,

Life the sweetest nectar of Gods,
Mortally precious no replay rewind,
No second chance to relive the past,
Oh! come let us dance and unwind.........
