THE 'PRESENT'! Far from memory are infant days Gurgling, giggling and rattling plays Snuggled up in a warm crib Adorned fancy laced bibs Oblivious of the world around
Distinctly recall my childhood glory Waited eagerly for the bed time story I ran and fell...played in the sun No worries...not a care, just sheer fun World seemed to be a perfect place
Then came perplexing adolescence Still in the world of naiveté innocence
Always confused and in a daze
Adulthood with its solemn reprimand Dealing responsibility with a steady hand Sometimes seemed an alien land
Harshest of weather, it taught me to
withstand
Often I wonder what's the best Wish all those times were back But, each stage has its own test So, let us live each one to its best For today is indeed the 'present'
We got to learn from our past For, nothing would forever last Let us see the brighter things And discover all the joys they bring Then, each day would be a spring.
