#4 Recalling those moments

Recalling those Moments

When I reflect upon my past

Which were those moments,

That would make me rapt?

Will I get nostalgic or emotional

For those moment’s transient pass?

I always enjoyed amidst the turbulences

Because I looked out for that secret silence

That often peeped into the noise.

The companion was myself

And of course my friend’s silliness.

Hunger for knowledge has always

Been my mind’s treat,

This seemed most attractive

This has led me to walk on a path

Without predicting its end.

There were some moments

Those made me cry.

For now those have turned into sweet pies

Cause the effects were unforgettable.

Can’t wash away those moments,

Quite large in numbers

Whose slight recollection always

Bring happiness over my tears.

Present is a past of future.

The moments, yet to be enjoyed

Will soon fade into past

Due to the flow of time

I’m trying to lock or  trap

Some of the present moments

That will very soon get transformed

Into the past to be recalled.

What about those moments

To come across in future?

Hoping to embrace and invite those

With zeal but not with fear.
