Life : 4th Quarter

Your son knows

for you are

at end

of the

Third Quarter

And he is in his second

he knows

&

stays put

you know

why he is there

besides you

&

your wife

He is there

for he knows

you have to

get hands dirty

to be in your position

your wife

for she still loves you

she knows

why you did it all

Then you realize

the real realization happens

you dint need to get dirty

you dint need to earn that much

you dint need to succeed

you were always loved

by people whom you love

of whom you cared

&

then

guilt sets in

then starts philanthropy

then you understand

why one should give

give more

than take

its in the last Quarter

the last bits of your

life

&

for the first time

in your life

you are not

Lost

you dont feel

betrayal

but trusted

but finally

arrived

fulfilled

you retire

play with your

Grandchildren

Get back to life

the way

it should have been

the way you were born

having fun

all the way

the last January

your childhood,

but its December

you are old

&

sooner

than

latter

your year is going

to end

it will be time to go

you know i

you thank god

for it

the life you have had

what one need's

is

what one already has

in your own backyard

&

the forth Quarter

is over

One life has been

Lived

&

One life has

Ended

But Life in itself

has continued

people around

that life

still live on their's

giving rise to new

&

the great saga

continues

As we pass

the Quarters

we see things happening

as they used to

with us

the way we lived them

to our neighbors

to our teachers

to our parents

we see

our children do

so the saying goes

"The more things

change,

the more they

remain same"

Still we let them

happen

for its not in our hands

we are helpless

blinded by success

for its their life

&

it's them

who have to make it

the journey

is of their choice

as it continues.............
