Unpredictable and unfair, at times
A tad bit disappointing too
Also giving hope at times
Life is Beautiful
Every moment brings a new experience
Connecting a dots few
Every day opens a new chapter
Fresh like the morning dew
Excitement and anxiety
A mixed parcel of both
Happiness and gloomy days
A mixed baggage of it all
The moment you’ve lived
Would just pass by
Leaving a sweet or sour memory
Upon your fate is that
Plenty of lessons
It provides from the past
However there are no promises
For a tomorrow, none at all
Luck, chance, risk
Different names we give
It’s just our future life
In a simple way to say it
All the fuss and drama
We create daily
Can’t it all be avoided?
Yes, if we lived with simplicity
Only if we had the courage
To be ourselves
Just be the real us
And not care to impress
Speak our mind openly
And share ideas few
Not be scared to make fools of ourselves
And to openly express thoughts new
Why do we have to pretend so much?
That too in front of others
All the time wear a mask
Can’t we forget diplomacy and just be us
Relations are simple
But we insist on complicating them
Either they are truly yours
Or just some pretence
We’ve made a race in everything
Competing all our lives
Stretching our needs every time
Can’t we learn to be satisfied?
In finding happiness
Big and in abundance
The small little joys
We miss
We just need to look
Around us
To realize
How beautiful life really is.
–Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Anjani M Nautiyal
It’s very good poem by Anjani Nautiyal. In Life we run after so many things which we presume will give us happiness and miss the beatiful things around us, ready to shower happiness,every moment. Though dipolomacy, manners and pleasant behaviour is of utmost importance, it will have a grace if it comes from within. Then you won’t have to wear masks and you will be a natural leader in all walks of life!
Somebody has rightly said “You can not be unfaithful to anyone, if you are true to yourself!
Keep it up Anjani!
