Life, a journey, a saga, and all the fuss Of spotlight hogger's and the anonymous Masters and puppets, tortoises and rabbits People driven by wants and habits Sweet thorns and dangerous flowers The agonizingly slow seconds and fast paced hours Unbelievable adventurous path Few taking the walk, living it Others spending time doing all the math Some will's some wont's Arguing the do's and don’ts Shying away when times call All but speculating rise and fall To say nothing exists without its opposite Good and bad, traditional or fad Have you taken a dip in tranquil pool? Are you sane enough to call others mad? Destiny, fate, chance or choice Listening or ignoring the inner voice Careless whispers, raves and rants The hidden agendas, a knowing glance A friend’s betrayal, a foe's dance Crayons, tree houses, kite flying and puddles Reminiscing blissful past, entangled in present hurdles Amazing paradoxes, shifting paradigms of thoughts, Parallel truths and the lucrative lies bought While most will forever be solving All the how's, what's and when's The ebb and flow of life will go on With all its odds and even's A path, a dance, an eternal hum or song Will you be lost in the past or There in the moments, in the chimes of life Contented when the death rings its final Gong
