Analysis of Live in the moment

Shaila 1978 (Dhaka)



Live in the moment
The time ticks away,
Keeping the memories sway.
Mixing all the element,
To live in the moment.

What is today?
Will be past history.
What is to come tomorrow?
It remains mystery.

Live in the present,
Fulfill the dream.
Create a heaven on earth,
U are supreme.

Shaila.
