Analysis of Things to Ponder on………



Wind is gushing through the window
Change is inevitable now.

Light is peeping from the roof ventilator
Darkness is searching the corner.

Sound of chattering birds soothing the ears
Faith whispers, “I am back again”.

This nature is trying to interact with our soul
And we are busy with worries.

Small things around us carry enough happiness
Yet we crush them for want of bigger ones.

We have point to ponder on and that is how we want to live.
Whether, to accrue small happiness and enjoy or to run for the bigger ones.

I have learned a bitter lesson now let your better sense prevails.

Don't wait, jump on the smaller one now.
