Down The Memory Lane

Morsel of childhood innocence

Lurked in brooding woods and Stony tracks..

Soaked in flowing creeks and muddy ponds..

Battered in bleeding wounds and haunting taunts..

With eyes searching in vain for home.

Morsel of adolescent autonomy

Bloomed in boarding schools and bunk beds..

United in singing choirs and study hours..

Immersed in bonding friends and endless conversations..

With feet stepping in vain for path.

Morsel of youthful identity

Explored in learning challenges and meeting expectations..

Engrossed in dreaming and modelling careers..

Endured with growing confusions and hovering hopes..

With brains struggling in vain for fame.

Morsel of adulthood intimacy

Lost in loving gestures and fake promises..

Brewing with scary storms and sad demises..

Guided by good virtues and imbibing kindness..

With heart wandering in vain for justice.

Morsel of old age wisdom

Growing with greying strands and denting vigour..

Reflecting life’s failures and dozing despairs..

Taking away inner ignorance and illusions..

With soul waiting in vain for integrity.
