Crossroads Of Life Poem by Renu Kakkar

At a crossroad of my life i today stand
Thinking what do i have today in my hand?
Turning back is not possible you said,
Much water has flown since we last met.

Going forward at same pace in the current direction,
i am warned of hidden perils in every situation.
Turning to the left or the right of the current path,
From the dear loved one i will most certainly depart.

Decisions in life we always make in haste,
Then have the hindsight of time going waste.
Not realizing that it was a lesson to be learnt,
Moving on with knowledge not to again get burnt.

We are Spiritual being living a human existence,
Learning is a part and parcel of ascendance.
Let me not lament for things mundane,
Next lesson to learn i am ready to face again.
