Live In The Present Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Always forget to live in the present,
Thinking of the past and the future since young,
Forgotten breasts and the milk bottle,
As the toddler, searching for those,
Below the blouse and shelves,
after become the child and able to speak,
When start to go to school in the school bus,
Not leaving the memories in the baby cot,
The young adolescents may be very quick,
A few too early to play the games of father and mother,
Futuristic in nature and invited all troubles of the old,
Surrounded by the friends they hold the string of happiness,
Graduated, employed, married and settled,
The bonds those created in the school and college days,
Are intact, the memories are skipped playing truants,
Bunch of kids and bunches of worries and responsibilities,
Worrying of the future, old age and diseases,
Who had made us all as this to suffer, not living in the present,
Though the present carries a lot of presents and gifts,
Many of us are the proven symbols, miscalculating otherwise.
those who live in the present and calculate accurately,
they are the most successful and free of worries and troubles.
