Time Poem by Arti Chopra

Time has a habit of just flying
Just yesterday, we were
So young and carefree
Today we are so close to dying

Time has a habit of flying..

Just yesterday we were children
Laughing and playing
Without a care in the world
Slowly we grew up
Saw life in its many colours
Harsh realities also unfurled

Life began to teach us many lessons
Time and again
From some we had loss
From others we got gain
Some bought us happiness
Some bought us pain
We learnt not to do
the same mistakes yet again

We learnt to carry on
Learnt the value of love
We saw wondrous happenings
Sent by God from above
Each moment we relived
Was magical and divine
But sadness interspersed
The intervals of time
Yet we carried on to realise
That a great healer is time
Lifes great journey
Is marked with rhythm and rhyme

Time has a habit of flying...

Lose not a moment
What you have, appreciate
Nothing is ours, nothing we made
Everything is HIS Grace
Let our ego, abate
What we got are His blessings
Be grounded, don't berate
Don't waste your precious time
By complaining and crying

Time has a habit of flying......

Soon it will be time
When we will be a memory
To our kin
So leave behind love,
Embrace good karma, not sin
Enjoy each day of this life
Smiling, not sighing


Because time has a way of just flying.....
