LIFE IS NOT A BROADWAY REHEARSAL
Life is not like a Broadway rehearsal
Everything is final with nothing to cancel
One cannot stop and begin at beck and call
Like going round and stopping a carousel
Everything is recorded in life’s one reel
Nothing to edit cut or seal
Every action comes as a part and parcel
Till the sound of the final bell
Life rolls on one way on time’s rolling wheels
Down through the valleys up the sloping steep hills
Opening new moments of future covered in veils
Having no recourse to change the event success or fail
Everything comes once cheerful or tearful
Living through the moment playful or careful
Is all one has for memory to recall
So live the life’s moments to full
