Sprinkle Some Spices In Life! Poem by Geetha Jayakumar

Sprinkle Some Spices In Life!

Rating: 5.0


A glassful of water
Colorless and tasteless
Nothing can quench our thirst but only water.
Boiled and added some tea leaves
Gives a taste of black tea
Again make it more spicy by adding
Ginger and cardamom
This works like medicine for cold, flu too
Again make it spicier by adding milk
Further more with sugar.
Each time you add one one spices
Its taste keep on changing
And each spice taste different
And tangy.
Keep on relishing each taste
Before moving ahead.
Enjoy which ever way you prefer.

Marriage is based on trust
Followed by love and care.
In mid of life when you find charm is lost.
Just sprinkle some spices
Not altogether.
Else dishes will be spoiled by spices itself.
Sprinkle spices slowly one by one
And see how wonders it does.

Keep a day only for yourself
Be ready with some surprises
Just see how wonder it does
Inviting third ones into your life is very easy
Just to make your life messy in future.
Some times there is no U turn.
And even if taken
everything may not be fine like before.
The others have also heart like you.
And put yourself in others place too.
This trust if broken
May be mended but the deep scar will always remain.
Never forget that.
This itself will take away all the spice of your life too.

Enjoy your life by adding spices to it!
Before its too late....

There is importance of water as nectar of life. Without water we can never live. A glassful of water is very colorless and tasteless. Nothing can quench our thirst but only water can. This is very truly felt. Everything may not be fine like before. We may feel time as surprise. Enjoy your life by adding spices of wisdom to it is nice ever. An excellent poem is nicely penned.10
