POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
One has to use his life span responsibly, because there are others depending.A reckless life-style when young is a sure recipe for disaster, as towards the end of the innings there are unfinished tasks which are nightmarish.One has to chose what one wants out of one's life.Haiku has format 5/7/5 syllables in lines 1,2,3. Rhyming is not essential, but I have tried to rhyme -for better readability. There are 4 Haikus in this poem.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

A life lived recklessly will have its own nemesis....! What one sows, one reaps! All of us have a moral responsibility to make the best of our life on Earth! The earlier we learn it, the better will be the outcome! Thoughts of great sagacity!
