Whys Of Life I Know, Not How Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

In gone past, nor in one to come,
Get attuned with the passing breeze,
Try your present moment to freeze,
Live in present time's sole kingdom.

Yet, I've some past moments to savour,
To re-live wistful memories,
And there does waft a tempting flavour
O of my dreams and reveries.

I know, I know, in now's life's wow,
Present's the time I must revere,
And yet mind's mind and it aught waver,
To its follies man has to bow.

Fine, living in present time's now,
There's no why, but there still hangs how.
