Down the memory lane....

 Down the memory lane....

 

 Its time, now, to reflect and recollect,

Those days, I passed, as an innocent young,

When simple things, spread shine and smile,

Then, even serious things, never did matter.

The lillies, lotuses and the many fishes beneath,

The ripples made, when I  swam, in the pond,

The tamarind trees  that lined the roads,

The paddy field, ripe in their golden glory,

The nightly sky, where the stars twinkled,

The darkness that brought fear and chill,

The rains that brought showers and shivers,

The frogs chorus, beetles hum and the eerie silence,

The thunder storms that made me tremble,

The love and care, sheltered ,in my mother's lap,

The twilight in which sparrows sang,

The sun that glittered on the morning dew,

The fresh breeze , the gentle sway of leaves,

The tales, that made me cry, sing, scream and sob,

The wonder years of one's childhood.

Ahh..it's time to remember and to cherish....
