      Time Stops for No One

Relentless is the march of time*
It flits on and on without respite,
For none does it stop for a while
Like earth rolling on at its will;

Incessant is the flow of time
Like a river rippling to sea
And does not stop for a second
Nor waits for the night or the day;

Pitiless is the flight of time
It waits for no person, no rank
It respects no caste, creed or race
It rolls on for all at same pace;

Merciless is the sway of time
It slides on till eternity
Mighty monarchs and simple folks
All bow before its ruthless shrine;

Heartless is the swing of the clock:
Every tick of time nears us to the night,
Turns our hair greyer day by day
And brings us closer to the grave.

Once a youth in his mid twenties
Seeking higher studies abroad
Received an urgent wire message:
“Mother is ill, wants to see you.”

The youth booked the earliest flight,
Praying that he would reach in time
With his mother to speak some words
And accomplish her last wishes;

Alas, time would not hear his plea,
When with all haste he attained home
He was struck with sad sorrow:
His mother had heaved her last breath.

As time does fly on its swift wings,
Let us grab it with our both hands
And make the most of sacred life
While our sturdy strength still does stand.
