Address To Young Man

Hold it now, its passing by, Silently, calmly even by fly, Catch it now, and apprehend, Time is money so fend, To lead a life full of terror, Victimization and horror, Even by hardship day and night, That endeavor mends you right, Catch a buzz if you worry, With best chums and no hurry, With a company until you content, And listen a song life for rent, Grab the beauty of the surrounding, Loaf here and there with no bounding, Watch the sky and stars, Beyond this sight are mars, Enjoy each moment and span, With empty pockets and naïve man, Coz Life begins when you start dreaming, And die when you quit aiming, To dine in five star ain’t a big deal, The aim is to fill it with meal, And tum is unaware of what you eat, And unaware of your feat, A cup of tea can alleviate you, If friends are alive with you, With gabfest and chit chat, Late night sitting on the mat, So catch and grab your time, Erase your worries and crime, Bring forth a new stem and root, O’ your being from head to boot.
