Decay Going On
Decay Going On
Baby borns as lovely budding flower
bringing charm and happiness to parents
Raised up with much love and care in shower.
Ambition, Expectation inherent.
Present turns Past not to trap Current.
Not aware, inevitable decay starts.
Sudden realisation only hurts.
Not to permit remedy or delay.
Just to surrender with defeated heart.
Old age is bound to face senile decay.
