River Flows

River flows, where does it go?       Time passes - we don’t even know.                          Childhood fun,                       days are young..                      Youth exciting,                             life daring                River flows, where does it go?             final destination .. meet the ocean?         Time flies...doesn’t tell us why.            Time falls.. tiny grains of sand                  Through our fingers,           When we know, hands are empty                the moment has past,                 Doesn’t wait for anyone.  Unprecedented time - wild things happening,                     not so good things …                This is going to be history,                   Our lives have changed…          A very different time has emerged!

Time passes and many things slip from our hands. We do not know what all we have lost, until we open our closed fist to find it empty ! A powerful reminder of what awaits, Malabika !
