Seize the Day
Seize the day
This Diwali night is the Festival of Lights,
A spark lend to dull and monotonous lives,
Living without friends is as if in a desert,
Souls chasing mirage, getting badly hurt,
Dr. Sonia created a group on whatsapp,
Eleven of us invited to join the app,
Sand dunes as if vanished in air,
How quick did we regain our flair,
Old days flash in memories afresh,
Precious moments getting subtly dressed,
Heart beats drummed, showered gold,
Emotional outburst is ready to unfold,
Murmurs in rhythm are ready to dance,
Joys abound attained in a stance,
Seize the day today, it's a worldly meet,
Never to part, future longing to greet !
