THE ROCKING CHAIR

THE ROCKING CHAIR

Looking at this shining chair
I recall memory of dad's care 
who often visited to grandpa's
when he got a time little spare.

Once finding to dear dad spare
followed him village visited rare
I found grandpa tall and very fair
a grand personality of time there.

rock in like this nice glorious chair
rocking back n forth with little care
he might not face the future's dare
in deep thinking of Grandma welfare.

After a span of glorious fifty five years
neither Grand-Pa nor Grandma is there
but that archaic chair is still lying there
rocking back and forth with a little care.

An interesting idea appeared in my mind
to sit in that glorious chair lying in porch
how lovely it would be to gaze at flowers 
by rocking in the chair gently back & forth.

Sitting in the chair I went on in a swing
rowing deep in the sea of new thoughts 
a heavenly feeling with an additional wing
in my thoughts appeared as become string.

Joy and sorrow are the two partners of life
coming one after another in our running life
the treasure accumulated or physical world
nothing will remain permanently in your life.

So, do something good to society you live in
do something fruitful that remain after your life
each one of us will depart with the call of time
so before the life come to an end we should do 
something good to take a turn to the right in life.
