After-thoughts

Ready or not...the end will surely and suddenly stare at you in the face.
Ready or not..one day that rocking chair will roll back and forth, empty
Ready or not, your babies will fly the nest very soon
Ready or not, maybe sooner than you know..
you will need two outstretched hands to hold you straight...

and that very day, perhaps you will know and realize that your life was actually so blessed with tiny bits of gems that you failed to notice...

you mother's concerned calls,
your child's face burrowed in your bosom, as if you are her world,
your father's eyes waiting eagerly for the time when you will enter that door and share a few minutes of silence with him.
the cacophony of your friends as you try to concentrate on a romantic number
or for that matter, your love's increasing demands on your time, even when you keep rejecting her, to just be with you..

trust me...it will all end much sooner than you ever thought...it will end in one swipe...and you will be left wishing and wishing....only if you could go back and mend things...and regretting each lost moment.
