Yearnings
English Poetry |
Slipping away from my fingers inept,
Why is your speed,time, so break neck?
Stop, stay still for some time,
I still have loads to actualize.
Let me grasp the blooms fragrant
And enjoy their heavenly scent,
Let me play some more with children
Feel their smiles and thus enchant.
Let me plant some more flowers
And see them form lovely bowers,
Let me sing some songs Divine
That make my heart and soul shine,
Let me ride high on a swing
With laughter loud tinkling,
Let me be forever young
Let not age dampen my song.
And when my time has finally run out,
Let the exit not prolong,
In a jiffy let breath whoosh out
Like a last prayer from this mortal’s mouth!
very nice poem
time will never stay still but we can make the most of every second
@Parespeare, Time flies and so do desires, on imaginary horses:)

@medhini, Thank you !
And when my time has finally run out,
Let the exit not prolong,
In a jiffy let breath whoosh out
Like a last prayer from this mortal’s mouth!
