Yearnings
Yearnings
As a little girl
I set out to explore my little world
In books, in gardens
At home creating blunders
Yearning to discover some wonders
As I grew up as an adolescent
Became conscious of my appearance
Gazing in the mirror
The timid and dusky figure
When I turned sweet sixteen
The awkwardness disappeared, I smiled with a beam
I blushed
I shied
I don't know
Why I cried
As I grew older
Stepped into the twenties
So many abstract questions, in my mind, took entries
My mind flooded with so many riddles
Unknowingly I began to fiddle
As I stepped into Youth
With a strong and healthy booth
Learning to endure life's encounters
Facing bravely worldly banters
I don't know when Youth melted
Where has my Yearnings
Resulted
The Wisdom I acquired with age
Had begun to give me solace
When I looked at my horizon
At my beautiful setting Sun.
The reflection of My Life Yearnings
In mind were nothing but all along with Learnings.
Now I am a frail booth
like a child, no Youth
No Learning,
No YEARNING
