LITTLE THINGS | LIFE POEMS

I walked through a road

Saw someone quite old

a fruit seller, 

Full of wrinkles, 

Whose eyes, Tell the tales

Of all his life's phase

Locked my gaze

With his

My heart skipped a beat

shifted my gaze

Smiling at my toe nails, 

Silently Praying in my heart 

For a dart of ease, 

for him. 

There, I felt the whole world 

Centered around me. 

As if, its laughing 

At silly me. 

Sobbing at her father's shoulder,

A child,

Caught my attention 

I felt amused,

Smiled at her, 

Tear filled

Her eyes, got wider

She got Restless

and

Shook her head

at me

Felt like ripple of softness 

Gathered around an emotion

Which I can't 

comprehend, 

It felt feather light

And joyous, 

Made that part of my day

Easiest. 

Heard a man singing 

And humming, 

In middle of the night. 

As if, 

He was coming from somewhere, 

That calmed his mind

Gave him delight, 

in the time he got alone. 

Me being at home, 

Opened my window's drapes, 

To see 

Who was he? 

Ended up enjoying the lyrics, 

And laughing, 

At his self created melody. 

He got his share of joy

And I got mine.

 People share

Moments and minutes, 

In a single paradigm 

Without knowing. 

Meanwhile 

River of Time 

Keeps flowing.
