Seems slowing down is the need of the hour
Soul has no respite, the spirit is going sour
Running after the success, working like zombies
As if you would miss out on life’s big trophies
How long have you worked for Grammys or Oscars
King size ambitions will make you a greedy monster
Take a pause, let not miss on life’s simple pleasures
Where is the hurry? Despite you’ve limited hours
A gentle kiss, a smile, a peck on the cheek,
A warm tight hug, an encouraging tweak,
Watching the most beautiful sunset, hand in hand,
The sound of waves, tall palm trees, shining sand
The aroma of steamed rice, freshly baked bread
Love, laughter in the air, sharing food with a friend
How will you not appreciate these tiny delights?
Only if you stop living for the glittering noisy nights.
Let these tiny joys fill your life with bliss and gratitude
A great life is nothing but noticing the divine magnitude
