Tomorrow could be your day




I must do a lot before dusk
dusk- fast approaching me like
a baby seeing its mother at a distance 
laughing and jumping to please .                             4

I know not where I stand
perhaps no one can tell
Each man is mortal on a particular day
living hope against hope.                                        8

Hope,it brings me alive and awake
prevents me to think about the dusk
perhaps my duties,my service-
all are in vain.Death sets us in peace                      12

I can feel the full sun above the trees
yet I can hear the everlasting twitter
may I sit for a while?But where is the time
let me engage in my duties ;for it's not dawn          16

Dawn ,the most fascinating scene
the time I sang full throat
tasted everything as if it was the first time
but nothing remains Oh! My childhood..                20

Am I too far or too close to twilight
the unanswered question-even to a scientist
the much confusing question to a hermit
but beware! Each day reduces the distance!           24

Somewhere a coffin is ready for me
so let me play my role,my duties,my hopes
today itself for there is no tomorrow
Tomorrow ,beware! it could be your day !            28
