A Thought Process On Time - Ii Poem by Ramesh T A

TIME IS NOT ENOUGH - II

Time goes as fast as lightning for those who perform
Jobs interesting to them without expecting anything!
Time moves as slow as snail for those who perform
Jobs uninteresting to them out of sheer necessity!
Time is not enough for some to enjoy life rarely
To get satisfaction even when the opportunity comes!
Time puts an end to life ironically for some
Whether one completes one’s mission or not!
So, completing assignments of life then and there only
One can willingly say good bye to time when death comes!

One has to work, enjoy and rest to be peaceful in life
Not before or after appropriate time in this world;
Even if monsoon seasons come before or after time
It won’t be helpful but only harmful to mankind.
Even Nature which is time bound in all its programmes
Also fails sometimes to be favourable to the world;
But generally helpful to all living beings on the Earth
Nature too wreaks havoc sometimes to balance itself!

Everything changes according to time in Nature
But nothing remains to be the same forever here.
Milk is not milk forever but becomes butter-milk,
Butter, curd and ghee too as time passes on here!
Leafy vegetables helpful to health for consuming
At one time are harmful to health at another time!
Wet grinder which becomes hot when it is working
Becomes cold again when it becomes dry at rest!
Whether hot or cold, the material is the same in
Nature, but its effect changes from time to time!
So, “make hay while the Sun shines” is the best way
Man has to play his part well in this Nature world
Because fire, time and tide never wait for anyone
Whether time is enough or not here for anyone!

By scientific revolution freshness of a thing in
Nature can’t be prolonged for enjoyment ever;
For, natural fructification of the whole is possible
Only by evolution but not by scientific revolution!

For everything there is entrance test because there is
Too much rush for everything due to dense population!
Even in the cinema theatre one has to be present there
Before time to buy ticket so as to avoid disappointment!
Even to consult a doctor for a disease, that too only at
The appointed time, one has to get a token before time!
Also, before time one goes to the Railway Station to buy
Ticket, there is too much rush and time is not enough!

Though time is there, competition is also there due to
Too much population and success also depends on luck!
So, just time is not enough, but time of good luck also
Is necessary for one to be successful in the world life!
