Be Around ‘now'. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Be Around ‘now'.

Rating: 5.0


The past and the future
Can be marked in time frame.
The present is the ‘now',
Which overlaps the both.

The now can be a year,
A month, a day or an hour.
Even a minute or second
Can have past and future.

Mind is always engaged
To think of past and future.
Memories of the past haunt;
Hopes of future worry.

Memory is a fantasy;
Dream is a luxury.
Focus on what is now.
Derive what you can from it.

Nature gets equilibrium
With all forces around
In a given time, with changes
To warrant any time.

Work while you work
And love while you love
Pigeonhole the past.
Concentrate on ‘now'
