Pendulum Of Life.... Poem by Vipin Devaraj

When i was a kid,
every one called me a kiddie,
but i never ever wanted to be kiddie,
but a big, long, strong,
handsome gentle man..

When i became a gentle man,
every one called me,
hey you ''gentleman''
i always wanted to be like this,

But as the pendulum swings,
and the clock ticks life away,
i became an old shaky, useless,
senior citizen or else as they say,
an archeological specimen,
then every called me hey you''grand pa''

But i never, never, ever,
waned to be like this
i miss my chidhood days,

My childhood days,
which will never come back,
as the waves of an ocean
which come and go,
as the pendulum of life swings,
life away in pale moon light..

Oh..my old days......
