The journey of life begun

The journey of life begun

That fateful day I was born

My eyes opened up blissfully to the sun

My soul, heart and brain emerged as one

Behold my journey had begun!

This little child in time has grown

Yes! Time has flown, time has flown

A lot has been learnt on my very own

Life has been a mystifying journey

With every up and down

With tears and laughter

With hate and love

With stupidity and wisdom

With enemies and friends

But even in my journey of frustrationI

have found a means of celebrationIn

my toilsome exploration to my fateful destination

Tick tock, the clock goes on

Minute by minute, then hourly

Month by month then yearly

Tick tock, and in my journey

I have searched, questioned and answered

Whilst walking painfully along many paths

Sometimes requesting protection

Seeking from above immunization

When hit by obstacles in locations

But I am still on this journey

Shaking hands with the sad and merry

My passion for life which was once rawIs

now confined within the Almighty’s law

For life's journey itself never ends

Once you have reached the end of each road

Uplifting off your entire cloggy load

Be it in a hot summer or a winter’s cold

Behold! A new journey will unfold
