I am an Octo–Vengrai

Posted on Author Vengrai ParthasarathyPosted in UncategorizedLeave a Reply

I am an Octo
Born in Oct ‘26
An Octogenerian
In the cusp of life,
Across Ups and downs
And level ground
Life, a bowl of cherries
Sometimes bitter
Plus and Minus
Sweet and Sour
Packed and ready
but
Yama eludes me
My last days,
Feel like the fifth wheel
Life goes on
Across Ups and Downs,
Gestures of Love, apathy
Some day, some day
Some day, you will see
That I am gone too
When, when the end?
God knows
And He won’t tell me.
