The Journey Continues

Kaushal Kishore

Today this year will also pass,
like previous years,
tomorrow will again see a new year,
like every new year,
the years keep coming and going,
like dusk and dawn,
every year we add some age,
like pleated wrinkles,
that cannot be simply thrown away,
like an old calendar,
it is we who are on the journey,
like a moving train,
so let’s enjoy every new year,
like a new halt,
with no end, no beginning,
the journey should simply continue,
like a revolving planet…

P.S.This year comes to an end. I thank everyone who made me smile during the year. So here’s a Big Thank You to all my lovely friends.
Wishing you all a very happy, prosperous and fulfillingNEW YEAR 2023” 🙏💐🙏
