Manmarziyan (Wishes)




Life is a journey

made sweet with your honey

its all a gamble

you are never sure you have met a bee or a butterfly


what you can do best is to be yourself

and wait if a bee comes back or a butterfly


what seems dear now may turn sour

and what seems sour now may turn dear


its all a game of luck and patience

you never know with which one would you would be stuck


so count your blessings and take step

as standing idle leads to misunderstanding


whatever you may wish to do

do it with open heart

so when you look back at your past

you dont have regret of not listening to your heart


there is no guarantee of success

nor there is absolute failure

but you would be satisfied with the outcome

as you abided by your heart to take that next step


if it feels funny in the gut

you are sure you are making a choice to your best

who knows whats in the future

you may be a dud or a jackpot winner


but nothing is stable even if you win it

you need to nurture to keep the feelings you have won

else it withers away like the pace of a tortoise

you would not know when you were left behind


so cherish the wins what you have

and love will find its way to your path


You would cherish it more

as you would attract butterflies a lot more

dont hate the bees 

as they would have taught you what to leave


Heart is fickle and mind is sturdy 

the combination of both will make life worth living :)
