CORRIDORS

POEM

We walk along the

corridors of the castle

of life each day.

While we are on the

move, we meet several  

persons some familiar ones

and many others  strangers.

If by chance, we meet

familiar faces, we gift broad smiles

of familiarity to them

and they never fail to

return the same in equal measure. 

In these days and age 

we are always in a hurry

no matter whatever be the reasons.

We never care to mingle 

with them and exchange pleasantries with them.

Each day according to

our will and pleasure

we choose different  corridors, still

we continue  to meet the

familiar faces as well  as the strange ones.

Corridors aplenty,  walkers aplenty 

every second, every minute, every hour

to be precise throughout 24X7 like an ever  flowing river.

This is the sum total of life but

with the passage of time

faces change, continue to change

and there is no escape

from that reality……
