Evening sky looked down on her..
She sat waiting in the verandah..
Minu curling up on her lap..
And Jumbo sitting next to her...
It was just like any other day..
Only the picture stayed with me..
Even after all these years...
A day I would give away my today for..
A day I long to live again..
Simple moments, simple pleasures..
Happiness was easy to find..
A look, a touch, a pat on the head..
All it took for the heart to smile...
Crooked are the ways of the world today..
I've learned few tricks myself too..
And though they help to get me high..
The fall breaks my spirit away...
I've grown cold and few years old..
And coldness is freezing my soul..
Let me in to my past and bless me..
with the warmth of my yesterday...
(Note: Minu and Jumbo refer to pets, a cat and a dog respectively)
