THE RACE AGAINST TIME!!

The race against time!!


This poem is written by a dying woman partly to herself, partly to her husband and to her two kids…

I look at the three of you and feel sad,
Coz I know what I am losing,
I can’t believe I am racing against time,
It still can’t believe I am dying,

Death is making me afraid,
As what will happen, I wonder,
To you and our lovely kids,
Once I am not near,

I want to see them grow,
And for themselves carve a name,
I want to see them reach the pinnacle,
And attain prestige and fame,

I want to hold my grandchildren,
In my arms and play with them,
And make them feel special,
By constantly pampering them,

I look at you, my beloved husband,
And remember the promises we made,
All the things we were supposed to do,
All the plans we had laid,

We were going to be together, forever,
But god had different plans for us,
Take care of yourself when I am gone,
And please bid me farewell, without any fuss,

I’ll miss you, my adorable kids,
But remember I am always there for you,
Looking after you, from heaven above
Sharing your joys and sorrows, protecting you,

I still can’t believe I am racing against time,
But I’ll always be there,
For the three most important people of my life,
Every moment, anytime, anywhere……………….

To you , my mother!! Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator. Thank You, for everything you've done, I need you, I really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I remember a day of the past, When you held my little finger, Took me to school the very first day. I was crying, terribly upset, Coz i didn't want to stay away from you. I remember how i used to cry, When every morning you went to the dispensary. I needed you then, i need you even now. I need your guidance, your advice. I need your backing, your support. Today I really want to say something, To you, my mother, my creator, Over the past few years, You've become my guide, my mentor, I need you, i really do, Please stay by my side forever.... I am indeed very lucky, To have a mother as sweet as you. I am indeed very lucky, To have someone who cares for me, Who appreciates my achievements with glee, Yet equally stern when i am wrong. You have a heart of gold, my mother, Please stay by my sid...

YOU HAVE ENRICHED MY LIFE!!

You have enriched my life!! In an era where happy marriages are an illusion, In you I see love so untainted, so true, It is pleasantly surprising and gladdening, And I feel so lucky to spend my life with you, The twinkle in your eyes; the caring look on your face, I see, as I open my eyes every morning, I feel your soft hands gently stroking my forehead, The moment is beyond doubt, refreshing, I feel excited while coming back from work, Knowing someone’s eagerly waiting for me, And as we sit and share the day’s happenings, All my worries vanish; I feel happy and free, Sweetheart, let me hold you for a moment, And let all the memories flow, From the first time we met, the first time we kissed, To the birth of our children, and seeing them grow, The times spent with you have been priceless, And I can’t imagine living even a day without you, Dear, your smile mesmerizes me even now, I can spend my whole life merely gazing at you. I feel like praising you all the time, For you are a ...

DRAVID: THE UNSUNG HERO!!

Dravid: The unsung hero!! An epitome of perseverance was he, A man of resolve; like a wall he stood, Weathering every belligerent storm with ease, Every single time, without an interlude, An epitome of ethics, an ideal sportsman was he, He made us believe, cricket’s still a gentleman’s game, For rarely he shouted, cursed or resorted to unfair means, Never did we see him bring our country’s reputation to shame, An epitome of selflessness was he, A man who would have walked on fire for his team, He did everything he was asked to do; and more, He would die saving someone else’s life, it does seem, An epitome of humility, a true altruist was he, For never in his life was he seen flaunting his records, Preferring instead to be a shadow, an unsung hero, A man who served; without expecting rewards, An epitome of loyalty was he, Like a mother loves her child since birth, Every step he took was in the interest of the country, Yet who never r...
