Let’s live it up

a poem by Nandita Pai

Enjoy every moment,
Every minute,
Every second.
Enjoy to the fullest,
The lovely journey of life.

Enjoy the rain,
As it drenched your face.
Enjoy the sunshine,
As it snuggles you warm.
Enjoy the chirping,
Of the sparrows and crows.
Enjoy the fluttering,
Of the wings of a butterfly.
Enjoy the fragrance,
Of the rain-wetted earth.
Enjoy the beauty,
Of the enchanting sunset.

Giggle along, with your
Dear little niece.
Share a moment,
With the poor flower girl.
Offer a smile,
To the Grandma next door.
Laugh out loud,
When your pals are around.
Say something nice,
About Mama’s new dish.
Compliment Dad,
When he wears a new shirt.

Do the ‘something’,
You always wanted to.
Tell that ‘someone’,
How much you care.
Be generous with your smiles,
Make someone’s day.
Coz hey,
You never know,
Kal Ho Na Ho…
