carefree kids
across the lanes
middle of garden
beside the big fountain
play the game
called “hide and seek” once again
those kids mature day by day
as nature progresses its reign
starting of school it is
playing “hide and seek” in school again
Teasing the friends
hiding from teachers while forgetting assignment
days pass
so are the similar lanes
preparing to enter high school again
playing and teasing
running and resting
playing “hide and seek” from exams again
years pass
maybe to some maturity lasts
Gone, the days of high school
entering the race of competition
esteemed colleges to make through
many a times living the dreams of the gardener who tendered them
in their hard work
in their youth
finally comes the most enjoyable time
maybe it shall be, last streak of leisure life
playing “ hide and seek “ with friends and professor
bearing those memories inside
for the rest of life
seasons pass by
like the golden days
the college ends
clock ticks by
stern is its face
now it’s time to grow up again
entering the office life
or going for value addition
no more “hide and seek” for fun
now hiding from problems
now hiding from chaotic mess
now hiding from scoldings of boss
now hiding from loan sharks
and seeking the answers
seeking the lover
seeking the lost happiness
seeking the meaning of their existence
Looks like “hide and seek” changed its game
it’s no more the “hide and seek” of past again
cherish whatever era of “ hide and seek” you belong
maybe hiding from doom
and seeking peace
thats wonderful too….
