Never Too Late

Jayasree

As the years pass by

I realise what I lost

 and what I gained.

So many things left undone

opportunities lost.

The silences in between,

words unspoken

sentences not written

the pauses in between too long!

and in the fine line 

between night and morning

I wake up and realise 

what I was 

was never enough

what I was 

was not whole.

Time flies and never comes back.

I am encased in a bubble

regrets clouding my thoughts.

Then one fine day

the bubble burst

the regrets fled

and I realised that 

life is a blessing.

God's gift!

It's never too late 

for anything,

never too late to bloom.

          And my, how you bloom with your finely woven words here on MPS.

          Regrets should be left where they fell for hopes and wishes abound. The future is a smile ahead.

            so true, dear poet
            words of hope
            that can be appreciated, even by those
            who see 'God' as a word of antiquity or myth..
            thank you
