A Day Back

a day back i realised the value of those coins strewn carelessly in da pocket of my jeans..

when i saw an old uncle on the road..anxiously searchin for his lost one rupee coin...

a day back i realised the value of a dairy milk bought solely for lack of "change" @ da kirana shop...

wen i gave one to a labourer's kid who smiled clutching her million dollar treasure...

i

a day back i realised the value of a honest, candid friend..

when one of them effortlessly walked away unaware of the damage they caused by their lack of action..

a day back i realised the value of spring...

when i saw those yellow leaves fallen on the roads..the ones which once adorned those trees..

a day back... i realised the value of childhood memories..

when i saw an old auntie gaze out of this toy shop...

a day back i realised the value of the three "taken for granted" meals..

when i saw a street kid searching for something to eat in the garbage trolley..:(

& a day back i realised the value of untiring "patience"...

when i wondered how mumma cudnt sleep flat on her tummy for 9 whole months.:O.....coz i was IN THERE!!:)
