Seasons of LifeA Poem by RiddhiThis is a poem which describes the love of parents towards their children but how today's young generation betrays it.It is also about different stages of our life......
An old man sits on a bench thinking,
how like spring once in childhood he too was flowering. Then came the most busy season of his life - summer, Where he has no time to even spread rumour. This was the most busiest part, As this was the teenage years,when he have to learn science and art. Then came the rainy season , when he had to do college and buy for his wife a nice mansion. Then came his life's winter, when he had to look for his children's bright future. This was the most hustle and bustle part of his life, Where he have to settle his children along with his wife. Finally came the saddest thing, When with his children he can no longer merrily sing. He still remembers how he taught his sons to walk, But none among them with him now talk. When they were young he supported them, But now when he was old none of them supported him. He was abandoned by all of them, Because he was now a burden for them. He cannot control his tears, remembering the cute scolding he gave to his children by pulling their ears. He considered them as his support for his old age, but now he waits for his last breath sitting on this bench of old age home...
