Cocktail

When we look back today, what we see behind is a mixture of sweet and saline memories. We just need to keep a balance of both in our lives so that it tastes good :) Leave your comments on this one.

Hey traveler,

Look back and peep into your past journey.

Squint your eyes to the farthest of views

See the distance you have covered

Push yourself a little further; ride the horse of time.

Hover your hands up in the air; collect the honey of laughter dripping

Call it your places of sweet memories

Bend a little lower then; scoop the salt of sorrows twitching

Call it your places of tearful stories.

Spot the imprints from the marks left on course

Grab the grass that grows above; Seal it in a jar of present.

Call it your place of growth and experience.

On the way back to now; dip a stick in the rainbow of glee.

Pour the honey, sprinkle the salt and chop the grass in a glass.

Decorate it with the rainbow stick and top it with cherry of smile.

Mix it all and gulp it down; feel the roller-coaster.

Taste of this life’s cocktail will call you for some more.

This is a great piece! I'm assuming that English is not your first language? (I can see that you're located in India!) It seems you already have a much better grasp of the language than most native speakers.

That being said, would you like someone to provide you with some potential edits? There are a couple of spots where I believe the sentiment could be clarified.
