43
Age is a number, that’s no excuse I see
let’s get at terms with 43
Age is sure, strong & surprisingly it flees
Wee three, in teens, 23,33 and heading ahead in the series
Today I stumble on 43,
It’s truly a nice day to travel back in Time Machine
Dream, dream and just dream….
Saying hello to younger me
Living all the lovely birthdays so far, rare as silver birch tree
As age grows, sensibility too increase
Celebrations change but deep in heart, wishes swirl magical and free
A thing relatable to smaller me
I am sure you too would agree
The little child will always stay sound and on spree
Let’s get this thing right and as a highlighted key
Mindset shift relives the yester & present glory
Don’t run after something ephemeral and brief
Time’s fleeting to spend in vain and worry
43, & more - count will grow, no doubtedly
Mindfulness, happiness, integrity will make it all glee
Finally what’s the last line of this poetry?
Well! 43’s no big deal, chill & merry
Happy birthday to me!!!
