Transformation

From a cute lil infant

Wailing all day,

To a curious toddler

Trotting all the way,

The journey of transformation

Had just begun. 

From an inquisitive school goer

Reading books and paper,

To a vibrant teenager

Watching cricket like never.

The journey of transformation

Had just picked up the pace. 

From a confident college girl

Dreaming of conquering the world,

To an independent working woman

Stepping into the corporate world,

The journey of transformation

Had just become challenging. 

From being single

And ready to mingle,

To tying a knot and

Keeping life uptight

The journey of transformation

Had just entered the next station. 

From a proud mother of two

Beaming with joy at every second

To a proud mother of hundred and two

Teaching me to love every child

The journey of transformation

Had just turned to be my teacher. 

From Frost, I would borrow and say...

"And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep".

Till the journey of transformation

Pauses and begins to cease.
