Paper Boat

What cherish-able were the times,

When assets were less

But life glittering shine.

Innocence wrapped us around

Love and cheerful we sound

Technology was far away,

Together for hours we would play.

Rainy day would make boats

Sailing around on cheerful notes.

And happiness in loads.

Society was more a family

Giving each one useful remedy

Together in all sort of tragedy.

Now the doors are always lock

Neighbors barely indulge in talk

In same corridor strangers walk.

Money has got many comforts

But has taken away the words.

Sometimes I wonder if its a curse.

Wish my kids could live up

What I had while growing up

But this will not work.
