Your Promise

by Dr. Jaipal Singh



Beautiful morning dawns Ever with a new hope Whether clear or misty In the vagaries of the day The evening brings With every sunset A promise of a new dawn Through the silence of night The days, months and years Thus keep on passing Yet to keep promise You never show up, Only the memories come. Through the heat of summer And the welcome relief of rain The frosty winter sets in The spring blossoms to wither Thus four seasons come And all seasons change The cycle continues as ever Unabated with a precision Yet to keep promise You never show up, Only the memories come. The mighty sun Never fails to give life The beautiful moon Never loses moonshine The star studded sky Never stops its twinkle In the cosmic milky way Every celestial phenomenon Goes on unabated and cyclic But to keep promise You never show up, Only the memories come.

Thanks, Kulbir Ji, I think hope and 'faith' keep present comfortable so 'In another life' is not a bad idea for solace; as such, I am quite fond of your 'four liners'.

Have faith:
In another life,
Another place,
We'll meet again!
