I Can and I will!!
I will have an extra scoop of ice-cream or
one more fat burger,
I can surf internet till 4.00am and sleep
till noon,
I can forget birthdays and anniversaries and
for that matter even names,
I am happy to stand in senior citizens’ queue,
I can drink or eat in the bed, and I do not
care to control body noises,
Not Lady Gaga, Justin Beaver, but Frank
Sinatra, Boney M are for me,
‘Here is Lucy’ still entertains me and so
does ‘Sound of Music’,
It doesn’t bother me if I cannot send SMS,
but I still miss pager,
My literature is ‘Archie Comics’ but I also
love Ayn Rand and John Steinbeck,
My travels do not have itineraries, nor has
fixed hotel bookings,
I can have one way ticket to anywhere, with
no fixed plans for return
I do blunder in social etiquettes or paper
works, but at my age
I have earned rights to be wrong!!!
I don’t care for Grey hair & Wrinkled skin,
I don’t care for Cholesterol & sugar,
I don’t care for bones and joints,
I know my appointment with HIM is fixed,
I don’t want to mess with that,
But till then
I want to live my life,
I have seen good people, hard working people
dying,
I have seen them leaving after toiling for
life time,
I do not like that,
When I die,
None might shed tears, feel sorry and none
might miss me,
But
I want none to pity me for not ‘Living’ my
life
