Life…what is it?

Weekends

The sun burning hot

Cloudless sky

Not expect any rain

Little breeze cooling the heat

Me

Sitting inside the coffee house

Enjoying the cup of coffee and delicious chocolate cake

Watching thru the glass

Parents holding their children and their bags walking toward the centre

Children walking and running to catch up the adult’s steps

Preparing their children to know more than their classmates

Preparing their children to be on top of the class

Preparing their children to have a bright future

Preparing…is their life

Old folks struggle to get down from the bus

The steps were too high and their legs were weak

The walking stick guide and protect them thru each little steps they took

The wrinkle on their face tells a lot of stories in their life

History…is their life

Men and Women

Their steps were fast and big

Chasing for the career ladders

Chasing for the wealth

No time to slow down

No time to talk

No time to know what happen around them

No time…is their life

Inside the glass

Students buried in their assignment

Chasing for the piece of education paper

That will bring them to the next higher level of education

That will secure their future with no worry about money

Chasing…is their life

Men and Women

Occupied in their own world

“Don’t disturb me” … is their signboard

Leave me alone…is their life

My coffee and chocolate cake

Slowly and enjoying it

Life…what is it?
