Wanderlust

By S Varshini

The happy wide smiles carried him

through millions of miles,

The crazy old times flashed

through his mind like clouds of joy,

As he arrived at the final destination

he stood in awe of the ocean's origination,

Light heartedly as he enjoyed the scenic beauty,

there arose something in his consciousness,

That all this while seeking himself in alleys

during life's peaks and valleys,

He had been so busy with daily chores,

he forgot the one person who was always there,

So he smiled and whispered to his reflection,

"Thank you for loving me through it all

from beginning to the end"
