Old Time- Full of Knowledge!
When I was small and less than twelve
I played in the dusty streets of my city
Not many vehicles would cross those roads
Where my evenings were spent playing.
There was no rush in anyone's life
No compromise with healthy diet
No bikes rushing for food delivery
Nor any gadgets, our hands remained free.
Nothing used to be a click away like today
They made their long journeys without delay
Trees occupied half area of our home's land
And it seemed fun, never lack of interior design.
Education was the super power
Each parent wanted their child to have
I too studied, grew up to be fine
So now I can realise it's worthiness in time.
Although commercialisation has taken over its hand
On my childhood city which seems now to be going bad
When I turn back to look once again at past times
I realise that my city was a village full of knowledge even at that time!
