Looking through the telescope of life.

Looking through the telescope of life!

Looking through the telescope of life,

We see far and long.

But different people look through them,

The elders who moan and the children who sing songs.

 

The incident in my life was a trail walk,

That will be seen from two people's eyes.

An elderly man who has had enough in life,

And a young boy who copes with life and to do so,he un-mistakenly tries.

 

"Oh! We are going for a walk in the trail,

I will have so much fun!

I have packed my lunch and camera,

I think it is all done."

 

Oh! Why go for a walk,

I am tired now.

Can't it wait Arthur,

I can't stay much active but you can, how?

 

Yes! We have reached the trail,

Look, there are animals and trees.

Oh! I can see a butterfly!

Go and stand there till I take your pic and say "cheese"!

 

I wish I could walk forever,

This is wonderful.

But i am very hungry,

Can we eat grandfather? You know I am not full.

 

At last! We can stop walking,

And I am hungry too.

And we can get away,

From the bird who screams cuk-coo.

 

Can we go home now, Arthur,

You know I am weak.

And I think I have had enough here,

I think we have been here for a week.

 

Okay grandfather,

As you say.

I have to obey you now,

But I really want to stay."

 

So through the telescope of life,

We saw the incident with different likes.

But we cannot change it,

Some people like and some do not like to hike.
