HAVE YOU EVER STOPPED…………



HAVE YOU EVER STOPPED…………




Have you ever stopped                                                           
To see the national flag
Fluttering high with pride?
If not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
That you should aim for the skies
Have you ever stopped to see ant
Carrying bits of food?
If  not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
That sweet are the fruits of labour
Have you ever stopped to see a baby
smiling at you?
If not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
That smile can change somebody’s life
Have you ever stopped
To see a spider making his web
With  great zeal and devotion
If not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
That you should never give up
Have you ever stopped
To see the colours of the rainbow
Inside the Soap bubbles which you where blowing?
If not, then stop today  
Because it is telling you
That cribbing won’t help, but being content will
Have you ever stopped
To see sweeper cleaning the road
For you to be happy while walking on it?
If not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
You should appreciate other
Have you ever stopped
To feel the softness   
Of your grandma’s saree?
If not, then stop today
Because it is telling you
That you should reciprocate love and care
Have you ever stopped
To call your good friend with whom you had a fight?
If not, then stop today
Because friend is like a diamond
Precious and rare
Have you ever stopped
To hear the chirping of the birds
Or the gentle pattering of raindrop falling on the leaves?
If not, then stop today
Because it is teaching you 
To be humble
Have you ever stopped
To observe those fluctuating light on the road 
Or  the waves of the beach?
If not, then stop today
Because they are telling you that
you will have ups and downs in your life
Don’t   you think we must all pause a while
To better decipher
The messages embedded in the universe
Through all these things???
