LAVISHING YOUTH; A VILLAGE LIFE

Lavishing Youth: A Poem on Village Life

Introductory Note

Lavishing Youth; a village life (poem) is based on the five stanzas. In this poem, I have reflected on my personal experiences that I came across during my youthful life span at my village (Arain, District Shikarpur, Sindh).

Similarly, I have shared my personal experiences and everlasting memories in this poem. Whenever I read this poem, it reminds me of my youth and gets me back to my past life through imagination.

I still remember those unforgettable moments and memories that give me an amazing feeling of compassion and love for my village.

LAVISHING YOUTH; A VILLAGE LIFE

Wow! The memory of youth is always overwhelming;
Wandering, ambling, sprinting, spoiling & exhaling,
Working in fields, grazing the herds, bathing in wells;
Missing that village life which causes me screams.

Not realizing how slight & meteoric; the lavishing youth is;
Though calm, slow, and simple, yet how supersonic it is,
Seeing the sun setting, birds singing, and south wind blowing;
Awoling buddies, taunting of elders & social gatherings.

Sweaty summer, stony schooling, sitting under shadows;

Exhausted sports, humid nights, and luscious mangoes,

Windy winter, bone fire, jaggery, and butter meal; adorable;

Chine apples, peas, chickpeas, and brassica fields are unforgettable.

Customs, traditions, cultural celebrations, festivals, mythos;
Arts, crafts, embroidery, pottery, carpentry, farming, folk songs,
All was life but the internet of things, yet it was a global village;
Simple but soothing, fresh and friendly, is my lovely village.

Ah! I miss those lovely days, the days of lavishing youth;
I spent them out but I always carry them, it gives me a soothing,
The purity, simplicity, innocence, calmness, chastity, and candor;
I can’t pay you back O! My lovely village Arain for your splendor.

Summary

Through this poem (Lavishing Youth; A Village Life) I have portrayed a picture of real village life. Actually, the beauty of countryside life lies in its true nature, calmness, green, and grassy fields.

Additionally, if you compare rural life with urban life, you will find a huge difference in terms of living, food, and culture. You get fresh and nutritious food here and enjoy the real beauty of nature that you often miss in urban life.
