FIRST LESSONS

A broken toy
first lesson in transience...
nothing lasts,
objects are just that
objects.

A piece of chocolate
traded for a piece of burfi
first lesson in commerce
money,buying,selling
that money is important
but enough or little
is for us to decide.

A new book
first lesson
in a cherished friendship..
these remain constant
in all times and last
a lifetime.

Every day with my toddler
is a first lesson....
and every lesson
is simple yet profound.
