Like a song that lingers in the mind
Like a song that lingers in the mind, And we sing unaware of why we sing. Somedays people, other days events, Repeat in my mind. Today, I was under the spell of the word, nitpicking- not that I was enriching my vocabulary, But thinking of what memories it brought, Bittersweet or sweeter bitter. And I close the day telling myself, Whatever! I don’t care more. Shehnaz Gujral February 24,2026
