Another summer coming soon to an end,
And a new season just around the bend,
Its time to retrospect some old reels,
Replay both facts and feels,
Varied stages hold different appeal,
Some truths slowly simmer and reveal.
All actions have some return,
Some easy and others stern.
Some learnings come with burns.
And teach us how to discrete and discern.
Not all relations are forever,
Some sustain and others sever.
Not every time one needs to be quick and clever,
Some difficult doors can be opened with simple lever.
Since varied experiences make life’s twists and turn(s),
And some acts are better without a rerun.
Retrospection teaches there’s always something to learn,
And something to unlearn.
