Separate seasons - poem 

------------


What I studied—

was the first season;

what my children studied—

the season that followed.


The work I did—

was the first season;

the work my children did—

the season that followed.


When I made a family—

that was the first season;

when my children made their families—

the season that followed.


When I began to grow weary—

that was the first season;

when my children began to grow weary—

the season that followed.


Two railway tracks

never meet.


Better, then,

to yield a little,

and to cherish each other.


— Nagendra Bharathi
