One Glass

An inspirational poem, by Rituparna, exclusively for Different Truths.

All the good things we see
All the good deeds we do
All the good vibes we spread.

Let’s begin those again and again
Let’s begin those as if for the first time
Let’s begin right now as if there's no tomorrow.

Let’s brew them at the dawn of seasons 
Let’s stir them with cherries and grapes.

One glass for you, one glass for me
Many more glasses for we
Toasting our souls with the warmth of summer.

Let’s make life as intoxicating as ever.
