philosphy..about life's mistakes...to value this given life
LIFE AND DEATH

From a foetus to a baby
The birth of a child makes the mother happy
Her happiness immeasurable
Her tears of joy..uncontrollable..

A new life is a gift of god..
Irreplaceable is the human body
From crawling to walking
The mother sees the child growing..

The train of life has left the station
The young man set to achieve his ambition..
Into a cruel world he ventures..
Where the weak are maligned and captured…!!

Caught in a web of failures..
To him, his future looks obscure..
There is no turning back..
Way too far on the wrong track…!

Smoking, drinking a deadly addiction,
Worsened by drugs ,what a pathetic condition!
To live anymore, he had no desire
“what have I done ?” came out his cries…

Yes, death is inevitable..
He died a death unimaginable..
His dreams remained unaccomplished..
With his death a captivated message “unleashed”!

This life is a blessing..
For a cause, we are living..
Need to make our lives worthwhile,
To bring happiness with a smile..


This world is a stage
Men perform various roles as they age
Role has to be played sincerely
To work truthfully and honestly..

An illusion should not cover the eyes..
Demarcate between the right and wrong ways
Weary may be the travelers in the desert
Do not give into the temptation to quench the thirst..

The journey ahead may look ardous
With our lives we cannot be callous..
Remember “keep up the pace”
Slow and steady wins the race..!!

Many road blocks in the journey..
To fight them is necessary!
When you have reached the end
To the heavens, you shall ascend!
