Life And Death- The Marvel of Life

WHO KNOWS

Oh! What is today,

Be not tomorrow.

What might happen?

May not, tomorrow.

Life and Death are neither fixed nor said.

“Experiencing life you are,

Death is experienced by all.

Long or Short life can be,

Always same, Death could be”.

Spoken about death, has who?

Only guesses about it too…

Like all the matter in the world,

One other mystery, Death adds on…

One can guess, but never say,

His solution is the everlasting way.

Like a pin, can replace a pin

Any guess may replace one’s guess.

“Oh ho! So what can I say?

What might today,

May not again.

Oh! Life is a mystery,

Happening, an adventure.”

Past, a history

Future is a sea

Who knows who may row it tomorrow?

A POEM ON HUMAN CONSCIENCE

NOT TO BE!!!

I sat at the window sill,

Thinking about tomorrow’s work at the mill.

I wondered how wonderful it would be,

To be a person, anyone but me.

I wondered how it would be;

To sell Mangoes and Chilli powder at the Sea…

‘Ah yes’ said the demon in my mind.

Sprinkle the powder with drugs behind.

Let the innocent people of human face

the consequences of the evil human race.

Oh no no no, said the little fairy.

How can a devil live in a little angel?

I understood the moral of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde

That a person is not one, but truly two inside.

Oh God! Thanks a lot,

For making me not to be a Not to be
