Lively Ironies

================ AN INSPIRATION FROM VISH _____________________________________________ Our life is a long nightmare Leaping to and fro, a hunted hare She births darkness admist the day And sweeps the smile that lights our way She meets mankind in joyful feasting And leaves his life in sorrow fasting She sounds the gong, a birth announcing And chants the dirge, a life departing She sews our hearts in one affection And let them loose in separation She feeds our soul from flowing fountains And breaks our heart on rocky Mountains Our life is a long nightmare A golden opportunity to live right here

Lines 3 and the last, are wonderful summary points. Well-crafted poem, revealing much talent in Eduardo. Either we can live "right here" or I trust Jesus & the Bible to overcome any "nightmare." It is not everyone's cup of tea. You provide a nice secular choice. Shalom, shalom (Paz!) Anil Deo
