Bow Down To Storm To Rise Upto Norm

Bow Down to Storm, To Rise up to Norm In praying position as the religion directs, bow down to storm As god’s judgement, can’t avoid, have to weather it as the norm. Will the storm breed life or decay and destroy is the question? Will one be able to gather the strength to rebuild and refreshen? Night ends day begins, day ends night begins, is a cycle of life Bad will be cleared by good, to cycle bad again put more strife Don’t cry anymore if in life you have to face hardships of love But one must try to forget hardships consorted with life thereof. The conflict between life and decay will soon come to an end And the flowers of life will soon grow and blossom in the end. The aftermath of hardships is like the aftermath of the storm Only way to face them is to rise, to reconstruct and to reform.

Some things on this earth are much more powerful than we are, so we must weather the storm every now and then. And, hopefully when it has passed we can rebuild and start life over again.

What a profound and deep poem. Thanks for posting. In life, no matter what, only the strong survive. Your last two lines are so true. When one says "I can't take anymore" is when one dies.
