Four Islands
FOUR ISLANDS
Way points in stream of life show four islands
Where to spend as baby, child, young and old.
Firstly, baby grows, learns to sit and stand.
Under parental care childhood days turn gold.
On second spot, budding youth is eager
Way points in stream of life show four islands.
Zealous youngsters wait for youthful vigour
to float in ambitions on stream strand.
Next island tempts, shows youth all stuff at hand.
Love, success, victory, ego to capture.
Way points in stream of life show four islands.
Desires and dreams soaring high in rapture.
Last island is honey-less hive to live.
Last call about to send final errand.
‘Enjoyed your life, now get ready to leave.’
Way points in stream of life show four islands.
