Life Is Fusion

Think no past, it is now gone, There is no time to rest and sit, Hold on to dreams and move on, And life is what we make of it. If you wish for better future, Act in present for pleasant time, Sow seeds of hope with labour, And learn to make your life sublime. Only the dead believe in sleep, While others combat in life, As they have promises to keep, And work hard to end their strife. Life is fusion of sun and rain, Clouds of sadness won't last long, Let the time heal all your pain, And turn life to easy song. Cherish what you have with you, Cry not for what you do not, Fortunate like you are very few, And thank God for what you got. Let not be conquered by woes, Leave inner fears and march ahead, The fears you own are your foes, Secrets of future are unsaid. Life is short to hold bitterness, For your good, you learn to forgive, Bring smiles with your kindness, Death is the end, deeds shall live. August 20, 2016. In the style of my favorite poet - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: The Seeker Inspired by the poem A Psalm of Life by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. http://www.poetrysoup.com/famous/poem/360/a_psalm_of_life This poem has been published in 2019 in my poetry collection "Far in the Meadows and other poems" by Meenakshi Raina
