This Is Life
Life admirres you as long as you raise,
soothing joy it provides by its praise,
there is sunshine but no dismal cloud,
and slowly like a spell it makes you proud!
The people around all seem good and true,
for they are busy gathering floers for you,
Life seems to be a bed of roses or a boon,
but vapours they are-they will vanish soon!
Don't be a fool- don't be wise,
there are smiles-there are cries,
your colourful sight will turn dull once you fall,
and the Good people around will quickly change all!
No longer will they response when you wish,
and all your aspirations when you wish,
but remember life is a wind which will always blow,
and its persistent harshness can never make you slow!
Flowers bloom because they've to fall someday,
but as long as they stay-they scent the day!
and today you are high but tomorrow you may fall,
so as long as you are high, spread joy among all!
the joy that you bring to others in your day of power,
will come back to your rescue in your despair hour!!!
