Why Are We Here
My love for this multihued world, like a magnet, pulls me,
The unknown, (portrayed like pie in the sky), surges my fear;
My rebirth, though it looks like a myth, brings a bit of glee,
An absurdity, yet, within, often seems to appear...!
Everything, here on earth, looks like a celluloid fancy,
Days dawn with wonders, optimistic and pessimistic;
Joys and pains, like mushrooms after rains, are often chancy,
Caring and sharing, like heaven, make life altruistic...!
A single human life, here, is enough, if lived deftly,
Born again to die again, is a mere musical chair;
The soul should find its place of rest, being lived intently,
A life, clear as a crystal stream, is my only prayer...!
Finding the divine in each being be my constant strife,
May Nirvana (perfect peace and happiness) fill my life…!!!
