Poetry
Life never ceases to amaze
And leave us in a daze,
With its twists and turns,
And the surprises it churns.
I wonder, is there greater pain
In sadness or in gain ?
When I think I know it all
I come up against a blank wall.
Life never fails to spring a bolt from the blue,
Just when everything seems so good and true.
The Euphoria lasts but awhile
Leaving behind in its wake,
The full realization
That in life, there is no double take.
The seasons of life come and go
With its summer and snow,
Spring and fall.
One Chapter ends, another begins,
But does it really end at all ?
For oft, when Solitude beckons
We pick up the book, just to have a look,
At what was once the beauty of life.
To read between the lines and search deep within
The hidden nuggets as if in a mine.
To ponder and hold, one dear chapter,
Ever so bold, which once served as a golden mould
Can such a page, be now, but a fold ?
Can one turn the clock back ?
Does life give a second chance ?
Will time return to complete the things left undone ?
Or will the aches and broken dreams
The incomplete work, the missing link,
Remain but an unfinished art?
O Life ! Thou art a mystery so deep
And yet, for keeps.
