Life and truth

Life’s hassles are puzzles for the mortals,

Each comes in a platter of chance

One has to be an astute gambler,

for opportunity ripe to success only for them

Men and women of high stature,

Never leave a chance of adventure

They lead life like a game of poker,

and they always exhibit themselves to be a joker

Everyone in life seek Love, success, wealth and fame,

Few only are fortunate to lead this game

Rest of the mob squirms like a worm,

Blindly walking along with a swarm

There are men, who choose the obscured path,

For them life is a journey of endless swath

They are aloof to their friends and fellow-men,

For them the virtue of their goal is like a Ben

Endless journeys and tiring routes,

Yet few only find life’s eternal truths

Blessed are those who lead peaceful, contended life,

For them life is full of bliss without strife

Life always intrigue the wise,

For them the earthly pleasures are no nice

They don’t seek the truth at a mart,

For they know the priceless jewel is within their heart

These thoughts make my mind reposeful and sanctified,

I regret no more with life for being tried

I know for sure, now or later it will open the ultimate gate,

For me that moment will be the most cherished fate.
