Life is an oceanic sway
with umpteen hidden whirls,
Where, often is a separation
than a re-union,
Getting our shores into oblivion.
Life is an endless stage
with countless actors,
Where, often we miss our roles
and deliver not our dialogues,
Finally shrinking into a monologue.
Life is a humorist's paradise
and a pessimist's hell,
When, often we worry about
missing life at many angles,
Getting lost in the wilderness.
Life is a big banyan tree
with roots in the spiritual plane,
Where, often we stand under the shades
missing a deep breathe,
Missing the philosophy of life.
Ravi Panamanna
