LIFE

 

Dr. M. Siva Prasad

 

That something is there somewhere

deluding, wandering in the night, at the end

even to know what is where

in the search itself

Life is coming to an end!!

Starting the journey in the evening

proceeding till midnight

by the sunrise-time, at the end

arriving at the starting place itself is life!!!

If the sun rises in the midnight, it is revolution

if the sun sets in the morning, it is destruction

if the full moon blooms in the evening, it is culture

if the sun and the moon

bloom simultaneously beyond time

it is self-manifestation!!

Even hundred years of human life

is a blink in eternal time-ocean!

In the direction of flow

humanity with no beginning and no end for the Lord’s life itself

is one permanent great experience.
