LIFE


Lives are lost, tears are shed,
War makes people live in dread;
Yearning for a crumb of bread
The fear of living hangs by a thread.

Days may go, months may pass,
The sands of time always a crass,
Whatever, wherever… Life is a toss,
Heads or tails, the moment is our boss.

Bliss or sorrow, none to share,
‘Cause there’s no soul left to care;
Left with no one – alone and bare,
Speak to yourself, would you dare?

Greed does push for more and more – And
Hate and despair fill to the core;
Love and joy are shown the door – As
Lust for dosh comes to the fore.

Gossip fills in, humans pry,
Making the world dull and dry;
Come on, my friend, don’t you cry,
We will unite, let us try.

    beloved man of our country at the same time it is forced to give death sentence to
    a person who had involved in mumbai bomb blast! good....wish you all success!
