Life is made of gifts that Gift begat
When love ablaze embraced emptiness
Light awoke the latent universe
Shining upon the birth of humankind
Life dwells in dreams of innocence
Glides on the wings of butterflies
Dancing to the rhythm of a breeze
Silence is its language to the heart
Life shines in the eyes of a babe
Cuddled in the arms of a grandma
It is aglow in a lover’s gaze
Piercing through bounds of time and space
Life does not partake in trivial games
Governing the existence of the dead
Who credit value just to loss and gain
Blindly playing, oblivious to the aim
Life does not know address or name
Seeks neither riches nor worldly fame
Giving without condition is its style
Friendship is its trade, its coin is a smile.
