Life is....

NafisaSB

Life is a garland of roses

Life is a wreath of thorns

Life takes on variegated  poses

Life is a bull’s sharp horns.

 

Life is the glow of love-light

Life is the death of sorrow

Life is dispelling the darkness of night

Life is a wait for tomorrow.

 

Life is the lash of a whip

Life is the antics of a clown

Life is the sway of a hip

Life is the intensity of a frown.

 

Life is the sacrifice of a wife

Life is the come-hither look of a girl

Life is that in which pain is rife

Or it’s the beauty of a pearl.

 

So, what is LIFE

Which is piercing as a knife

Is full of envy and strife

Is possessed by the living, discarded by the dead

What is the concept you have in your head ?????

    life is these words of your poetry
    touching so many, and you
    asking for nothing, in return
    dear poet

    • NafisaSB

      the only thing i seek is that like minded people read and enjoy it, and if it makes someone happy, i am glad

    • Rocky Lagou

      The beauty of life is that it can be all these things you've presented. It's always changing and never still. Amazing.

      • NafisaSB

        yes, life is ever changing - never still, and each day is meant to be enjoyed to the very brim. have a good day, and wish your life is more a bed of roses, with very few minor thorns
