For The Sake Of Life Poem by Ramesh Joshi

FOR THE SAKE OF LIFE...
For the sake of livelihood, all struggle
Day and night, months, years, till the end.
All beings in frenzy, pervasive, perspiring
Purturbed pursuit they continue to survive.

In restless mind, each one eager to fill
The bottomless pit, moves earth and all
To share their turn, run hard in madness
Crying, rejoicing, tearful eyes in joyful sorrow.

Strange are the rules of life that the Nature
Has ordained one and all; : to live is to die to
Rejoice is to lament, to gain is to lose dear, to
Do is undoing, mixing all things, is life symphony.

In the endless life cycle, in the whirlpool of all
Changes, transformation continues, nothing to
Create and nothing destroyed at the eternal
Presence, unchanged spiralling up, HIS sport dear.
