Learn to LIVE

This is my favourite poem. Something meaningful and genuine for a change !

Merry-Go-Round

Round and round

Soon life comes around

Roller coaster

What a toaster

Life becomes scarier than a monster

Twist and turn

Twirl and tide

Makes us hide,

From life's bad side

But very few abide

To this rule

Though it is too cool [:p]

It is like a cup of coffee

Bittersweet and tastes like Toffee

Once filled up to the brim

It can't hold no more

And there it remains grim

Waiting to be tasted

To be relished

Each and every sip...

And then comes along love

With its typical symbol of a dove

To deter us away from hate

Which spoils each one's fate

But we are ignorant

As we always are arrogant

Of what we want,

Of when we want,

Of why we want,

Out of life,

Out of love

True,true but what do we do

Since we are crude and brood

Over our past, present and future

We live life our way

Demand things to stay

Breaking rules and wishes

Just so our lives are bliss

To shine and stand out

We easily lose ourselves without doubt

To only end up fumbling and stumbling

And come back to our dwelling

Material things, material possessions

Makes us run hither to thither

But we forget one thing

That all that matters is people

And the rest is immaterial

So live life in its true bloom sense

With some fun and common sense
