Destiny- Devotional Poem

I have observed that with every person I meet and see,
There’s a destiny connected in my past.
Time has made me trust this truth,
transition from belief to disbelief has been fast.
Some call me insane, several call me mad,
when I tell them my belief.
How does it matter?
when all I know is peace and relief.
In your name, there is so much joy
that nothing else matters.
Everywhere I see you, in people’s faces,
in their woes, smiles and flatters.
Nobody seems to know the real reasons
for their success, failures or those petty small fights.
For destiny has given them too many thrills,
despite many sorrows, a universe full of delights.
No one here has got everything they wanted.
No one here has a life that is hunky-dory,
Yet everybody is fulfilled in many ways,
because they have your friendship, love and company.
We all come alone and one day, face the celestial recall.
There is a huge rise and uplift and yet, a sudden unexpected fall.
Death strikes us and sorrows know no bound,
Destiny wreaks havoc, infinite and abound.
yet, amidst these contradictions, true joy is definitely found.
Dear Lord, Thanks for this illusive life.
Thanks for all the suffusions out of which I derive clarity.
My life is your gift, your property…
…and I continue to praise your mercy.
