Lessons Of Life! Poem by Ramesh T A

Sickness creeps in one unaware rendering ineffective
Until one gets all right by medicine and vitamins....!
Being sapped off all energy, one is just a body sans soul
Unless one takes solid food to gain energy to do all well!

Days go on when one is well chasing after dreams long;
But only when one is caught by web of sickness, one knows
What is one's real position and all dreams and imagination
Fly to nowhere putting one in realistic thoughts to know truth!

Wisdom prompts one to think about what is possible and
Eschew vainful dreams so as to achieve what one deserves!
One can fly in imagination, but ground is the landing place
And sky is only a temporary excursion to free oneself of fatigue!

Experiences in life give real lessons about our life in the world
And what we can achieve to build tower based on that foundation!
