Life and death are twine
Inseparable amazing twins
They hang together on a thread
Singing and swinging on a rope
A moment there is full life
Other moment there is death
When there is no breath and
no heart beats there is death
Life is a precarious thing
Try your best to preserve it
The shadow of far death
Brings sadness and agony
As long as there is hope
Lust for life is powerful
The desire of life and survival
An instinct nature has bestowed
Like a rising sun and its rays
piercing the darkness of night
You may wish to live forever
But time is absolute grinder
The farewell rays of the sinking sun
Announce the end of the bright day lights
Death is a cup that has been tasted by everyone
From that time of immemorial never been written
A cup that was drunk by the kings
The queens, the mighty and tyrants
A common cup for the rich and the poor
The sage, the wise and the simple fools
The tree full of fruits in hot summer
The tree bare of fruits in cool winter
The garden full of flowers in spring
The fallen crisp brown leafs in autumn
The joyful life is garden full of bloom
The shadow of death is the dark clouds
The happy moment of birth and the celebration
The time of death the tears, sorrows and cries
The fear of death of yourself
The fear of death of your loved ones
Lot of concerns and sadness
Lot of worries and helplessness
Death is unwelcome news and morbid
You do not need thought of death to absorb you
Through passage of times and through the ages
We have learned to bury the constant death fear
It is human instinct to look forward
Not to dwell on unhappy thoughts
If you are enjoying life
You wish to live forever
If life turns sour and pain
You may wish to depart away
For the faithful through prayers
There will be another rewarding life
by the blessings of the great loving creator
there will be singing angels and white doves
