Life is a parenthesis between nullity and meaning.
Each one of us can make it meaningful, not null and void,
But something to endure
Beyond memory or prophesy,
An air that has been felt or sung.
A profound poem that compels the reader to think about life.10
The note at the end of this little verse conveys my 'take' or 'give'.

Madhu, you are not only a poet but a reflective philosopher as well I am reading a book “a full life” reflections at ninety by Jimmy carter. I loved his earlier book “an hour before daylight” all selected by pantu. Priya still has to take photos and send them to Girija. Love to both of you.asha Jain
