Thoughts On Life Poem by Angelina Pandian

Life is not just a cycle, an ever-turning circle!
It is the center, point above, below and all around,
The circumference found nowhere
With its center everywhere.
It is all pervading, all surviving –
Life is deathless
For, death is but the shadow of Life!
Life is not just breathing, it is not mere existence
Life is not just a person or just tinsel love
Nor yet, passing pain, grief or joy
These but are mere feelings –
You feel because you live.
The purpose for what you work, eat and breathe
The reason, why you feel –
Cry, laugh or get annoyed – Or,
When you just learn to understand and accept,
Then, that inner thread, the vein of gold
Something, which you realize sometime
Is what people call –
“ Life! ”
