Transiency Poem by Khairul Ahsan
Transiency
We are all but co passengers
Waiting in a transit lounge,
To catch our scheduled flight
To our respective destination.
The flight is scheduled though,
The schedule is not known to us.
The lighter the luggage,
The easier the journey.
We fondly carry our luggage, but alas!
At the destination point all our luggage
Will disappear deserting us, alas!
Alone we come to this world, alone we go!
I believe, our good deeds, our noble virtues,
Our charity, kindness, compassion, empathy
Will combine together and accumulate
As an asset for redemption Hereafter.

Superb write with such wise words and our virtues will bring us on a journey of happiness and peace!
@Valsa George, Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Yes, 'we are all waiting for some other destination. In this journey lesser luggage is more comfortable as all of us will have to leave behind our cargo. All that we can carry is our good deeds! ' It's a correct depiction of our situation as a traveller on life's path. I am glad to know that you too 'often have similar broodings' as mine!

This poem shows that you have a clear perception of life....! We are travellers waiting at the exit lounge. We do not know when our flight is scheduled.... but we are sure of onething....! We are all waiting for some other destination. In this journey lesser luggage is more comfortable as all of us will have to leave behind our cargo. All that we can carry is our good deeds! I often have similar broodings!
Deeds! ! With positive morals. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
