Ululation Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Ululation

Rating: 5.0


Ululation is heard at the time of cruel death,
Umpteen People ululate from heart depth.
Unbearable pain it is for everyone sure,
Unavoidable is death no one can cure.

Unanticipated death comes to all at any time.
Unbidden it is, it hugs everybody without crime.
Unconcern is obtained people do think,
Unctuously it is true for present life link.

Undeniably resolves go with soul after death,
Undying is soul but body is dying when no breath.
Ungovernable sword can do no harm, nor the fire,
Uptight water can’t sink nor fly away the violent air.

Uptake we should have as man is truly mortal,
Ululation we mustn’t have as soul is immortal.

Unavoidable is death; because, immediately one is born, one is about to die. Nice work.

While reading the poem, I enjoyed the music of Ultrasonic words to my heart's satisfaction. I forgot, for a while, that the poem is about Death- the Ultimate destination of life. Thanks for this great poem.

Verily, we shouldn't ululate as only the body perishes.

I could never ululate. I think in fact that we don't mourn for the dead, but mourn for ourselves. They are in a better place and we have to live without them til it's our turn.
