The Best Poem Of Parneet Jaggi

Lessons Of Life

Lessons of life
Perfectly planned
Intricately woven
into a carpet of immaculately neat designs,
One moves its hands
to find each thread
finely fastened into
each other,
Lest humans in the habit of plucking things
indiscriminately
perturb the divine designs.
Destiny so benevolent holds your hands
to walk on the carpet
and check each thread
lying bare
to help recognize
which colour is for you.
The myriad flourescence bedazzles,
But the solo solace
of walking on the carpet is
that someone is holding your hand.
