950: Life Time Poem by Amit Biswas

If you knew maths, life is like the real line,
Not just infinite but dense and uncountable,
F(x) =1 by x, is a one to one function, but for 0,
So a small interval of (0,1) is as big as (1, infinity)

Studied in RK Mission just three years,
But that’s education of my life-time,
Taught a semester in US, experienced
Loneliness of another life time,

Two decades in a marriage, a life time!
Few friends of 10 years, yet another,
A love lost in just 19 months,
As big as the same life time.

Big or small, each one is a life time,
Is one bigger than the other?
It may seem so to you, maths says otherwise,
You would know when you are wise.
