Life is short
May be as good as some years or so
Death is long
For it is as good as a century and beyond
So I cry over
When it comes before not tapping at door
Though it is a sleep heavenly
With infinite dreams of Him only
And it is a feeling heavenly
With unceasing love of Him only
And it is an adventure
Unto that land of mystery
And romanticism where we go to Him blissfully
Yet I fear while being called early
Oh, God
Tell me unlike seasons why life is not round
Life is short May be as good as some years or so Death is long For it is as good as a century and beyond So I cry over When it comes before not tapping at door - - - - Fear of death and fear of uncertainty are always there in human mind.Death is fearful because it comes without notice.

I would like to translate this poem
A poignant, touching and insightful poem. Most of us if not all viewed life and death this way. If there is life, there is death. Yet life is ephemeral and when death comes, it is eternal. There is always fear for it comes like a thief in the night and terminates everything. A great poem brilliantly penned. Onto my Poem List.
Many many thanks Rose Marie......I am truly humbled
