An Unknown Life Poem by Seema Jayaraman

An Unknown Life

Rating: 5.0


The warm friendly hand
embracing and encircling you
as the peaceful eternal sleep
come drifting on you

You enjoy the fine feeling
an angelic smile bedecks you
as your head slides besides
and calmness confronts you

Something so sublime, you never knew
These spectacular dazzling lights
greet you to eternal life
from millions of glowing stars

Taken on this grand tour
Where destiny merges with time
Millions of universes away
known only as dark death to mankind! !

Have never seen anything as beautiful written about a topic like death! My favourite lines: 'Taken on this grand tour. Where destiny merges with time.' Can't believe that you wrote this when you were in school!

i like it. AND it is short enough for me to use in my/our June 2017's showcase for PH poets on my PH site. let me know if you don't want it to be included, this coming month, with poems all by 'female' poets. favorite lines: Where destiny merges with time Millions of universes away known only as dark death to mankind! ! ......but, it seems it means more than dark death to you, and to millions........................................................................more who, unlike me, believe in 'life after death'. :) i would use comes: come drifting on you...............but i won't change it unless you tell/ask me to. i'll also use your Poet's Notes. Thanks, bri ;) to MyPoemList also.
