Gossamer Gauze Poem by Aniruddha Pathak
Gossamer Gauze
Life a long voyage of pilgrimage,
And actors we all acting on stage,
Who, for a rare applause
That we might hope to cause,
Love to linger on to prison cage.
______________________________________________________
And we all might think we are great actors, while in truth we are no more than buffoons in the eyes of a spoil-sport called Fate, Fortune, or Destiny. And applause we see is gossamer gauze. The voyage guide gives no tour programme. The director of the stage-play gives no script. The destiny provides no prompt. And still we hope for applause!

A wonderful poem about life's journey.Nobody knows what lies ahead.We are but puppets in the hands of destiny.
