Full of cares, full of tensions,
Naught ‘tis but only life.
Full of sweet scents, full of cool sounds,
‘Tis life.
‘Tis like a garden
Full of captivating flowers with
Couples of birds singing harmoniously,
Besides, thousands of bees working hard.
Naught ‘tis but a war of pre-eminence
The world is the combat zone; temptations, the opponents;
We, the soldiers; actions, the armaments;
Hell and heaven the conclusion
Naught but a tedious journey ‘tis
For the idlest.
Naught but a peaceful lake ‘tis
For the ablest.

An insightful piece on the good and bad sides of life well depicted in the poem. Indeed life is a tedious journey for lazy ones and a voyage of hope and fulfillment for the industrious. Thanks for sharing Anish. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
