Life- A Stream Of Water Poem by Khairul Ahsan

Life- A Stream Of Water

Rating: 5.0


A narrow stream of water rolls down
Silently, like a reptile homeward bound,
Where, unsure!

The outspread land tells her
‘Go over me as you wish'!
She proceeds, breaking silence,
Expands as she moves, collects pebbles,
Holds on her wavy chest numerous bubbles,
Many of those burst, many hold on for a while.
She flows on, to an uncharted destination, unknown,
With pebbles on her bed and bubbles on her chest!

" Expans as she moves" ! Muse of a lovely river flowing; Till it reaches the sea! ! ! Such is life! With the muse of mankind on earth; The journey, Life by birth, Till the end by death. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
