On The Earth Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

Why can't we see and watch
An automatic system and its functioning
Each living being is acting as a big hunter
Aiming at its target so hitting at fully hard
Nothing is big or small qua its activity zone
Everyone having original agenda so fixed for
Whole universe's busy with its assigned duty-
With no spare time getting free from its activity!
With the verses beyond time and age
Got to smile, laugh and dumbfound-
Just, singing melodious songs to dance
In tune with the music of the universe
Quite to new experience and excitement!
But, not so beyond the ground reality-
Where challenges are accepted and welcomed
Sleep or rest is like meditation when body asks
And Vedic verses at times used to warn-
‘Do give it, don't be slave to the comforts'
Thereafter, getting back in the family show-
Performing a lot of talking of love and trust!
It's His gratitude and graciousness
That we're the most humbled guests
But, still feeling the warmth of a host-
Yet, a guest for a few days on the earth!
