The Mysterious Cycle Of Life. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

The mysterious cycle of life.

Observe the nature carefully.
Wonder about the mysterious cycle of life,
death, sufferings, deprivation and poverty.

The grain of wheat falls and dies
to produce an abundance of new life
which transcends itself
in both quality and quantity.

Think of the metamorphosis,
the post-embryonic change
in form of an animal
as when the larva of an insect
becomes a pupa and a tadpole
changes into a frog.

Metamorphosis is mysterious
development of life.

We go through the mystery of death.
In faith we know that death is a metamorphosis
and it will result in a glorious life in heaven.
