BEAUTY OF LIFE

Life is so immensely beautiful;
When it is only lived totally!
But not to be afraid to live, naturally
Becomes profound and gains depth!

Life in its variety and richness, has
Its joys and sadness; its blessing’s
Its curses; its days and dark nights;
Its childhood; its youth and old age!

The child has a kind of beauty;
Youth also has its own beauty;
Both of these are shallow; they
Are more physical and less spiritual!

But old age has a kind of luminosity;
Something like a flame inside;
Very deep; filtering through; fulfillment!
The rays come outside too!

Death is also a kind of beauty
When it is only lived totally!
Death is simply the last statement;
When it comes we can relax!

Only if we live life with reverence,
With totality; there will be a relaxation;
As the child relaxes in his mother’s lap;
There will be a prayer with gratitude!
