Unearthing Life 4

Unearthing Life 4

A Poem by Anand Sehgal

Before realizing the ultimate truth of life
that nothing lasts forever,
 one must live through the phases of jealousy ,
stages of competition,
days and nights of victory-defeat ,
flower-sword feelings of collaboration-sabotage.

Avoiding all these nobody  has
really become a "great" .
A good blend of vices and virtues
reinforce the human-fiber.

oh I loved this... You were able to skillfully say so very much in a few lines that were packed with emotion and life ... and I am amazed and enjoyed each word, each line...

everything is ephemeral ! phew !
"Human-fiber" I really like that description. I agree though with this poem. Life is about living and learning. We have to learn to have experience. Thanks for the great short poem!

This is so true. No one is exempt from the entire "ball of wax" if you will. We all have the same things going on and will all fall and rise many times throughout our lives. Nicely done!!

Thanks so very much Smurfett. Glad that you liked the piece :)
The Ego can be one powerful foe. So many people have come to identify with it and go through life swinging with their animosity and devouring with their need. Wonderful write, Anand.

So true, Anand. No great has be just "great" at everything. There is always success and an Achilles heel of some kind.
