Life's Like A Wind!

All the life's like a wind!
What makes men merely day dreamers-
That which we claim'est most we do not own,
But what we dread'est becomes everyman's boss.
Life's like a caterpillar becomes a butterfly,
And where beyond grip and sight it may will'est fly.
.
All the life's like a wind!
And no man's art subdues its blow.
Nor through act the boss be dispossed.
Wisdom beckons every art and act to create a banquet,
And nurture this fading phase.
.
All the life's like a wind!
Why men's grief at a butterfly's flight for greener pasture?
But I, amidst mourners on duty,
Should envy that man whose rest has assumed a throne-
Not to outweep my depressed fate,
Since this state must one day decay.
.
For all the life's a wind-
We need no mourning whither it blows!

Powerful and honest words my friend.
"All the life's like a wind!
And no man's art subdues its blow.
Nor through act the boss be dispossed.
Wisdom beckons every art and act to create a banquet,
And nurture this fading phase. "
Men can fall and rise like the wind. A wise man is like the willow tree. Learn to flow with life the wind. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

You got my point my dear, we've got just to be doing that which Wisdon lies in- flowing with the life whither it blows. Thanks for your comment.

I love the repetition with the first line... it ties everything in together. You make some great points and everyones ends up decaying in the end... awesome write Bonaventure I enjoyed it :)

Your comment thrills me as it makes me to know that you did not just glance through the poem, you'd read and studied every line, to have known my major point.
