THE BUS STOP

THE BUS STOP

A Poem by SAYED THANGAL
"

Bus stop is only a temporary spot, waiting to reach at a destination.

"
THE BUS STOP
Types various, colours different
To a zone, with strangers, taken away,
With passengers new, as waves to the shore
Lively again, to the stop, to get on the bus.
Busy and short, glad mixed gloomy
Plat form, temporarily to stay destined.
A testing spot to the stop next, the destination
Of immortality, truth and eternity
The span short, vague and uncertain 
Of time little to spend for others,
In between the two, birth and death
Forget to live, for the life here after.
Evaporated from the minds, the love
But thirst for blood, rebukes and revenges.
Remember, the bus's fast approaching 
For you too to get on.

Very good, Sayed. Yes, life is merely a bus ride to heaven and certainly a bumpy one along a very rough road, that crosses many raging rivers full of dangerous 'reptiles'!
We should all count our blessings, and realise how fortunate we are to be in such good care.
Most enjoyable, Sayed.

sure, no doubt.
A testing spot to the stop next, the destination

Of immortality, truth and eternity

The span short, vague and uncertain

Of time little to spend for others,

In between the two, birth and death

Forget to live, for the life here after.

Evaporated from the minds, the love

words to listen to and live by.

You are welcome:)
The poem is an interesting description of life, and what we do or don't do with it, nice use of metaphors.
