What's Life All About?

by Kulbir Bhalla



Here today, gone tomorrow, Some joy, more sorrow, I still have my doubt: What's life all about? I come of age On this stage, And before I know, It's time to go. Those who have gone, The ones who moved on, They never tell Where they now dwell. It's a puzzling drama Which not even a lama Can somehow comprehend, Or somehow transcend. So I run to you, Savor your view, Your smile and laughter, And forget about hereafter.

Life is all about seizing this moment and savouring it! Loved these lines:

It's a puzzling drama
Which not even a lama
Can somehow comprehend,
Or somehow transcend.

Great write, Kulbir! Kudos!
