Life by Madhavi Godavarthy

Life’s a journey from nothingness to nothingness … they say

But there is some ‘somethingness’ …

The flying butterfly of happiness
The soaring waves of hope
The falling star still holding a wish
The disappearing prism of a dew drop
The caressing petal of life’s baby palm
The echoing empty shell of a loved one’s death
A passing moment of quiet
The separating bond of a hug
The loosening embrace of a favorite song
The precious tear of a long standing friend
An inspiring moment from a wise book
The fading moments of life’s rainbow
The melting clouds of time in space
Threading these beads life offers a rosary
The pearls encapsulating time and timelessness…

Thank you Madam Rupradha for your response.
Your 'Lonesome' is very powerful and has 'someone' in it and I am sure that 'someone' will get the message.
