Life is a wisp, a wave, a kite, a bubble.......
WHAT IS LIFE? A WISP OF WIND...


What is life? A wisp of wind
In timelessness of time.
In a moment, it blows out
Just like a candle flame!

Life is a wave in the sea
Occasioned by the wind,
All the time running to shore,
Simply to crash away!

Life is a kite in the sky,
Held by a slender thread,
That snaps all of a sudden.
The kite gone with the wind!

Life is a pretty bubble
In colours resplendent.
But it's so ephemeral,
Lasting but a moment!

Life is a rubber balloon,
Playful and on the move.
Just a tiny prick and it
Bursts into nothingness!
