Life's Cocoon

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL
Nobody is indispensable, so she says,
Yet everyone has  a specific space,
Remember your space is for now and forever,
Not one remained, Alexander, Socrates or the Buddha,
No one can remain alive forever,
It is only in the memory of those we touch in our life,
It is only that empty space that once was our fife,
The joy, the laughter,
The planning and the plotting,
The sincerity, the love,
The advice and the teaching,
That over empowering, selfless defense,
The little hen gathering her flock with vigilance!
LIFE WITHERS AWAY
No one is indispensable, truly said,
Yet people look for that touch, and the way you led, 
That reassurance that life goes on,
Come what may,
Everyone who is born dies one day,
They are missed, leave a void, they are not at all dispensable,
They live on in the hearts of those,
Who were touched by them and shepherded,
Into a cocoon of love, life and laughter well blended.

MEMORIES IN BLUE!

  1. Profound thoughts Varsha - maybe we often forget what you wrote to beautifully "They are missed, leave a void, they are not at all dispensable, They live on in the hearts".
    Truly our lives are all about touching hearts and shepherding all those we come in contact with into the space of love and remembrance!
    Well written Varsha

  2. Those we have loved and those who have loved us, never leave us. They become so much a part of our being, our thoughts, our action and our personality that we don't even realise how much we have integrated with them. Very deep thoughts Varsha but well expressed.

    First let me compliment you on the excellent Look of the blog page. The photographs are beautiful and your words flow easily. True, we are valuable beings, we are not dispensable. It is only when we ourselves realize our worth do we lead a good and authentic life.
