Cycle Of Life Poem by Somanathan Iyer

Cycle Of Life

Rating: 5.0


Ends every life anytime after birth
departing time known to no one

myth to say freed is the soul after life
always a prisoner it is in the clutches of destiny

chased by fate never freed is the soul
together they tie the knot to usher an other life

anything may be the birth that give them asylum
in begetting by default a new mind and wisdom

pampered by fate mind knows no bounds
acts and deeds of its fattens the fate

remains dormant the wisdom mostly
making the soul sore and worried

countless are the births soul has gone through
endless are its efforts in prevailing over destiny

gleeful is the fate in chasing the soul
to make it undergo the cycle of life and deaths!

The cycle of life continues like water from the sea turns into clouds then it rains and goes back to the ocean. Nice couplets.
