Meaning Of Life

Rating: 5.0


Omar could easily have said,
"If here with me
were a shady tree,
a book of verses,
a loaf of bread,
a jug of wine
and my singing Beloved,
this wilderness here
would have Paradise covered.'

Whether she was his wife or wasn't
ain't vital;
what is, is the wine
soon had him on to the title.

Life is just like a verse of book and we should read life carefully. Life has a greater purpose. This poem is very amazingly and brilliantly penned.
