Rebirth Poem by Om Chawla

Rebirth

Rating: 5.0


As is wont with all beings,
I foresee
a dark cloud descend on me,
to free this soul
from the bondage of being;
to be born again,
in some form, somewhere.
I pray O Lord; and be kind
to release this soul from the bind,
of birth and death and birth again.
If rebirth be thy command,
let this soul meander
through the cosmos;
amazing and awesome as it is;
and settle on some such planet,
where deceit is not practiced
and envy is banished;
where minds communicate in trust
and intentions are not doubted;
where love and not lust pervades
and truth subsists all around..
I have faith O Lord,
Thou have carved such a niche
in thy cosmos.
Is it heaven! Isn't it so. [2012]

Though this poem is a great write but i somehow felt your gloom about life in this....i may be too young to say such heavy words but i strongly feel that THE BEST WAY to lead a HAPPY LIFE s: ' FORGET those who HURT you yesterday, but DON't FORGET those who LOVE YOU EVERYDAY....

Did you know that only those people dies who do not want to learn anymore. If there are more lessons for you in this life you cannot leave yet. I am over 78, but I am like a child, every second brings me a new and newer study. I believe in the reincarnation story, but not on another planet. We are locked in here and more for you: What you see in others it is in you. It is up to how you handle this. In this case you represent for me the gloom about life, but I do my best to cheer you up, because I found true health, happiness and good living here and now. What is out there, I ignore and I know someday my world is changing for my outlook. We cannot control others, we can only control ourselves, to ignore and never to dictate. If you read more of my ideas, you might get a different glimp then you have now. Wishing you Gods best teachings, that you could find peace and contentment in happiness.
