What Would Have Been! Poem by Pijush Biswas

What would have been
If human beings had taken birth once
And never died?
I say, it could have happened-
Perhaps, the God might have not made us know
The mystery of creation.

What would have been
If human beings had lived rest of life
Eating once in life?
I say, it could have happened-
Perhaps, the God might have not urged us
To material work.

If it would have been,
There the life might have had no value
In this crooked world.
But He is sapient,
He utilized both the birth and the death,
And understood the need of eating and work
...so, He is the judge, best.
