Which Is Immortal - Body Or Spirit? Poem by Ramesh T A

Desire cannot be restrained, Enjoyment of pleasure
Has no control and joy no one seems to be stoic to
Lose in life though life is not eternal to live here!

Animate nature of flesh, fowl and fish seeks sensuous
Pleasure as long as youth-hood is there in world life
And also all long for joyful pleasure to continue ever!

Animate nature of things long and indulge in temporary
sensuous pleasures not knowing the ever lasting value of
Spirit that can give joy ever through art and poetry..!

Many waste time in sensuous pleasure by trying to maintain
Youth not ever lasting instead of developing interest in
Art and Poetry full of spirit within alive ever beyond time!

Immortality of body is impossible, whereas immortality of
Spirit within art and poetry is possible to rely on forever!
