Life - Worthless or Worthwhile

Alone, all alone,

He left his home,

Tired of life, without any hope

His future leaves him no scope


His need for money badly

Caused him to indefinitely borrow

But when help finally ran out sadly,

He wished to rid his life of sorrow


He had no ambition in life,

He neither had children nor a wife.

He had nothing which he could sell,

No story of his own which he could tell


He walked aimlessly till he reached the place,

Where were buried the dead

He looked at the mourning faces

And their looks had it all said.


He saw their hands raise

With teary eyes, to the sky in grace

They were mothers who longed for their dead sons

And the others who missed their dear ones.


He finally understood the meaning of life,

Which shouldn’t be destroyed by disgust or ire,

It was gifted to us from the Lord

And it shall be taken away at his desire.
