Human Life, A Great Ocean by Debabrata Das

 

Human Life, A Great Ocean 

Human life, a great ocean-

    With multifaceted scopes to flourish,

Our big creations are but 

     Like wee water-drops of 

The vast ever expanding oceans;

       Unknown hidden secrets 

Are still ever shrouded under the veil,

      Yet not all are uncovered for ever 

And not ye all feel 'undone'!-

    Of having nothing left-

In vain crying - all been done !

    Swim down under the ocean 

Of thoughts with very subtle 

      Meditative and introspective instinct 

And thus find out very little 

    Bubbles , drifting all around you- 

Ever there being invisible, 

    But perceptible - with heart- sensible  

O, my dear, just pick them out 

   To utilise to the glorification 

Of the entire mandom and its mankind 

    The world will be yours for ever as ever.
