What Is Life

Rajni Mishra 1981 (Lucknow)



Life is what we live not we think of,
Life is what we achieve not we lose.
     It's meant for moving everytime;
     There is word like stopping in it.
     Each moment is worthwhile
     So live each day to its fullest.
Life is what we face not we feel,
Life is what enjoy not we waste .
      It's full of pain and pleasure
      Some times bitter, sometimes sweet
      Sometimes tastes even salty.
      So enjoy every taste of it.
Life is what we remember not we forget,
Life is what we create not we destroy.
       It's full of opportunities
       Makes us think about ourselves,
       It never hurts us until we want
       Values to be taken and evils forgotten,
      So walk on till the goal is achieved.
