ORCHESTRA PLAYS MUSIC OF LIFE





'O' is for Orchestra








 Orchestra of life:

Entwines multiple notes in life’s trajectory,
Etches, experienced moments in its cognitive memory.
The songs we sing the melodies we create,
Express subtle longings hard to assuage.


Uncertainties entangle us, doubts thrive,                
Yet, the pleasures of life we dearly prize.
Life is a challenge and a ceaseless struggle,
Where winning and losing are mere sly bubbles.


Life is like a rattle a mom gives her baby
To distract, to amuse or to ease colic pain may be.
How pitiful to sap the life force through grudges!
Why not hold to the floating vibrant nudges.

All said and done-
Our short sojourn is a wonder and a mystery,
Indecipherable, yes! yet possesses  a unique gift of curiosity.


Friends,welcome here as always!

  5. Lovely words to describe the journey of life! One of my favorite quotations says "Life is not a problem to solve, it is a mystery to experience." I believe that! Sometimes I think we work at it too hard, not realizing that all will eventually work out for us as it is intended.
