SEIZE

 

SEIZE

 

Turbulent life sequel to face peril,

Unaware, the soul feels free, self reveal,

A dark cloud of fear worries horror,

Human life progress hunt mirror, (1)

 

Deeds accomplished ages ago lit,

Sleeping spirit, dream lays, a delight,

What not lay on the earth enjoy,

Childhood, youth, elderly age, a toy, (2)

 

Played thought enjoyed yet used,

When temptation ended amused,

Drink find poison, not nectar sad,

Eat satiate hunger fish nets mad, (3)

 

Home built over lifetime yet sold,

Family friends distanced life mold,

Dye for gold possessions forfeited,

Innumerable life story yet verified, (4)

 

Disastrous human lives, an accident,

Stays on bed habits stay incident,

No more trace, forgotten humans,

Found few escape unhurt scans, (5)

 

Nothing happens to them escape,

Disaster comes, escape, in good shape,

Survive surging waves pitter out,

Stand at their place, know, shout, (6)

 

Never aspire for money gold a lot,

Everything they have timely effort,

Keep repairing life, protect assets,

World laughs at their property bets, (7)

 

Tag foolish, ignorant, life unscrupulous,

Such people lead lives hilarious,

Visited hospitals surprised most,

These are wealthy people, life lost, (viii)

 

Fighting for life sick at home, sadly,

Sleepless night, drunk, angry, madly

Who do torture them, fail to discover,

Searched lifelong in vain sufferer, (9)

 

A villager lives a hundred years fine,

No food, dress, palace, life define,

Hard work peasant life continues,

The sight of a fisherman, bemuse, (10)

 

Catch fish happily, I discovered,

Fish below the boat saved erred,

Amazed thoughts seize solution,

Less material ambitious motion, (11)

 

Under the feet of fishermen, fish win,

Human life surrenders, a life define,

Time is a net catches wild mind stay,

Fails to catch, the soul Divine feet way. (12)
