STRAW

 

STRAW

 

Life sinks in the whirlpool quickly,

Save life instinctive spontaneously,

Every human let precious life quits,

Capture a floating straw or intuits, (1)

 

Imaginary hallucination activates,

Life struggle dangerous motivates,

Impending danger deadly surfaces,

Invisible helping hand save graces, (2)

 

Lesson for life, who helps get help

Drowning in swirling water shapes,

An unknown hand pulls up and saves a life,

Countless examples of escapes strife, (3)

 

Curse in life debt equally exhibits,

If fast enough drag persists,

How many lives were ruined in old houses,

Lost self-confidence scolds spouse, (4)

 

Condemned to street get sympathy,

Unknown yet kind heart empathy,

Straw in the flooding water capture,

Life sinking stays afloat yet enamor, (5)

 

Straw repudiates debt, the darkness,

Reality exists in the world impress,

Solve all problems debt-ridden heal,

Lessons to human, save happiness seal, (6)

 

Sinks life at failure vanish strength,

Crumbles castles in the air, lose breath,

Paradoxical miraculous hand help,

Help breathing smoothly, hopes shape, (7)

 

Human disco

vers the straw miracle,

Failed mission get success an angle,

Few are fortunate to get timely support,

Straw in the swirling water do escort, (viii)

Stood in the park twilight approach,

Octogenarian, a person sick search,

Desperate to return home, want help,

Hold his hand guide friendly shape, (9)

 

Leading a lonely life with no one to care,

Visiting him quite often owes share,

Watch his sickness necessity in love,

Human to human heart helps solve (10)

 

For him to treat me as the straw to live,

Hold my hand and start laughing, believe,

Perceived the straw, the divine grace,

Life is saved, caught tightly, soul trace. (11)
