LIFE IN THE FOREST

 LIFE IN THE FOREST

Bewitched the soul name or fame,

Bestowed prosperity, life is the same,

Benign heart wears love and a smile,

Beautiful, the heart and mind drive, (1)

 

Bottom of the heart desires thrive,

Beacon of knowledge, life survives,

Begin the life path, serpentine way,

Bend quite often confusion, display, (2)

 

Below the mind, a myriad of thoughts,

Birth and death, mysterious, caught.

Bed of roses, path of thorns coexist,

Belief of humans walk worry resist, (3)

 

Bitter past the jungle life lost path,

Better days, sunrises, hopes worth,

Believe firmly to escape and settle,

Beseech the stability, a fate sparkle, (4)

 

Blind eye to honesty, truthfulness,

Bolt from the blue strikes distress,

Blood and salt, food and deed stay,

Batter mistake, repentance display, (5)

 

Blunders, commits human, in forests,

Besides perceptions rectify, corrects,

Bonhomie, a distant dream, solitary,

Branch out the treks or involuntary (6)

 

Begs for the mercy of the Lord to save,

Blissful feeling, a path, trees waving,

Bewilderment vanished, a mission,

Befriend challenges, determination, (7)

 

Beware of dark pit ferocious prowl,

Belittle fear precedes life, fox howls,

Between the horns of a dilemma run,

Bereft, life in the forest, victory won. (viii)
