PIPE DREAM
Twilight descends darkness thick,
Reminiscence overwhelms, yet trick,
Lone wolf, today, miss opportunity,
Obstinacy procrastination parity, (1)
Sunk in the ocean of sorrows, sad,
Distrust the world around forward,
Unambiguous inattentive errand,
Not a criminal lunatic, yet remand, (2)
It happened, like a bolt, from blue,
Encountered the sage, socked view,
The serenity, calm posture present,
Stood dumbstruck, surprise nascent, (3)
Failed to compare awestruck think,
Initiated to talk about his life, yet link,
Left his home from childhood way,
Connected with hermitage dismay, (4)
Strict life disciplined begging move,
An adult crossed the country prove,
Does not possess assets, property,
Radiance, knowledge, personality, (5)
Primal pleasure at youth instinct,
Luxury, comfort, wealth, distinct,
Those were pipe dreams, melted sad,
Run after gold life passed but mad, (6)
Anger, greed, jealousy, and overtake,
Worthless farced age life segregate,
Distrust the world human life sad,
Encountered the sage felt awkward, (7)
Yes, humans can dream, pipe dream,
Peace, happiness, rewarding stream,
Accompany the enlightened person,
Twilight years, loved transformation, (viii)
Discovered the pipe dream or light,
At the end of the tunnel, get sight,
Today, changed lifestyle, discipline,
Stays at home, practice, soul divine, (9)
No more lone wolf Lord's presence,
The objective of human life is immense,
Pipe dream unachievable experience,
Once rejected by people eminence, (10)
Never believed to be loved, admired,
Divine life daily practice due hired,
Attachment material things stream,
Benign divine life gold pipe dream. (11)
