Life and Death

Life and Death{/b}

We died to totally live!
In life,
There are
hungry swirls of black holes that swallow lost stars.
There are rapacious storms and confused winds too
they siege the oceans to bend so many wild sea-corals
We died not to break a reef’s heart
We died not to destroy an octopus's nest


Here,
nothing disturbs the morning bird’s songs
the dance of pine trees
the wafting ancient breeze in the evening that kindly ripples the surface of the lakes

We died to dream not!
to not hurt
to bend not
We died not to despise any throat
We died not to bend flower by mistake.
