Life: A poem by Dr. Sonia Gupta

A word that could not be understood until today
It has its own style and its own way
So many definitions, so many meanings it beholds
Life is a story that is totally untold!

Some call it a journey that moves on always
For some, it is an examination we have to cross
For some, it is a melodious song of happiness 
For some, it is a mourning cry of sorrows!

Some consider it a play stage where we all act
For some, it is a mirage of variable effects
A deep ocean with both pebbles and pearls  
Life is a myriad of variable hues and colors!

For some, it is blooming bed of flowers
For some, it is a path of thorns however 
For some, it is a struggle every moment
For some, life is to gain some achievement!

For some, life is a riddle unsolved ever
For some, it is a book with hidden chapters
For some, it is a cycle of death and birth 
For some, it is a wheel of pain and mirth!

Whatsoever, life is a wonderful blessing to us
Let us all enjoy it without making a fuss
Let us all get ornamented by this boon
We will cherish the world as heaven soon!
