LEXICON OF LIFE

Image

 

Garlands may garnish neck

Nonetheless, it is stowage

Crowns may adorn the head,

But thorny to the sovereign

 

Lineage of survival says

The foot prints of the past

Laurels in the threshold

Peter out one day or another

 

Novice or No -wise

Experience moulds everyone,

Pedagogic the art to

Learn the lexicon of life.

 

The last garland falls one day

When world no longer bears

The chemistry of life is so sacred

We make it history

 

Enabling the inner mind

Evading jealousy, fury, desire

Perform the art of living

Where the realm of soul dwells.

  1. Of all your poetry, Lexicon speaks to me on a level unlike anything else. It is so clear and honest and without embellishment. Like another said here, “it unfolds so easily.” Truly beautiful.

  2. A wise man has found and appreciates my thoughts… A warmth washes over my soul, calming and vaguely cosmic. The consciousness grid is blooming, we’re weaving the seams with synaptic firings, a pyrotechnic display celebrating gratitude.

  3. Thank you, vigikumar, for following my blog. I hope you will enjoy it. Let me know from time to time what suggestions you might have. I am “all over the place” with my hobbies. I like your Lexicon of Life, especially the last two lines; they could be a poem all by themselves.
