Life And Death

When you have come
you would have to go
Hence, live your life
like there's no tomorrow.

Be good to everyone
in the days that follow
not only to your loved one
but also to ones whom you don't know.

Do all your duties rightfully
have no guilt
Only then shall you live delightfully
in the home that you built.

Love everyone equally
have no ill will
Things settled with acrimony
could never let your heart fulfill.

For death is untimely
it waits for none
so shall you accept it happily
when it finally has to come.

Be happy with what you get
cause greed eats the greedy.
The rich shall sleep upset.
and sleep is granted to the needy.

As you walk the earth,
Make a place in people's hearts
Leaving behind people who know your worth
even after your soul departs.

Life is nothing but a cycle
if you come, you have to go
Give love and get it ample
SOw the seeds of wisdom for your future
generations to grow.
