She told me once ,
“ buy this , it got fragrance too ,
it burns and makes the surroundings fragrant too”.
I took and kept that very close to me ,
Back home , I lit the candle carefully .
Oh! how bright and beautiful ,
The illuminous hues it gave .
when all of a sudden
I realized how much it had to say ,
All that she had to convey .
It said “ iam life,
once out of the womb and you see the hues .
grow as I day by day ,
wax lowers low .
how u live ,what u do
fragrance tells all about you .
one can feel the fragrance of your deeds ,
people know how well u did .
burning and toiling hard .
one night a light whiff of air comes ,
and blows me off .
no matter what good or bad u do ,
fragrance behind unravels all myth about you.
what is left after life-long clamour ,
is placid ,calm ,tranquil pleasure forever.

Oh, my dear, this is so lovely. Yes, I do believe that our essence after we leave this world does stay behind us in the deeds we have done in the children, friends and loved ones we cherished. Our spark of life never truly burns out. I believe that just our body dies. Our personal spark never does. This is so well stated, Bhanvas.
Rainbows to you,
Rita |
