MY MULTIPLE ROLES <br /> <br />In this single life I try to play many <br />parts, all at once! <br />Trying to live many lives, with its <br />varying light and shade; - <br />As a husband, a father, a sincere friend; <br />As a poet, an artist and a medical man, <br />Trying to perform the best as I can! <br />Aspiring to feel and live life, <br />Through its various facets and being; <br />Like an actor in plays, in their multiple <br />roles and scenes! <br />Where some get applauded and <br />remembered, <br />While others are soon forgetten; <br />To be buried in the depths of darkness, <br />Like those unclaimed bodies, <br />With none to shed tears over their <br />graves! <br />Yet the totality of these varied <br />experiences, <br />Add colour, flavour, and perhaps <br />some meaning and sense, <br />To our mundane earthly existence! <br />As we inhale the invigorating fragrance <br />From the myriad blossoms in the <br />breeze of life, <br />Which the succeeding seasons forever <br />bring! <br /> <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> New Delhi <br /> 26 Jan 08<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-multiple-roles/
