Life is like the double door, <br />Through one you walk IN <br />And through the other you GO! <br />Maintaining a balance in this continuous <br />flow ; <br />Or else the earth would be too crowded <br />for us to stand, <br />With no elbow room even to shake hands! <br /> <br />Like a river flowing in a continuous stream, <br />You hardly notice the changes within! <br />Yet you can never step into the same <br />water twice, <br />Remember the Greek Heraclitu’s advice! <br />Nature forgets an individual face, <br />It’s more concerned with continuance of <br />the human race! <br /> <br /> <br />(New Delhi/31 May 07)<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-double-door/
