The death is reality <br />Real blessings from an almighty <br />We need not feel afraid <br />When about to be laid <br /> <br />It may turn sad <br />When lines are read <br />About last leg of an autumn <br />'The person is not to return' <br /> <br />The gloom descends <br />And sends <br />Some signal <br />Of arrival <br /> <br />Even though it is certain <br />Yet we maintain <br />Gloomy picture in mind <br />And try to find <br /> <br />Not even good knowledge helps <br />As death serves good slap <br />Person is reminded of final abode <br />Where he has to move and reside <br /> <br />Think or not <br />The battle is fought <br />Life comes to an end at time <br />When we are asleep or away sometimes <br /> <br />It is simple pause <br />Because <br />Life may take place elsewhere <br />To be known as birth somewhere<br /><br />hasmukh amathalal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/simple-pause/
