Short is sweet

My surging tears , made an ocean deep

Life in flood, whether awake or asleep

What’s your lifespan, I asked marigold

It ends before starting, if plucked and sold

Life gives many occasions to celebrate

But to live is the biggest of all ,we forget

The land of my heart is so arid and infertile

They kept throwing seeds of love, just to pile

  1. “But to live is the biggest of all, we forget” This line resonates deeply with me. I think it is so true that we so forget about actually living, being the truest, authentic being possible, to experience aliveness in all of its forms – the sadness the happiness, all of it, as we are consumed with illusions of the mind. A beautiful poem, Reena. ❤️❤️
