Kalyan- Birthdays are Fun.




“Birthdays are fun, but too many can kill”

The gazelle gambols in the grass,
The circling kite glides through the air;
Without a worry crossing their minds
Life has a limit, they do not know,
And one day they have to die!

Men go through their mundane lives,
Chasing paltry things and petty ends
Without a worry crossing their minds
Life has a limit, although they know,
And one day they have to die!

Greetings on Birthday, they are pleased to get
Forgetting that every Birthday means
One step nearer to their final end;
Life has a limit, they do not remember,
And one day they have to die!

One would think that men would wear
The haunted look of the hunted prey
The sword of Damacles, the gene-set alarm
Frightening them with the perpetual thought
That one day they have to die!

But not this curious creature the Man
Fool or Philosopher, I do not know,-
Blithely he carries on, without a care,
Brushing away all fleeting thoughts
That one day he has to die!
