The Ho(r)ro(r)scope of Life

Ever heard about the scripts that seem to know our life The one that we seek when we have a mental strife They tell our story  that is to unfold Events that would shape our life until we get old When things are down we look for a glimmer of hope And what better way than to look for it through our horoscope Will the celestial objects align in our  favor? Can they shape future that i could savor? The future is usually predicted to be more pleasant Or is it just a relative comparison to the dark present But isn’t this present, future to a past!!! We may now know what future has in store And maybe also about the life before We may know about our Karma that led to this life And then about the stars and planets that cause strife But yet, all this knowing might not make life any better If anything, they might only make us more bitter After all, who wants to feel like a sitting duck Ruled by planets and controlled by Luck .

Life and Death

Is there a life after death, some wonder? But could there be a life without death, just ponder Why do we think it’s the roads end? While life is just taken through a sharp bend What do we loose, if there are no corners to turn Wouldn’t life be easier without having to mourn? Wouldn’t our lives be better with nothing to worry? How pleasant it would be, never to feel sorry Yet death is as real as reality can be Lurking in the shadows for you and for me Where there is shadow we know there is light It’s in the darkness we see that which is bright The end of the world to a caterpillar is the birth to a butterfly At the horizon, seems to begin the bright blue sky There is never a beginning without an end And life is always there waiting behind the bend Fear not the death and don’t try to hide For it’s on the death that life has its best ride
