Circle of Life!!!



How life begins for a child from a cradle
A tiny mortal, everything difficult to handle

 By holding a hand, child learns to walk
 With a great help later he learns to talk

A child always tries to seek attention
Always vying for more affection

We start accumulating wealth as we grow
Materialistic things to gather, not throw

Later we realize the futility
There's hardly any utility

We have been part of the rat race
Always running at a high pace

Only to return to the one room
All our achievements vanish with a boom

A very small space is needed for a child
So does an elderly person, a  life compliled

It's the reality of the circle of life
A stark reality, feel the vibe!!
