Life As It Is

Noted Nest

Updated: Oct 5, 2024

By Sahana Navaneetha



Life is just a pothole of circumstances

I heard it softly say.

The little birdie feared to jump

But in the end it glided away.


Life is just a pothole of experience

The bunny said this

And off it jumped from this one to that

Into a puddle of persistence.


Life is a fate of drudge said the ant

But disagreed the elephant mother

"I've embraced the sun and sky eternally

I have served my purpose of living"


"Life has a stage of motherhood

And I embraced that too" she said.

"I've given birth to young limbs

Who will see the real world one day, soon.”


"Life is a sculpting pot

A beautiful one for each" she said

"But eventually it will break

What is the point of living" bawled the old ant


The wise old elephant said

"The process was beautiful

From the beginning till the

time it became dust"


"But in the end you lived

And that is enough"
